Truckin' by the Grateful Dead



I'm not a big Dead fan in the present, though I did attend a fair number of shows when I was in college in the early '90s. I was a suburban version of hippie, but never went super hard-line (i.e. wore Birks and tie-died shirts; did not cultivate dreadlocks nor wear patchouli oil). I was always amused by the spinners at the shows, and at that time in my life, certainly appreciated the enticing atmosphere for being high. Truckin' is one of those Dead songs that neither thrills me nor annoys me; it's alright.
