When the song started i sat there for the first 20 seconds wondering " Am i high or is the picture spinning" Its been confirmed that yes i am high and yes its spinning

Dear youtube never, ever, ever interrupt China - Rider with a commercial. It's music blasphemy!

I play this for my three month old baby boy and he smiles and kicks his legs and flails his arms. He loves it. I’m so happy.

Grateful Dead makes me so happy. This is what summer sounds like.

When i was 15 years old, and me and a friend had bought a tab of acid each, we reclined in my living room at the time, as my parent had been out of town for that whole weekend, we reclined on the couch, and when this song started to play my trip and his began, i'll never forget that balmy summer night, and the amazing time we had. It changed my life forever, and my head became forever dead :)

I wish I was a headlight, on a North bound train; I'd shine my light through cool Colorado rain Absolutely beautiful line ☮️ ❤️ 🎶

Can't count how many times I've listened to this song; live or on audio, but I'll never, ever fall out of love with it.

The Allman Brothers Band and the Greatful Dead were touring together back in late 1972. They were playing in Houston and I had front row seats. Berry Oakley had just died two days before the concert and the Allman brothers had cancelled this show. The Grateful Dead showed up and played the entire set by themselves. I was not that big of a fan of the Grateful Dead until that night. The played for over four hours straight. It was incredible.

To be honest...this is the best bridge to another song ever. There are a few that are just as good but nothing...and I mean not a one is better. Happy birthday Jerry. You are missed.

Danced near Bob Weir for the entire concert, onstage at Porchester Theater in 1969 two nights in a row and spent the entire time with the Band. So sweet. I'm 70 now and that experience made me a different person in too many ways to describe. Let's just say that the Grateful Dead are my happiest moments in life.

China cat is one of the best examples of music know to man

I love Jerry's lead work, but Bob knows every chord ever made. I love the rhythm guitar.
-

Man this was literally sacred vinyl in the university dorms back in 1973 - what wonderful memories.
-
This song reminds me off that time when I was at some place or something.
-
This is the best version that I'm aware of. Pure psychedelic fury.
-
I love the Grateful Dead more and more every day. Simply put, finding them was the best thing that has ever happened to me. Thank you guys for enriching my life more than i ever thought was possible.

The transitions from China Cat to Rider during this era were always amazing.
