Already knew there were greats out there and am one of the "clowns" that donates regularly for awesome music, but have a new found respect for these guys hearing their personal stories.

Good work, GG! Nice piece. Great characters.

Gauthier,  well done!  The stories are original, fresh.   The story-telling: simple and true.   You nailed the levels with the nat sound of music under the soundbites.   Your pacing was very good on the narrative.  I took notes on specifics, not for this public location.  I signed in to this "cloud" so I could publicly applaud your creative work here.   You hustled to gather lots of sound---even from show auditions.   As always,  you make me proud.

The quality enhancement is due in large part to one band's drive and innovation. CBS News Correspondent Jim Chenevey reports on how the Grateful Dead paved the way for modern concert sound.
