[Grateful Dead @GratefulDead]

Remembering famed lyricist and Grateful Dead member, Robert Hunter, on what would have been his 85th birthday today. From iconic tracks like "Althea" to lesser-known beauties like "Clementine," his contributions to the Dead's catalog run deep. Drop your favorite Hunter song or lyric in celebration of the great wordsmith today.

Muhammad Ali visiting Bob Dylan backstage at Madison Square Garden during the star-studded Night of the Hurricane benefit concert, December 8, 1975. Photo by Ken Regan. This concert served as the grand finale for the first leg of Dylan's legendary Rolling Thunder Revue tour. The entire star-studded night was organized to raise legal funds and national awareness for imprisoned middleweight boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter. Dylan had recently dropped his fiery, cinematic protest track Hurricane to fight for Carter's freedom. Muhammad Ali was a massive supporter of the cause and showed up to support the movement.

[Jerry Garcia @jerrygarcia]

Hard not to love these Stanley Mouse portraits from the back cover of Workingman’s Dead, which came out 56 years ago today. Mouse photographed each member individually in his studio, then airbrushed the portraits freehand using those photos as reference. Which one’s your favorite?

This song was pretty much everywhere in 1994

Never seen this before - Neil Young in rehearsals for the Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary Celebration doing "Forever Young" solo on pump organ and harmonica. Wow!

(When the camera zooms out at the end you can see a young Eddie Vedder looking on)

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, photographers for the New York Post were sent scuttling around the city on the hunt to capture newsworthy moments—politics, sports, sometimes art, and, because it was the Post, mostly crime and celebrity. Martha Cooper was one of those photographers. But some of Cooper’s most impactful work emerged from the shots she took in between those assignments, often of abandoned lots, trash and rubble, and scenes of children playing and passing the time outside. These photos recall classic Tenement-era images of city dwellers making the most use of the city around them. See more of Cooper’s work: https://t.co/oPQaSEVcgj

21 years ago, Roger Federer pulled off a shot that left Andre Agassi speechless.

[Jerry Garcia @jerrygarcia]

Happy anniversary to Compliments, released June 6, 1974. It’s a covers record on paper, and the fun is hearing Jerry turn each track into something unmistakably his. Chuck Berry, Smokey Robinson, Irving Berlin, Van Morrison, the Stones, Peter Rowan, and one Kahn/Hunter original all get pulled into Jerry’s orbit. Which song do you come back to most?
