Can't Come Down by the Grateful Dead. Recorded on November 3, 1965 at Golden Gate Studios.

Information about the video: I edited it some, but the original is from Archive.org. This was the description there... "Hippie Marbling: An art form rooted in the 1960's and a look at one of its eccentric pioneers. Read article with stills here: http://noendpress.com/caleb/marbling/" and "5 minute video of Cove creating large format marbled fabrics in Berkeley, CA during the early 1970s using the roof of a VW bus."

Enjoy!

I love how much Phil's voice breaks through in those early days. Friggan Donna had to come aboard to take over the high singing. Not cool donna, not cool.

Reminds me of Dylan's subterranean homesick blues. The paint technique is called marbling:)

Was this song recorded both under The Warlocks and The Dead? I've seen it labeled as both before. I know sometime in 1965 is when they became the Dead

Nope, when they made this they had I believe just started calling themselves the Grateful Dead, this was made in '65, along with Mindbender and The Only Time Is Now.

Action painting is more like Jackson Pollock.

"orbis" is the proper term, it's a ancient persian technique. everyone can do this, just but some oil soluble colors in a "pit" of water, mix it carefully with a stick, lay a paper or tissue (or anything, the persians also "dyed" pottery with it), on it and carefully lift it.
