How much do you know about the Grateful Dead? Take this quiz to find out<\/p>\n
\n\tWhen the Grateful Dead<\/a> started back in 1965 as the Warlocks, they were just another Bay Area band riding the wave of the psychedelic scene. But 60 years later, their legacy is still going strong. They survived lineup changes, decades of relentless touring, and the devastating loss of Jerry Garcia<\/a>. Their music and the community it fostered live on through projects like Dead & Company and Bob Weir\u2019s Wolf Bros, and an endless stream of archival releases that keep old shows alive for new ears. Along the way, the Dead have attracted one of the most devoted fan bases in music history, from tie-dye-clad veterans to fresh converts introduced to their music by John Mayer. To find out how deep your Dead knowledge goes, take our definitive Grateful Dead quiz.<\/p>\n \n\tZero to 30 percent correct: Hey now, there\u2019s no shame in being a newbie. We recommend you start listening to American Beauty and Workingman\u2019s Dead. After that, let Europe \u201972 and Live\/Dead show you why people followed this band for years. When you\u2019re ready to dip your toe in the deep end, check out Cornell 5\/8\/77, which many call the band\u2019s greatest live performance. The Dead\u2019s history is a long, strange trip, so take it slow and soak it in.<\/p>\n \n\t31 to 60 percent correct: Not bad at all. You\u2019ve clearly spent some time listening to the records and maybe even know what a \u201cScarlet\/Fire\u201d is. You\u2019re just a few live shows and a YouTube rabbit hole away from expert status. To dig deeper, check out Rolling Stone senior writer David Browne\u2019s So Many Roads<\/a>, watch the 2017 Amazon documentary Long Strange Trip, and read the Rolling Stone interviews<\/a> with Jerry<\/a> Garcia<\/a> and Bob Weir<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n \t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n \n\t61 to 100 percent correct: Congratulations! Even if you weren\u2019t there at the Fillmore East shows in 1970, you are a real Deadhead. You know \u201cDrums\/Space\u201d is not the time to go to the bathroom, the difference between Dick\u2019s Picks and Dave\u2019s Picks, and your Brent from your Keith.
