Thanks and I agree.
The result of my internal moral compass was and continues to be:
A pox on both your houses (Capitalism and Communism),
The moral compass reveals a need to examine data for myself and reject the MSM's trumpeted trash,
i.e. to refuse to give away the right to do my own thinking.
I still enjoy Grateful Dead Music almost everyday but am not now nor ever was a deadhead as you attempted to redefine the term, deadhead.
Deadhead Fan of good music.
Slander dies on the ashes of the lie.
Read not to contradict and confute;
nor to believe and take for granted;
nor to find talk and discourse;
but to weigh and consider.

Not to put a knock on the Dead (sniff) but by 1970 the two best rocknroll bands out of the SF Bay Area weren't psyche at all.

There was a lot of good music coming out in 1970. After i thought i was too good to listen to some of it i came back to it years later.
It holds up as they say.

Circa '72 Bob Dylan said Thunders was his favorite musician.
Speaking of Dylan and proto-punkers it doesn't get any more punk rock than this
Newport '65 first song of the set!
Let's get it straight folks -- this is not "folk rock" it's pure proto-punk-rock!
Recognize!
(Added on edit): Barking vocals by Dylan ripping short guitar leads by Mike Bloomfield of (...wait for it) San Francisco.
Barking vocals, confrontational lyrics, fast-tempo, short sharp guitar leads...punk rock, dude.

While Ed Sanders is known for his work on the Manson family he also recorded an album "Sanders Truckstop" that is a real gem from that period.

Kool,Dylan goes punk at Newport.And,with the blues guitar of the legend Mike Bloomfield.I once read where Bloomfield was so loaded on smack that he played his whole show laying on his back...He eventually self-destructed.
How about some Boz Scaggs......This song was edited out of the movie "Last days of the Fillmore".

We saw them in Chicago in '69
This ended their set
Crowd on seats
Blackout
Exeunt Stones
That Leo on the leotard
The fashion statement in Lincoln Park was the wet bandana
around the smoldering police barricades
garbel-dee-barking voice gun
and bang they're on the run
that whole short-livved krystallnacht thing
damped by the board-up men with their saws and trucks and
Daley's police army won the round
Bill and Mark's anticlimactic adventure
"What do I think!" answered the man in the restaurant
"I think they should be in jail, that's what I think!"
Now Rahm begs the Heartbreakers eschew the children
See the revolution
Expectations
Blow up
