The song debuted August 18, 1970 at Fillmore West in San Francisco.

Ripple by The Grateful Dead. Ripple appeared on the Dead’s 5th studio album, American Beauty which was released in 1970. This folk song is such a simple, laid back tune but yet such a good one too. Definitely a song that you just want to jump in and sing along.
