Jerry Garcia’s Name-Claiming Journey Beyond the Grateful Dead

  • JGMS: May 25, 1971 Keystone Korner: new to The List

    San Francisco Chronicle, May 24, 1971, p. 42. Garcia and Saunders listed for Tuesday, May 25, 1971 at Keystone Korner. New to The List. More color around Friends and Relations and the Tuesday Fillmore West auditions.

  • JGMS: Matrix, May 11-12, 1971

    There is a great half-hour tape labeled as Garcia-Saunders at the Matrix, May 11, 1971. I had always thought it was a little suspect, as I had never seen any other corroborating information, though it is listed at the Chicken’s Matrix List. This calendar listing from the San Francisco Chronicle (May 10, 1971, p. 45)…

  • JGMS: December 27-28, 1972 – Lion’s Share

    San Francisco Chronicle music listings, December 27, 1972, p. 44. Garcia-Saunders-Fogerty at the Lion’s Share in San Anselmo, December 27-28, 1972, as listed in San Francisco Chronicle, December 27, 1972, p. 44. Both the Hayward Daily Review and Berkeley Barb at various points listed Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show, contrary to circulating Garcia-Saunders tape…

  • David Nichtern and the Nocturnes

    http://www.concertvault.com/david-nichtern/record-plant-november-09-1974.html What an interesting looking little fragment. I wish I could hear it. In All GSCBF All The Time news, I suspect that Nichtern hooked up with his band, including Hot Band pedal steel player Hank Devito, as well as Nicolette Larson, through the GSCBF. They were all there.

  • JGMS: June 11, 1974 Keystone Berkeley – new to The List

    So here’s a new one for The List: JGMS at Keystone on Tuesday, June 11, 1974. But note, too, that Merl is playing Sand Dunes on Monday the 10th – this could very easily be a Monday on which Garcia sat in. The fact that Tony Saunders played with Merl and Jerry the week prior…

  • JGMS October 5, 1972 – Keystone – new to The List

    I have Friday and Saturday shows in The List, but this Thursday listing is new to me.

  • Fragments

    Look at how my eye focuses – I want the listings big enough to read, and I want the publication information along with them, if possible. That’s the scanning area I created and captured here. Look what gets cut, “on the margins” of my view, you might say. Besides the adult theaters, there’s some Maya…

  • Linkage

    Was just enjoying Dead Sources on the nightmare scenario that unfolded at Georgetown on 10/23/70, and appreciating LIA’s work curating this material. There is so much out there, I cannot keep up! Thanks, LIA, for putting this stuff out there. Having the texts directly available is invaluable. I wanted to riff from that and urge…

  • Color: Rod Stewart ” pawing the floor like a lustful stallion”

    at the 8/30/72 Rod Stewart and Faces gig at Oakland Coliseum, per Chronicle music critic Dennis Hunt (SFC 9/1/72, p. 48).
