Never Get Yo Cornbread Made
LN jg1995-01-13.jgb.all.aud-vasseur-ladner.21484.shn2flac I almost never listen to 1995. I mean to. And then I did. But then, it turns out that I had already listened to the second set of this show, so the novelty factor was reduced by half. On the flip side, the “study in contrasts” possibilities are wide; in this case, it…

I stand corrected: it is that bad

Nine days after kicking off a lucrative little acoustic tour with the D.A.R. in D.C., Garcia and Kahn closed things off at the Orpheum in Boston.

Black Roots about Native Americans?
I am thinking about Native American musical influences on Garcia. As far as I can tell, they are mediated by whites: Hank Williams’s “Kaw-Liga,” Bill Monroe’s “Cheyenne,”Peter Rowan’s “Land Of The Navajo” (which the latter inspired). Is there any black traditional music with Native American narrative or musical themes? Like, any old banjo tunes about…

On December 8, Garcia was at Front Street working on Dead Set when get got a call that told him of the assassination of John Lennon. Work was impossible. He sat down at Keith Godchaux‘s old Steinway (more pain: Keith had died in a car accident that summer) and noodled for many hours, lost in…
