  • GarciaLive volume 4: March 22, 1978

    http://www.musictap.net/2014/05/29/tapsheet-release-notes-05292014-us-report/ ATO Records will release Garcia Live, Volume 4: March 22nd, 1978 Veteran’s featuring Jerry Garcia Band. The set will be released on 2CD on July 8. This is great news! I hope the liner notes are informative, and I can’t wait to hear it.

  • March 23, 1975 – Jerry Garcia Interview

    I don’t know who the interviewer is, nor the radio station from which this particular recorded. It is the first track of shnid-126296. This is the interview Jerry gave before the SNACK Benefit at Kezar Stadium. Sounds like reading the newspapers around the time of the show will prove interesting, mismanagement of budgets by bureaucrats…

  • JGB: June 23, 1977: Benefit Concert for the Survival of the Forest Community of Camp Meeker

    On Thursday, June 23, 1977, Jerry Garcia Band (JGB) out-of-pattern early and late shows at Santa Rosa High School. High school gigs were pretty unusual for Garcia at any point (beyond early Grateful Dead), but by the late 1970s it almost always meant that there was some personal connection, somehow, to Garcia. For example, Garcia-Kahn…

    https://jerrybase.com/events/19720325-03 Bo Diddley, Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir: Saturday, March 25, 1972, Hells Angels Benefit at the Academy of Music, New York, NY. I sure feel inept not knowing more about this venue. I assume it’s the one at 126 14th Street, New York, NY? I am basing that on this random bit of info…

  • Garcia, Gravenites, Jules Broussard: ca. 1973, San Quentin Prison

    **update: I have it in my mind that this never happened. I spoke with Nick the Greek once and seem to have come away with that idea** On 4/29/90, Garcia sat in with “Nick Gravenites and Animal Mind” for a Brian Wilson Defense Fund Benefit at the South of Market Cultural Center in San Francisco.…

  • GD/NRPS: November 23, 1970, Anderson Theatre (Hells Angels Benefit)

    –> Crossland, Chip. 1970. Hells Angels Presents The Grateful Dead. East Village Other v1, n1, pp. 10-11. Publication info from my copy uncertain. I believe I got this from Joey Newlander. There was no publication information, but the reference, which comes from Deadlists, is probably correct. Pretty hilarious write-up. My only real purpose is to…
