  • A Second Hooteroll?

    In reporting that Epic/Columbia Custom Records and Douglas Records had re-upped on their distribution deal in spring 1972, Cash Box noted that one expected piece of product was “an encore of the collaboration between Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia and keyboard man Howard Wales”.

  • Wales/Hooteroll influence on GD?

    All Hooteroll All The Time (AHATT) is an interesting idea that could be elevable to a core principle, i.e., to the effect that Hooteroll is “Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last” (Revelations 22:13, King James Bible version). 🙂 I won’t go into that here.

    Howard Wales and Jerry Garcia (HWJG) is another one of these things about which I have a great deal to say, but no time to get it down except in dribs and drabs. So be it. Quick question or two on the January 1972 east coast tour they did, Jerry’s first non-GD-related paying gigs in…
