LN jg1977-07-09.jgb.late-2.aud-strange-miller.124426.flac1644 Not a whole ton to say, not a ton of time, so I’ll just bullet. Donna is absent. I wonder why?

JGB: November-December 1977 East Coast Tour Rarities
1977 The Jerry Garcia Band (JGB) was formed in 1975 to be a professional recording and touring band, and in productive years the Band would do a late-year East Coast tour. I’d guess the germ of this tradition formed in 1973, when Garcia and Saunders played the Hell’s Angels Forever gig on the S.S. Bay…
