I just listened to Jerry Garcia and am healed. I'll be okay!
Just listened to a Duane Allman interview, where he said Jerry Garcia was an INCREDIBLE HUMAN and that he CARED AND LOVED EVERYBODY. This performance fills me with so much love, if youre reading this I LOVE YOU
Max Kappy right back at ya brother :)
Back atchya pal
I reflect your love and amplify it.
omg! a gaggle of sappy lovin’ loonies!
@@jimiamfirshur4778 the best KIND, my main man.
if you are hearing this, consider your ears to be oh so sweetly privileged
I would def heart and or whole life react to that if youtube had more than a thumbs up
If i had none i would steal your ears
I hear it, love it
If I told you all the things that went down in this show, it'd burn off both your little ears
Blessed
How Jerry can break my heart and mend it, just the same.
Wonderful comment
Right?
Agree
So do I
Jerry is like a soulmate.. Understands it all
Jerry's music leaves a warm glow in every soul it touches. There will never in time be another to replace this beautiful human. ✨

Thank You!
🙏
Thanks Devon, bigtime -- 19:05 'you're a good upstanding man, a credit to the Flock...'
Thank you very much🙏🏻🤗😊
Thank you!
Jerry has more soul than words can express.. i'm just happy to have been alive while star dust created him for us to enjoy :)
He was a gifted and blessed human being......
Well said .... here’s to Jerry and The Grateful Dead
🍻
Jerry could not play a single note on the guitar even at two or three years old. He probably couldn't play a chord at six years old. Eventually though, the mass of stardust got around to practicing.
@@howardrobinson4938 I do not even know how to respond to you - I did not know Jerry when he was small; but I absolutely love him in his songs.....
@Robert Weir You said that right - I love watching his expressions, his eyes, his love of his band & playing his guitar ! I absolutely love his voice, too - it is like he is singing straight to me, my heart & soul.
There are better vocalists and cleaner guitar players, but none of that matters with Jerry, he touches the soul like nobody else...I miss him so much, there will never be anyone better,
the One and Only Jerry Garcia :) NFA
I'm a west coast head. Went to alot of shows from '76 til the end. I never heard of this one and I thank whomever it was that put this on the Internet. Great stuff and yeah, the Going Going Gone is a helluva thing. I miss Jerry. 23 years? or some such and I never said that before. Guess its just I miss my old life. Seeing ya'll on shakedown was a great thing. I was never more me than at a show. Got married and raised a family after Jerry passed. Crazy that I chose a woman who never gathered around a fire with a song or a dance. I guess that's too much info and she divorced me anyway. Better than being dead though. What the fuck. Crazy life. Picking up my guitar and putting the rest to song. Would love to say I'll see ya ll on tour .
Amen
I hope the song you played tasted sweet. Not all those that wander are lost friend
from what I understand he was uncomfortable playing completely solo
In my stupid opinion. The best Garcia ever. No band. A man and his guitar😁goin...
Ur not the only dire wolf
That vulnerable voice and playfully unpolished picking style just never gets old to the ear.
Voice of an angel with words that walk the roads of time
@Bradley Fisher
You took words out of my mouth - GOD Bless you
this is either some of jerrys finest guitar work ever or it’s just much more noticeable being acoustic and all alone. either way, just incredible.
Never heard this till this morning I f#%€n lθve it I love
It's always been one of my favorite recordings. I would LOVE to some day find some video of this !! To watch his fingers do that excellent playing with such awesome tone
The only acoustic only solo Garcia shows, I believe. The story I heard is they were called the IRS shows because they figured out all the sudden that nobody had been keeping proper records and he had not paid any income tax and he owed a shit ton of money so he went out and play these shows to make it up real quick like.
I absolutely love when he plays acoustic. I love how he'll just bust into Solo⁸s when there's no other instruments in the background playing accompaniment or maybe it's just a bass. I love that. I do that because of him
such a timeless voice even after 33 years of listening.
And timeless guitar playing !
I started listening to the dead in 92. My mom had died and I just wouldn't talk to anyone. One of my moms old hippie friends came in and tossed me a double cassette tape. He said exactly " listen to this" it was Europe 72. I seen them twice at the end and I'm still jamming
@@direwolf8124 Thank God u listened & loved it, so do I
jerry can stand so still!
very funny :)
the internet scores again
Fatz Treeboy we u
yeah, thats definately a point for the net , thanks to all and jerry....
I love Jerry acoustic even better than the Dead. A talented man, gone too soon!
bu he will live for ever
I couldn't understand why all of college roommates loved the Dead so much. I wouldn't join them on a couple of late shows because I didn't want to be the only one not doing acid.
In hindsight I should have because my first show wasn't until 1981. Missed Ithaca, Buffalo and a few others.
I must admit I was a bit of a Jazz snob at this point on my musical experiences. Obviously grew up in the early seventies with lots of great rock, then Dylan but I was lost. Probably due to all the bootleg tapes and the less than ideal stereo sound I was used to.
Sorry if anyone has gotten this far, but my first Dead show was almost religious especially my feelings about Jerry. I was blown away. Unfortunately he died way too young 😔
I will say that he's definitely my favorite musician of all time. Love all his solo as well as the JGB and all of his other collaborations.
Thanks for posting this solo treasure!!!
Read this and felt this peace brother one love 🎸🌈✌🏼
well, then...did you ever do the acid??
Deep thanks to NoNgu, truly a credit to the Flock!

You're doing the lord's work. If the "lord" was a ragtag crew of no'ordowells and no-good-niks who refuse to take the time. This IS a compliment, thanks Sheppard!
Thank u a lot for the songs, we appreciate u
Add this man to my Facebook friends & to a friend of mine that just started a Facebook account Alexander Bookman - he also shares music - thank u in advance- Jerry will always live on as well as we play his music.
Rubin & Cherise is a love song, isn't it?
I need a ripple recharge thank u
I was there with Steve and Kathy the hood on the MG flipped up on the highway I thought we were going to die Anyway we made it there fell into a local bar where Rick Danko was drinking heavily and he was the opening act Some good old deadheads carried Rick to the Capitol Theater and we made our way soon thereafter and it was an amazing show we didn't know how good we had it. God bless Jerry Garcia may he and Rick Danko truly rest in peace, LOVE❤❤❤
This is a great anecdote, thank gosh you shared this. Love it!!!
❤
This continues to prove why I regard Jerry as the greatest guitarist ever. Certainly my favorite. I have been playing guitar for over 30 years, and I put Jerry over SRV, Hendrix, Clapton... all of them. His acoustic work was equal to or better his electric work. He also, on electric, had the absolute best sense of melody to contribute with his fills.
Me too - GOD Bless you
I wouldn't say he's technically the greatest by any sense, especially when considering the REALLY great guitar players like Wes Montgomery, Charlie Christian, Tony Rice, etc but Jerry certainly had soul and played with an emotion that very few have ever rivaled. What he lacked in virtuosity he certainly made up for it by being a stellar melodic player that knew how to perfectly emote with his instrument in a way that accompanied his voice so well. He's the perfect example of how it's not the passage/phrase being played, but how one plays it that matters. One will never hear a Jerry lick and think it is anyone else, that's for sure. For that, he's my favorite guitarist.
Ever heard Paco Deluccia? He's the most amazing acoustic player that's ever lived.
Exactly
Not to mention the guy coukd sing and put you in the story like a book from the cowboy days s to the 90s.. ..Jerry was the man..
The sing me back home, China doll, and Gomorrah are all played best acoustically in my opinion I’m so glad he was feeling them all on this night 🙏🏽
Geezus I miss him. He has enriched my life.
@Andrew Black
Me too
I miss him like family
Never a human being has lifted my spirit so high, and left me right where I want and need to Be. No gurus, writers, poets or else. He gave himself to all of us that like to ride on the Bus. I m so grateful that words can't express. My heart is filled with love and softness when he sings and I don't care if I'm alive or death anymore
@Jan Budin You said it well - God Bless to you & Jerry Garcia
This show has so many bittersweet memories attached to it. I was listening to it, in my car, on August 9, 1995, before the bad news hit the wire. I was going to 30 or 40 shows every year between 1991 and 1994. I had a collection of over 1000 CASSETTE TAPES and DAT. But THIS show held a special place in my heart. Going going gone... the amazing solo... the way he sings it... it'll make you cry if you're in the mood, haha! The Early show has the BEST Valerie I've ever heard.
carljw316smp glad to know. I listen to Jerry, Weir🤗😋or JohnMayer every day. I m into it.
Big time/:)
I did a lot of shows during that time period as well. I remember exactly where I was when the announcement hit the radio. My husband taped a lot of the shows, so I have hundreds of DATs too.
carljw316smp
This show is pretty much that almost same or the same completely..? Because I haven't finished this.. but anyway, THE Prison Record.. although he wasn't totally solo, this reminds me of that.. lol.. u pick in dat up? Lol.
But I agree! Def the feeling..
I love this Ruben
And while we're at it,
When I heard the news, I followed the SF Mayors requests that the city should fully tie die flags out front of ur home and establishment..
So I hung up a died shirt up on our flag pole on our front porch for a week!
I had forgotten that.. thanks..
Ps.. the morning of 'the news, We had woken to a massive aftermath of a storm that flooded pretty bad.. I'll never forget that....wake of the flood...
This is the definition of “Pure Jerry “ I can listen to this all day and twice on Sunday’s !!! Ffing beautiful!! Tiwwd
love his voice. Broken and beautiful.
@TheRichPersonsDigest I agree about his voice, how his dialect & pronounce his words, his expressions, his eyes & his love of his band - should I say anything else? I know i am biased - love this man!
Jerry is a helluva drug. I love the righteous buzz I get from hearing his music be oh so good to my ear hole.
BwahhhAHHaaa I couldn't agree more !! Jerry top 3 performer for the ages. Couldn't even fathom who the other 2 could be.. janis, hendrix, morrison?
@@chetgibson267 frank Zappa :)
fortnite does the same for me
When I get in the mood I feel like poor me as selfish as that is.. I put this concert on and remember how lucky I am to have spent the same time on this rock as Jerry. Thank you very much Jerry for taking the time to help us with your music
Jerry Garcia died and went through the black hole in space, where enlightened souls go, came through the other side as God of All things Good, the Dionysus of interplanetary space as it were. When I listen to Jerry, he takes me through the worm hole there to his celestial plane and back again, feeling every emotion along the way. To think, I used to dislike The Dead and didn't see or hear the message. We all grow up, we live and we die...Find Joy. Thanks Jerry!
Amen!
I really like what you said about Jerry - sounds so deep - just like him - he was ahead of his time!
@white Anstraight love what you said about Jerry
@@carolinacreepers3125 I second that emotion!
Jerry simply can't stop getting more people on the bus
TheSenhorMister true! 2018 and he’s still getting folks on board. what a ride!
I got onto it just last year..haven't looked back since!
2017 his music and as my brother put it "welcome to Jerry's church" got me on the bus, havent looked back since 💚🙏💚
Been on the bus since '85 and I'm not looking to depart anytime soon. I'm riding it to the end of the line and I welcome any and all passengers. Come aboard my friend and have a seat.... The scenery is beautiful and the soundtrack is all you'll need
@@darinhill3773 85 had some nice moments! I remember some Riverbend, Blossom and some cold ass Rochester!
Who in the fuck would dislike this! It is perfection. Jerry in his prime. He isn't the best at what he does, he is the only one who does it
I think you mean, "Not only is he the best at what he does, he is the only one who does it." A paraphrase of Bill Graham.
"he's the only one that does what he does"
Heard the same thing many years back from Pierre Robere(forgot the spelling but pronounced ro' bear. Dj for WMMR in Philly. Anyway, I concur
Precisely! Anyone any everyone that EVEN dislikes daddy can FUCK RIGHT ON OFF!! Fuck you and the horse you came in on!
Who cares who dislikes it.Does that somehow affect your enjoyment?If everyone liked the same things,we'ed all be in trouble.Kind of like being a Deadhead from the early seventies in 1987 and beyond!
I was at both shows and it was amazing. I knew it was a singular event, like watching a supernova on the crest of blue wave of life and love.
One of my all time favorites listened to it so many times over the miles and decades ... the lore is that it was the only time Jerry went on stage solo and he hated it so Khan showed up later ... the intimacy of this performance is stunning ... Jerry exposes his heart and soul uniquely ... Amazingly I live a block from the infamous Passaic Capital Theatre ... just moved there 20 years too late ;) ... RIP Jerry, Sleep in the Stars!
I still love listening tho these shows on my 90 minute Memorex tape there is just something about that imperfection of a hiss like the crackle in a record, it puts me in a trance and takes me back back to my latter high school years when life was still easy and had no worries, myhappy place, now my happy place is going to shows with my family. Ain't nothing better than watching Dead and Co. with my wife and 5 year old daughter.
Maxell, but, yeah the off speed and texture... and that the way you had acquired it really sung out too!
I jammed a whole dead show recently , , took me almost a week but I found a little time ever day
@Odis Driftwood I remember those old cassette tapes - loved them too - if you have a smartphone - get soundhound & you can record these songs directly to your cell
@@linitakegel3343 I understand - his voice is like a lullaby for my natural sleep - love it
@@tresorngray absolutely there is nothing like it, i've been listening to a lot of JGB lately. I have been acquiring them from Garcia Family website. They put out a new remastered show every couple months it seems. Some shows you can even get on vinyl or they also come with a shirt and poster for that show, really cool.
Jerry was a gift to me. I listen now at age 50 and feel more touched now than in the mid-80s-90s when I saw the Dead many times. To hear him here - solo on acoustic - is an amazing healing experience 🤩
@Ben Fleury-Steiner
I feel like he was a gift to me also - love love love love him...
I had never heard " Go,Going,Gone" and I have tears in my eyes! I read something a deadhead kid wrote He may never have seen Jerry but he said he realized that Jerry was singing his eulogy all along, hearing this I think he was correct! I met Jerry in 1971 and that Jerry still had dreams, Sweet Dreams Jerry Your alive in our hearts
right on man
Been a fan for thirty years and it never gets old listening to him and I still keep finding jams on the internet.
Goin goin gone is a Dylan song
🌳 It's off the lesser known Dylan album Planet Waves ('74), and BD At Budokan ('79) 🙂🌻
@Stephen Marksberry
Just enjoy -
Ah Jerry. This music is truly the soundtrack to my life since I get turned on when I was 17. Lucky enough to have had five solid years of 15-20 shows / year until the tragedy in '95. The music means even more now than it did then. Love you always Jerry, thanks for opening portals of my life and consciousness, and facilitating some of the most meaningful relationships of my life. BTW - this version of Gomorrah is about as beautiful as it could possibly be....
I’ll smoke to that brother !!!
☝🏼🎧👌🏼🔥💨💨💨
Can't believe I never heard of an acoustic solo Jerry! I love it.... AND A CHINA DOLL!! I'm in heaven😁
IMO "Sing Me Back Home" is truly one of the greatest songs ever written. R.I.P. Merle and R.I.P. Jerry.
Juhyyu u tug
I couldn't agree more. Its funny how merle and jerry are cut from the same cloth, and how it took me living half a century to realize it. I would've said they were worlds apart when they were both still with us, I think I just had to mature emotionally and musically to Be capable of hearing the music and appreciating the magnitude of each man's body of work and prodigious ability to speak to the soul of man. Thank you God.
Couldnt of said it better.....
My dad raised me on Merle's music. He is truely one of the greatest writers of our time as well.
Tom Petty said it best... helluva guitar player but that voice man... no one sings like that
these jerry solo shows in the NY/NJ area were magic ...
This is amazing. That man was a genius.
This is a sublime masterpiece
Jerry WORKED and he worked and do you know what he did after that? He worked. The guy never stopped.
Playing was life
It was more play than work, playing for his life!
Amen!!!
So glad I stumbled across this, never listened to it. ❤⚡💙
enjoy :) thanks for tuning in
Loved Jerry,s Capital shows thru the early 80,s.
We would turn dirty ol Passaic NJ into Musical sea of tye dye love . We gave away 2 miracle tickets to the early show on this day,& did the late one. Now at 65yrs old,
Id think about selling my soul for 1 more tour
His bluegrass roots come across clearly here. He had a ringing voice that oftentimes revealed an anguish and sweetness simultaneously.
Well said.
Gomorrah at 13:46 is unbelievably awesome. I miss Jerry. 😢
I was at this show I was 16 years old can't believe it's the only performance Jerry did solo and he wouldn't do no more he didn't like being on stage by himself so he had John Khan come aboard and help him
Going "unplugged" Long before it was hip...Nice!
Coldsmoke I know what you mean; however, his acoustic guitar is fitted with a bridge pickup and that is plugged into the PA. Peace.
Allowing tapers to record their shows since the 1960's - that is way ahead of hip and fast tracking.
@@DavidMFChapman damn kirt cobaine did that too for his unplugged show
Grateful Dead World is large. You can be a fan for a long time, as I have, and still discover new regions to explore. I never knew Jerry did a solo acoustic show! Two, I guess, on the same day.
going going gone. wow!!! jus wow. never even seen this on a setlist solo acoustic show before
Let there be love songs to fill the aire...thanks Captain Trips! One Love ✌️
This is such a special performance. Love returning to it now and then. I will always cherish the more than 125 times I saw The Dead and The JGB between 1982 and 1994. Jerry remains in my heart, my memory, and my soul.
I was talking to my baby brother today about Jerry and the dead. We're 12 years apart. He reminded me that I had introduced him and his group of friends to this unbelievable music. And that most of them are now just as enchanted with it as he and I are. It really never occurred to me that he had taken the music that I shared with him and shared it with his friends. But I feel so fantastic for exposing the younger generation to this remarkable music.
I don't even know the kids that my brother exposed to Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead, but I'm glad he did. NFA Jerry
After over 45 years listened JERRY & THE DEADs...what can i say: "THAT is TIMELESS & SPACELESS"😇❤🙏
This concert is a lovely gem. Thank you Jerry for freakin good times
papa bear for ever
@Richard Kronen
Jerry is the gem here
The sound Jerry gets from the flat top is truly amazing. Great Acoustic play at its best. Love Acoustic Jerry/Dead.
Martin
@@lloydclaussen226 are you sure? I don’t think so. I played one of the acoustic he used w grisman this period of time - was a rather unpleasant thin sounding guitar- tho was honored to share dna w the master . I was not at this gig but not sure you are correct.
@@golds04 It was a Takamine I think.
@@haikat4 you know- the guitar sounded so bad that I don’t think i ever even looked at what guitar it was. The strings were old and likely needed a neck reset. Was just happy to get some Jerry’s dna yo help me play better!
going going gone tears my heart out
Was just thinking the same thing
This song cries a tear for us all, and gladdens our hearts with a smile
Greatest gift to music in my lifetime. I'm soon to be 41 and I seen the dead live twice. I've been hooked since first song I ever heard. After my mom died in 92, one her friends gave me Europe 72.
I’m 41 and my Mom also died in 92 too. Wild! JG helps no doubt. Alway has
WTF Thanks so much! I have never heard this. ty
His advice and praise in '79 surely help shape my music. Thanks again, Jerry.
how have i never heard this before? a masterpiece. the run for the roses is perfect.
Here I am listening, and being lucky all at the same time. Thank you god.
Best version ever!!! Enchanting... flat out one of a kind.... There’s none Jerry except for you...except for you!!!! For all the years ... and many shows....It is your guitar and your voice playing on the song of my heart... I still groove .. dance.. play guitar and love your Jam all the time...from the bottom of my heart... like I yelled at you in your camp at deer creek, Indiana..... thank you thank you thank you...you smiled and waved.....I will never forget it.
Nobody like Jerry!❤️..this show just picks me up..it’s like he’s playing three guitars at the same time..
Not only the greatest lead guitarist in history, but the greatest rhythm guitarist in history, too!
Jackie Public III with Bobby(?).
mary frank Jerry is a way better rhythm guitarist than Bob. Just listen to any Jerry Garcia Band concert. Bob is very talented & his playing is unique, but he's no Jerry.
His voice is really fine here and it's interesting to be able to hear exactly what he's playing on guitar. But I can hear just how much he hated having to supply all the accompaniment himself and not having other musicians to interact with. Rhythm guitar in a band and solo guitar are two very different things.
@@paulperkins1615 Great insight there's a clip of Rueben and Cherise on here and he does look pained when having to do everything.
Reading all your posts tears me up. I saw Jerry and the dead quite a few times and it was a life-changing experience for me. Those shows are the most precious of my memories. Its good to know that I am not alone. I truly believe that Jerry Garcia was and still is the most and best-loved person of our time. He profoundly touched the hearts and souls of just about everyone that was lucky enough to see him play. He was a channeler of spirit and emotion and a true gift to humanity. No one else touched people as deeply as him except maybe Jesus but I never saw him live.
Yeah, spaced out heroin addicts have a profound effect on some people.
@Travis Bessonette You said it correctly man - he was ahead of his time..
@@murphroberts4891 I'd rather be a little spaced out and touching souls than be stuck in the the internet trolling deadheads.
I was there for all three sets (2 shows)....
This and my first few at RCMH are the reasons why I am for the most part and acoustic musician.....
J effin C this is beautiful.
Oh sweet mama yo daddy’s got them deep elem blues this is soooo sweet thanks for the memories sure do miss him
You catfish John lol?
82 is fantastic. For JG, for JGB & for GD. Most underrated year there is. Excellent from beginning to end.
Went to these shows I remember my bro in law Mike pulled me from in front of a city bus going 50mph on the way to the car.almost my last show .it was so fucking close .thanks Mike
brothers of the bus; I stepped off a curb in ‘76 for an oncoming elder in an English town and saw everyone approaching me recoil and inhale as the double decker brushed my upper arm as it approached from behind me at speed.
I was unharmed.
Close Call.
Believe in Miracles.
@nognuisagoodgnu
I like your additions listing all of the sets or songs - you are the man for Jerry & me - thank you, sir!
I laughed and cried all together now I needed this friend thankful again
I saw Jerry every time he ever played since'65 this wuz one lovely gig
Matthew Campbell I'm going to call bullshit on that bud... Roughly 4100 shows dead..jgb...legion.. Solo...
This is a holy concert ya know? Seriously.
I wish I was there even though I was only 3 years old. I am grateful that I did get to see the Grateful Dead before Jerry passed away because nothing has and will ever compare to those experiences and I owe it all to my mom who had the notion to go see them live
Just passin' through + a quick thumbs up for respect. Nice to see you all here.
Was there. Both shows. 10th row center for first show. 1st row center late show. Took different girl to each show. Fun times. Hah
Oh my what a privalege to hear this and with two different Ladies!!!!!!!!!!!
First time I saw the Dead was just outside of Novato California. I was 8 years old and on my way with my family to see "Cool Hand Luke" at the local Drive-in. They were hitchhiking on the other side of highway 101. We stopped by a local Alpha-Beta market and there they were eating doughnuts out of the box in the store. The youngest guy who I later realized was Bob Weir, saw I liked the doughnuts and offered me one. Well Years later I realized that the guy who offered me doughnuts was Bobby and the other guys n various stages of long hair were the Dead. So awesome. And yep... Here it is 54 years later and I still Love them and all my fellow Deadheads and the Whole World (mostly) very. Take it easy Sister's and Brother's. Love You all. Each and Every One of You!!
Beautiful souvenir!!!!
Peace ✌️ on you!☮️
@@c.chelseathedog7987 Thanks and love your doggie meme
as announcer said, this is extremely rare. Just Jerry on acoustic? No John Kahn, no David Grisman? I don't know if I have a single recording of just Jerry alone with vocals and acoustic. This is a treasure!!!! A million thank yous for sharing.
You know it bro. This is rare. It lets you know what the man is about.
I'm pretty sure this was the only show ever where Jerry was completely alone. It was a two-night gig and John Kahn appeared with him on the second night. It might have worked better for him in a smaller venue, but even by 82 jerry was filling larger and larger venues. Hard to imagine, but even though the Warfield theater in SF seated less than 3k people you could buy tickets outside before the shows for most of the entire 1980 run of GD Warfield shows. $8.50 for floor seats and $5.00 for balcony seats if I remember correctly :-)
I had been wondering if Jerry _ever_ played purely solo. Thanks for posting!
I think that for Jerry, music lived in the connection with the other musicians (and, to a lesser extent, the audience).
In songwriting he always collaborated. Singing in the Dead, in addition to the intense musical collaboration, just about every song he sings has harmonizing vocals. I didn't think that "pure Jerry" existed.
This is a rare treat, indeed.
This is the only performance of Jerry solo. He had John Kahn jump on this tour after this show. The story I heard is that he was uncomfortable with his performance believe it or not. I always considered it just about the sweetest show ever.
This is beautiful. Thank you. Most of us can certainly understand the discomfort being out on stage all alone. Can't blame Jerry for only having done it once, but sure glad he did it and it got captured on tape. Very genuine... Brings me to tears listening.
Thanks for posting this show, brings back the memories, Jerry was so on that night. Nearly fell out of my seat when he played China Doll. He loved to play and we were lucky to be around to hear him.
Jerry is the real deal ⭐️
love China Doll and one of my favorites Sing me back home!
holy shit. I played this earlier today on a little road trip. And I gotta say. The music made the trip. And omfg. That solo during dire wolf gave my chills.
Just keep on keeping on...
Here I am. A year later and back to this song. That dire wolf Still hits all the right spots.
Totally spaced this, one of my best bootlegs on a Maxwell xl2.
You can hear every row enjoying it individually and collectively with this mix!!!
I wish he was still around, miss you Jerry ; you were a true musical genius😢
Doesn't get any better than this people... Much love to Jer..
I was fortunate in my life (72 now) to get too many events. Unfortunately, this one I missed. The rendition of Deep Elem Blues is IMHO, the best of the many versions I've heard...
This is such a treat thank you. I had the privilege of seeing him several times. My favorite.
Thank you to whomever posted this wonderful moment.
Thanks for posting.I was at this show and have had my tape of it for years.It's nice you shared.It was my favorite tape for many years.
I met Jerry Garcia backstage at a show. We hit it off and he offered to mentor me in my guitar playing pilgrimage. We became very close and he confided many of his deepest thoughts with me. Miss him very much!!! RIP Jerry my dear friend!!!
Just what i needed! As always many thanks & much love 💚🙏💚
thanks for posting, i have listened many times since discovering it. Total meaning and feeling in the man, wonderful guitar imagination, unequalled. I love the audience attention and rapture on this recording, great atmosphere. x
I use to have this recording somewhere. Man, I'm glad he found it again!!
One of the most moving concerts Jerry (acoustic/solo) performances I've seen since '68! ✌️💜
Man, not that this isn't a treat, but if you had the show videoed .....
I had the pleasure of seeing MR. JERRY GARCIA, solo, at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic in the early 1970's. He was sitting on a chair, no guitar, and nodded off. He started to lear towards his left, but caught himself and started laughing, sitting upright again.
I'ma Take his tunes with me when I go to heaven that's all I know. And so will you! Peace and Love to the world! Amen RIP JERRY
BRAVO, CLASSIC.
Thanks for the post
