Jerry Garcia & David Grisman - Warfield Theater SF CA - 12-7-91

[@jeremycarroll451]

I understand why Americans can be so proud of Jerry Garcia. I'm only discovering this music, but every time I hear him I want to cry with joy and I have no idea why.

[@adriennekraft2381]

Yes, music reaches right into our hearts.

Welcome to the family brother

[@tomberry5517]

With all respect for Jerry's mighty body of work with the Dead, this really strikes me as the man in his true element. Thanks so much for posting.

[@krisdemars1355]

It's all gravy 💖

[@dotChrollo]

I know this comments a few years old but you're really not far off the mark. Jerry had an intense interest in folk music, and prior to the Dead (and I do believe during the early years of the Warlocks) Jerry taught banjo lessons

[@billphipps453]

he liked it all.. he liked to play.

[@anthonypolizze4059]

Anyone watching this in 2024? It’s found in The Smoky Mountains! The spirit of this lives on! Come to Eastern TN folks.. cheers

[@robrivers6476]

I use to have this on a bootleg album this set is magical ❤

[@matthewmaurysmith2486]

I'm almost 48, and I started playing guitar when I was 14, set 34 years of playing and listening intently. And after all of this time, I can say there are only a very few guitarist that I listen to that I can not only immediately identify because of their very unique sound dot.dot but with Jerry that unique sound also moves me so much more than any other guitar player's sound!. There's just something about his sense of Melody and the notes he chooses to play. It's like, as soon as the play button gets hit and you drop right into a live recording of just about any dead song from any year and that sound hits you and just makes you go ahhhh

I love how earthy and mellow these shows are. It's like brushing your hand in a sweetgrass field on a gentle late summer day. I like to think these kinds of shows were grounding for Jerry.

[@briangosnell9521]

I've spent so many of my youthful years listening to this music. Dreaming about how they played such beautiful music....then I bought my first guitar 45 years ago... I've heard many shows from the Warfield. There's a ton of bootleg tapes. Now I see it for real. And yes, I've been on stage and on the radio playing Bluegrass guitar and Singing Friend of the Devil!!🎵🎶🎵💥💥💥

[@wiggityp]

'Oh, The Wind and Rain' comes before 'Arabia' in the set list, in case anyone else was confused. This was a righteous show!

[@billphipps453]

i wish i would have gone to see them play together...i had the chance... im glad i have these excellent recordings to enjoy. thank you for sharing

This is the sound of my soul.

[@danielhiggins639]

Look at when all the comments were made. This music is timeless. People are moved one by one over the years. Jerry is special, and so is Grisham, but there will be many artists through the ages who help us remember our singularity and our boundless potential. God bless the human race. May we bask in the glory

[@nicholaswright3678]

That's Jim Kerwin.

[@nicholaswright3678]

it's amazing. during that beautiful solo in Arabia he always references the song 'Hasta Siempre Comandante' by Carlos Puebla. It's about Che Guevara. One time I was walking by the restaurant One Market by the Embarcadero in SF and Jim K. was in their playing background music for the diners.

this is some of my favorite stuff of his... and he looks really good here to think he would be dead in 3-4 years just sucks....someone that was so self abusive? was such a great human being to this world.... definitely was one of the greatest influences of my life, just love to hear him talk....such a smart human being still miss him 20 years later...

[@annmarie3764]

So do I. Miss him with my whole heart and for the same reasons. I think he was happiest when he played with Grisman and the boys. He was freer and the music was deep and melted into your soul from his. Love you, Jerry.

After Brent passed in ‘90 the GD become nothing more than a job to pay the bills, aside from a few random moments of inspiration. Jerry’s creative force went into his solo show and side projects such as this. This is the good stuff

[@rosscameron1124]

I disagree. The post Brent music still had magic and beauty. Personally, I enjoy the 90-95 stretch. New tunes, different sounds, still the Grateful Dead, always delivering the lift I need.
