Oh damn this is the story of the verse/chorus from Truckin, busted down on bourbon, setup like a bowlin’ pin

[@bluecollar825]

Knocked down, it gets to wearin' thin!!!🎶👍✌

[@jdel7525]

Jerry is so highly articulate, very intelligent. He can explain things beautifully. You can listen to him and never get bored. What a gift.

[@riceflatpicking4954]

He’s the one guy that every time I get a chance to hear anything that he says, I automatically watch the video. And the books are the same, I think over the years I’ve read just about all of them.

[@Fictius]

Agreed, Jerry was a Special individual. God Bless Your Soul Jerry....🙏

[@JamesSteven-mb8zf]

Jerry always has been high frequency &vibration.Along with his high IQ,very, very Intelligent!!!!!!!

[@JamesSteven-mb8zf]

I miss the days where talk radio could just be people talking to each other about their lives without reference to politics.

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

me too man.

[@deadreckoning6288]

Great interview. Never heard this one.

[@paulbudd4406]

Frankly it was good just to hear his voice. A familiar voice from my past filled with laughter, stories, and some wisdom. When playing some music it seemed like he had one foot in this universe and the other foot in another universe and we all got to peek inside of it with him.

[@redtobertshateshandles]

Amen to that.

[@Dreadtower]

There is an interview around in which he talked about that state. It’s akin to mindfulness to my mind. However, there is something further out than that accessible by some people who suffer episodes of mania and with marijuana. It’s like a super-mindfulness but one has no control over it coming and going, it’s the muse or ‘genius’ in the original Latin sense (a presence of a spirit). But he definitively states that he is looking for that state, however he would describe it. It’s pretty indescribable really.

[@paulbudd4406]

@@Dreadtower On the anthem of the sun album cover Jerry is depicted as the most advanced with the volume of flames and the fire in his crown. Jerry's music always spent some time in a place where no one else did go or could go. The music was his being and it was rich, full of flavor and color. He and his music were distinct and irreplaceable.

[@Bunbeck-pf9iw]

That is put very good because I think like that ! He is all over he world doing his thing as usual being a ghost + all as I know for sure because I’ve seen them in my lifetime !

Hi the interviewer sounds a lot like the singer songwriter Jerry Jeff Walker the slow friendly Texas vibe

[@czarlymarchanowski4933]

Very honest and fun way of approaching the vibes 🙈🙉🙊

[@4Naturalgreen]

The interesting thing about Jerry Garcia is that you don’t have to know who he is to like him. He had Universal appeal.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

9:51 Big Clive. When they were signing with Arista Hunter pointed out that Clive Davis spelled backwards was Siva Devil C.

[@arlenmargolin4868]

I probably made a comment on this site before but who knows but I'm coming back from I'm pretty sure it was Baltimore I had hitchhike down by myself and hitchhike back by myself and on the way home I saw Jerry's Garcia getting busted not realizing that that was Jerry at the time but later that day I heard about him getting popped in some I think it was a Cadillac and yeah I saw it going 50 miles or 60 miles an hour but I did see him get popped

[@RobHollanderMusic]

Love the pic! Thanks for the interview.

I found a tattoo artist in Montreal who accepted to transfer a black and white replica of this picture on my back. The first outlines will start in September...can't wait. approx. 15 inches in diameter. $2500. I'll post pics as it comes along. This guy is stunningly good.

@@noturnleftunstoned72 thanks for posting all that you do. Listening on Jerry’s birthday, I’d love to see that tattoo as it comes along too man! Grateful 🌹

[@robertsears3737]

I just started listening to his interviews...extremely intelligent...very articulate...great narrative voice. He mentions the New Jersey turnpike...it's a fast lane highway that takes you from Philadelphia directly into Manhattan via the Lincoln Tunnel or the Holland Tunnel ( always take the Holland Tunnel). Jerry gets arrested on the New Jersey turnpike..which was easy to do in the 70's and 80s. I grew up at exit 4 of the New Jersey Turnpike. Any creative person..musicians..artists..bohemian.....actor...designer..always love to tell their New Jersey stories..it's a badge of honor that is a weird assimilation.. if you ever hung out in Manhattan as a creative person...the oil and petroleum state ( New Jersey ) touches you. This interview with Mr Garcia was excellent..wow was he intelligent..articulate. In 2022 he could make billions just narration...obviously that would not be his scene.

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

It sounds like you may be a North Bergen guy?! I knew a taper from there and stayed with him during all those Giants and Brendan Byrne shows. I love Jersey heads so much. peace.

[@johnnytoobad7785]

Just love listening to Jerry...An American Treasure. RIP.

[@MrGarage]

Jerry's voice has a striking similarity to Bill Hicks'.

[@johnstallings4049]

It's hard not to like that! 💜😄💜

[@violablues67]

I could listen to Jerry converse for hours. What a chill guy.

[@benher973]

This sounds more like a 60s interview he sounds nothing like late 70s Garcia.

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

tape speed.

[@tommcdonald2805]

I laughed when Jerry said he didn’t think TV is a good medium to communicate music…..wait 3 years Jerry!

[@stephenfiore9960]

Yup..I thought he would be doodling on the guitar while being interviewed. Never give a guitarist a guitar if you want him to talk

[@namcat53]

Great interview..the volume is too low.

[@stephenfiore9960]

Agree

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

Apologies. It's the way my source sounds and when I increased the recording levels it sounded 10 times worse believe it or not lol. It was all hiss and swirly sounds regardless of noise reduction as well. ✌

[@riceflatpicking4954]

The imperfections are what make so many of these recordings great.
