Launch of the Jerry Garcia covers project special (Part 1 of 5+)

Jerry Garcia performed in well over 4000 live concerts during his decades as a musician, about half of the shows in The Grateful Dead, the rest in other projects.  Jerry's solo career (view by year) spanned almost the entire existence of The Grateful Dead and his repetoire was truly massive.

Starting today and extending through 2013, I will feature Jerry's solo cover material (but not all of it), in a similar fashion to a GD special I produced last year (parts 1, 2, 3).  This means that you'll hear the originally recorded version of the song and then Jerry performing it with one of his side groups.  I will emphasize the early and middle 1970s era, but won't stay there.

Many of the shows in this series (at least 5 broadcasts this year) will be themed and the January launch will only feature jazz tunes (examples in bold below). Playlist for (the Jerry only) audio posted above.
