Jerry Garcia Band – Heads & Tails Vol. 1 (Cloudy Blue LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Paul Butterfield's appearance alongside Garcia and Merl Saunders in 1972 captures a moment when the San Francisco scene was still thick with that kind of spontaneous, cross-pollinating brilliance. Jump forward sixteen years and the JGB's back-to-back run through "Don't Let Go" and "Think" shows a band that had fully grown into Garcia's vision for soul-drenched, groove-centered live music. Two eras, one slab of cloudy blue wax.
The first installment in a new archival vinyl series which will showcase previously unreleased performances from the Jerry Garcia Family vaults. Heads & Tails: Vol. 1 presents two mind-boggling performances on a single LP. One side features a Garcia/Saunders' 1972 recording of “Save Mother Earth” with special guest Paul Butterfield on harmonica. The other side features the Jerry Garcia Band’s exhilarating paring of “Don’t Let Go” and “Think” captured in 1988. Pressed on "cloudy blue" vinyl.
