Quick Jerry Garcia (and Bob Weir) story: Back in 1991 I had an interview with both of them before their show at Nassua Coliseum on Long Island. There we were, just Jerry, Bob, me and my girlfriend sitting knee-to-knee in this tiny room backstage. I don't remember what we rambled on about but it was 45 minutes of wonderfulness. LOL
Then someone came in to get Jerry 15 minutes before the show to "take his medicine". I asked Weir what that was and he said "Jerry gets two joints a day. He's gonna smoke one before the show."
The thing I remember the most is how Jerry kept staring at my GF's giant tits through his rose-colored shades. Haha!!

With Sammy Hagar and Elvis Costello and a few others...
Jerry's musical legacy is without peer. People will be playing his music hundreds of years from now like Mozart is still played today.
He smoked heroin btw, not injected.HomegrownCash.com, the affiliate program of Homegrown Video - The Largest Collection of Amateur XXX - Est. 1982.

Well, the sad thing was, by '91 Jerry was off the heroin (supposedly) but his body had become so ravaged by years of drug use that he had to smoke some marijuana otherwise his body couldn't function. This is what his Tour Manager told me. He died only four years later so who knows.

What made Jerry special is his improvisation was like story telling magic, part of why he was sort of like a Pied Piper that attracted so many to go to every show.
The segue in this gives an idea...

Funny, it took me dating a girlfriend who smoked weed to get into The Dead (the one who came with me to the interview). Before then I had their Greatest Hits and liked Casey Jones, Truckin' and a few others. But then I heard Europe '72 and that did it for me!
But still, to this day, I separate The Grateful Dead into their studio catalog and their live albums (both Official and the myriad of bootlegs). I would break it down this way: in the studio the singers sounded better while live there was no comparison, Jerry rocked (and improvised) harder.
Apparently The Dead were even better on 'shrooms and LSD. LOLMy Affiliate Programs:

What would be cool would be a post-Jerry breakdown of the live concerts series released after his death. There must be hundreds of official recordings by now. Which ones to get? And don't say "all of them". LOL One 'Drums In Space' is enough, thanks. :DMy Affiliate Programs:

My Jerry memory is from a job as well. The music magazine I wrote for sent me and a couple others to the Grateful Dead show. We were actually there to interview all the people that set up shop and create the traveling city that would follow the dead around. It didn't go very well - nobody wanted to talk to "The Man." So instead we drank a bottle of absinthe I had gotten about a month earlier. It was brewed by a local guy and had wormwood in it (and was hence illegal).
The booze hit right about the time the show started and all three of us were tripping balls as The Dead played. About halfway through the show the photographer that was with me turns to me, his eyes wide and high as fuck and says, "I don't think I'm gonna make it!" Before I could respond a hippie in front of us turned around, put his hands on the photographer's shoulders and looked him right in the eye then said, "It's gonna be okay man, Jerry will guide you!"
That night we drank the other bottle and danced around a big bonfire like something out of Lord of the Flies.Comment

I know what you mean. When I watch these videos, it feels really good to just explore the rich landscape Jerry creates with his music. But there's always a tinge of sadness because I regret I did not get to see him play live. I only discovered his music after he passed on.Comment

Understand and sympathize...
When I got on the bus I was bummed to never have seen a Pigpen era show.
As a taper I regretted the great ones I missed, so it is a beautiful thing that so many were recorded and things like sugarmegs and archive.org exist.
I also personally enjoy how the music is moving into another generation and how it is being interpreted by bluegrass, jazz, rock, even classical bands and composers. I go to see a group of local musicians that cover the Dead and it amazes me how there are twenty year olds that never saw a Jerry show but love the music and can experience the joy of the improvisation and feel the spirit even though they never saw Jerry.
His spirit and musical genius truly live on.

The "Here comes sunshine" Dead&co did on 12/30/15 was spectacular. I am really looking forward to it. He "gets it" that is for sure.
