Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Garcia, his revered 1972 solo debut, exclusively features cowrites by Jerry, Dead percussionist Bill Kreutzmann, and famed Dead lyricist Robert Hunter, including "Sugaree," "To Lay Me Down," and "The Wheel." Now expanded with eight previously unreleased outtakes from the original sessions, including "Study for Eep Hour" and a "Dealin' From the Bottom" studio jam.
Customer Reviews
Garcia Vega
wordup its bangin its beautiful buy it. everyone else is correct; some of the finest 'Dead-ish music made.
Classic 70's Gem
"If I had a gun for every ace i've drawn-I could arm a town the size of abilene" and "everybody's praying and drinking that wine-I can tell the queen of the diamonds by the way she shines" are the types of lyrics you will be hearing throughout the songs in the album , mix them with Jerry Garcia's inspirational music and soulful honest voice and you will get one of the absolute greatest albums ever to be produced.
I must admit at first listen I didnt really enjoy The Grateful Dead's "American Beauty", but after "Garcia" my whole view of the Dead has completely changed. This terrific gem of an album is only one member's attempt, put them together and you get a tight band who knows which notes to pick.
I can even see now how the Dead have paved the way for many of the southern rockers like Lynyrd Skynyrd and so on with their song themes and style.I learnt all these things from my listen to "Garcia" by the late great Jerry Garcia and I learning more.
Get this now if you like great music!
Genius at Work
This recording shows how much Jerry Garcia meant to the Grateful Dead. He is definitely missed!
