i am being "politely" urged to play all grateful dead at the record store tonight because apparently jerry garcia died 30 years ago today a few songs, sure, but i was never into them i'm so sorry

there’s a lot of left-field jerry stuff out there even if you’re not a Dead fan i’ve been hooked on So What, the jazz album he did with mandolinist david grisman

Play some pigpen era tunes. Turn on Your Lovelight, Good Morning Little Schoolgirl, Hard to Handle etc. Those might be more up your alley than the classic noodly dead that scores of cover bands continue to imitate.

Bro play New Riders of The Purple Sage. Jerry plays pedal steel on the album so it counts.

Play Box of Rain. Actually just play the songs Jerry didn't sing lead on.

I will mail you the dollar I found to not play anything with Jerry Garcia on it.

6 months ago while walking my dog I grabbed a dollar sticking out of a snowbank. I've carried it with me since wondering what it was for, but now I know. Thank you.
