One of the most celebrated figures in all of rock 'n' roll, beloved Grateful Dead lead guitarist, vocalist, and eternal good-will ambassador Jerry Garcia
pursued an eclectic array of folk, bluegrass, roots-rock, Motown and
R&B-influenced side projects throughout his storied career. Both
acoustic and electric, solo and jamming with the Jerry Garcia Band,
his albums apart from the massive output of Dead releases capture the
diverse talents of an incomparable music legend. Spanning 1972-1982,
this historic boxed set collects Garcia's five solo studio albums - all newly remastered and expanded - plus a must-have bonus disc filled entirely with previously unreleased gems from the vaults.
