FOUR NEW DATES ANNOUNCED FOR JERRY GARCIA SYMPHONIC CELEBRATION FEATURING WARREN HAYNES
Round Records Releases Re-mastered, Limited Edition Vinyl Of Garcia, Jerry Garcia's Solo Debut, On Record Store Day, April 19
The Jerry Garcia Symphonic Celebration Featuring Warren Haynes will visit four additional cities this spring: Wallingford, CT, Chicago, IL, Milwaukee, WI and St. Louis, MO.
This groundbreaking orchestral adventure - curated by the Garcia family - will feature his storied original compositions as well as classic interpretations of timeless standards that were hallmarks of Garcia and the Grateful Dead's shows. GRAMMY®-winning vocalist/guitarist Warren Haynes (Allman Brothers Band, Gov't Mule) will lend his soul-soaked, introspective blend of rock, blues, R&B and jazz to Garcia'smasterworks. Haynes brings an intimate knowledge of the material, having performed extensively with The Dead and Phil Lesh & Friends. He will be collaborating with some of the country's most respected symphonies. A limited number of tickets are still available HERE for the previously announced May 13 and 14 dates with The Boston Pops and conductor Keith Lockhart at Symphony Hall in Boston, MA.
In celebration of Record Store Day, Round Records will re-issue Garcia, Jerry Garcia's solo debut, on Saturday, April 19. The white 180-gram vinyl will come inindividually numbered foil-stamped packaging (edition of 1,500) and include a free MP3 download card. The limited edition re-issue features newly re-mastered audio from the original 30ips 1/4" mix master reels.
Garcia was originally released in January 1972 and peaked at No. 35 on theBillboard 200 - the highest charting solo release of Garcia's career. Garcia provides most of the album's instrumentation himself, performing on acoustic guitar, electric guitar, pedal steel, bass, piano, organ, samples and vocals. Grateful Dead drummerBill Kreutzmann appears on drums. The album's songs - six of which became staples in the Grateful Dead repertoire - are credited to Garcia, Kreutzmann and lyricist Robert Hunter.
Garcia spoke lightly of the album at the time, telling Rolling Stone, "I'm just going on a trip. I have curiosity to see what I can do, and I've a desire to get into sixteen track and go on trips that are too weird for me to want to put anybody else I know through. And also I want to pay for this house."
While Garcia characterized the album as "self-indulgent," AllMusic.com notes, "Time has rendered that assessment utterly false, as Garcia is nothing short of a full-bodied artistic expression from one of rock & roll's most multi-faceted musicians."
About Jerry Garcia:
Jerry Garcia (1942-1995) created an unparalleled legacy across the American landscape, most notably in his role as a founding member, singer, songwriter and lead guitarist of the Grateful Dead. Garcia's unmistakable guitar tone enchanted multitudes of "Deadheads" throughout the band's 30-year career and beyond. His work with the Jerry Garcia Band, Old and in the Way, Legion of Mary, Garcia/Grisman and projects with Merl Saunders only scratch at the surface of his musical influences as he set out to master the Great American Songbook. Unequivocally devoted to the craft of music, Garcia continues to inspire future generations through the body of work he has left behind and his creative spirit.
About Warren Haynes:
Grammy® Award-winning artist Warren Haynes is a member of three of the greatest live groups in rock history: The Allman Brothers Band, The Dead and his own Gov't Mule, which has sold more than two million song downloads from their own MuleTracks web site. Haynes, named as one of "The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" by Rolling Stone, has also released three solo albums and performed or recorded with such artists as Phil Lesh & Friends, James Hetfield, Bob Dylan, John Lee Hooker, Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Dave Matthews, Kid Rock and B.B. King.
