Free Music Review: A Timeless Timecapsule
Hit: 5 Stars
Yep, this is a document of musical grace and ... gasp I'm about to use the big "G" ... genius. It's got the definitive "Sugaree." Period. Contrary to several reviews written here, Jerry didn't play *all* the instruments. Musical contributors included Larry Carlton, Robert Hunter and Amos Garrett on guitars, Michael Omartian on keys, plus Maria Muldaur and Clydie King on vocals. For drummers, Billy Kreutzmann's perfoamce is like a master class in musical percussion. Perhaps it is his best recorded performance. But it's Jerry's album through and through. Plus, it was released nearly at the same time as Bob Weir's "Ace" and Mickey Hart's "Rolling Thunder" solo albums, which were released in '72 as well. Listen to all contemporaneous Dead/Solo releases and you'll hear the musical development of this band of merry pranksters in action. I've heard the Dead needed to drop about five records to fulfill its WB contract : Garcia, Ace and 3-disc Europe 72 equals five. And in '73 you get Wake Of The Flood. Hmmm. Makes sense. Look for a recent Rhino re-issue with 8 alternate tracks of previously unreleased material.
Garcia Poster
Garcia's 1972 debut was truly a labor of love for the Grateful Dead guitarist, an album on which he plays every instrument except drums--he leaves the traps to his Dead compatriot Bill Kreutzmann. Six wonderful Garcia originals (cowritten with lyricist Robert Hunter) appear on record for the first time, all of which would become staples of the Dead's repertoire. Garcia mixes in a few creepy sonic experiments for good measure, but the album truly revolves around particularly satisfying readings--especially vocally--of some of his most enduring songs. --Marc GreilsamerPop Music CDs
