Big thanks to Simon Babbs for sending along this rare set from 1970.
Sam Cutler‘s memoir, You Can’t Always Get What You Want: My Life with the Rolling Stones, the Grateful Dead, and Other Wonderful Reprobates, is available as an audiobook and as an iPhone/iPad app with a ton of bonus material. Sam offered up his reading of the “Garcia” chapter in celebration of Jerry’s birthday – and of course, to drum up interest in the book. Mission accomplished, I’d say: I think You Can’t Always Get What You Want is a terrific read.
