SUMMER BY THE BAY
Great to hear the sweet tenor of bassist Oteil Burbridge a little more on this tour. He’s taking the Jerry ballads to wonderful new places! “If I Had the World to Give” appeared on the Dead’s 1978 album Shakedown Street but was only performed live a handful of times by the Dead.
Dead & Company live shows are available in a variety of formats from livedead.co
My new studio album is called Drop the Bone. You can read about it, hear some samples, and download it from bandcamp right now! It’s got eight original songs and jams, plus one GD favorite (“Box of Rain”), the Beatles’ “Here Comes the Sun,” and the Townes Van Zandt classic “Pancho and Lefty.”
Support for the Grateful Dead Hour comes this week from:
