This is a guy who comes along once in a generation - or maybe once in a century - so there's always going to be that big hole. --Phil Lesh, Founding member of the Grateful Dead. Jerry Garcia was magnetic, affable, inquisitive, approachable and infinitely benign. --Rock Skully, Original Grateful Dead Manager Following the Grateful Dead is truly the Great American Adventure --Jerry Garcia There's no way to measure his greatness or magnitude as a person or as a player. He was that great - much more than a superb musician with an uncanny ear and dexterity. He is the very spirit personified of whatever is muddy river country at its core and screams up into the spheres. He really had no equal. - Bob Dylan Jerry's spirit is like the sun shining off the heart of the lake at mid day and warming you to the core...there is mystery at the bottom of the lake... but the sun you feel... joy. i realized one day that, despite his own pain and battles, the sound of his voice is the sound of the peace that most people want to feel...that is his natural frequency- one of peace. wow. also i recommend listening to his pedal steel playing as well on such songs as teach your children and laughing. just tremendous. thanks Jerry. -Jim James From the first time I heard Dire Wolf on New York radio in the early 70's, to the many Grateful Dead shows I saw during the 80's and 90's, right through this morning when I woke up and played Cats Under The Stars , Jerry Garcia and his music have been an essential part of my life.
