Comment
This single sbd CD features Jerry Garcia & Buddy Cage jamming and noodling with a few Marmaduke vocals and a Weir vocal (Seasons).

Someone (Marmaduke) picks up a bass halfway through).
Very interesting artifact, not from the vault.

Session runs until reel runs out (47:30)

Here what I have on this:=================================
Jam Session Info

Here's the note from James that came with the show:

Now, to the other goody I sent you. Here's the story on that.
A friend of mine who does sound and production work here in
St. Louis was taking slide guitar lessons and went through the archive of open reel tapes they had there and found the one in question. As far as I know at this point it's Jerry Garcia, Buddy Cage and other members of NRPS. Other than that that's all I know right now. The Grateful Dead's archives don't even have this tape.

Pretty fun stuff to listen too even though it's a lot of noodling
and such.

Note from Peter Braverman ([email protected]) 9/01:

Either the date or the venue has got to be wrong.
The Dead played 12/6/71 and 12/7/71 in New York City.
The idea that Garcia would have gone to DC for a jam session, and then back to NYC for a show that night, strains credulity, to say the least. Anybody with more information is enouraged to volunteer it -- append it here and/or e-mail me to let me know what you find out. Thanks!
