I wish I had more of this recording. This is 25 minutes
of a recorded conversation with Jerry Garcia n a Portland, OR
hotel room.
Originally, I hoped to break it up with track markers
for areas of conversation as I was able to do
with a Hawaii conversation I posted a few months ago.
However, this conversation weaves in and out of topics
a bit too much.
These folks are obviously getting stoned during the
conversation (imagine how embarrassing to cough
incessantly in front of Jerry!!).
Anyway, the conversation weaves between talk of how the
Jerry Band must reconcile touring with the Dead dates,
Jerry's guitar strings and new guitars, the Egypt Tour,
Bill Walton, Pacific Northwest Restaurants, politics
and a bit more.
Unfortunately, the tape cuts off in the middle of a
discussion about the upcoming Egypt tour.
As of this date, 9/16/2007, I have been unable to
locate more of this recording.
As always, take this if you need it...
Aloha,
Steve
