Happy Birthday Jerry!



Today would have been Jerry Garcia's 66th birthday and I think we all know he would have celebrated by playing music of some sort on stage. I am celebrating by listing to this killer Grateful Dead show from his 31st birthday which took place on August 1, 1973 in New Jersey.

The highlights are many, but in particular listen to the gorgeous "Bird Song" and the totally epic "Dark Star-> El Paso-> Eyes Of The World-> Morning Dew". Make sure to hide the cat during the particularly trippy "Dark Star". Enjoy!
