Description: Jerry Garcia "Garcia" vinyl LP 1972 Green label with Dead logo Archival sleeveA favorite, hear the Dead staples paired down Deal, Sugaree, Bird Song, Loser, Lay me Down, Wheel Garcia is Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia's first solo album, released in 1972.Warner Bros. Records offered the Grateful Dead the opportunity to cut their own solo records, and Garcia was released around the same time as Bob Weir's Ace and Mickey Hart's Rolling Thunder. Garcia was more of a solo effort, as Garcia played almost all the instrumental parts. Six tracks (specifically those coauthored by lyricist Robert Hunter) eventually became standards in the Grateful Dead concert repertoire.This release by the legendary guitarist contains the studio version of six songs that would become staples of the Grateful Dead catalog. It's a showpiece of Jerry's musical abilities, as he plays all instruments except drums (played by GD bandmate Bill Kreutzmann). The biggest revelation may be "To Lay Me Down", where keyboards dominate the performance. The remaining four tracks are studio experiments. Overall, an album whose strong performances make it a very worthwhile listen.
