Whatever You Do, Take Care Of Your Shoes

Remembering Jerry Today

It’s hard to believe that 15 years ago today Jerry Garcia passed away.  Along with the other Grateful Dead members, Jerry pioneered the jamband movement, paving the way for other bands to shine with experimental music.  A gifted musician, Jerry could deliver honest bluegrass, soulful ballads, and badass guitar solos unlike no other.  His spirit truly lives on through the music, and can be felt everytime Phil and Bobby hit the stage with Furthur and their other bands.  Below are a few great videos of Jerry in action.  In addition, Live Downloads has an excellent compilation available for purchase called Jerry Jams to coincide with the 15th anniversary of Jerry’s passing.  All proceeds benefit the Rex Foundation.
