Grateful Dead Sleep Stories | The Summer Bob Dylan Toured With the Grateful Dead, and Jerry's Dylan Songbook and more
From Grateful Dead Sleep Stories · 02:08:46
Show by GD Sleep Strories
Tonight, two old friends who never quite worked out how to play together: Bob Dylan and the Grateful Dead. A warehouse in San Rafael where they rehearsed one spring, a summer of six stadium shows, a live record almost nobody loved, and a songbook Jerry Garcia carried with him his whole life. The real story is in the rooms around the tour, the couch at the warehouse, the borrowed guitar, the scraps of paper, and the songs the Dead kept playing long after the stadiums had emptied. A long, calm story for a long night.
