The "Dawg at 80!" concert looked phenomenal. What an all-star lineup. It's really too bad Tony Rice isn't still with us as he would have been a great addition. Regardless it looked like a special evening.
It was filmed for a livestream special premiering on nugs.net this Sunday, 3/30 at 8pm eastern.

David "Dawg" Grisman to Celebrate 80th Birthday at Moore Theatre in Seattle with Friends, Family and Previous Collaborators
Thanks to @rowjimmy who just brought it to my attention that Jerry's label IS selling physical media!

I'd recommend getting the “Master Takes" in the format of your choice.
Vol. 3 - “Alternate Takes" These are mostly just them goofing around and all the sloppy takes that didn't make any final recordings.
Note that Acoustic disc is primarily a digital-only label. You can't buy physical copies, only digital downloads. The good news is they offer a ton of formats including HD FLAC (24 bit / 48 KHz)
Vol. 2 - “Other Tunes & Arrangements" Other tracks that didn't make the original albums and alt arrangements. Be sure to click through to this page and listen to "Friend of the Devil"
New remastered Garcia / Grisman recordings are out on the Acoustic Disc label. Look for the “Bare Bones" recordings. All are available in HD formats.

A few notes about these:
Vol. 1 - "Master Takes" All have been previously released. BUT these are stripped down of all other instrumentation and are only the guitar / mandolin duos. They sound fantastic.

"Plastic Raincoats" is a fun song. The Ultimate Spinach, a prime example of The Boston Sound, was a better group than I remembered. If any band members ever stop by, I will apologize.
The Boston Sound, which came to be called Bosstown, was a major label promotion (MGM Records). It fizzled and Bosstown became a joke; but this was not entirely deserved. Some very good music came out of the Boston Sound and the better tracks recorded then hold up very well to this day.
At the time, I was of the view, which would seem to put me in the minority now, that the Jeff "Skunk" Baxter lineup of the Ultimate Spinach was the best.
Hooray for the all-around great John Cooke, Earth Opera, David Grisman, The Ramrods (renamed "Puff"), Peter Rowan, Teddy and the Pandas, the Ultimate Spinach, John Lincoln Wright, and a whole host of others. New England hippies had a wicked good time.
One of the Bosstown-era singers, who came out of Boston, went on, in the 1970s, to become the biggest dance music star in the world: - Donna Summer. I am a big fan. Donna Summer's late '60s Boston band, The Crow, played innovative psych/pop arrangements at the Psychedelic Supermarket.

50 years ago today, old & in the way make their only east coast festival appearance at the warrenton #bluegrass festival in virginia, with a typically crazy multi-day bill playing directly in front of lake whippoorwill. kind of a weird set, not really playing to their strengths. not jerry moore’s finest tape, either, but thankful he trekked out. torrent: https://www.shnflac.net/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=26e7d33c1a579a307e4e463e2583d2991421c130 #JerryGarcia #DavidGrisman [1/3]
