Tienda Throughout his life, Jerry Garcia had an abiding fondness for the banjo, bluegrass, and roots-folk music. It not only helped shape the Grateful Dead’s vast repertoire, but also led him on various musical excursions outside of the Dead. One of his most consistent collaborators in his extra-Dead adventures was “newgrass” mandolin master and bandleader David Grisman. The two of them formed the nucleus of the short-lived but influential bluegrass ensemble Old & In the Way in the early 1970s. These 13 delightful folk songs were culled from numerous laid-back Garcia-Grisman sessions that took place in Grisman’s studio between 1990 and 1995, often joined by Joe Craven on fiddle and percussion and Jim Kerwin on bass. Garcia and Grisman pulled these songs–some of them quite obscure–from a variety of American eras and genres. Included is a vivid rendition of Mississippi John Hurt’s “Louis Collins,” as well as folk odes like “Casey Jones,” “Whiskey in the Jar,” and “The Handsome Cabin Boy.” Throughout, the resulting music is mellow and evocative, likely to appeal to both neo-folkies and open-minded Deadheads. –Bob Allen
