REpost: The Grateful Dead with David Murray live at Madison Square Garden 22nd September 1993



Following on from David Murray's version of 'Dark Star' yesterday.
David Murray live with the Grateful Dead in 1993
HERE
Tracks are: 'Estimated Prophet - Dark Star - Drums & Space'
What can I say about this?
Well by this time Jerry Garcia was just mostly noodling (and nodding) and that had an obvious adverse effect on the rest of the band.
Murray's Ayler like sax obviously works better on these more free-form Dead workouts but I would have loved to have heard him play with them 20 years earlier.
