Jerry Garcia Band, 'Friend of the Devil' -- Song Premiere
- Posted on Nov 11th 2009 11:00AM by Benjy Eisen
Although rock audiences are familiar with the Grateful Dead's 'Friend of the Devil,' guitarist/singer Jerry Garcia often explored different sides of the song in his various solo projects. This version, taken from the new archival release 'Let it Rock: Jerry Garcia Band 1975,' is an unusually jazzy interpretation featuring keyboard embellishments from Nicky Hopkins, who was only a member of the Jerry Garcia Band during their inaugural tour. This initial incarnation is certainly lesser-known and lesser-heard -- even amongst obsessive collectors -- thus making this release a true treat for Deadheads.
