Move Me Brightly: Celebrating Jerry Garcia’s 70th Birthday

move me brightly

Here’s a review more of you can get behind. A bunch of cool folks got together in 2012 to celebrate what would have been Jerry Garcia’s 70th birthday and threw a big musical party.

My memory of this is that it is good, but it must have not been mind-blowing because I haven’t listened to it since.

I’m also pretty sure Phil Lesh came for a couple of songs and then took off because he had his own gig at his own place that same day.

They aren’t coming anywhere near me, but if they come your way I always recommend catching Wilco live. They remain one of the best live bands out there.
