Bob Weir – Marin County, CA (xx/xx/71)

Bob Weir
1971 Demos for Ace LP

These are solo acoustic references made with lyricist John Barlow, recorded at Bob’s Marin home during Fall of 1971. Sourced from pre-FM production CD made by David Gans for one of his KPFA Dead Marathon pledge drives a few years ago. Some of Weir’s most beloved songs in their embryonic stage. “C Shuffle” is an early development of “Walk In The Sunshine.” The unknown song is nice and is unique to these reference recordings.

According to the TC Vol 2, these are run throughs of mostly David Crosby
songs with the Dead backing, most likely of interest for completists.
