Miss ya Jerry Garcia - it hasn't been the same


....I can't believe that it has been 18 years.

Agree, but the last decade, or more, of Jerry's life was difficult for me as a big fan. Garcia's playing became spotty and his voice was really shot. The several post-GD projects are good, not great. I find we're just trying to re-live our past and the newly constituted splinter bands are breaking no new ground at all.
Agreed,

the GD were done by the time 1990 rolled around. They achieved mega- stardom during the 70's. Additionally, the band was hit-or-miss during the 1980's. Miss ya JG, we will always have the music!
Just listened to a standard pressing of Reckoning the other night. What a great record !
Where did the time go? I'm glad those days are over for me but I miss them, and I wish Jerry were still around. '87 or '88 was the last shows I attended.
My Jerry Garcia neck ties are still among my favorites.

When he was good, he was very good.
