His crystalline guitar style, scratchy but soulful vocals and gentle, grey-bearded visage defined the Dead and its hippie-rock improvisations for nearly thirty years, until his untimely death of a heart attack in rehab in 1995. But Garcia also pursued numerous projects outside the Dead, many with mandolin virtuoso David Grisman. A legend in his own right, Grisman dubbed his mix of jazz and bluegrass “dawg music.” One of the members of Grisman’s quartet, which attracted a number of top players over the years, was flatpicking guitarist Tony Rice, a bluegrass whiz who later founded the supergroup Bluegrass Album Band. Rice, Grisman and Garcia got together in 1993 for an informal jazz & grass jam session (with the tape rolling) in Garcia’s kitchen -- legend has it that a pizza delivery boy later copped the tapes when he came to deliver a pie. The bootleg proved so popular that the session has now become an official release, appropriately dubbed The Pizza Tapes.     David Grisman, Jerry Garcia and Tony Rice Shady Grove LiquidAudio Jambands, Rock A hot pick for its hot pickin’, this warm and winning traditional air from three titans is a Dead-on treasure.
