Tonight’s Music

[jgarr4714]

While perusing my stacks for something to listen to tonight I found an album I hadn’t listened to in a while. The Pizza Tapes. David Grisman, Jerry Garcia, Tony Rice. A fusion of bluegrass, jazz, folk, and gospel. Great album, with a lot of history, won’t go into that you can research it on the internet.. It’s an extemporaneous jam session. Lots of enjoyable music here. Grisman has been a favorite of mine for years, In the late 70’s early 80’s I frequently went into Portland to visit music and record stores. On one occasion I was at the old Tower Records store on 82nd Ave when the David Grisman Quintet came to the lobby, set up and performed a set. Wish those stores still existed. Of course I bought one of all his albums at the time and have continued to buy anyone I didn’t have. Good music, Tony Rice is also a great guitarist and Jerry Garcia a legend. These 3 artists are worth listening to if you like this genre.

I heard that on 88.7 Spindale N.C. WNCW years ago and listen to it a couple times a year. It is a treasure.

If you don’t already have it, “Been all around this world”, is worth checking out.
