Jerry Garcia And David Grisman - Jerry Garcia And David Grisman - Hybrid Stereo SACD

Grisman recalled in an interview how the Garcia and Grisman performances and recordings in the 1990s came about: “Jerry came over to my house one day, checked out my home studio, and asked me, ‘How about putting out some more Old and in the Way tapes?’ I said, ‘Frankly Jerry, I’d rather see us put out something new, we can put out Old [and in the Way] tapes when we’re in wheelchairs.”

As well as being artistically successful the Garcia and Grisman partnership also gave Grisman the finances needed to continue his Acoustic Disc record label. As Grisman noted in another interview: ”Jerry kind of takes care of the profitable part.”

The first Garcia / Grisman album was nominated for a Grammy and sold more than 100,000 copies.
