Jerry Garcia
It’s the first of August once again and today we celebrate Jerry Garcia’s birthday.
This year, I’d like to share with you a video of one of the many great moments I had the fortune to experience live. This version of Shining Star by The Manhattans was performed by the Jerry Garcia Band at Hampton Coliseum on November 19, 1993. It’s a slow song but was deeply moving to be present as the audience sang to Jerry and he sang back to us. Put this on and enjoy.
Happy 68th Birthday, Jerry.
