Jerry Garcia Band, 12-31-75

1975 was the year that the Grateful Dead took off to re-group. The overhead of hauling around the "wall of sound" along with some mismanagment left them in financial trouble. As a result they only played four shows in 1975 and all four were in San Francisco. That year they spent a lot of time in the studio making the Blues For Allah album. Since there were not all the normal shows Jerry Garcia filled his time playing Jerry Garcia Band shows. Here is the New Years show from that year.
