Grateful Dead guitarist/icon Jerry Garcia was involved in any number of side projects during his illustrious career, but few as adventurous or musically far-ranging as this 1971 collaboration with keyboardist Howard Wales and a handful of other Bay Area musicians (including Garcia Band cohorts John Kahn and Bill Vitt). On his first album release outside the Dead, Garcia seldom takes center stage, instead seasoning a diverse collection of instrumentals with spare, tasty trademark fills and some propulsive funk- and R&B-inspired rhythm work. Selections like "South Side Strut" underscore Wales previous work in service of James Brown and the Four Tops, but range as far a field as the Bitches Brew-lite free form jazz of *Morning in Marin* to the gorgeous, ethereal Garcia showcase "One A.M. Approach." --Jerry McCulley
