Jerry Garcia Band: Warner Theatre, March 18, 1978

We are excited to announce the next release in the Pure Jerry series of live Jerry Garcia recordings: Warner Theatre, March 18, 1978.

The Jerry Garcia Band toured in especially auspicious circumstances in early 1978. They had a wealth of new material from the brand new Cats Under The Stars and were joined by Maria Muldaur on vocals, creating exquisite vocal harmonies with Donna Jean Godchaux. The Grateful Dead had just finished their legendary West Coast tour of December 1977 and January 1978. Jerry was on a roll...

Nearing the end of the tour, the JGB played two shows (early and late) in one night at Washington DC's Warner Theatre. Passionate collectors are well familiar with the late show (circulated on tape from a local FM broadcast). This Pure Jerry release contains both shows from the original two-track soundboard masters, updated in the brilliant sounding HDCD format.

Special Note: You will notice that the cover art of Warner Theatre features a photograph of a unique piece of memorabilia - a setlist handwritten by Jerry. For the first pressing of Warner Theatre, one lucky purchaser will receive a coupon inside their package that can be redeemed for this original setlist from Jerry's personal journal.


Download Pure Jerry

The first five installments of the Pure Jerry series are now available for digital download from jerrygarciastore.com. If have not yet added one of these releases to your collection, you can now do so in either CD format or digital format (mp3 and lossless FLAC).

We have also prepared a free download-only sampler of tracks from each of the six Pure Jerry releases (including Warner Theatre). If you are BitTorrent savvy, you can get the sampler from Etree.org or download directly from jerrygarciastore.com or Nugs.net.

I love what your releasing as much as the next person just seems A lil more respect should have been in order today and instead of opening up a email from the estate of Jerry Garcia on his birthday to find you profiting on this special day a nice warm letter would have gone alot farther in my eyes ......
