Jerry Garcia and Bob

I've always loved Jerry's interpretations of Bob's songs and have felt that the two men shared quite a connection and had a strong mutual understanding of each other's work. Since we've just gone through the 'week of Jerry' (the days between his birthday on August 1 and the anniversary of his passing on August 9th), this topic has been on my mind. Here are a few things that I posted on The Bob Dylan Fan Club facebook page that deserve a more permanent home here... Feel free to add more links on this topic!

Excerpt from an interview of Jerry with David Gans, with cool insights about Bob's song writing and performing with him:

One of my favorite short Jerry clips -- love the laugh and 'I met Bob Dylan, man!'
