In this edition of The Golden Road we salute the early era of The Grateful Dead and the mighty influence of Augustus Owsley Stanley III...or better known in the band circle as Bear.

The material in this broadcast illustrates the rawness of the band at their beginning and follows the spiraling 'skedelic path of electric composition & sound as they ended the turbulent decade of the 1960's. Also in the mix is a mighty glimpse of their "From Egypt With Love" run at San Francisco's fabled Winterland Arena and a power-filled version of Viola Lee Blues from the infamous Harpur College show in May of 1970.

Enjoy!

About Wayne Hagen

Wayne is a founding member of the California Jug Band Association (CJBA) and a member of its Board of Directors. In 2002 Wayne and his banjo-playing buddy Andy began the International Jug Band Festival in Sutter Creek, California. The festival has given birth to new jug band festivals as far away as Louisville, Kentucky, as well as the CJBA.

Wayne has been playing jug since 1979 and he'll pull out his jug and play with anyone. He also tries to play the mandolin and is a big fan of Vol Stevens and Yank Rachell. His passion for jug band music has turned him into a walking encyclopedia of the genre. Go ahead, ask him a question -- we dare ya. He says that getting a chance to share his love for jug band music on KDRT is a great joy.
