The Golden Road Archives

Well folks this is it! El Ultimo! The Last One! Rumors of my pending return to West Virginia are true, and this week is my final show as host of the Golden Road! Like the Grateful Dead, the Band Beyond Description, my experience here at KDRT has been an experience beyond description, but all things must pass and I must say fare-thee-well to you all in radioland and all the awesome volunteers and the staff at the DRT. But fear not we have dandy of show this week on the Golden Road with cherry picked Grateful Dead tunes and a sit in by Rodriquez. 

We here at the Golden Road think that nothing says Seasons Greetings like Jerry “Spud Boy” Garcia and David “Dawg” Grisman playing music together. Thusly this week on the Golden Road, we have Spud Boy and Dawg recorded live at the Warfield Theater on December 8th, 1991. This is the middle night of a three-night stand and Jerry and David are in very fine form and spirits and deliver a stellar performance (including their incredible version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen!). Fortunately, this mighty fine show was captured in all its glory by soundman John Cutler and we present his recording to you here this week.
