Grateful Dead – Rockin’ Bobby

Rockin’ Bobby
A Bob Weir / Grateful Dead Compilation

Here is the info file from Chris Davis, the guy who compiled this and uploaded it to ETREE:

I think its high time for a Bobby compilation. With Garcia, its easy to put together this type of set. Garcia had good nights, and bad nights. With Weir, almost every night is a “good night”. So, this set is a little more difficult. Some of the versions “rock”, some are more beautiful. Each has its charm, and I hope they demonstrated how under-rated Wier is as a guitarist; and a monster vocalist!

My humble thanks to Jake Feinberg for his info and inspiration. This kid knows his Dead! And, like me, Jake was a Bobby Fan long before it was “cool”…thanks jake…Cd
