While we lost Jerry on August 9, 1995, his spirit and music lives on 3 decades later. The surviving members of the Grateful Dead have continued to play music in various configurations such as The Other Ones, the Dead, Furthur, ratdog, Phil Lesh & Friends, and Dead & Company, just to name a few. Musicians such as Warren Haynes, who were inspired by Jerry, have played tribute concerts in his honor, such as the Symphonic Celebration we posted yesterday. Today we bring you another tribute, an FM broadcast from August 4, 2017, 8 years ago today, a concert featuring Bob Weir and a host of friends celebrating what would have been Jerry Garcia's 75th birthday on August 1 of that year.
