Guaraldi spent the summer of 1972 at the Pierce (not Pier) Street Annex, leading a band that included Seward McCain (bass), Vince Denham (sax) and Clark. Garcia joined them on occassion, at which times the group was billed as the Vince Guaraldi/Jerry Garcia Band. Guaraldi also stepped in to jam with Garcia at the Matrix on many Monday evenings during the first quarter of 1970. All this information can be found on my Guaraldi Timeline, at http://fivecentsplease.org/dpb/VinceGuaralditimeline.html. But we must distinguish between Guaraldi jamming with Garcia, as opposed to Guaraldi jamming with the Grateful Dead ... and solid evidence of the latter has yet to surface.Derrick Banghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12885694730612878577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4051519380220252201.post-34830546147448215212022-02-05T19:51:39.554-08:002022-02-05T19:51:39.554-08:00Mike Clark ( best known for drumming with Herbie H...Mike Clark ( best known for drumming with Herbie Hancock’s Headhunters) says the venue Garcia played with Vince Guraldi was Pier St Annex on Fillmore Sambahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00654090811851359851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4051519380220252201.post-89805962389792649152016-05-31T08:30:28.922-07:002016-05-31T08:30:28.922-07:00Well who knows?

Perhaps there's a quantum electrical spirit party going down in the cosmos somewhere with the two of them et al.<br />Alas, the band in space is getting bigger. I'm not in a hurry to get there but it will be a great show.Sundreamriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10118766762226199294noreply@blogger.com
