Jerry Garcia, legendary lead guitarist for the Grateful Dead and David Grisman, virtuoso mandolinist and founder of 'Dawg' music . . . Now, for the first time ever, the musical matrimony and extraordinary friendship of Garcia and Grisman is traced in the award-winning documentary Grateful Dawg. Using rare concert footage, never-before-released recordings and exclusive home video of private jam sessions, Grateful Dawg reveals the unique Garcia - Grisman connection from their earliest days as budding bluegrass aficionados, through the renowned 1973 'Old and In the Way' sessions to the classic Garcia/Grisman Band albums that highlighted Jerry's final years.
