Podcasts about Jerry Garcia

On August 9, 1995, Jerry Garcia — the guitarist, singer, and spiritual leader of the Grateful Dead — died of a heart attack at the age of 53 in a California rehab facility. In a career that spanned three decades, Garcia became one of the most iconic figures of the counterculture, guiding the Dead from the psychedelic streets of Haight-Ashbury to stadiums packed with devoted Deadheads. With his warm voice, improvisational guitar work, and unassuming presence, Garcia helped define the sound of an era while creating a community that stretched far beyond music.

Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!A special episode today to look at the huge amount of people who've recently died.  Obviously, Ozzy Osbourne is the most well-known, but there's gonna be a queue a mile long at the Pearly Gates as they try to process everyone!  Let's look at some highlights, such as Brian Wilson, Sly Stone, Aussie Col Joye, Hulk Hogan, David Johansen and Golden Earring's George Kooymans. We're also going to look at some of the 304 covers of Dylan's song, “Knockin' on Heaven's Door” - some great, some not so much! Our Album You Must Hear Before You Die is, inevitably, the self-titled debut, “Black Sabbath”. We'll look at the impact of this album which, although not the band's best, is credited with launching Heavy Metal itself! Stephen Colbert recently became our favourite US night-time TV host when he had Weird Al Yankovic as a guest to celebrate the “Kiss-Cam” scandal. Weird Al said “We're gonna do some Coldplay.”  When Colbert asked if he had a funny parody, Al said, “No.  I can't think of anything funnier than Coldplay.”    References: Colbert, Weird Al Yankovic, Coldplay, “Kiss Cam”, Trump, Michael Flatley, Lord of the Dance, Black Sabbath, Tony Iommi, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, “Master of the Macabre”, Mario Bava, Warren Zevon, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Guns'n'Roses, Eric Clapton, Roger McGuinn, Television, Sisters of Mercy, Jerry Garcia, Bryan Ferry, Dave Stewart, Cold Chisel, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Ozzy Osbourne, Brian Wilson , Sly Stone, Sly and the Family Stone, Col Joye, Hulk Hogan, David Lynn Thomas, James Baker, Paul Buckler, Paul Weller, The Jam, Rick Derringer, Edgar and Johnny Winter, Arthur Stern, "Cry Me a River", George Kooymans, Golden Earring, Chuck Mangione, Alf Clausen, The Simpsons, Tom Lehrer, David Johansen, New York Dolls, Bobby Sherman  Links PlaylistMichael Flatley Ozzy - Reality TV icon. Ozzy & the coke raid I am Frying Pan by Mac Sabbath Brian Wilson interviewThe Simpsons intro Tom Lehrer

Anders tells a jaw-dropping story of stealing a kid's BMX bike at 4 a.m. to ride six miles to cop from a bug-collecting dealer uptown. Bill shares how Anders helped him find recovery after years of vodka mornings and loneliness.The episode dives deep into recovery philosophy, spirituality, and Anders' realization after playing Jerry Garcia's guitar at Red Rocks that fame and status will never fill the void. They reflect on the “Send Me a Friend” foundation, their bond in recovery, and the meaning of service.Their segment ends with Anders' High Sierra butterfly story — a psychedelic nightmare/vision where he stripped naked and flapped around during a String Cheese Incident set on LSD, morphine, cocaine, and Dilaudid. Anders later connected the experience to his mother's deathbed promise to return to him as a butterfly, making the tale haunting and strangely spiritual.Then Howard 'Beach' Buksbaum Returns to share about his new black girl AI group 'lux'!

The Deadcast uses Blues For Allah's complicated instrumental Slipknot! to explore the musical and creative ambiguity the Grateful Dead pursued in early 1975, when there both was and wasn't a Grateful Dead, & their public reemergence at Bill Graham's S.N.A.C.K. benefit that March.Guests: David Lemieux, Ned Lagin, Ron Rakow, Steve Brown, Gary Lambert, Joan Miller, Jay Kerley, Chadwick Jenkins, Shaugn O'Donnell, Melvin BackstromSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Israel has approved a West Bank settlement plan that would split the territory and pave the way for thousands of apartments, drawing global criticism and threatening hopes of a Palestinian state. Gov. Newsom last year accused oil companies of “screwing” customers, but now he wants to increase oil drilling in Kern County to prevent a possible rise in gas prices in 2026. Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead were counterculture icons. But according to author Jim Newton, Garcia himself wasn’t particularly political. At least not publicly, or even in ways we might traditionally think. Forty-two cats in a traditional portrait setting. Felines filling the frame in an array of poses on blue and pink fabrics, bathed in soft light. The 1891 masterpiece "My Wife's Lovers" is just as fabulous as it sounds.

This month marks 30 years since the passing of Jerry Garcia, the iconic frontman for the Grateful Dead. Jim Newton, editor of Blueprint magazine at UCLA, where he teaches communication studies and public policy, and author of Here Beside the Rising Tide: Jerry Garcia, the Grateful Dead, and an American Awakening (Random House, 2025), joins to discuss the artist's legacy and his politics of "living freely."

Jim Newton joins us to discuss his new book "Here Beside the Rising Tide," exploring how Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead emerged from 1960s California to become unlikely architects of America's counterculture. Newton reveals Garcia as a reluctant icon who feared leadership yet created a multigenerational community that thrives decades after his death. We explore the Dead's anti-commercial ethos, their role as cultural catalysts rather than political activists, and how their California values of freedom and authenticity continue to influence everything from music to tech culture.

Historian and journalist Jim Newton discusses his new book, Here Beside The Rising Tide: Jerry Garcia, The Grateful Dead, And An American Awakening.

Hi. Spaff here. Some kids want to grow up to be President or cure cancer. My goal was to get a song on the Dr. Demento Show. I listened to it faithfully every Sunday night, often with headphones so my mom wouldn't overhear songs like "Making Love in a Subaru." In the early 2000s I somehow convinced Robert Lund, a Salt Lake radio personality, to record some of my song parody ideas, all of which I immediately sent to Dr. Demento. On November 28, 2004, he played "I Want Some Plastic Surgery for Christmas." I was giddy. Robert and I have since collaborated on over a hundred songs, and Dr. Demento has played a number of them. I remain giddy. So here's another. It's a tribute to Dr. Demento via a list of songs from the days he hooked me. (Needless to say, he has played countless more effing awesome comedy songs in the intervening years, some of which were created by the people reading this.) It's a parody of "Ripple," a song the Grateful Dead wrote and recorded in 1970, the year Barret Hansen became Dr. Demento. Pass the claret to me, Barret! May you forever stay demented. ~~~ CREDITS: Turns out Robert owns mandolins (plural) and has played them his whole life. Also he sang and played guitar and produced this recording. "Ripple" has lyrics by Robert Hunter and music by someone named Jerry Garcia. Dr. Demento brought all of these comedy songs to our attention, and the legendary titles listed here are the brain children of their various legendary parents. BUT I DID EVERYTHING ELSE.

This week marks 30 years since the death of Grateful Dead frontman and San Francisco native Jerry Garcia. Despite Garcia's disdain for government and politics, he navigated his band through the counterculture revolution of the 1960s and had a remarkable influence on American culture.  In a new biography of Garcia, writer and former Los Angeles Times journalist Jim Newton describes how Garcia did his best to shun politics even as the band performed in support of political causes. Scott talks with Newton about his book, “Here Beside the Rising Tide: Jerry Garcia, the Grateful Dead and an American Awakening."  Check out Political Breakdown's weekly newsletter, delivered straight to your inbox.

Bella's passion for 90s alternative and grunge music sparked a creative awakening that has since led her to The Grateful Dead and to performing with some of her heroes. Her story showcases not just her musical prowess but also her artistic inclinations in visual arts and film photography, with aspirations to create music videos on the horizon. We talk a bit about Bella's experiences navigating the Grateful Dead community and the jam band scene as a young female musician. She shares the thrill of playing with iconic instruments like Jerry Garcia's 'Tiger' and playing alongside notable musicians like Melvin Seals and John Kadlecik, and the unique support system her family provides along her journey. Bella candidly discusses the challenges she faces in a traditionally male-dominated space and her aspirations for writing original music. Her story highlights the power of music as a unifying force that transcends generational and stylistic boundaries, breathing new life into the legacy of bands like the Grateful Dead, Talking Heads, and Allman Brothers. This episode paints a colorful picture of Bella's journey from a creatively inclined homeschooler to a rising star in the music scene. We touch upon her early interests in soccer, theater, and visual arts, as well as her unexpected venture into singing and how it broadened her musical repertoire. Bella's tale is a testament to the excitement of new interpretations in music, and the inspiring role young artists play in offering fresh perspectives on classic tunes.

Someone is murdered every minute in the world. And one idiot hired day laborers to dispose of the people he killed. Orny keeps a death clock going on this episode. Orny discusses details about his next comedy special. Why we should NOT deport everyone. What's Wrong with Elvis, Jerry Garcia, Southwest Airlines, Amazon's delivery policy, pranks gone wrong involving fake human flesh and the time someone streaked at the Oscars.

Do you recognize the name, Owsley Stanley? If you're not a devoted Dead Head, probably not. But he's the guy who met the Dead when they had just formed, supplied them with LSD, and helped them form their psychedelic, jam band sound. He also supplied LSD to hundreds of thousands, if not millions of others hippies. It was his LSD that would truly fuel the counterculture movement of the late 1960s. The Summer of Love wouldn't have been nearly as magical as it was without Owsley's mind-expanding psychedelics. He was one-of-a-kind, and I hope you enjoy learning about his life as much as I did.  Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?
