Song Review: Jerry Garcia Band - “The Harder They Come” (Live, Feb. 13, 1976)

“The Harder They Come;” Feb. 13, 1976; on which the Jerry Garcia Band stretches Jimmy Cliff’s tune to one-third of an hour without resorting to aimless musical wanderings.

Out to announce the full-show - save for the lost “How Sweet it Is (To be Loved by You)” opener - release as GarciaLive Volume 21, this version is loose-fitting and slow-to-unfold, leaving plenty of room for John Kahn’s riffing on bass and Garcia’s similarly low-end solos to bubble to the surface. Keith Godchaux, meanwhile, opts for high piano sparkling on the sonic water.

After choruses from Garcia with Donna Jean Godchaux on harmony, the song moves into a long instrumental section before drummer Ron Tutt wills a climax around the 12-minute mark. More vocals follow before Tutt and the band spend the final 90 seconds doing it again.

The sound quality is pristine and with the music so subtle, it’s fun to hear an out-of-his-head fan yelling, whoooo! over and over.

Out June 14, GarciaLive Volume 21 will include “How Sweet it Is” and the first-known performance of “My Sisters and Brothers” as recorded Feb. 15, 1976, to round out the LP.

There were days

And there were days

And there were days I know

When all we ever wanted

Was to learn and love and grow

Once we grew into our shoes

We told them where to go

Walked halfway around the world

On promise of the glow

Walked upon a mountain top

Walked barefoot in the snow

Gave the best we had to give

How much we'll never know we'll never know

August 1, 1942 - August 9, 1995

Producers Seek $24K to Get Nicky Hopkins Documentary Made

- “The Session Man” is finished; 39 tracks need licensing

If anyone is ever going to see “The Session Man,” producers need to raise $24,000 to license 39 tracks for the Nicky Hopkins documentary

Touted as “rock ’n’ roll’s greatest session man,” by narrator Bob Harris, Hopkins, who died in 1994, played on more more than 250 albums over his 30-year career. Over those decades, Hopkins was a member of Quick Silver Messenger Service, the Jeff Beck Group and the Jerry Garcia Band and played alongside the likes of John Lennon, the Kinks, Joe Cocker, Zero, Meat Loaf, the Rolling Stones and others.

“He could play just about anything,” Keith Richards says in the trailer for the film.

The Michael Treen-directed documentary is finished. But it cannot be shown to potential distributors at film festivals until licensing is secured.

Harry Shearer sums up why Hopkins - and his instrument - were so important to the bands he assisted.

“Piano has all the colors - can say anything,” Shearer says. “And a guy who’s as talented as Nicky can take a simple song and fill it with all sorts of extra feeling and meaning.”

Donations can be made here.
