Jerry Garcia Band - 1980-07-26 - Asbury Park, NJ (Late Show) (SBD)

The year 1980 was marked by one memorable moment after another for Jerry Garcia, both with the Grateful dead and while out on his own.  The Dead celebrated their 15th anniversary in 1980, and rose to the occasion by delivering countless memorable performances - a spring East Coast tour that spawned the official release of 4 shows, 3 shows in Alaska, September run that saw the release of the 9/2, 9/3 and 9/4 shows plus a concert on 9/6 in Maine that just might have been the concert of the year, and finally the run of shows at the Warfield Theatre, Saenger Center and Radio City Music Hall that featured an acoustic set and 2 electric sets each night.  The Jerry Garcia Band also had its share of highlights in 1980, especially the February/March tour that saw the release of the February 28 and March 1 shows. This soundboard recording captures the JGB a little later in the year, in Asbury Park, NJ on July 26, 1980, 38 years ago today. While it may not be quite as hot as the Winter shows, the performance still finds Jerry in fine form.
