The first time I saw Jerry Garcia solo was the late show on March 17, 1978, at the Capital Theatre in Passaic, NJ. The first song I heard him play - a cover of the Jimmy Cliff's, The Harder They Come. Garcia played that tune over 350 times in his various solo bands, making it the 2nd most played song behind How Sweet It Is. So, it was only fitting, that on Augut 26, 1989, 2 dozen years ago today as captured in this excellent audience recording, Cliff joined Garcia on stage, to sing what else, but the Harder They Come! By the way, Garcia was also fond of playing another Cliff tune, Sitting In Limbo, when performing live.
