This is a very scarce original A.R.T. Benefit program from 1989 which included many musical guests and performances. The show featured the art of the legendary Big 5: Rick Griffin Stanley Mouse Victor Moscoso Alton Kelley and Wes Wilson. The Grateful Dead’s Jerry Garcia performed acoustic as “Garcia & Friends” with John Kahn on bass and special guest Bob Weir on guitar & vocals. They played an amazing 6 song set which included celebrated renditions of “Bird Song” and the Lowell George song “Easy to Slip”. Jerry also sat in with Country Joe McDonald on “Starship Ride” and “Lady With The Lamp”. Rare Jerry Garcia original show programs are highly sought after and collectible in their own rite. We’ve never offered this program before however we sold the original poster for this benefit show a few months ago. This program also advertises the Big 5 "Joint Show" at the Psychedelic Shop on March 25th.
