In mid-August, I chatted with journalist Jim Newton at Booksmith in SF about his newly released Here Beside the Rising Tide: Jerry Garcia, The Grateful Dead, and an American Awakening, which is out now.

We touched on:

Garcia’s allergy to politics and endorsements
Jerry Brown asking for help… and getting turned down

What kept Deadheads coming back, year after year
