Summary of Grateful Dawg

AN INSIDE LOOK AT TWO MUSICAL POWERHOUSES, GRATEFUL DAWGGUITARIST JERRY GARCIA AND MANDOLINIST DAVID GRISMAN, THATSHOWCASES THE DYNAMIC DUO'S MUSICAL MAGIC THROUGH RARE CONCERTFOOTAGE, UNRELEASED AUDIO TRACKS AND LIVING ROOM JAM SESSIONS.
Jerry Garcia was famous as the visionary behind the Grateful Dead, but his musical tastes were broad, and he found a rewarding partnership with mandolinist David Grisman, whose distinctive "Dawg" style fused jazz with bluegrass. At its best, Grateful Dawg celebrates the easy friendship and truly inspired musicianship of Garcia and Grisman through grainy home-movie footage with surprisingly crisp sound. As one of the film's commentators says, Grisman made Garcia tighter as a musician, while Garcia made Grisman looser, and where they met they created an infectious, rootsy style they called Grateful Dawg. The film's many highlights include instrumental versions of "Dawg Waltz," "Shady Grove," and "Arabia," as well as splendid footage from Garcia and Grisman's days in Old & in the Way. The talking heads inserted ham-handedly between and over performances, unfortunately, become repetitious and, finally, downright annoying. But Garcia and Grisman fans will still enjoy the glimpse at a rare musical alchemy. --Anne Hurley
