David Murry Octet, Dark Star CD
David Murray Octet--Dark Star
[The Music of the Grateful Dead]
Price $15.98
David Murray has jammed with the Dead before, and dedicates this album to Garcia. It is a jazz treatment of several GD tunes. This is real jazz, played by master musicians who actually read music! Dark Star is the standout of course, but if you like jazz, and you like Dead tunes, you oughtta dig this CD.
The tunes:
Shakedown Street
Samson and Delilah
Estimated Prophet
Dark Star
China Doll
One More Saturday Night
Shoulda Had Been Me (w/Bob Weir on accoustic guitar)
