Description

The Grateful Dead Origins is a personal and in-depth look at the formation of one of America's most influential rock bands. This graphic novel explores the early days of Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Pigpen, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart as they transitioned from a bar cover band to one of the greatest sounds in history. The story takes you through the San Francisco Haight Ashbury era, where the band became the house band for psychedelic "acid tests" hosted by Ken Kesey. You'll experience the highs and lows of the tightly knit community that grew around them, leading up to their historic performance at Woodstock. This official Graphic Novel also features an accompanying album of rare Grateful Dead music. By exploring the beginning of this iconic American rock band, The Grateful Dead Origins offers a unique perspective on the events that shaped their legendary sound.
