DAVID GRISMAN & JERRY GARCIA - Garcia Grisman Alternate
David Grisman & Jerry Garcia – Garcia Grisman Alternate (2012)
In celebration of the late Jerry Garcia‘s 70th birthday, David Grisman unveils a new collection of nine previously unreleased alternate takes from 1991’s album Jerry Garcia / David Grisman in high-definition (24 bit, 96 khz) format.
Garcia Grisman Alternate affords listeners an opportunity to enjoy “Grateful Dawg” music in a sonically superior format with different versions of “The Thrill Is Gone,” “Friend of the Devil,” “Russian Lullaby,” “Arabia” and five others, providing insight into how these two legendary American musicians approached this material.
According to producer Grisman, “Our sessions were always informal, and all of these takes are except- ional performances. They are just as vibrant as the original selected masters and perhaps even better!”

BIOGRAPHY
By ProgArchives, Wikipedia, Sound Resources
Glass Hammer is a symphonic-progressive rock band from the United States. They formed in 1992 when multi-instrumentalists Steve Babb and Fred Schendel began to write and record Journey of the Dunadan, a concept album based on the story of Aragorn from J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy. To their surprise, the album sold several thousand units via the Internet, The QVC Shop-At-Home Network and phone orders, leaving Babb and Schendel convinced that the band was a project worth continuing.
While many musicians have appeared on Glass Hammer albums over the years, Babb and Schendel have remained the core of the band. Both play a variety of instruments, but Babb mainly concentrates on bass guitar and keyboards while Schendel plays keyboards, various guitars and drums until the addition of live drummer Matt Mendians to the studio recording band in 2004. They also sing, although a number of other vocalists have also handled lead vocal duties including Michelle Young, Walter Moore, Carl Groves, Susie Bogdanowicz and Jon Davison. Worthy of mention, Yes vocalist Jon Anderson provided backup vocals on two songs from 2007's Culture of Ascent.
Lyrically, Glass Hammer is inspired mostly by their love of literature (most notably Tolkien, C. S. Lewis and John Krakauer) and Babb's love of Victorian prose and medieval mythology.
Musically, they lean towards 70's driven symphonic rock, with strong keyboard orientation; specifically Hammond organs in the tradition of ELP. They have a superb melodic flow to the music they make, encapsulating real power and dynamics without ever becoming overpowering. Their most apparent influences are Yes, ELP, Genesis, and, to a less noticeable extent, Camel. While Glass Hammer have, for the most part, combined those influences into a characteristic style of their own, they made much more direct references to the aforementioned bands on their 2000 album Chronometree and the 2010 release If. Without a doubt, GH remain one of the most popular groups in the progressive rock genre. All the albums are very conceptual, and there is great musicianship overall.
Current band members include co-founders Steve Babb (bass guitar and keyboards), Fred Schendel (keyboards and guitar) along with Alan Shikoh (guitar) and lead vocalist Jon Davison.

GOV'T MULE - Dark Side of the Mule
Gov’t Mule – Dark Side of the Mule [Deluxe Edition] (2014)
Back in 2008, Gov’t Mule played an epic three-hour gig at Boston’s Orpheum Theatre on Halloween night. The second set that evening saw the jam band performing a setlist comprised entirely of Pink Floyd covers. Now, as the first entry in a newly launched archival campaign, Gov’t Mule is releasing that memorable concert as a live covers album dubbed Dark Side of the Mule.
The archival series seeks to use various performances from the band’s extensive vault to showcase their evolution over the years. “These new archival live releases just further [the concept of 2013’s Shout!, which sounds like Gov’t Mule but doesn’t sound like anything we had ever done],” guitarist Warren Haynes told Classic Rock, “and allow us to highlight some of our influences as well as how far we’ve come since the first album.”
