Bare Bones Prelude

Lyrics: None
Music: Garcia/Grisman

An instrumental recorded by Jerry Garcia and David Grisman. David Grisman explained:

"When Garcia and I went downstairs that first day to my newly-built studio, I set up some mics and checked the levels on Jerry strumming his Alvarez acoustic guitar. I pushed the record button, grabbed my mandolin and we were off and picking! What we played spontaneously for that first time in 15 years, is the 12-minute first track here, "Bare Bones Prelude", a musical foretelling of the many sessions that Jerry and I would record over the next five years."
