Mojo July 2025

Sold with Mojo July 2025 (#380). Not for resale. THE LEGEND OF THE GRATEFUL DEAD OFTEN PIVOTS on psychedelic largesse, on a spirit of musical exploration that transcends earthly limits. Listen to a live version of Dark Star – the 23-minute take on Live/Dead is a decent one to start with – and the Dead sound untethered from music’s history and conventions. The truth, though, is much richer and more complicated. Jerry Garcia and his bandmates started their adventures from a position of profound knowledge; an understanding of blues, bluegrass, soul, country and rock’n’roll that was both scholarly and intuitive.
