"Fare Thee Well" by Joel Selvin

"Fare Thee Well" by Joel Selvin

book review by Riley Burnham 2/9/2024

pretty good(!)

essentially a biography of Grateful Dead's post-Garcia years

we get a hint of them at the outset, what the band was; until Jerry's passing in the mid-90s

we then get stories about the remaining members, groupies, wives, & successive bands vying for a piece of the huge audience GD had garnered

in the end, they recollect for a massively [financially] successful farewell tour -- Fare Thee Well

gonna have to bust out some vinyls & relive the magic
