The songs for Jer's first album "Garcia" was published a while back, paperback, brown cover. I think it's OP now.

Looks like a lot of good Jer tunes and tunes he covered also.

I just happened to see that book on Monday at the local Guitar Center (I was just killing time :-). I thought it looked pretty good. Just 2-3 pages per song, and lots and lots of songs.

That book is very good and helped me learn "Russian Lullabye" ... by Irving Berlin but re-interpreted by garcia.

http://www.rukind.org/ has chords and lyrics for pretty much all Dead tunes and some tabbed guiter parts. Converting to mando is an excerise left to the reader.

Minglewood Blues is great on mando.

I also like doing Friend of the Devil and I Know You Rider (which the Bluegrass Fakebook attributes to the Seldom Scene, even though Wiki claims differently). And even though "technically" a New Riders of the Purple Sage song, Glendale Train is also great for the mando.

BTW, I heard DGQ on the GD Channel tonight playing Darkstar. Simply incredible!

I just heard a version of "Brown Eyed Girl" today on XM satellite radio done by Emory Joseph on his new "fennario:Songs of Garcia/Hunter" CD.
I wasn't familiar with Emory and his work but was blown away with the Mandolin comping on this track.
Got home and on the computer & discovered that GRISMAN was the player.

Has anyone heard this whole CD?
