It's been years since I've played any of the music that James Booker created with Jerry Garcia. They played two live shows and one rehearsal, all between 1/7/76-1/10/76. For those that don't know, James Booker was an amazing piano player from New Orleans with one eye. He had a troubled past, but he was also a musical genius on the keys though known to be quite eccentric. This might be one reason why he and Jerry didn't play more often. It is said that he refused to learn any of the Jerry songs and actually had the impression that Jerry, Kahn, and Tutt were to be his backing band.
Here's some stories about that time.
EDIT 3/11/17: Asher Fulero Band will NOT be on today. One of the members in the band is not feeling well. We will be working to schedule them for the near future.
Then, I'm really happy to welcome the Asher Fulero Band to perform in-studio. One of my favorite local bands to see. I think everyone is going to enjoy this intimate set of music.
