Grateful Dead / Columbo / sleep enthusiast
prob lowest on my ranking of Donald Byrd x Mizell Bros collabs

but that is very relative, since it still a stone jammer (expected from a Mizell/Sky High production), all-time cover art (Hirschfeld portrait), and killer band (alphonse mouzon, patrice rushen, gary batrtz, james jamerson, etc)

dig!!!

on Jerry Garcia’s “Big Ears,” from Steve Silberman’s totally fantastic book in the April ‘78 box: an eclectic record collection, smoking joints& listening to stockhausen, name checking garcia’s fav guitarists, contemporary songwriters he dug, &a thoughtful reframing of the maligned Disco-Dead sound
