Just in time for Halloween, the Jerry Garcia Archive will release two more installments in the Pure Jerry live series. In October 1987, Garcia played an unprecedented 18-show engagement leading up to Halloween at New York’s Lunt-Fontanne Theatre. ‘Jerry on Broadway: Acoustic & Electric’ was masterminded by Bill Graham and featured two acts: Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band and Jerry Garcia Band. Lunt-Fontanne, New York City: October 31, 1987, a four-disc set, will contain every note of Garcias Halloween matinee and evening performances featuring sets from both bands. The Jerry Garcia Estate will also issue Lunt-Fontanne, New York City: The Best of the Rest of October 1987, a three-disc compilation culled from the two-week engagement, with two discs of electric JGB and a single disc of all the acoustic songs not performed on Halloween. The release also features detailed liner notes by Blair Jackson, frequent Relix contributor and author of Garcia: An American Life. The Pure Jerry series is available exclusively through www.jerrygarcia.com.
