Concert Review: Dead and Company Still Alive and Kickin’

Robert Hunter did as much to shape the sound and influence of the Grateful Dead as guitarist Jerry Garcia did.

Rock Review: Dead & Co. — Still Kicking

Wisely, guitarist John Mayer does not try to copy Jerry Garcia’s memorable licks, solos, tones, and styles.
