Phil Lesh first met Jerry Garcia in 1959 in the clubs of Palo Alto, California. At Gar-cia's suggestion, Lesh learned to play the electric bass and joined him in a new group that blended R & B, country, and rock 'n' roll with an experimental fervor never before heard. Now, in time for the Grateful Dead's fortieth anniversary, Phil Lesh offers the first behind-the-scenes history of the Dead - a story no one will ever know as he does. Lesh chronicles how the Dead's sig-nature sound emerged, flowed, and swelled to reach millions of devoted fans, from their earliest gigs at Frenchy's Bikini-A-Go-Go for an audience of three, to the legendary Acid Tests, to packed stadiums around the world. In San Francisco during the Summer of Love, at Woodstock, Altamont, and the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Grateful Dead have been at the center of some of rock's defining moments. Phil Lesh recounts what it's been like to live at the heart of this whirlwind, on tour and in the studio, impressing the likes of Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie and sharing the stage with Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, and the Rolling Stones. He tells of making uncompromis-ingly original music with fellow musicians Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann, Pigpen, Mickey Hart, and especially Jerry Garcia, the charismatic, enigmatic soul of the band. He reveals the stories behind songs like "Dark Star," "Viola Lee Blues," "Uncle John's Band," and his legendary composi-tion "Box of Rain." And in intimate detail Lesh describes what it was like to storm heaven night after night - and the price he and others have paid. Bad manage-ment, drug addictions, depression, and insecurities persistently plagued the band members and would culminate with the most tragic blow of all - the death of Jerry Garcia. Somehow, despite the difficulties, the band remained strong - because for Lesh and the rest of the members of the Grate-ful Dead, the music was the reason they were standing onstage together every night. Searching for the Sound is a ruth-lessly honest look inside one of the great-est American bands, written with humor, intelligence, and a deep affection that only Phil Lesh himself could provide. Phil Lesh has been the bass player for the Grateful Dead since their formation in 1965. He lives in California. ISBN 9780316009980 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 598. Codice articolo 1261644
