Jerry Garcia Band Run For The Roses LP Limited release Transparent GREEN Vinyl Exclusive Edition of 500

Run for the Roses" is a studio album by Jerry Garcia, the legendary guitarist, singer, and songwriter known for his work with the Grateful Dead. Released in 1982, it was Garcia's fourth solo album and showcased his diverse musical talents beyond the realm of psychedelic rock.

The album features a mix of original compositions and cover songs, blending elements of rock, folk, country, and Americana. Garcia's distinctive vocals and intricate guitar work shine throughout the record, accompanied by a talented group of musicians including John Kahn, Ron Tutt, and Melvin Seals.

The title track, "Run for the Roses," is a Garcia original and serves as the album's centerpiece. It's a reflective and melodic song that captures the essence of Garcia's songwriting style, with themes of love, longing, and the passage of time.

Other highlights from the album include Garcia's heartfelt rendition of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' on Heaven's Door," as well as the bluegrass-infused "Gomorrah" and the country-tinged "Valerie."

While "Run for the Roses" may not have achieved the same level of commercial success as Garcia's work with the Grateful Dead, it remains a beloved album among fans of his solo work. Its diverse musical influences and Garcia's soulful performances make it a standout in his discography, showcasing his enduring legacy as a pioneering figure in American music.
