  • review: [positive] Palmer 1977. When you strip away the counterculture baggage that others have burdened him with, Garcia's guitar playing is a "thoroughly American hybrid style. His roots in bluegrass and folkie jug bands are evident in everything he plays."
  • review: [positive] Kirby 1977. "For 105 minutes in the first of two shows at the Palladium, the Jerry Garcia Band ... delivered a first rate program of rock in various forms to the delight of a near-sellout for promoter Ron Delsener in association with John Scher. Unfortunately, however, the evening's only act went on more than 65 minutes late in an apparent attempt to disguise the relative shortness of the concert, which carried an $8.50 top. There was an innocuous mimed magician who performed for five minutes about midway through the delay, but this hardly amounted to an opener."
  • review: [negative] Stone 1977: JG guitar "simplistic … without any real originality"; Keith "trite, unimaginative and uninteresting … I doubt that … brother Godchaux could get a gig in your neighborhood piano bar"
