Notes
"In May the Grateful Dead went back to the Site to work more on their new album, but once again the sessions, which lasted ten days, were disappointing. Garcia seemed unfocused and uninterested much of the time. Vince Welnick recalls, 'Jerry was there, but nobody in the band would press upon him to complete his guitar track or to put down a definitive vocal track. Occasionally Jerry would say, "I’ll get back to it later," or, "I’m going to sit it out because I’ve gotta hear what you guys are doing; I haven’t decided what I’m going to play." We didn’t get a whole lot done.' Indeed, when Phil Lesh listened to the session tapes after Garcia’s death to see if there was anything salvageable he came up empty-handed" (Jackson 1999, 443).
