Publisher's Synopsis
In Dark Star we see Jerry Garcia through the eyes of those closest to him, who speak for the first time since his death: the ex-wives and lovers who lost him to the road, the close friends who watched him battle a long-running heroin habit, the children of fellow members of the Grateful Dead and the musicians who looked up to him as a guru. Together these voices present a striking portrait of a compelling artist - psychedelic guru, addict, outlaw and rock'n'roll icon.
