Just as the hype sticker on the front of this CD says so well ... " The First Step on the Path to Planet Drum - Featuring Jerry Garcia on Two Tracks " !!! Wow ... as I do suppose that this was indeed the " 1st Step " towards Mickey Hart's 1991 studio album " Planet Drum " - which also featured Jerry Garcia ... but, this Album stands way-out on it's own - as just flat-out Mean !!! I mean really Fans ... as this is the kind of high-caliber Percussion that any quality Percussion-Lover dreams about !!! In other words ... this would be like comparing Mid-'70's John McLaughlin ' Shakti ' to Early-2000's John McLaughlin ' Return To Shakti ' - if, you know what I'm saying there ... both Excellent ! - but, the '70's stuff just completely blows you back, and I mean way-back in your easy chair ! Heavy-duty & Heavenly ! Percussion-fueled Music ! - Noise !! - Sound !!! & Tone !!!! Wow !!! This was originally released on Album Vinyl ! ' in ' 1976 - and wasalso released somewhere in like the Late-'80's / Early-'90's on the Ryko label on CD, and now finally ... released as part of " The Mickey Hart Collection " - as shown nicely through the front panel of the CD spine. I'll let the Music ! do the rest of the talking from here, but this I will say ... This ! Fans is one of those " Real Deal !
