CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW -- 2/15/24

2001 ARCHIVE BROADCAST

THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  What a long, twangy trip it's been! 

From 2001: GRATEFUL DAWG is the story of two longtime friends: Grateful Dead frontman Jerry Garcia and the latter, bluegrass maestro David Grisman, and the special plane on which they met. Through interviews and rare "home movies" of Grisman and Garcia playing for the family, GRATEFUL DAWG shows a lesser-known side of a psychedelic music icon and the shared love for the purely-American genre of bluegrass. We dig deep into the archive for our 2001 chat with director Gillian Grisman and her dad David Grisman.
