The Grateful Dead are one of the most influential rock and roll bands of all time, but every story has a start. The Grateful Dead Origins takes an in depth and personal look at the formation of one of the most important American rock bands of all time, exploring the early days of Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Pigpen, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart, and their transition from being a bar cover band to one of the greatest sounds in history.

    This is a great graphic novel musical mash-up that does more than any Wikipedia page can do. So whether you're a seasoned Dead Head, a student of musical history, or just somebody looking for an entertaining read with great art, go out and get yourself a copy of this. You'll learn a lot about these guys as the story takes you on their long, strange trip. Read Full Review

    Is this review extremely low-hanging fruit for me? Am I writing this review while listening to a stellar Loser from May 19, 1977, at the Fox Theater? Yes, yes I am. The Grateful Dead means different things to different people. This book starts that explanation, and as a fan of both the band and this book. I hope that Miskiewicz and Van Sciver come out for a second set and finish The Greatest Story Ever Told. Read Full Review
