T
his handsome
book from the
Grateful Dead is
every fan’s delight.
David Dodd meticu-
lously annotated the
lyrics to the band’s origi-
nal songs sung in con-
certs and/or recorded in
studios for more than 40
years.
Dodd’s research in-
cluded e-mails from le-
gions of devoted follow-
ers of the band. This en-
cyclopedic information is colorfully detailed
and enhanced by more than 200 original il-
lustrations from Eugene’s own Jim
Carpenter. Also on the home front, Eugenean
Alan Trist worked with Dodd to edit the
nearly 500-page volume for publication.
Tsunami Books will host a love fest for
the trio at 4:30 pm
Friday, Oct. 14, with
book-signing, wine-tast-
ing and congratulations
all around. At 7 pm the
festivities continue at the
McDonald Theatre with
music by Dark Star
Orchestra and more
book-signing
by
Carpenter, Dodd and
Trist. One of the sea-
son’s literary highlights,
these shindigs are not to
be missed.
