{"product_id":"the-grateful-dead-in-concert-jim-tuedio-9780786443574","title":"The Grateful Dead in Concert: Essays on Live Improvisation","description":"\u003cp\u003e This book offers a spirited analysis of the unique improvisational character of Grateful Dead music and its impact on appreciative fans. The 20 essays capture distinct facets of the Grateful Dead phenomenon from a broad range of scholarly angles. The band's trademark synergizing focus is discussed as a function of complex musical improvisation interlaced with the band members' collective assimilation of an impressive range of marginal musical forms and lyrical traditions. These facets are shown to produce a vibrant Deadhead experience, resulting in community influences still morphing in new directions 45 years after the band's initial impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jim Tuedio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 078644357X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786443574\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 365\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Jim Tuedio","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44058193953023,"sku":"9780786443574","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_096b3fc2-be84-4158-b4e3-c824f57e6882.jpg?v=1685051174","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-grateful-dead-in-concert-jim-tuedio-9780786443574","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
