MP3 Boot Camp: The Other (Better) Bruce

October 18, 2007 by Scott Bernsteinin Hidden Track6 Comments

Bruce “I was the best keyboard player the Grateful Dead ever had” Hornsby counts many amateur and professional musicians among his myriad fans. And some of these musicians have collaborated on Caesar Salad — a freely downloadable album worth of Hornsby cover tunes. The tracks are well worth your listen, and we especially dig the Danish cover band Way It Is’ take on Fields of Grey.

Ever heard RAQ play the Way It Is? I don’t know the particular show I have it from, but it’s incredible.

Can’t way to get my hands on some of those Hornsby covers…he did a WONDERFUL job with The Band’s King Harvest on Endless Highway that it’s only fair people do him justice as well.

Thanks for sharing the Phish shows. I’m not a fan, but was at the show on the 17th and really enjoyed their performance. Any idea if any of the other sets from that show showed up online? Many thanks again.
