Jerry Garcia's brief sojourn from the Grateful Dead allowed him time to explore his personal affection for bluegrass music. Combining that traditional genre with a contemporary approach, Garcia joined forces with like-minded Bay Area musicians to form Old And In The Way. His involvement naturally brought an element of notoriety to the band that would inevitably help in securing the legacy they enjoy today. Of their occasional performances in California in 1973, their performance for KSAN-fm on 21st April, 1973 at the Record Plant, Sausalito, remains possibly their finest. Klondike's retrospective spotlight on Old And In The Way and their seminal performance for KSAN-fm provides a valuable snapshot of their ability to provide improvisational and contemporary flare coupled with the respect for traditional bluegrass music that the band sincerely guarded.
