Garcia Live Volume 20


GarciaLive Volume 20 is a two-CD live album by the Jerry Garcia Band. It contains the complete concert recorded on June 18, 1982, at the Cape Cod Coliseum in South Yarmouth, Massachusetts. It also includes bonus tracks recorded on June 1, 1981, at The Stone in San Francisco. It was released on June 30, 2023.
At the June 18, 1982 show, the Jerry Garcia Band shared the bill with Bobby and the Midnites. According to the album liner notes, Bob Weir, Bobby Cochran, and Billy Cobham sat in on the song "They Love Each Other", but due to a technical issue they can not be heard on the recording.

Critical reception

Glide Magazine wrote, "As... Blair Jackson points out in his liner notes... the JGB was an ever-evolving cast of characters. Yet even in its constantly-altered forms, all those involved invariably sang and played as all the participants do here, that is, with all the urgency and commitment of the group's namesake. No one is in a hurry, however, anywhere on the complete, previously unreleased performance in the Bay State's vacationland."
