Book
The silver snarling trumpet : the birth of the Grateful Dead : the lost manuscript of Robert Hunter / foreword by John Mayer ; introduction by Dennis McNally ; afterword by Brigid Meier.
"Discovered at last, the legendary lost manuscript of Grateful Dead cofounder and primary lyricist Robert Hunter, written in the early 1960s--a ... remembrance of 'the scene' in Palo Alto that gave rise to an incredible partnership of Hunter and Jerry Garcia, and then to the Grateful Dead itself ... The lost manuscript is augmented with a foreword by John Mayer, an introduction by Dennis McNally, and an afterword by Brigid Meier, who was part of their scene in the San Francisco Bay Area that served as a bridge from the beatniks to the hippies. Also included is Hunter's own 1982 assessment of his work--about how he shared it with close confidants but then decided to leave it unpublished. Five years after Hunter's death, the text has been found, so readers and fans of Hunter's indelible poetry and song can explore the origin of his genius and his craft"--Dust jacket flap.
