NOT THE BROM

Thanks for mentioning my 1971 interview with Jerry Garcia for Jazz & Pop magazine (Pop Eye, Jan. 12).

Two interesting notes: At the time, the Grateful Dead were so unprofitable for Warner Bros. that whenever they played in New York, they couldn’t even afford to stay in Manhattan. The interview was done at a Holiday Inn in New Jersey. Who knew?

And, while I may have a better voice than him (who doesn’t?), I am not the “folk-blues guitarist David Bromberg� to whom you referred. The term “guitar wizard� has never applied to me.
