Dead Angel

5.0(2 customer reviews)

Author John Clark, who grew up with Garcia in San Francisco, reveals for the first time many experiences relevant not only to diehard 'Dead Head' fans, but to anyone intrigued with the turbulent culture of rock music and motorcycle gangs from the 1960s on. Among the questions Clark tackles are how he and Garcia first met outlaw bikers, and how Garcia conceived of the Grateful Dead. Viewable for the first time are several original photos of Jerry Garcia. Praise for the book's realism comes from those close to the action. Jerry Garcia's brother Cliff says it is 'the best book I have read about my Brother.' And according to Filthy Phil, Former President of Frisco Hell's Angels, 'Dead Angel is the best I have read about the Hell's Angels. It is the truth.'

5Dead Angel by Author John Clark is Delightful  Apr 12, 2010
By Frank J. "Frank J."
Author John Clark's Dead Angel is a masterpiece of storytelling.
From the memories of his lasting friendship with iconic legend and American Rock star
Jerry Garcia, Mr Clark weaves a warm and captivating account of Jerry from his
childhood days to the beginnings of his ascendancy as a rock idol.

Clark is able to bring the beauty of their childhood and of their struggles as the two
mature into adulthood in a delightfully charming way that brings the reader back to their
own earlier years.

More than a trip down memory lane the book gives insight into Jerry Garcia's formative years and
is invaluable to those seeking to understand the man behind the music as told by a friend who was
with him from the beginning.

A great read. I enjoyed every page. You will be delighted by this book
because of its warmth, sincerity and the author's beautiful writing style.

5Fascinating read!  Oct 31, 2011
By Montaukman
I would never consider myself a "Dead Head," yet I was very intrigued by this well written book. Many books have been penned about Jerry Garcia. This one chronicles his youth and is penned by his best friend, Mr. Clark. Then the gears shift and the author sheds light on nefarious biker gangs. Thumbs up, an interesting ride indeed!
