Review Jerry Garcia, David Grisman & Tony Rice - The Pizza Tapes (2000)

[JimmyByrne09]

On February 4th and 5th of 1993, Jerry Garcia, David Grisman and Tony Rice all came together to record a series of tracks which would later be named 'The Pizza Tapes'.

'The Pizza Tapes' got its name because the songs were recorded on several cassette tapes for each musician that contributed to the project. When Jerry Garcia ordered pizza one night, the pizza man snuck in to Garcia's house, and snatched his copy of the two night recording session. Bootleg copies of the album were passed around through many hands, then in 2000, David Grisman released the tapes officially for the entire public.
