Jerry Garcia/ David Grisman-Arabia (end) (2/2/91 rehearsal)

[MrCraigary123]

Guys, the drum is a darbuka....a north African drum....places. like Egypt. Also Turkey and Greece in those areas. The one he is playing appears to be a Turkish style

[MrCraigary123]

This is sweet! I'm a lead guitarist as well as a darbuka player! I freaking love Jerry! One of my biggest idols! I try to mimic his playing in every way!

i mean the album version

[OCIRELCNU]

can someone upload the garcia grisman version of this please

[BWilliamsAA7237]

the version I'm thinking of is like nine + minutes... ????

[patkoz82]

@BWilliamsAA7237 around 16 min

[BWilliamsAA7237]

w/ the stand up bass solo? or is this it?

[BWilliamsAA7237]

where's the version from the shady grove album? or a studio one?

[blewj]

Djembe is West African in origin. It just doesn't sound the same when non-Africans play it.

[BWilliamsAA7237]

@blewj shut up critter boy, your fucking ignorant

[coreymineard]

It's a talking drum, not a djembe.

But thank you for playing.

[cintaman500]

The Drum is African Djembe..more North African style and played

[666vocals831]

[EsamHammad]

what instrument is that exactly?

[thefreakbutcher]

mandolin

[4dorkyambers]

African drum? My sis plays somthing like that. IT sounds kinda the same...

[Bortherhood]

I like this version!

[konfederate6277144]

I have been searching for this song for like 5 years....yes!

[folly5girl]

@konfederate6277144 You need to hear the full version... it blows my mind... on Garcia/Grisman... which is their self titled first release from 1991. That whole album is incredible, but Arabia is undeniable!

[markhollinger]

The bassist is James Kerwin
