On this day, December 6, 1988, the Jerry Garcia Acoustic Band released Almost Acoustic, a live album capturing their heartfelt and intimate performances. The recordings were taken from shows at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco and the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles during 1987.

Featuring a blend of folk, bluegrass, and traditional Americana, Almost Acoustic showcased Jerry Garcia’s passion for acoustic music alongside band members like David Nelson and Sandy Rothman. The album included renditions of classics like “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” and “Oh, Babe, It Ain’t No Lie,” offering a stripped-down, soulful experience for fans of Garcia’s diverse musical talents.
