Bare Bones Volume I includes seven master takes from longtime friends and collaborators Jerry Garcia and David Grisman’s ‘90s albums Garcia/Grisman, Shady Grove and Been All Around This World.

Most of the remaining tracks on Volume 1 originally appeared on 1993’s Not For Kids Only. Garcia and Grisman tracked Not For Kids Only as a duo with “percussion, fiddle, autoharp, vocal harmonies, and yes, even insects,” as per a press release, overdubbed while Jerry was out on the road. Bare Bones Volume 1 presents the unadorned tracks with just Garcia and Grisman.
