THE FOOTNOTES BIBLIOGRAPHY 34 INTRODUCTION I'm not trying to cause a big sensation I'm just ttitkirtg 'bout my generation. -Peter Townshend (for The Who) 1 The problem with trying to write a paper on the subject of rock is that the field is so diverse and varied that it is all but impossible to describe everything in complete detail. Furthermore, the entire subject of the effects of rock on a listening audience varies considerably from listener to listener. The teen-ager just likes, the sound of the music and the feelings that the music brings out in him, while the adult still thinks of rock as a lot of noise no matter how many magazine articles they read or TV programs they see.

Mill Valley Oral History Program a Collaboration Between the Mill Valley Historical Society and the Mill Valley Public Library
Mill Valley Oral History Program A collaboration between the Mill Valley Historical Society and the Mill Valley Public Library David Getz An Oral History Interview Conducted by Debra Schwartz in 2020 © 2020 by the Mill Valley Public Library TITLE: Oral History of David Getz INTERVIEWER: Debra Schwartz DESCRIPTION: Transcript, 60 pages INTERVIEW DATE: January 9, 2020 In this oral history, musician and artist David Getz discusses his life and musical career. Born in New York City in 1940, David grew up in a Jewish family in Brooklyn. David recounts how an interest in Native American cultures originally brought him to the drums and tells the story of how he acquired his first drum kit at the age of 15. David explains that as an adolescent he aspired to be an artist and consequently attended Cooper Union after graduating from high school. David recounts his decision to leave New York in 1960 and drive out to California, where he immediately enrolled at the San Francisco Art Institute and soon after started playing music with fellow artists. David explains how he became the drummer for Big Brother and the Holding Company in 1966 and reminisces about the legendary Monterey Pop Festival they performed at the following year. He shares numerous stories about Janis Joplin and speaks movingly about his grief upon hearing the news of her death. David discusses the various bands he played in after the dissolution of Big Brother and the Holding Company, as well as the many places he performed over the years in Marin County. He concludes his oral history with a discussion of his family: his daughters Alarza and Liz, both of whom are singer- songwriters, and his wife Joan Payne, an actress and singer.

ROCK and KEYSER ROLL Music In My Life My Life In Music Dedicated to all the venues, bookers, house and stage managers, sound and lighting techs, promoters, publicists, photographers and videographers and roadies who have supported me and the bands I have represented over the past four plus decades. It is an honor and a privilege to work with so many highly talented musicians. I am filled with gratitude for the road I have traveled, and look forward to many more years of helping to bring live music to the world! Cover photo J.C. Juanis Cover lettering Mike Dolgushkin © 2021 Music has always been my passion. As a young guy I remember riding the #37 bus downtown to stop at the record store to pick up the latest albums. From my hometown of Baltimore I listened to WCAO radio Top 40 hits, and watched The Buddy Deane Dance Party every day after school. My early musical heroes were Dion, Paul Anka, Neil Sedaka, Little Eva, Ray Charles, Chubby Checker, Gene Pitney, Roy Orbison, The Four Tops and, Stevie Wonder…. My parents were also music fans. Here are few photos from back in their day…. Debbie Reynolds ? My mom My dad (dark suit) watching Eddie Fisher at Grossinger’s Resort in the Catskills circa 1958 After dinner with Harpo Marx and his wife at their Hollywood home, Harpo serenaded circa 1963 My first foray into the music world happened on my last day of 4th grade at Liberty School #64. Dr. Carlin, the music teacher, came into our classroom. He told us that next year, in 5th grade, we could be in the school orchestra.

Jefferson's Tree of Liberty 9/3/08 2:17 AM
Music Review: Jefferson Starship - Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty 9/3/08 2:17 AM Blogcritics is an online magazine, a community of writers and readers from around the globe. Publisher: Eric Olsen REVIEW Music Review: Jefferson Starship - Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty Written by David Bowling Published August 31, 2008 Life is good as founding member Paul Kantner remains in control of The Jefferson Starship. Long time cohort David Freiberg is still around as is guitarist Mark Aguilar. Cathy Richardson is now the lead female vocalist. She starred in the off Broadway production about Janis Joplin’s life. Richardson’s voice is powerful and pure but is closer to a Grace Slick sound than Joplin’s, which should come as no surprise. Even Marty Balin joins the Starship for a couple of tunes. Jefferson’s Tree Of Liberty finds the Starship traveling in a new and unique musical direction. Succinctly put, this is a folk album. Songs such as “Pastures Of Plenty” by Woody Guthrie, “Chimes Of Freedom” by Bob Dylan, and “I Ain’t Marching Anymore” by Phil Ochs are all presented in classic vocal form. Kantner and The Jefferson Starship can’t quite escape their rock ‘n’ roll roots as the instrumental background veers from the classic folk formula. Think the Weavers in rock mode. The first track sets the tone for most of the album. The old Weavers tune, “Wasn’t That A Time,” features the voices of Kantner, Freiberg, and Richardson. Richardson provides a wonderful balance on most of the harmonies contained on the album.

Though he disavowed the role, Garcia was viewed by many as the leader or "spokesman" of the group. One of its founders, Garcia performed with the Grateful Dead for their entire thirty-year career (1965–1995). Garcia also founded and participated in a variety of side projects, including the Saunders-Garcia Band (with longtime friend Merl Saunders), the Jerry Garcia Band, Old and in the Way, the Garcia/Grisman acoustic duo, Legion of Mary, and the New Riders of the Purple Sage (which Garcia co-founded with John Dawson and David Nelson).
