Synopsis

The Dead Trilogy is the longest longitudinal study of an American band ever conducted. Harrison is the Jane Goodall of Rock and Roll. I recommend it for all my classes Tom McNerney, Dept. of Sociology, San Jose State Univ. ( back cover). Hank Harrison is a man who saw that a job had to be done and that he had the specific qualifications to do it. As one of the founders of the Haight-Ashbury community he was the first manager of the rock group known as the Warlocks, which later became The Grateful Dead. Harrison realized that the drugs-and-rock exploitation in the late 60's was not merely a fad or a catch-all for dirty hippies and dropouts, but a social movement of real importance.
