This week on No Simple Road we are headed back to Skull & Roses Festival for our conversations with Grateful Dead chroniclers, photographers, and storytellers Jay Blakesberg & Rosie McGee!
We start this trip back to Skull & Roses 2023 at the Ventura County Fairgrounds with a quick conversation with world renowned Rock-n-Roll photographer and filmaker Jay Blakesberg. Jay has psent most of his life photographing the moments that we now call iconic. Spanning more than 45 years, his work has been seen in every famous rock magazine known, The Smithsonian, and on more Deadhead's walls than anyone else.
We continue this long strange trip with an interview featuring the one and only, Rosie McGee! Rosie photographed The Grateful Dead from an insider's perspective. In her first Self published book, "Dancing With The Dead-A Photographic Memoir, she tells ten years' worth of stories-Illustrated by 200 of her photos of living, traveling, and working with The Grateful Dead during their first 10 years as a band.
