In this lesson, we'll look at Jerry Garcia's first two solos from Deal, from July 4, 1989. I'll provide an analysis of the chords in the song, and we'll discuss the melodic techniques that Jerry uses in his licks. We'll talk about what makes Deal so challenging to play over, and how Jerry Garcia was able to overcome those challenges so easily.
This version of Deal is featured on the Grateful Dead's Truckin' Up to Buffalo Official Release.

About this video:
In July 1988, Jerry Garcia sat down with Guitar Player magazine to share some secrets behind his approach -
“You need to have enough access to the fingerboard that you’re not hung up about what where you are. In other words ‘What Key am I in? What scale interval am I at?’ You need to be able to let that go past you. I’m just getting into being able to get a good sound, regardless of the structure or mathematics. So much of the guitar is patterns. But if you look at it right, patterns start to melt into each other; pretty soon you can hit anything from anywhere.”
