The August 2008 issue of Relix Magazine includes the first published transcript of an extensive 1989 interview that Jerry Garcia gave to would-be author and broadcaster Jeremy Alderson. The interview is interesting because it was one of the rare occasions where Garcia spoke publicly about his drug use, in particular his experiences with psychedelics.
