Grateful Dead Shirt : Vintage Original ( Genuine / Authentic ) : 1994 : " Blues For Allah !!! " : Philip Garris Art ! : " The Fiddler !! " ( 1974 ) : Base Art design for the 1975 Grateful Dead " Blues For Allah ! " Album Cover : Very-Rare !!!Vintage Original 1994 Issued Shirt Featuring the Legendary !!! 1974 Philip Garris Art design " The Fiddler ! " - used for the Epic ! 1975 " Blues For Allah " ... the '75 ' Return ! of The G.D. ' Studio Album !!! ... Wow !!!!!
All Dead Fans are mostly on the same page in regard to the importance of the " Blues For Allah " album. This was the Grateful Dead's " Comeback " after all, following a group hiatus - which nearly led to a complete dis-banding ! Oh my, what would we all have done throughout the Late 70's & 1980's ?!? Well, thankfully that was not the case - however, as Grateful Dead " images " go - it is tough to beat this one : " The Fiddler " ( 1974 ) by Philip Garris - the base art design used for the 1975 " Blues For Allah " Album!!! Right up there all the way for-certain with " Steal Your Face ! " & " Bertha " Skeleton & Roses claim to G.D. Fame. However, while those were obviously invented before & during the " Golden " era of the Band, this " Fiddler " image on the other hand - represented " magnificent change & transformation " for new-look & new-sound ! Grateful Dead. I can only imagine some of the fan-reactions when they first heard their very-first " Allah " album play in '75 - Wow ! And especially being there to see it performed " Live " during those so very few & precious 1975 chances !! The funny thing is, probably just about the exact same thing happened a couple years later when they also heard " Terrapin Station " !?! These were interesting times indeed, and in my opinion this is the Quintessential ! image from this way-beyond exciting time for the Grateful Dead. And as for this Shirt itself ? This is a Shirt made in 1994 ! You bet Dead Fans ... this one now clocks-in at close to 25-Years Old !?! Where does the time-go ?! A true '90's vintage time-capsule treasure here, representing the one & only ... Blues For Allah ! Thank You Philip Garris for giving all the Deadhead Faithful a Beyond-Legendary ! Art Design. And of course, hey G.D. ! ..... Thanks for the Help > Slip ! > Franklin's !!! Enjoy !!!!!
