And ... a 12-Page Feature Article ! & Interview with Ken Kesey of Merry Prankster & Writing Fame ... with the Article titled " Kesey - A Day On The Farm !!! ". Dead Fans !! ... and just to Think ?!? that this Fall 1986 Edition of The Good Ol' "Golden Road" ! is actually now well ' Over ' 30-Years Old ! at this point in Time ! ... & Space !! " The Golden Road " was published all the way until 1993 ( founded in 1984 ) - and this relatively-early Issue # 12 here is without any-question one of " The " Most-Quintessential ! Issues of the Entire " Golden Road " Magazine ( Fanzine ! ) to read, own ... & Collect ! And, simply because this issue offers an interview between Steve Marcus ( GDTS Ticket Manager ), and the one & only ... Jerry Garcia ! And, this was one of the very-first in depth ' contacts ' made with Jerry from & for the Deadhead Faithful ... to really check in on him - and see how he was doing. And, naturally ... Jerry cuts pretty to the point, and tells it like it is ... hence, the article/interview title " Garcia : The point is I survived it. Here I am ". Wow ... and my oh my, did Garcia make a Heavy-Duty Impact ! on the Rock & Roll World during this come-back ... " In The Dark " > " Top 10 Hit " > The 1987 Jerry Garcia Electric & ' Acoustic ' Band - even on Broadway in 1987 ! > Garcia & Grisman > and, maybe most importantly too - in the eyes ( ears & minds ! ) of many Deadheads ... 1989-1990 Live Grateful Dead !!! And, even more crazily ... this isn't even technically the " Feature " Article here - as there is also an Interview / Article with Ken Kesey ! ... & 12-Pages worth - with Photos! - kindly titled ... " Kesey - A Day On The Farm " !!! And, as it goes without saying ... all I can say on Both ! these amazing Articles is - WOW !!?!!!! Seriously ... as let's be blunt here, as in the Fall of '86 - could any good Deadhead even ask for any-more than This ? Extremely-Impressive, as " The Golden Road " did indeed go way-way beyond the Dead Fan " Call of Duty " in Issue # 12 ... in the Fall of 1986 ! G.D. Events close to Three-Decades ago ... and you still ! can't help but getting completely-Excited ! & Smiling !! while reading All of This ! I mean this was-indeed such a beyond vitally-important & critical-time in the 30-Year Touring Timeline of The Grateful Dead !!! Garcia was just very-freshly to the point of " getting his chops & voice back " after the '86 near-death coma experience ... and this is also just a about a year or less ' Before ' the Grateful Dead " In The Dark " ... & ' Touch Of Grey ' resurgence - and Phenomenon !! And ... just to think too - that this-here 1987 Excitement ! was really the leading-up-to the Magical ! ' Live-Energy ' period of the Magnificent ! '89-'90 Grateful Dead Era !! Which, many Fans do collectively feel was the Last-True " Prime " of the Grateful Dead. They sure don't mak'em them like this anymore - close to 40-Pages of G.D. Vital-Info & Bliss ! ... and, all in just one Issue -- Issue #12 ! ... with quite the Cool ! Cover Art too - Rockin' the " Grateful Alligator !! " - for - " The Golden Road " !!!
