Album Notes & Community Reviews

Taking a brief hiatus from the Grateful Dead, the rhythm guitarist enlisted producer Keith Olsen to craft a remarkably slick, radio-friendly solo effort. 'Heaven Help the Fool' fully embraces the polished, studio-perfected sound of late-70s yacht rock, bolstered by an array of elite session musicians.
