  Carlos Santana interview: 'The world is literally vomiting'

Looking back, I can still see my own dad drumming his steering wheel along with soft-rock hits like “The Way It Is”, “Every Little Kiss” and “Mandolin Rain” while driving me to school.But fast-forward 35 years and you’ll find “The Way

  Jerry Garcia's Alligator guitar could sell for $400,000 at L.A. auction

  A battered Fender Stratocaster played by the late Grateful Dead frontman Jerry Garcia could fetch up to $400,000 at an auction in Los Angeles next week. The guitar, nicknamed Alligator because of the distinctive green alligator sticker on the front, was played by Garcia on the Grateful Dead's 1972 European tour and other live performances between 1971-1973, auctioneers Bonhams said on Thursday. The guitar, made in 1955, is believed to have been given to Garcia by British musician Graham Nash.
