Recording and performing prolifically in many styles of music, Henry Kaiser is a fixture on the San Francisco Bay Area music scene. He is considered a member of the “second generation” of American free improvisers. We have a great seat in the tiny San Francisco club ‘Slims’ where the Henry Kaiser Band jams on the Dead’s “Dark Star” with former Grateful Dead keyboardist Tom Constanten. Henry Kaiser shares his appreciation of the open-ended improvisation to be discovered in “Dark Star”.
