Garcia Live Volume Six is a three-CD live album by Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders. It was recorded on July 5, 1973, at the Lion's Share in San Anselmo, California. It was released on June 24, 2016.[1][2][3][4]

From February 1971 to July 1975, Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders played many live shows together when the Grateful Dead were not on tour. Their band's lineup for the Lion's Share concert was Garcia on guitar and vocals, Saunders on keyboards and vocals, John Kahn on bass, and Bill Vitt on drums. A few days later, the band played two shows at the Keystone in Berkeley, California, that are documented in the albums Live at Keystone, Keystone Encores, and Keystone Companions.[5]

At the July 5 Lion's Share concert, a trumpet player whose identity is no longer known sat in on the second set.[1]
