While that may all be true, *not* isolating Jerry from "the whole result of his input" only describes why he was a cultural phenomenon. If you want to compare apples to apples and judge his guitaristic abilities rather than his cultural phenomena, you have to take his playing at face value, out of context of the juggernaut that was the Dead, and see if it stands on its own merits without the influence of extra-musical criteria.
