RIP Phil Lesh

One of a kind. No one can really play like Phil. He was a genius.
He's giving a nod to the song "The other one"
I was hip to that, just didn't want to forget, the other ones
My wife is out of town because of a family emergency but she will be so sad, but she probably already knows. When I sold my 6 string TRB she was so mad and I had to get another one. She actually worked for the Dead from 93 to 95, mostly for Bob Weir - logistics, catering and of that. She has some great photos print and slides. Digital photography way back then was only for those that can afford 5K Leaf digital backs on your F5 Nikon.
There are lots, I like these off-the-top off of my head, There are other things as well. Someone will add to it I’m sure.
So sad. Loved his playing style.... his own style. I'm so thankful to have seen the Grateful Dead 3 times in my life. Wonderful memories.
Searching for the secret, listening for the sound. RIP Good Sir. Probably saw Phil more than any other bassist over the years.
My first thought…. Now some things will never happen. Sad. Another recording with Bob Weir? I was hoping Phil Lesh and Jack Casady would work with Guild to put out a cool active Starfire.Special edition! I think they both sounded best somehow on those Starfires.
A nice Lesh intro:
Some great improv in here:

A one off, mega talent. Tripping the universe with Jerry, Pig, Brent and Keith now.

When I listen to the Dead, Phil Lesh and Kreutzmann always grabbed my attention.
