Grateful Dead bass player.
I’m not a GD fan but I so appreciate the contribution they made to American music. I’m sure he had a very interesting life.
RIP Phil Lesh

Re: RIP Phil Lesh
It's said he had perfect pitch, also, a hell of a bassist. Probably second only to Jack Casady in that San Fran scene.

He’s the coherent one in the Amazon doc.
Yeah, good musician.
Interesting hearing his recollections.
