The Dead End of the Week - 11-3-24
Submitted by joe shikspack on Sun, 11/03/2024 - 3:00pm
Afternoon folks!
Last week, orlbucfan asked if i would put together a deadhead feature, possibly in honor of Phil Lesh, the Dead's bass player who recently passed. So, thinking about it, I figured that I'd come up with a video to get the ball rolling and let other folks contribute their favorite stuff.
So, here's the video that I came up with:
Celebrating Phil Lesh. Big Steve pays tribute to his friend Phil
... and here's a clip of some of my favorite Phil Lesh fretwork:
Grateful Dead - Scarlet Begonias / Fire on the Mountain 5/8/77
Okay, so the floor is yours, contribute as you see fit.

The ruling classes need an extra party to make the rest of us feel as if we participate in democracy. That's what the Democrats are for. They make the US more durable than the Soviet Union was.

Hi deadenders
Hi Joe and EL,
Thanks for these... Anything is good for me. I love it all. It is a mountain of fantastic music these guys made. My brother plays electric bass and said 'no top 10 bassist list is complete without Phil Lesh'. He was a great player who really knew how to make music work. So creative, and adaptable. Really unique.
Be listenin to some dead....
happy trails!
We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

have a good one!
Not a fan of "top ten" lists, for many reasons,
such as simply not enough, should be much longer. Depending on where on looks for top bassists I note a lot of tunnel vision: no Mingus or Dixon, only electric.
