At age 81, recovering from recent back surgery, on Labor Day that year, on the stage of his Restaurant and music Venue, 'Terrapin Crossing' - Phil Lesh sat and read to children from two books recently released by friends, authors of those children's books. He graciously stood for a photograph with me before he climbed the stairs to the outdoor stage… there, surrounded by musicians not yet conceived when he first met Jerry Garcia and began his musical journey, the tall personification of the age of love, smiled and supported the beat of the music, as 60 year old twirlers danced at his feet, children played in the grass at the feet of their 30 something parents… exposed as several generations before had been exposed to the siren tones of this Peter Pan… Yes Yes Yes, who will deny it was "…a long strange trip" but one of shared joy and love. Rest in peace; I was a traveler who rode your wake, forever grateful for your being. Best wishes to all those who were close to your heart. and knew your love and support..So So Sorry you had to end...

I first saw the GD in 1979, when I was 15. Since then, Phil has always been a part of my life. Lots of Grateful Dead shows, then The Other Ones, The Dead, Furthur, Phil and Friends, Fare Thee Well. Now I’m 60, and very grateful for 45 years of shows with their unmatched fun, joy and camaraderie. Thank you so much, Phil. Rest in peace.

Phil wrote this song for his father when he passed away. Beautiful choice to memorialize a moment for Phil Lesh. So grateful we had the times to share this wonderful music 🎶

I met Phil in !983 at an electronics store (The Good Guys) in Berkeley CA . He purchased a Sony SL2700 (Betamax Hi fi) which at the time.. was probably the highest quality audio recorder available for $1300 at the time. I asked him what kind of music would he be recording with it. He told me classical music. I did not recognize him at first.. but when we went to the sales counter to process the transaction, he handed me an AMEX card that read Phil Lesh The Grateful Dead. He could not have been any more of a pleasant human being. I also remember that it was kind of a warm afternoon in Berkeley (he had driven over from his home in San Rafael CA) and he was wearing a red Indy 500 jacket that (at the time and probably still is) the most cool jacket that I have ever seen in my life. Our time on this planet was very brief.. but his beautiful energy will most likely last my lifetime.

One of the benefits of being an old man, saw them frequently, loved their shows every time. The parking lot was every bit as entertaining as the shows. Besides their music a key to their success was allowing anybody to tape shows. It was a treat to get a bootleg tape from different shows, passed around in the family, juicing the wheels.

TY My words are there ever enough? 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🚌🚌🐻🐻🦉🦉♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ No Phil Zone The Box of rain was so full today It had to be opened to let the tears in Though I thought of the dog with no nose And how he smelled, “Pretty Awful” And the Bird songs sang Just a little while till they flew off And bombastic bombs filled the air Reverberating into my memorial ears Let him sing! into eternity, came to mind And nights of colours colliding to notes Whilst we danced into the streets To find comfort from the cold, in darkened nights In rooms we sat, spinning copies of the night Maximum records that still spin, in mind, in heart Cassettes scribbled on, in the daze of night We waited for the light of day and yet another night Never the same, the paths we followed led us home Remembering in snippets what had not been seen or heard Before or ever after again and again and again And never would be again, in that order What would you want us to do, whilst you sleep Find the value in it all, while going home Or, was it all just a psychedelic dream We sought on replay, until we too went out the window No pane made falling splinter free yet longer Such a long time to fall, till we hit the ground Running on a dream, that is difficult to re-create Just enjoy in slumber, though one may wonder What was really going on? Solace in song will keep me keeping on I got the Bus ticket, coast to coast To coast again, pop in the clutch, let freedom drive I will take that mystical ride, it’s the ride Not necessarily the destination Who knows where or how we will end up, anyway Today the accolades and concerts fill the screen Oh, Bertha I just gotta move Though it be a hard run I know you care Despite what may be around the corner I just can’t stop gotta get on From place from mind from body Though I fall, I hear a voice a calling Telling me I will land upon my knees In thornless Roses, picked by gypsies in the night Bringing light to day as I remember to inhale deeply Was it all that dancing that let me sleep so peacefully? I can only wish it for all And lay a rose upon your chest, aromatic rest I’ll let you fill in the rest. Once you pass the test, no cheat sheets allowed S. Garland 10/26/24

Just something to run streaming, files, etc., through the stereo and an amazing EQ system plus the ability to record that music onto different media while not needing some type of code like from BoobTube just to hear it.
