What a great guy! The world has changed because of him

Best church I ever went to.!

Which one is Gerry?

What is a “box of rain,” a metaphor for?

RIP Phil. Backbone of Grateful Dead…

What an interesting man. 74 was an epic year to be alive and at their show

I lived during the gd and took advantage. 187 shows. Either phil zone or jerry side

@19:30 "Every place we play is church."

Phil Lesh’s answers were thoughtful and articulate! I loved hearing how the Grateful Dead was formed! ❤

Get your hands out of your pocket and turn on your love light!

Thank you Phil ❤️

Tale to tell. On the day of his death. I was driving out to San Geronimo, woodacre. The morning was ❄️ cold. As I felt a sense of questioning. Picked up my guest. He was quite quiet. Something told me to find it on TH-cam a dead show of the date 10 25. I did find one and drop my guest off in mountain view. Then I drove to SF and ended up on Haight around 2pm . Noticed a lot of heads masonic and Haight setting up gear to play outside. I said to myself something UP! I knew there was a radical vibe. I found out 2 days later. FUCK I miss you

Rest Easy, Phil And thank you for all the great music for decades. We will all miss you...

Well, Phil, you and the Grateful Dead "opened my skull and re- arranged my brains" a bunch of times actually

What an awesome interview. Best description of where a "song" comes from. The Grateful Dead is a fortunate 'event' for us humans

Rest in peace Mr. Phil lesh, rest high upon the mountains...looking down upon the collective that you and your band of brothers helped create and paved the way for..never forgotten, a legendary musician thank you for your contribution to the music community ..

What a beautiful soul! Lucky we had him around to enjoy what he created especially the music with the Greatful Dead. Love his attitude about transcendence through music.

Again another person from America who came from modest means and rose to the top of the heap.

Beautiful description of how they built their music from Phil Lesh. RIP.

Two words Perfect Pitch

rip Phil

Wow, Phil speaks exactly like what I'm thinking as the story progresses. Thank you Sir for your service to musical excellence! Fare thee well kind brother.

May he rest in peace.

Thank you, Phil. You made my life so much better, one note at a time. RIP

Brahms first symphony, my man. You got it right Phil!

Phil was unique, brilliant, and a really nice person. He spoiled music fans with TXR , and had more fun than anyone else doing it. I've spent 53 of my 65 years listening to Phil play, and I could not thank him enough. If I tried, he'd say well, thank you for listening.

Love you Phil ❤

He should be called Dr Phil Lesh.

RIP Phil...You were my favorite bass player un my favorite band, Thanks for the music and memories. You were a true legend and great man!

Shaman Red Kilowatt was singular! Long may your bass spin our spines rattle our minds fill spaces all unknown where the midnight sun she shines ❤

His, and the Dead's RESPECT for music is awe inspiring. If a book came out about the Greatful Dead, a good title would be "The Song". You will be missed.

Wonderful!!!

What a lovely interview, thanks Phil you succeeded in creating that community <3

I was in a teenage high school band called Diogenès in the NYC suburbs (New Rochelle). We did a little “field trip” together to Madison Square Garden to see the Dead. we had seats overlooking the stage and were pretty inebriated all afternoon. Phil came out early to tuneup or check his bass or something-we were young serious musicians, and really respected this guy, but for some goddamn reason we started heckling him, just trying to get his attention I guess-nothing rude-probably something like “hey Phil, hey man!” Etc. Well, we got his attention, and he was mildly irritated so with his back to us, he dropped his jeans and hung a moon right at us. The message was clear and hilarious and we were rolling around laughing. I’m one of very few people in this world who can declare: I was mooned by Phil Lesh - - - RIP Maestro, hope to catch you in that great jam session beyond.

As a pro musician and lifelong seeker of musical adventures (jazz drummer), this great interview reveals Phil as a guy I could pull an all-nighter with, talking and exchanging ideas and maybe even playing. He’s a GREAT and totally unique musician.

Phil and Jack Casady were my favorite west coast bassists. And he seemed like such a nice guy too. Missed already.

I'll miss you Phil. I've spent most of my life with you, whether with the Dead or your other endeavors, and am grateful for that time together. Rest in peace my friend.

And it's just a box of rain Or a ribbon for your hair Such a long, long time to be gone And a short time to be there RIP Phil

Drug addict and woke activist.

Phil has so much enthusiasm for music that's why the Grateful Dead's music was so joyful.

Phil gives a good description here of the "leaving the self" experience at certain times while playing. It's a related idea to his answer to the question, "Where does the song come from?" His answer - "from the experience of every-day living", is consistent with the example he gives about hearing a particular sound or seeing something, that somehow ends up with a song - like, in his words: "a squeaky brake drum, or a street sign", that ends as a song. Like "Ripple", "Stella Blue", or "Terrapin Station", and "Bertha", and many others. Phil Lesh was a Contributor and will be missed. Long live The Grateful Dead!

RIP Uncle Phil! 🙏🏻

Yet another fine example Phil's vast and diverse intelligence on display within this interview. You, Mr. Lesh, along with the other members of the Grateful Dead have played a central role in my life of raising consciousness and community, and I can't thank you and the boys enough for influencing me, and so many other people, to be good, principled and humble human beings. Rest In Peace, Phil. We love you, brother! ❤️⚡️💙🌈✨

Stepping aside and letting the source flow, and express itself through you, is the same for any form of art. Phil explains it so perfectly. Rip

Thank you, Phil. See you soon! You did so much for us! Rest well, brother.

📦🌧️, love you Phil. My sincere condolences to your family and friends; love will see us through

Just heard yesterday that he had passed. R I p Phill

RIP Phil

RIP Phil Lesh! He is very intelligent bass guitarist and human just like Jerry Garcia!
