Lesh is More.
That simple saying, popular among Grateful Dead fans who idolize bassist Phil Lesh, is true on multiple levels.
Phil was never content to be "just" a rhythm-keeping bassist, preferring instead, like the rest of the band, to engage in sonic explorations that had much to do with the wondrous and little to do with the obvious.
Phillip Chapman Lesh was born March 15, 1940, in Berkeley, California.
Happy 71st birthday, Phil!
