Yeah, dammit.

I was at both the shows they mention that he sat in; I kind of assume there are a few more the writer didn't catch?

The 11/19/92 show was something; he played pedal steel not just on Poor Heart as mentioned in the article there, but also Llama and Fast Enough For You, which was a live debut and an absolutely fucking exquisite moment in an absolute barn-burner of a show.

RIP.

That really blows. Loved his work with Phish and beyond.

Everything is connected, because it's all being created by this one consciousness. And we are tiny reflections of the mind that is creating the universe.

Crushing.
I have several of his early records solo & with Pine Island in the 70s. The man could wrangle some strings.

Never got to see him live, but I love his work with Phish and Mike's sols stuff.

You haven't lived until you've had a robot shart in your ear and followed along in the live setlist thread while it happens.
