Beyond Description. . .
Fare thee well, Bob Matthews, who was at the "band meeting" where the group decided to name themselves, The Grateful Dead. Over the weekend, Bob Matthews passed onto the Great Jam In The Sky.
Among fans of the Grateful Dead, Bob Matthews is a legend. He took banjo lessons from Jerry Garcia, played bass in an early formation of the Grateful Dead: Mother McCree’s Uptown Jug Champions, and the group practiced at his parent's house.
Bob Matthews produced and engineered for iconic albums such as Live/Dead, Europe ‘72, Skull & Roses, and Workingman’s Dead.
We hear archival audio from Bob Matthews discussing music he helped make.
