  • Bob Dylan on Bob Weir

    "Then there's Bob Weir. A very unorthodox rhythm player. Has his own style - not unlike Joni Mitchell but from a different place. Plays strange, augmented chords and half chords at unpredictable intervals that somehow match up with Jerry Garcia - who plays like Charlie Christian and Doc Watson at the same time. All that and an in-house writer-poet, Robert Hunter, with a wide range of influences - everyone from Jack Kerouac to Rainer Maria Rilke - and steeped in the songs of Stephen Foster. This creates a wide range of opportunities for the Grateful Dead to play almost any kind of music and make it their own." -Bob Dylan
