ah, Ripple.
Like Chateau Thunderbird, a great wine that goes along with most of what one finds in a dumpster.
I remember once in an alley behind a French restaurant... wait... did he say "Ripple in still water" ?
Never mind.

Totally agree, it puts me in a good place- a nice warm smile... |

What an utterly goofy, boring tune! It's drawing the blood under my nails.
The Dead is certainly NOT my cup of tea, but I think I'm the only one here at RP.

"Ripple" is an acid-religious band's apotheosis.

When I was 10 years old I used to think that the Grateful Dead was a metal band like Black Sabath...never been so wrong!

I don't think anything could ever make me like the Grateful Dead. Bland and listless.

At this time it was probably a two pickup Gibson EB-3 he modified by adding a Guild pickup and placing preamps inside. An external power supply or a battery powered the preamps. Stereooutputs were also added.
I have seen pictures of Phil Lesh with that bass. He gets a huge tone with a nice snap on the top end. |
