Phil Lesh - 2001-07-07 - Morrison, CO (SBD)

When you spend the first 3 decades of your career alongside one of the greatest guitarists in history (namely, the one and only Jerry Garcia), you have to think carefully about who you choose to be your lead guitarist when you start your own band.  So, when Phil Lesh launched Phil & Friends in 1998, he made sure that his rotating ensemble always had a Guitar God at the helm. Jorma Kaukonen, Trey Anastaiso, Derek Trucks, Steve Kimock, Jimmy Herring and Stanley Jordan are just a few of the names that have played lead guitar for Phil.  Another is Warren Haynes, who can be heard loud and clear on this soundboard recording from July 7, 2001, 16 years ago today, from the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatere. Warren, who has also lit up the stage for the Allman Brothers and Govt Mule, as well as during his own solo shows, was ranked #23 on Rolling Stone's 2003 list if the top guitarists, though he was inexplicably left off the 2011 version of the list.  I won't even try to explain that one.  The show also features Jimmy Herring, who despite stints Widespread Panic, The Dead, the Other Ones, the Allman Brothers, Aquarium Rescue Unit and, of Course Phil & Friends, just never seems to get any recognition for his amazing guitar work.
