Phil Lesh fans have a lot to be happy about right now. While the Grateful Dead bassist may not be touring with his fellow Dead & Company bandmates, Lesh continues to delight fans with the rotating cast of “Friends” that populate his Phil Lesh & Friends ensemble.

Last night, Lesh kicked off a six-night run at the Capitol Theatre with a monster performance, bringing along a cast of all-star musicians Stanley Jordan, John Kadlecik, Jason Crosby, and Tony Leone. The memorable night opened with a fiery “Help On The Way > Slipknot! > Franklin’s Tower”, and never relented. Those in attendance were surely treated to some fabulous music.
Now, thanks to WMMV Radio, we have a full audio recording of the performance. Tune in below:
