So, Here’s Oteil Burbridge Playing A Sick “Eyes Of The World” Bass Solo On Acid

Just yesterday, we shared a story about bassist Oteil Burbridge and his amazing experience taking Owsley LSD during Dead & Company’s performance at The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, WA earlier this summer. In an interview, Oteil said, “Another thing that impacted me tremendously was the one night I did some Owsley [LSD] at the Gorge. Listen to how different that night sounds, because that music and Owsley go together and I found that out.”

Naturally, we decided to listen to how different that night sounds. While Oteil’s bass playing permeates throughout the show, a stand-out moment for the musician certainly came during the classic Grateful Dead tune, “Eyes Of The World.” The bass solo is out of this world, elevating Burbridge’s already-legendary status among the Grateful faithful.

Watch the video below (the music starts around the 9:00 mark) and see the magic before your very own eyes. LSD sold separately.
