Title: Shall we go, you and I while we can?
Post by: PRR on September 25, 2019, 02:26:17 pm

Robert Hunter, Grateful Dead Collaborator and Lyricist, Dead at 78

"Considered one of rock’s most ambitious and dazzling lyricists, Hunter was the literary counterpoint to the band’s musical experimentation. His lyrics — heard in everything from early Dead classics like “Dark Star” and “China Cat Sunflower” and proceeding through “Uncle John’s Band,” “Box of Rain,” “Scarlet Begonias,” and “Touch of Gray”— were as much a part of the band as Jerry Garcia’s singing and guitar."
