"There's no way to measure his greatness or magnitude as a person or as a player. I don't think eulogizing will do him justice. He was great -- much more than a superb musician with an uncanny ear and dexterity. He is the very spirit personified of whatever is muddy river country at its core and screams up into the spheres. He really had no equal... His playing was moody, awesome, sophisticated, hypnotic and subtle. There's no way to convey the loss. It just digs down really deep." --Bob Dylan, after Jerry Garcia's death in 1995

Could anyone say it better? I don't believe so...Who will say a eulogy for Bob? Will anyone of his peers be left when he goes? Beautiful...

I know, this was my favorite comment EVER on the subject. I am sure lots of people will say lots of things when Bob dies--a much larger segment of society knows how important he is. But who will say the RIGHT thing?
