Song Review(s): Phil Lesh & Friends - “West L.A. Fadeaway,” “St. Stephen” and “Playing in the Band” (Live, March 13, 2024)
Saxophonist Karl Denson was the star instrumentalist on “West L.A. Fadeaway,” his horn outshining the guitar and keyboard spots that surrounded him, while Eric Krasno seemed only vaguely familiar with the lyrics he sang.
Things got more titillating in the final jam as half the players tore the song apart and the other half engaged in reconstruction underneath.
The Grateful Dead number was one of three songs Phil Lesh & Friends gave away on the livestream sampler from their March 13 gig in New York, the last show for the titular bassist as an 83-year-old, who will mark his 84th birthday March 15 with a different, as-yet-unannounced group of players.
On this night, it was Denson, guitarists Krasno and Grahame Lesh, keyboardist Jason Crosby, drummer John Molo and singer Amy Helm.

They focused on ensemble performance on the brisk-of-pace “St. Stephen” that followed. It was solid but never truly sparked until about 13 minutes in when Denson’s freight-train bleating signaled a tease of “The Eleven,” on which Grahame Lesh and Krasno played Allmanesque twin-guitar lines and Phil Lesh and Molo drove the locomotive. Alas, the song didn’t materialize and “Stephen” led to “Playing in the Band.”
This breezy, experimental rendition featured Denson on wispy flute and Krasno again unfamiliar with the words. Helm was underutilized on harmony and it was only when Denson picked up a shaker and the band dived into improv that Lesh’s brand of Friend-based risk taking paid off in inspired, groove-heavy jamming that served the song’s open composition. The song proper, however, didn’t fare so well.

Song Review: Eric Krasno and Otis McDonald - “Sugar Magnolia”
The interesting thing about Eric Krasno and Otis McDonald’s cover of “Sugar Magnolia” is how the pair stick so close to the Grateful Dead’s American Beauty version, yet stray so far.
The result is like a musical Rubik’s Cube - easy to be enamored with but nearly impossible to determine what, exactly, is the allure.
The departures are subtle: slight twists on the melody, rhythm and background vocals; sneaky aural allusions to the Allman Brothers Band; and a slickness the Dead typically eschewed.
All of the which render Krasno and McDonald’s “Sugar Magnolia” a track that’s difficult to crack - part remake, part reinterpretation and neither of the preceding.
