Yes, one of the best. Good article too.

Yes, truly a loss to those that appreciate great song lyrics: Box of Rain, Friend of the Devil, China Cat, Eyes of the World, … and my favorites Ripple, Attics of my Life. I am ‘grateful' I was able to experience 36 shows from the greatest band ever before it came to an unfortunate an end. RIP Robert Hunter.

Hunter was the GOAT. RIP dear Robert.

If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung
Would you hear my voice come through the music
Would you hold it near as it were your own?

It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken
Perhaps they're better left unsung
I don't know, don't really care
Let there be songs to fill the air
