Jon, between this and your other comments about Red Allen's solos, I
think you're micromanaging. Leland Sklar would have done an impossibly
beautiful bass part on some other record, no? Bluegrass Reunion would
have been recorded with Red Allen leads if Garcia had never been born,
no? This isn't Six Degrees of Separation. <g>
