Staggering on Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 As posted in another BC forum we lost Rob recently.I first heard him playing with David Grisman in the '80's and was blown away-and at that point I was a guitar player and didn't start bass for almost a decade.Since then I have gone from BG to EUB(Yamaha SLB200) and still put on some of his recordings when I need some inspiration.He was an early proponent of EUB's and used them on many recordings along with acoustic upright.A talented player who was versatile and played many genres,a real loss.He knew what to do and when-the perfect combination for a bass player.I'm going to listen to some of my favourite Rob recordings today and then get out the bass and play for a while-what an inspiration.
