Mulligan Stew Jan 17th 2026-Remembering Crosby, Frey, Weir.

As I was hosting and producing The Stew last Saturday, I saw the loss of Bob Weir flash on a screen.

This week,  I was already planning on saluting Glen Frey from The Eagles and David Crosby from The Byrds and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. (both lost Jan 18)

Bobby Weir was the co-founder of The Grateful Dead and became the leader of The Dead when Jerry Garcia died. He gathered up the remaining members and formed Dead and Company, adding John Mayer on guitar and vocals. On their last tour, they played for a total of  840,000 fans and played their last dates back in Golden Gate Park, where it had all begun 60 years ago.

Todayas playlist includes CNSY, The Grateful Dead, Dead and Company, new Steve Earle, Ry Cooder, I’m with her, Mariel Buckley, U2 (with BB King), Larkin Poe, Dylan and Baez, Brandi Carlile, The Temps, Stevie Wonder, Stones and an interview with Vancouver rocker Rich Hope and his latest album, Live at the Anza Club.
