Rob Wasserman (Bob Weir, Lou Reed)

A valued sideman and solo recording artist, the late Rob Wasserman was a dexterous player whose upright prowess excelled in situations where an electric bass would have likely been the first choice!  

 

Rob’s amazing body of work spanned Van Morrison, Lou Reed, Bob Weir & Ratdog, Jerry Garcia, Rickie Lee Jones, Brian Wilson, and Aaron Neville, to cite a select few.

 

He garnered Grammy nominations for his groundbreaking Duets (1988) album, and Downbeaat cited his debut slab Solo as Record of the Year in 1983.
