Obituaries: Manitoba Fiddle Star Don Zueff, Grateful Dead Bassist Phil Lesh

We also acknowledge the passing of folk/blues legend and activist Barbara Dane, hit hip-hop producer DJ Clark Kent and original Iron Maiden singer Paul D'Ianno.

Don (Donald Peter) Zueff, a renowned Manitoban fiddle player and songwriter best known for work in Prairie Dog and D. Rangers, died on Oct. 18, at age 73.

An extensive official obituary notes that the Manitoban born and raised Zueff showed a love of music at a very early age. "His brother Wally, 13 years his senior, recognized Don’s love and natural talent immediately. At age 5, Wally gave his younger brother a gift that shaped his entire life and the wonderful circle of friends and family he ever received… Wally convinced their staunchly stern immigrant father from the USSR to get Donnie a proper violin and support his growth as a musician.
