Aw man. He's one of these artists I was just getting back into recently. I didn't know about all his collaborations with fellow indigenous performers until a couple of weeks ago, but there's some good stuff in his later albums!

Just rewatched The Last Waltz this week, what a huge loss. If you haven't seen the last Waltz , watch it, amazing work and what a show.

That bit where Levon is talking about how they named their band…

“We didn’t know what to call ourselves, so we just went with… THE BHAAND.”

Cracks me up every time.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Robbie Robertson, the string-bending guitarist and principal songwriter of The Band, has died at 80.

More to come

The Weight is one of the best songs in the history of music. This is sad news.

Maybe everything that dies someday comes back Even though Springsteen wrote it The Band did such an amazing cover of that song.
