RIP Robbie! I bought their first album when it came out. Everyone else was doing protest or psychedelic music, and along comes The Band, with down-home southern lyrics & sound. And they were a big hit. The Weight is still one of my all time favorites.

Yeah, I saw that. They were an important band in rock history and he was probably the leader. I still can’t get over the fact that he, a Canadian, wrote “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.” AFAIK, all Leon Helm did was point him in the right direction for his research.

I loved Robbie's presence in that movie. He was having fun and was on top of his game on guitar.

Roy Buchanan documentary, The Best Unknown Guitarist in the World. Robbie's admiration for Roy's playing was so right, and lifted me to a super fan of his. Robbie was one of the best.

I love "The Last Waltz". I have it on DVD and watch it every so often. I'll need to do that this weekend. RIP Robby! Put the load right on me!

This song sounds like it should come from a Sam Spade/ Phillip Marlow movie! Very Hammet/Chandleresque!This message has been edited. Last edited by: bettysnephew,
