I remember when I first heard The Band in the early 70's. I kept thinking, "What's the name of their band"?

We played their music at parties, listened to it in cars on tape decks.

I remember watching The Last Waltz when the movie came out.

The Last Waltz is IMO the greatest rock 'n roll live recording of all-time. Robbie's solo record How to Become Clairvoyant is a favorite.

Long live rock 'n roll.

Rest In Band, Robbie.
