@tomic601, Levon Helm’s autobiography (co-written with an actual writer. The syntax of the narration does not sound like Levon speaking.) has long been my favorite telling of The Band story. But that telling is from his perspective alone; I believe this new book by Kubernik is the single best account, and that’s from having read only about a third of it. I haven’t read Robbie Robertson’s book, out of respect for and loyalty to Levon. ;-) If you know why I say that, you already know part of what went wrong in The Band.
There is a good documentary about Levon, entitled "Ain't In It For My Health". Lot's of great stuff in it, including Billy Bob Thornton sitting with Levon at the latter's kitchen table, asking him questions. Thornton is a huge Levon Helm fan, and plays drums in his own 4-piece Rock 'n' Roll band. They have a couple of albums out (haven't heard 'em), and tour occasionally.
