RIP Robbie Robertson

... what can we do about it? ...

Nothing, really, except live our lives, which you seem to understand. Life is short and a precious gift. Time is fleeting. We're all so fortunate to be here.

This leaves only Garth Hudson. And he was born first!

What a tremendous loss, a true treasure trove of talent. His self titled album has always been on my desert island list, not a bad song on it. His contributions through the years will never be matched again. He will be missed with deep sorrow.

Dang! This getting old is difficult enough without losing all these people that contributed to our enjoyment through the years.

@islandmandan Re: What can we do about it.,I,ll be 64 in February, only thing I can think of to do is exercise while listening to music every day, can’t think of two things better for you, diet of course, but hey we do the best we can. Love your system btw. 

Very tasty licks and a fantastic song writer. The Band changed the direction of music.
