R.I.P. Robbie...thanks for the tunes!!!
One of my favorite quotes:
Robertson said in 1968. “We just don’t think a name means anything. It’s gotten out of hand, the name thing. We don’t want to get into a fixed bag like that.”

@bdp24 I have not seen Once we Were Brothers. I will try to check it out. I was reading a very long article about Quincy Jones the other day and I was thinking this is the most interesting man in the world. Robbie should also be very interesting. On the Color of Money he did the score. I do not think he was in it. I do recall seeing the movie Carney. Problem with having a good audio system is I no longer watch TV or movies.

@szeidman2002: There is a 4-CD/1-DVD expanded boxset of Rock Of Ages, entitled Live At The Academy Of Music 1971. I am fortunate in having seen & heard The Band live in The Berkeley Community Theater during the s/t-"brown" album tour, and they were quite unlike any other I’ve ever seen. IMO they are the best "self-contained" Rock ’n’ Roll band (writing, playing, singing) of them all. |
