A nice tribute to my favorite living musician, the last man standing.

@bdp24 

We have lots of great memories and more to be made. Just have to hang in there with our favorites as we watch them disappear. If they can be out there touring, I can at least show up and listen. 

Yeah @mashif, older artists are leaving us behind in increasing regularity. The rest of this decade is going to be brutal. I'm encouraged that there are plenty of younger artists capable of taking their place. Maybe not on the level of a Bob Dylan, but he is a once-in-a-century phenomenon.

I saw Garth Hudson with The Ringo all star band like 20 years ago ,WoW.

Great thread… similar but rare are why i stick around this place.

Amy Helm….anything she has done..including her new album…. yes, a great time to be attending shows, buying and listening to music - new and old… and remembering those who are gone… I’ve got JJ Cale on the turntable…just now…. ah

and Rawlings / Welch headed my way…..

best to all

@tomic601: Jim, Amy joined Levon for the tour he did when he was still recovering from throat surgery, therefor unable to sing. I got to hear her singing on the stage at The House Of Blues on Sunset Blvd. sometime in the first decade of this century, with Levon playing drums better than ever.

I never made it to any of the shows held in Levon’s barn, darnit. Leading the band at a lot of those shows was Larry Campbell, who with his wife and singing/writing partner Teresa Williams will be on stage at Mississippi Studios in Portland next month. Can’t wait!

Also coming to town in November is JD McPherson, who has been playing guitar with Alison Krauss and Robert Plant for a coupla years. He’s a younger guy who plays in a cool Rockabilly style, a genre I love. He has a new album out I gotta pick up.
