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

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.

Looking forward to Gillian Welch/David Rawlings show at Haw River Ballroom, NC next week.
