Saddened to hear about the passing of Levon Helm. Don't know how many of you folks were influenced by the" Band", but I sure was and still am! Actually working up a rendition of "The Weight", with the church house band(for May). His work with the Dixie Hummingbirds was wonderful. And his "Dirt Farmer" recording, IMO, is one of the greatest, recent, Folk-Americana musical expressions!!!! Thanks for all of it, Levon!!!! Art

RIP Levon and thanks for the great music you left behind.

Been watching The Last Waltz since the 80s... love the version here!

Yeah, I'm just doing some laundry right now. Had sausage, eggs over easy, and toast for breakfast, and I feel like having a nap for lunch. :lol:
