The "Levon, I'll meet you on the other side" line from #RobbieRobertson in the Once Were Brothers: The Band documentary makes you cry now.

9.8.2023 loss.

I didn't comment at the time (& don't give a toss about The Band, for now at least) but it almost made me cry even on the day, rarely, given my usual focus more on actors.

It's just that Somewhere Down the Crazy River is possibly the sexiest song out there.

Wenn es #Arte nicht gäbe, dann müssten wir es wohl erfinden. Seit Heute gibt es in der #Mediathek den #Dokumentarfilm (1994) von #DavidFincher (Seven, Fight Club, Benjamin Button...) über #RobbieRobertson: "Von The Band" Zur "Hall Of Fame"...

@hbowie Wonderful piece of writing, Herb. Insightful & wise. #RobbieRobertson's The Weight rewards this kind of listening & attention. You have deepened my appreciation. Thank you.

@kristenhg Yeah, I agree with the intro text on this video that #RobbieRobertson's #TheWeight is a song that 'transcends time & space.' It's a #global campfire song.

See you at Nick's

“Playing with Bob Dylan was like entering The Twilight Zone of music. You thought, ‘They’re going to wake me up tomorrow because all of this is impossible’”: #RobbieRobertson reflects on his remarkable career and the end of the Band | Guitar World

With Dylan they played
Music from the heart they made

Called up Harvey Brooks and Louie Kemp today to talk about working with #RobbieRobertson on the road with #BobDylan https://www.flaggingdown.com/p/dylan-collaborators-remember-robbie-robertson

I've always had a problem with "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down." Even if one posits that it's an allegory for the experience of First Nations in the Americas (which, by all accounts, it isn't), I can't get past the peculiar institution that Old Dixie had Virgil Kane defending.
So I prefer this #RobbieRobertson song, "The Code of Handsome Lake."

My early assumption that “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” was an old folk song. #111Words #TheNightTheyDroveOldDixieDown #JoanBaez #RobbieRobertson #TheBand https://andrewjshields.blogspot.com/2023/08/my-early-assumption-that-night-they.html
