One of the giants of my musical experience, Robbie Robertson passed away yesterday at 80 years of age.
Robbie was lead guitarist for Bob Dylan in the 1960s and early 1970s but really came to my attention as guitarist and songwriter with the Band with classic songs like the Weight, Up on Cripple Creek, the Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, Ain’t Got No Home and many others.
RIP Robbie.
RIP Robbie
If you haven't seen it get a look at the Martin Scorcese doco "The Last Waltz".
Not just "The Band" but a bunch of rock legends. ;)
