Ghostship Seasoned Member Posts: 155	Robbie Robertson 08/10/23 at 03:06:37 The great Robbie Robertson passed away today at 80 years young. From The Band, to his solo albums, to Playing for Change, his contribution was awesome. He influenced me greatly...

He had such an imagination about the past and put it to good use with his narratives. When I hear “Music From Big Pink” it sounds like covers of unknown 19th century songs instead of contemporary music and that tells me he accomplished his aim engaging the listener. This Thanksgiving we'll watch the “Last Waltz” and give thanks for Robbie and his mates.

I think that was 1978. Thanks for the reminder. I will try to watch it again! I particularly loved his playing on Dylan's "Planet Waves!"

Paul2 Senior Member Second Hand Rose Posts: 84	Re: Robbie Robertson Reply #7 - 08/13/23 at 22:23:34 First we lost Levon Helm, now Robbie. I'm glad that Robbie' son Sebastian, was able to arrange the "Playing for Change" doc before he passed. Grace Slick is a year older than me.......... Some say old age is "The Golden Age", I say that is BS!
