A great has died


Garth Hudson.  The last living member of The Band.

And so it ends. The oldest of the five members of The Band (born in 1937), Garth didn't smoke or drink. No one plays organ as did Garth, a true original. He was also a very interesting pianist, and a decent sax player. 

I'll be listening to all The Band albums today.

 

One of my favorite groups of all time.  Just watched "The Last Waltz" a few nights ago, (for like the hundredth time).

R.I.P. Garth and thanks for all the great music!

The absolute end of an era, how lucky we all are to have lived amongst them while they worked their magic. THE BAND. Enjoy the music

That was one special group of players and what a repertoire!

The "brown album" has long been a desert island disc for me.

 

RIP Garth Hudson The Band one of the greatest and most underrated bands in rock history.
