Your last concert was to see who and when?
  Iris DeMent tonight at The Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR. She closed the show with this fantastic song:   https://youtu.be/FikZwgj89HI?t=1   Harmony vocal sung by Emmylou Harris, dobro played by Jerry Douglas.

Robbie Robertson has passed away :-(
@szeidman2002: There is a 4-CD/1-DVD expanded boxset of Rock Of Ages, entitled Live At The Academy Of Music 1971. I am fortunate in having seen & heard The Band live in The Berkeley Community Theater during the s/t-"brown" album tour, and they... 
RIP Robbie Robertson
@szeidman2002: I wholeheartedly agree about Rock Of Ages. If you’re not anti-digital there is an expanded 4-CD/1-DVD boxset of the album, entitled Live At The Academy Of Music 1971. Also great is their live album with Dylan, Before The Flood. I p...

Back atcha!  
The Aaron Copland / Bob Dylan connection
Haven't a clue @jafant. But I would love any Planet Waves unreleased tracks or alternative versions. And an expanded Before The Flood---from the 1974 tour with The Band, if any unreleased tracks exist. Bill Graham sold tickets for the San Francis...

@yyzsantabarbara: Robbie acted in one movie, Carny (1980), in which Jodie Foster and Gary Busey star. Have you seen Robbie’s autobiographical film Once Were Brothers? Very interesting, well worth your time. Not to minimize Robertson, but Band dru...

For the first time on LP, Wayne Hancock's A-Train Blues album (Bloodshot Records). Cut in 20 hours with producer Lloyd Maines, released on CD in 2001. Red hot Hillbilly/Rockabilly.

  "The Weight", one of Robbie Robertson's best songs. Another is "It Makes No Difference".  
Building a 100 album vinyl collection 3 must have albums are?
  - The Band: Music From Big Pink. - The Band: s/t (the "brown" album). - Either Iris DeMent’s My Life (critic Robert Christgau gave it an A+ grade) or John Hiatt’s Bring The Family. All four are, imo, perfect albums.

Live, The Band sounded more unlike all others I’ve seen than any other (does that make sense? ;-). They actually changed the course of Rock ’n’ Roll, at least to a healthy number of musicians. Nick Lowe in an interview said The Brinsley Schwarz Ba... 
Moving up????
Danny Richie of GR Research designs the crossovers in the Tyler speakers.  
RIP Robbie Robertson
This leaves only Garth Hudson. And he was born first!  
New In 2023
On August 25th, John Fogerty's first two solo albums from the 1970's will be re-released on LP: - His first, Entitled The Blue Ridge Rangers. John sings and plays every part, and no acknowledgement anywhere on the cover reveals the fact that he I... 
The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation"
@rich121: I’ll bet it’s the Nessie. Elusive Disc sells them. They look great, much more "polished" than the VPI’s.
