    Not Robbie? :(

    One of those musos I wanted to be there forever in my life. Now gone. Such a loss. RIP and thanks for the music.

    Who else is gonna bring you a broken arrow?

    The loud, edgy lead guitar on Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat from Blonde On Blonde is classic early JRR. Michael Bloomfield was a fairly straightahead Blues player. Robertson took it outside.
    Be seeing you.

    Sorry for the derailment - there’s a fair number of these ‘playing for change’ videos on YouTube. Some are better than others but most are well worth the watch.
    I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it

    Garth Hudson has been quite frail for years now, hard to believe he's all that's left of The Band.

    I love the first few Band albums, but for me it's his stuff with Bob Dylan. Blonde on Blonde, the Basement Tapes, 1974 tour, all of that. Top of the pile though - the 1966 tour. I must have listened to the electric half of the Manchester concert hundreds of times. Just a Telecaster and a big Fender amp playing "fucking loud".



    Solo at around 3:45
    I just picked this up. Holy shit. What a good example of a band working on the structures under a tune to bring deeper meaning. They're working hard to make Dylan sound great. The old iceberg analogy.
