Rock of Ages
#theband #rockofages #70smusic #classicrock #music #musicsky #musiciansky #robbierobertson #levonhelm #garthhudson #richardmanuel #rickdanko The Band booked a residency at the Academy of Music for the last week of 1971, culminating in a New Year's Eve performance.

The Last Waltz …
... released April 7, 1978. It's the second live album by the Band and is the soundtrack to the 1978 film of the same name The Last Waltz is also the final album by the original configuration of The Band.

I'm listening to this 1977 Rick Danko show that came up on LL recently. I've never heard a Danko solo show before and it's really doing it for me today. Nice sounding sbd tape and really good band.

one wee unresolved watkins glen bit: during the superjam, a very schnozzled #RickDanko sings a tune that nobody has properly identified, often labeled “la di da day,” track 26 here. lots of other covers they did this weekend (including during the jam) were recorded at the “moondog matinee” sessions, so maybe this falls in there too? https://archive.org/details/gd1973-07-28.135585.aud.cooper.berger.flac16 /5

I pulled in to Nazareth
Was feeling 'bout half past dead
I just need someplace
Where I can lay my head
"Hey, mister, can you tell me
Where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand
NO was all he said
Take a load off, Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Fanny
And
You put the load right on me
