The Band certainly went through the ringer — alcoholism, drug addiction, shady business dealings, mental health woes, etc. — but when they stepped onstage together, that all disappeared. Check ‘em out on this audience tape from way back in 1971, entertaining the throngs in Central Park on a warm summer night. The Band weren’t jammers; they generally stuck pretty close to the script in a live setting. But the songs have an added warmth, those irreplaceable/irrepressible voices blending magically with deceptively complicated arrangements. There’s a sense of support amongst the quintet that you don’t hear in many other places, an all-for-one spirit that lifts both the musicians and audience.  t wilcox

Let's end the day with this from the guys at Playing For Change with Robbie Robertson, Ringo, Marcus King started off the vocals, Roberto Luti on National Steel slide who seems to be on everything and rightly so to, there's also Larkin Poe, Lukas Nelson, Mermans Mosengo who I have mentioned before and always enjoy his vocal style, and many of the regular contributors at P4C
