THE BAND - THE LAST WALTZ


“Just making music, you know? Trying to stay busy, man.”

The Last Waltz (1978), directed by Martin Scorsese


thanks to O My Soul


After seeing The Band at the Wembley Stadium 'supporting' CSNY and Joni Mitchell they blew everyone else out the stadium for me,  and I hadn't truly realised what a great dance band they were! Boogie and chooglinh all over the place thanks largely to Danko and Helm's rhythm section! My brother and I loved the idea of The Last Waltz although saddened to hear of the split we loved that film . . . . .
