Poll question: Favorite Band member?
All of these guys were phenomenal players. I sure miss Rick though.

1. I can't choose only one.
They were The Band. They were one, they were the best, and they gave us so much great music that is so under rated and under appreciated.

RIP, Rick and Richard.:cry: O8)

Thank you johnnie. I am glad to see I am not alone here.

2. I'm watching "Classic Albums" on DVD
It's about their second album and interviews almost all of them except Richard. I think it was right before Rick died. :(

I think tonight will be a night of 5.1 surround sound remastered DVD of The Last Waltz :)

I agree... so friggin' under-rated.

5. Levon gets the edge for Coalminer's Daughter
Plus I always like singing drummers. The real ones that is not ones like Phil Collins who may not be able to do both at the same time.

7. This video shows how respected they were...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLjNjSpZxzg

I don't believe a greater collection of rock and roll stars has ever been on stage together. And Dylan was never better than when he recorded and performed with them.

Can anyone tell me who sings the solo for the second verse?
