A long time hero of mine, Robbie Robertson of the legendary The Band died wednesday at the age of 80 years after a long illness.
The Bands farewell album and concert movie "The Last Waltz" have been essential to the way I listen to and think about music.
Robbie's playing on the Last Waltz was just perfect, so musical and always serving the songs. His interplay with Eric Clapton on that album is a great example of this.
Robbies solo album Storyville from 1991 is also a standout album for me.
Thanks for all the great music - RIP Robbie Robertson
