Levon said in his book RR never had his mic turned on on stage and the entirety of The Last Waltz was redubbed.

Rick's bass was out of tune for the whole gig. Given the amount of coke they were getting through (in 'the white room' backstage), it's wonder they could stand let alone tune instruments

Just been giving Robbies solo album a few spins. I dunno how many he’s made but it’s the one with Somewhere Down The Crazy River on. It’s still holding up.

There’s a good story of having to rotorscope the footage to remover a massive wedge of coke up Neil Young’s about before they could release this at the cinema

I’ve read that story about the white lump up his nostril, I can’t see it when I’ve watched it. Look at Robbie Robertson though, wide-eyed, and mouth-breathing throughout - coked up to his eyebrows!

I love watching Levon gurning through Dixie. He’s coked right up.

RIP Robbie

Would never have though Garth would be the last.
