Rock & Roll Angel

Rick Danko In The Last Waltz — This blog post is not insightful or reflective. Not at all. November is The Last Waltz month, and as I already wrote Caught In The Spotlight last summer, I tried to find a new angle, and thought it would be a good idea to profess my love for Rick Danko…

The Memories Will Linger On

Thoughts on The Band’s self-titled album — “The Band changed everybody’s lives.” With these brief but powerful words, Rick Danko summed up the impact the successful self-titled album had on The Band. Also known as The Brown Album because of its cover, The Band was released on September 22, 1969. America and Harvest were both considered as…

Dead Flowers

I was only six years old when my cousin died in a car crash a week shy of her fifteenth birthday. “It smells like death.” I was seven years old when I said these words to my mother. We were walking on Main Street, in our small hometown, on a sunny summer day. It was a quaint setting, yet this sentence came out of my mouth. We were passing in front…

Caught In The Spotlight

The Last Waltz — The Band’s Decadent And Heartbreaking Farewell Concert — It was Thanksgiving 1976. Five thousand people reunited at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco were served a traditional dinner with turkey and pumpkin pie.

Time To Be Movin On

Rick Danko’s Self-Titled Album — An Unsung Gem — If you ever watched The Last Waltz — and since you are reading this blog post about Rick Danko, I suppose you had — you are familiar with the song Sip The Wine. In a segment of the movie, Rick plays this heartbreaking song for Martin Scorsese. This moment possesses…

Feeling Too Much

I discovered that I was autistic at 32 years old — I am self-diagnosed autistic. Which one of these words disturbs people the most? Self-diagnosed or autistic? Probably a mix of both. They think I am a hypochondriac woman who tries to find an excuse to be weird. And the word autistic confuses them; too often they imagine we all are…

There Must Be A Different Place

My Modest Tribute To Rick Danko The most beautiful smile in the world. These words instantly come to my mind when I think about Rick Danko — which is often. He’s the first member of The Band I laid eyes on when I came across The Last Waltz on PBS several years ago. He’s the one…

My 90210 Years

Beverly Hills, 90210 offered me an escape from my existence I am ashamed to say that I watched season 1 of Beverly Hills, 90210 and that I’m now in the middle of season 2. Why am I ashamed? Because I’m a fan of sitcoms. I’m the kind of woman who constantly re-watched Friends and Seinfeld. Besides, I have a soft…

One Voice For All

The Influence Of Music From Big Pink, The Band’s First Album For those familiar with the album Music From Big Pink, the title brings to mind quaint images of the house where the legendary basement tapes with Bob Dylan took place. Even though The Band didn’t actually record Music From Big Pink in Big Pink, the album conveys the spirit of…

Another Tale To Tell

Rick Danko and Bob Dylan — 1965–1967 — This Wheel’s On Fire — The 1965 Tour Bob Dylan and Rick Danko met in 1965, when they were both at a crossroads in their lives. In March, Bob had released Bringing It All Back Home, an album ingeniously blending electric songs with folk ones. Four months later, the Newport Festival, famously known as when “Dylan went electric,”…
