For fans of the Band and of Levon Helm, this concert is a creative twist on their music. Maybe not ideal for hardcore Band fans, but for someone who finds them to be a decent group, you may find this to be interesting cover work by real top quality and world class musicians. John Mayer, Joan Osborne, Joe Walsh, David Bromberg, Gregg Allman, and Roger Waters are only a few of the several special guests.
This benefit concert was held in honor of Levon Helm and to help his family keep his Woodstock farm, Kingston, NY, in the family.
It was for a really good cause and I liked it because they perform all of the songs from the Band records I listen to including "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," "The Weight," and "Ophelia."
