    Rest in Peace Levon
    I'll be lifted up to the clouds
    On the wings of angels
    There's only flesh and bones
    In the ground
    Where my troubles will stay

    See that storm over yonder
    t's gonna rain all day
    But then the sun's gonna shine
    Through the shadows
    When I go away

    In their time 'The Band' was the back up group that toured with Dylan.Eric Clapton wanted to leave Cream and join The Band .Their best work was their own songs with drummer and lead singer Levon Helm .

    Levon Helm battled throat cancer for a number of years . For at least 2 years he lost his voice completely . But he came back and won a couple Grammy Awards when his voice recovered .

    I hadn't realized how much acting he did until today... check out this classic line from The Right Stuff starting around 6:30 in the clip.

    After hearing of his passing I downloaded a bunch of The Band's stuff to my phone. Plugged my headphones into my phone the last couple of weekends while working in the yard and listened - good working music.
