May Your Hands Be Busy and Your Feet Be Swift

Robbie Robertson, Rick Danko, Rich Manuel, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson,Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Dr. John, Emmylou Harris, Neil Diamond, Ron Wood and many more great musicans came together in 1978 and made a movie about the last concert of The Band. It's titled The Last Waltz. Just watched it again. Here's a small part of it with the great GooglyMoogly, Voodoo Child, High Priest, Slowhand, Maximum Whamma Jamma non duck walking King of guitar players...Mr. Clapton.



If you check this out be sure and catch Van Morrison doing Radio. He's all over YouTube. Wow! as Robbie Robertson said, "Van the Man!" Truly a gathering of legends in music. BTW, the title is from a Bob Dylan song. Turn it up!

"Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence."
~Robert Fripp (Yes, this quote has been used several times and is one of my favorites. What's not to like about the lead guitarist of King Crimson?}
