The main songwriter in The Band and he went on to have a pretty fine career afterwards with his solo music and collaborations with Martin Scorsese. Somewhere Down the Crazy River remains a personal favourite from his solo stuff but he’ll probably be best remembered for writing The Weight. RIP link

That's too bad. He was a tremendous songwriter. My parents were huge fans. One of my mom's last requests was that we hire a live band to play Up On Cripple Creek at her funeral, which we did, much to the chagrin of some of the more straight-laced family members.

Uggggh, this sucks. So influential, such a massive impact on North American music. My brother's probably going to message me when he reads the news, Robbie and the Band are one of his greatest influences in his own songwriting and performing.
