Levon Helm (May 26, 1940-April 19th, 2012)

"Levon Helm left us today at 1:30 PM, Thursday, April 19, 2012. I am terribly sad. Thank you for 50 years of friendship and music. Memories that live on with us. No more sorrows, no more troubles, no more pain. He went peacefully to that beautiful marvelous wonderful place. He was Buddy Rich's favorite rock drummer ... and my friend. Levon, I'm proud of you." -Garth Hudson, The Band



If you've never seen the Last Waltz, or you just haven't seen it in a while, I would recommend checking it out this weekend to celebrate Levon and his incredible talent.

Levon, you will be missed.
