Happy Birthday Robbie Robertson
Robbie Robertson, formerly the guitarist/songwriter/leader of The Band turns 71 today.
He's gotten a bad rap since the breakup of The Band, in 1976. Greedy, manipulative, responsible for the breakup, The cause of one of the longest feuds in music, between him and Levon Helm.
Maybe it's time to give him a break. It's been close to 40 years. All of The Bands singers are gone. Just Robbie and Garth are left.
At least we can let it go for one day to celebrate. Happy Birthday, Robbie. Enjoy your day.
"Take a load of Robbie...and put the load right on me"
