Enjoy a moving and energetic tribute to Ray Charles and Richard Manuel ("The Beak") with Chest Fever's moving live rendition of "Georgia On My Mind," played at the legendary Magnolia Theater in El Cajon, CA, in November 2022. Channeling The Last Waltz, this soulful performance highlights the band's phenomenal talent—Jody Bagley on keyboards and vocals, Daniel Cervantes on guitar and vocals, Blake Dean on bass and vocals, Doug Organ on organ, and Allan Ritter on drums. Skillfully mixed and mastered by Mike Butler, and beautifully shot under the direction of Scott Rosenbaum, with breathtaking visuals by Daryl Gilmore and an indefatigable team of videographers, the performance is expertly edited by Rosemarie Kwong.

Relive a timeless live performance of "The Weight" by The Band, as it was recorded at The Last Waltz at the Magnolia. This moving tribute celebrates the great gifts of Levon Helm, Richard Manuel, Rick Danko, Garth Hudson, and Robbie Robertson, whose music continues to touch generations of fans. Composed by Robbie Robertson, this classic song best defines The Band's groundbreaking fusion of rock, folk, and soul. Issued on Blind Owl Records in 2023, this video captures the enchantment and essence of a real classic moment in music history.

The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Rock [NEW 1978 Edition] - The Band. #robbierobertson guitar, #richardmanuel piano, vocals, #levonhelm drums, vocals, #garthhudson organ, saxophone and #rickdanko bass, vocals. Together professionally since early 60s, #theband backed rock ‘n’ roller #ronniehawkins (as the Hawks) in #canada , and then began a professional relationship with #bobdylan on his 1966 U.K. tour (during which the famous #alberthallconcert , which was subsequently bootlegged, took place). In 1967, after Dylan’s motorcycle accident, they recorded the legendary #basementtapes with him at Big Pink — their communal home in #woodstock — while he was recovering. 1) The first publicity pic of the Band, getting ethnic at #bigpink .

Album Number Fifty-Three “Stage Fright” is the third studio album by the Band, released in 1970. It featured two of the group's best known songs, "The Shape I'm In" and "Stage Fright", both of which showcased inspired lead vocal performances (by #richardmanuel and #rickdanko respectively) and became staples in the group's live shows. My copy is a #capitolrecords re-issue - SN-16006 #stagefrightalbum was a contradictory record, combining buoyant music and disenchanted lyrics, and exploring themes such as peace, escape and frivolity that revealed darker shades of melancholy, anxiety and fatigue. The tradition of switching instruments continued, however, with each musician contributing parts on at least two different instruments. The album included the last two songs composed by pianist Richard Manuel, both co-written with #robbierobertson who would continue to be the group's dominant songwriter until the group ceased touring in 1976. #rockandroll #theband #theseventies #levonhelm #garthhudson https://www.instagram.com/p/CQTpfNkLIp1/?utm_medium=tumblr
