THE LAST WALTZ (1978) Grade: B

Loved Scorsese camera movements & the stage sets were an interesting move. I looked forward to the interviews. Good documentary even if you're not familiar with their music.

{ONE} RONNIE HAWKINS, THE LAST WALTZ | “COME ON ROBBIE, LET’S TAKE A LITTLE WALK…”Robbie still has to count Ronnie in … but the sound of his newly-bronzed Stratocaster summons up the rowdy rockabilly that Ronnie Hawkins traded in. “I didn’t know whether it would be a bad idea, but I decided to have the Stratocaster bronzed.

An “Intellectualized Rock ‘n’ Roll Artist:” Robbie Robertson Dead at 80

Robbie Robertson is dead.

The Band co-founder, guitarist and primary songwriter died Aug. 9, his management said in a statement.

“Robbie was surrounded by his family at the time of his death,” the statement said.

Robertson was 80; no cause was given.

“May Robbie Robertson rest in peace and love,” Todd Rundgren’s Spirit of Harmony Foundation said.

His death leaves Garth Hudson, 85, as the sole surviving Band member.

Robertson was an “intellectualized rock ‘n’ roll artist,” Michael Des Barres said.

“Robbie Robertson is so important in the history of rock ‘n’ roll music, bringing Americana and country music together … he will be remembered,” Des Barres said.

Given Robertson wrote “The Night They Drive Old Dixie Down,” “The Weight,” “The Shape I’m In,” “Stage Fright,” “Up on Cripple Creek” and scads of others, that is an understatement.

“Robbie Robertson’s words wove the fabric of the songs we all wear,” Joe Newberry said. “Rest in peace.”

“The loss of Robbie Robertson is heartbreaking,” Kiefer Sutherland said. “Canada has lost an icon, and music has lost a poet and a scholar.”

Robertson started - as his Band mates Hudson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko and Richard Manuel did - with Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks. They then became Bob Dylan’s band; then simply the Band.

“One of the all-time greats,” Tinsley Ellis said of Robertson.

When the Band split, Robertson’s output slowed considerably and he made just six LPs released between 1987 and 2019. But that didn’t faze Al Di Meola’s fandom.

“I absolutely adored Robbie Robertson,” the guitarist said. “His (self-titled) solo debut … is to this day my all time favorite pop album. … Robbie, rest in peace.”
