Woodstock '79

By the end of the 1970s, Rick Danko found himself in an unexpected place. After the release of his first solo album on Arista Records didn’t sell well, and with management in flux, Arista dropped him. Despite this, Danko continued to tour, collaborate, and perform in smaller, more intimate venues, showcasing his character and musicianship. Collaborations with former Beach Boy Blondie Chaplin, Richard Manuel, Paul Butterfield, and even actor Gary Busey highlighted his versatility. Woodstock ‘79, a smaller and less impactful event than the original, featured Danko performing with Butterfield. This era also saw Danko contributing to Joe Cocker’s chaotic version of “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” and Larry Lee’s album “Marooned.” This period of triumph and tribulation is a testament to Danko’s enduring spirit and love for music.

Breaking New Ground

After navigating a tumultuous phase in his life marked by heavy drinking and the disbandment of The Band, Richard Manuel entered rehab, marking a pivotal step toward reclaiming his passion for music. In 1978, returned to the studio with old friend Happy Traum, contributing to Traum's debut solo album "Bright Morning Stars." He also collaborated with musicians Terry Danko and Marty Grebb and reconnected with Gerry Goffin for songwriting. Manuel's musical revival included working with Bonnie Raitt on her critically acclaimed album "Greenlight" and joining Willie Nelson and Webb Pierce for a spirited session on "In The Jailhouse Now." This period marked a creative resurgence for Manuel, blending his soulful voice and piano mastery across diverse projects while reflecting on his enduring connection to The Band.

My dad introduced me to The Band when I was in middle school. I’ve always been fascinated with their music and history ever since. This podcast relives one of the greatest bands of all time and I’m really glad I stumble upon this informative show. I’ve only had time to listen to a few select episodes but can’t wait to dive in more. Thanks for the time and effort put in to each episode!

Really enjoyed your recent Last Waltz podcast. It was very insightful. One thing, I think you should have compared the film to the concert film getting all the attention this year, Stop Making Sense which came out about 10 years later. I think the director of that one, the late Jonathan Demme, was definitely influenced by The Last Waltz. Notice though that he had no interviews in the film, just the music.
Excellent!

Great pod, I’ve listened to certain episodes multiple times. One thing I will say is the audio could be a bit louder at times (my job is loud)
