Another song that forever imprinted itself into many who heard it upon its release is
"I Shall Be Released": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-XwB8ex ... ure=relmfu.

Hi,

So sorry to hear about Levon Helm. What a man. I saw variations of The Band many times in New York and attended their last gig(with four of the original five members) at The Lone Star shortly before Richard Manuel took his own life . They were something else.
May you rest in peace Levon and many thanks for the music.

All the best,
Merton
