A great musician, singer and song writer.

I did not recognize his name but I sure remember his music.

Think Dick Clark commented about how music plays such a big part in our lives and Levon's body of work is a large part of the tape that plays in my head. Got a real kick out of his role in "The Shooter", perhaps not a classic but you could tell there was still some flame in his old body.

God Speed Levon.

r.i.p. Levon. I'm so sorry I did not get that notch on my belt seeing him live. He is now w so many great performers who will welcome him to his afterlife.
Loved The Last Waltz, saw it when I was like 13. Many times since.
