Radio KBwD is on the air




They just don't make'm like these guys anymore. We forgot where we first heard it but they were once described as the Smithsonian of American popular music which was rather ironic as only 1 of the 5 members were native to this country (the other four were Canadian).



Ladies and Gentlemen from the best concert movie ever, The Last Waltz and with horn arrangements provided by Allen Toussaint, it's The Band performing "Ophelia".

Weezer did a pretty good cover of The Weight, but a "The Band" purist like yourself would not like the discordand sound of the electric guitar. However, it brought a great song to a new generation.

"Discordant", Eldo's word for the electric guitar in the days of my youth.
