Product: Classic Albums: The Band - The Band (1997)
Rating: 5.0
A documentary on a classic album
When purchased I thought it may have been an older concert they had put on to dvd. When it came in I found out it was a documentary on the making of the Bands self titled album. Then I thought it would be some thirty year old documentary they put on dvd. But I was very suprised and glad I bought it. Just recently made, I believe in 1997, it interviews each of the living members of the Band even Robbie. Each telling how the album came together. Levon and Robbie, who take a few of the songs and put them on a mixing board to let you hear the individual voices and instruments, I found to be the most interesting. For any fan of the Band this is one you have to have. It talks about one the greatest albums ever made. Also purchased The Band Live at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. It was everything I thought it would be.
