THE BAND
The Band. Such a simple name for such a legendary outfit, but also a completely apt piece of definitive musical description; its terseness only serves to draw you in. They are famous of course for their groundbreaking work with Bob Dylan, inside and outside at Woodstock, for concocting The Basement Tapes and Music from Big Pink; for starring in their own Martin Scorsese movie – the epic The Last Waltz – and for reinventing the country rock and roll soul wheel.
