The Band - 1985-01-07 - Lone Star Cafe, New York, NY (SBD)

The Band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.  Robbie Robertson, who had left the group after the Last Waltz in 1976, was present for the ceremony.  Unfortuantely, Levon Helm did not attend due to a dispute with Robertson.  Rick Danko, Garth Hudson and Robertson played The Wait, backed by Eric Clapton on guitar, marking the first time Robbie had perfromed with his band mates since their 1976 farewell show. Clapton, by the way, had delivered The Band's induction speech.  We'll have the msuical highlights from the 1994 ceremony, including The Weight, later this month.

This soundboard recording captures 3/4 of the post Last Walt Band (Danko, Hudson, and Richard Manuel (once again Levon is missing!) at one of their favorite venues, the Lone Star Cafe, on January 3, 1985, 39 years ago today.
