Very sad about Robin...I was checking the net in the wee hours of the morning, 3 a.m. EDT to hear anything about Robin, then I read that Levon Helm's in the last stage of cancer. Both of these very talented people will be sorely missed. Yesterday, I played Bee Gee songs; today I'll play Band songs. I love how the Bee Gee's song from around '68 (I've Gotta Get a Message to You) has sort of a Mussel Shoals feel to it. Great piano blues. And Levon had a great blues voice, too...one of the songs I love and which always makes me smile is "When You Awake." Rock on forever, Robin and Levon! Prayers and thank you to you both for great songs from my childhood on.
