JTB....Good post. robertson was always different in goals and at one point that probably helped, but it was a very short time. That he screwed other members is without doubt and the way Helm feels about him is pretty well stated in Levon's book.One thing.....I DID NOT say that Levon Helm "may not be with us much longer" as you state I did. What I did say, and it is the truth, is "Levon Helm has come all too close to leaving us too."...the throat cancer could have gone either way and were it not for family, it may have gotten him. Yes, he is doing a great job and seems to be enjoying life to the fullest....I will always miss that unique and natural voice.
