R.I.P Levon and thank you for all the inspirations you have sent our way.
A great singer and drummer that made it look like fun and easy.
Another Arkansas born musician gone to cancer, I did not know he was an actor and could play any instrument he was handed.
If he was in a band he made them sound good.
Thank you for sharing this
 
Was diffinatly A great, and a Great Band together. Some other good hits.

Reacting to the news of Levon Helm's death on April 19, 2012, Hudson released the following statement on his website:
"Levon Helm left us today at 1:30 PM, Thursday, April 19, 2012. I am terribly sad. Thank you for 50 years of friendship and music. Memories that live on with us. No more sorrows, no more troubles, no more pain. He went peacefully to that beautiful marvelous wonderful place. He was Buddy Rich's favorite rock drummer ... and my friend. Levon, I'm proud of you. -Garth"[11]
