Sinopse
Robbie Robertson passed away Aug 9, 2023. We were born a year apart and once we were both making and playing music we crossed paths over the years. What was special about the relationship was that we talked like two friends who loved the same music and artists. I was fascinated by his Indigenous roots and he couldn’t believe that I had been a Mountie. We discovered that we both found our musical roots through late-night radio. I was completely in awe of the Border Radio of Wolfman Jack on XERB Del Rio Texas. Hard driving r&b, blues, conjunto and zydeco at midnight. Radio under the blankets and pillows. Robbie was doing the very same thing in downtown Toronto and with his Mom’s family at Six Nations of the Grand River Reserve. Robbie of course went on to become a legendary guitarist and songwriter. From Ronnie Hawkins Hawks to The Band to playing with Bob Dylan when he decided to introduce electric backing to his folk audience. They were decidedly not happy with Bob or The Band.
