The Band website archives are alive!

Jan Hoiberg & crew have set up the no longer active The Band website, but the archives are no available @ the same old website address. The website was arguably the best music artist-related website available thanks to Jan & crew's diligent work.

Interesting reply from a reader to our Brown album post.

The Band wanted to name the album 'Harvest' (my favorite unused album title) however, the record company didn't want any confusion on the name of the band on the second album so they wanted 'The Band' written on the cover. The Band, however, was not interested in having a bunch of words on the cover and opted to just write: 'The Band'

Beverly D'Angelo was a Hawk.

Some are surprised to find out that Beverly D'Angelo was a Hawk (backup singer) w/ Ronnie Hawkins in the '70s. D'Angelo is well known for her Ellen Griswold character in the National Lampoon Vacation flicks. She also played Patsy Cline in Coal Miner's Daughter, same movie that had a Levon Helm cameo. D'Angelo is interviewed in Hawkins' Still Alive & Kickin' doc that focuses on his survival from a cancer bout.
