About the album

Recorded in a pool house in the Hollywood Hills, the album blends rock, country, folk, blues and old-time music, with Levon Helm, Rick Danko and Richard Manuel trading voices over Garth Hudson's inventive keyboards and Robbie Robertson's guitar.

"Up on Cripple Creek" funks with clavinet, "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" is a powerful story-song, "Rag Mama Rag" is joyous, "Whispering Pines" is achingly lovely, and "King Harvest (Has Surely Come)" is a soulful closer.

Recorded in a pool house, though nobody seems to have gone for a swim.
