	A Tribute to Rick Danko
		Danko, though best known for his work with The Band, was enjoying a successful solo career, and just released his first solo CD in nearly two decades, "Live On Breeze Hill", to benefit Greenpeace.
		Rick Danko is survived by his wife, Elizabeth, and children Lisa,30 and Justin,28.
		I had the privilege of hearing Rick and Garth Hudson, another member of The Band perform at The Day in the Garden concert which coincidentally took place 30 years to the day at the original spot of the famous '69 event.

	In loving memory of Richard Clare Danko
		Rick quit school at 14 to pursue music full-time and in 1960, when he was 17, he joined rockabilly singer Ronnie Hawkins’ group, The Hawks, initially as rhythm guitarist.
		The concert, which featured an unprecedented all-star lineup to which The Band graciously played back-up, was documented in Martin Scorsese’s much lauded film, The Last Waltz, regarded by many as the finest concert film of all time.
		Rick was joined on this mostly live outing by some of the finest musicians in the business, including Band-mate Garth Hudson and long-time collaborator and Band co-producer Aaron Hurwitz.

		In August, Danko appeared with several other alums of the 1969 Woodstock fest at the (non-violence-plagued) A Day in the Garden at Max Yasgur's famous farm in Bethel, New York.
		During the mid-'60s, Danko rented a pink house near Woodstock and the Band's debut album, 1968's Music from Big Pink, was recorded there.
		Danko is survived by his wife, Elizabeth, daughter, Lisa, 30, and son, Justin, 28.

		Danko had performed shows there with Merle Saunders' Rain Forest Band and the New Riders of the Purple Sage which were filmed for release later this year.
		Danko recounted much darker times which included the loss of a son; the death of Richard Manuel and of his parents.
		Even while his body was confined in Japan, Rick's music stayed in motion with the release of the first CD issue from the new Woodstock Records company, Rick Danko In Concert; a collection of recent set favorites recorded live at the Orpheum Theater in Foxborough, MA on Lincoln's birthday this year.

		This version of the song is a fitting coda to Danko's life, lingered over lovingly and masterfully by the Crowmatix with Band cohort Garth Hudson, a veritable one-man Fellini soundtrack on accordion.
		Rick Danko wrote this song together with Clapton when The Band was based at Malibu and operating from their clubhouse / studio Shangri-La. Eric put it on his No Reason To Cry album.
		Danko's voice, while remaining the distinctly mournful instrument of his youth, mellowed to equal parts milk and whiskey.

		About the latter, Danko is quoted by Rob Bowman in the liner notes of The Band CD reissue as laughing that he was "a little too drunk, a little too high"- may I remind you that he broke his stupid neck, damaged his back, and got at least one nifty facial scar.
		Rick had become a veritable stand-up comedian, his between-song patter now getting equal time with the music, but the humor's implicit jadedness was overwhelming and inescapable.
		In total, Rick's segments here made me feel the same way I had at the Hotel Syracuse show: that the world of grownups living real lives is hard and scary and ugly and full of self-delusion, and that I'll forever be an alien in it--nothing like what he intended anyone to feel I'm sure.

		And, as such, they brought Danko, the Canadian son of a farmer, and his three Northern brethren-along with the Southern bred Helm-fame, fortune and riches far beyond any of them could have dreamed when they met and plied their trade in Canadian honky tonks in the late 1950s.
		Danko, along with the other group members, paid his dues with a grueling three years of one-night stands and rehearsals, which, by the ripe age of 20, left him with an undeniable musical education.
		In 1978, his debut solo album, the self titled "Rick Danko," was hailed by fans and critics as a strong continuation of the Band’s sound.

		Helm and Robbie Robertson were in the electrified backup band at Dylan’s controversial Forest Hills concert of August 28, 1965.
		With the exception of a joint appearance in 1969 at the Isle of Wight Festival in Britain, the Band rarely worked with Dylan in the early Seventies.
		But shortly after the group played at the Watkins Glen concert in July 1973 (documented on a 1995 live album), it joined Dylan in the studio for his Planet Waves.

		Danko recorded with Folk legend Eric Andersen and Norwegian singer/songwriter Jonas Fjeld in 1991 and one sidebar of the trio's collaboration was an award-winning album, Danko Fjeld Andersen (Stageway), which was honored in Norway with a Spellemans Pris (the Norwegian Grammy) for 'Record of the Year' and was released in late 1993 by Rykodisc.

	In Concert by Rick Danko: Album Reviews
		Perhaps the least heralded of the three great vernacular singers that made up the front line of the Band (Robbie Robertson doesn't count, at least not as a singer), Rick Danko may well have been the glue and the heart of the whole enterprise.
		Danko always seemed bare, open and naked when he sang this song in the Band's standard live set, and his solo career, in a way, mirrored it, with Danko sounding like an increasingly frayed nerve.
		Danko's death in 1999 makes this a particularly precious document of one of the most unique and unsung voices in rock.

	Review: Rick Danko: 1942-1999
		Rick Danko, the thumping bottom to The Band, the creators of roots rock, country rock, civil war rock, whatever you want to call it, has died after battling a heart condition and drug addiction.
		The sun was shining and a concert was blowing off the top of the little mountain we were on-we were standing on a cooler holding onto the chicken wire that surrounded the stage.
		Ricks performance of "It makes no difference" is one of the most passionate recordings in the last 50 years of rock n roll, if not the tops.

		One of Danko's side projects, the critically acclaimed trio Danko/Fjeld/Andersen, in February released its second album, Ridin' on the Blinds, on the Rykodisc label.
		Danko said there are many old Band songs on which he and the others should have been credited as co-writers, instead of being credited solely to Robbie Robertson.
		Danko feels that the "new" Band -- with original members Danko, Helm and Garth Hudson augmented by Ciarlante, Jim Weider and Richard Bell -- is every bit as valid as the "old" Band.

	Last Thoughts On Rick Danko [January 2000, Renaissance Online Magazine]
		The question is posed to singer/bassist Rick Danko by director Martin Scorcese.
		Rick Danko, little known as he may be, belongs on the bill, not because they were friends and collaborators of his but because they were his company, his peers, in the cream of our musical crop.
		In the proper context of American art, the music of Rick Danko and The Band totals more than just melody and verse; as a symbolic sum, the songs form a question to our national character, a mirror to our sky and land, a hand to our collective heart.
