One of the most appreciated bands,Ā The Band, started on Sunday, the 17thĀ at ca. 10.00 pm. They were known for excellent Folk-Rock, almost better than most US-based Folk bands, succeeding their mentor and former employer Bob Dylan.Ā What can be said about this set? This is the renaissance of Folk-Rock performed at this historic musical event. “I Shall Be Released” is played so sweet that even Mr. Dylan would have smiled.Ā The Band had only one album by hand so far: The cult albumĀ Music From Big Pink, released in 1968. But their music didn’t fall short. In fact they had been around for many years. They played seven of the eleven songs from that album, taking a careful try atĀ Bob Dylan, too but not as excessive as for instanceĀ The Byrds. “The Weight” is their last song (before the encore), a song that was already made famous by the biker movieĀ Easy Rider.
