  • I spent all day making this! It may be just for my fellow Rick lovers out there cause it’s a bit of a long one. It’s a sequel to my first Reasons to love Rick Danko video. There are many reasons. Apologies I couldn’t help myself from talking about how cute he is every now and then haha!

    The last time I saw my friend Rick Danko was on his tour bus behind The Ark in AnnArbour Michigan. We had a laugh and a couple of drinks - but he looked terrible. He died a month later.
    RIP Rick!
    The Band will forever be my Beatles!
    Peace

    LOVE Rick Danko. The floppiest, grooviest, coolest, most foot-stomping bassist ever. Love that grin he does at the end of Old Time Religion.

    You don't get to sing like that unless you've known true pain or loss. My introduction to Rick and The Band as a whole was The Last Waltz, one of, if not THE, single greatest concert films ever put to celluloid.

    Rick was special from the start. Someone in the band said he was envious of Rick's ability to play almost any instrument he picked up. But yes the lack of technique and the grin, floppy stomping foot that's all Right On!

    I love this! I think I’ve read that the reason he was “lurking in the dark staring at Joni” was that he was unfamiliar with the song and was watching what chords she was playing. Or maybe I’m just jealous of Joni 😂

    Great compilation. Gotta love Rick! So child like. He said once that because he was a sickly child, his parents completely indulged him. He could do anything!
    I think Wembley was their worst performance of that period. They were pretty whacked and the crowd didn’t seem appreciative. They had already had hostile reactions from the Brits w/ Dylan.
    Love these guys. Poor lonely Garth now* **8/31/2023

      Interesting he was sick. That may explain his happy-go-lucky wackiness. Ringo Starr was also a sick boy and a happy-go-lucky chap. Danko was the Bands’ Ringo.

    This was fun! I love him so much. I think my favorite Rick Danko moment is when he was hanging out with Janis and Jerry performing "Ain't No More Cane" casually in "Festival Express," telling them the chords while singing.

    I have loved The Band since I first heard "Upon on Cripple Creek" in the late sixties. Robbie and Levon was always the once I associated most with the group, although I of course knew of Rick, Richard and Garth. I just finished Robbie's book "Testimony", and although I'm sure I have heard it before the song "It makes no difference" from the Last Waltz song by Rick Danko have gotten me totally enchanted by his singing and personality. I love Robbie, so talented, good looking and sexy, but there's something very sensitive and special about Rick.
