  • Odds & Ends: Get Up Jake
    Jul 16 2025
    In our series Odds & Ends we dig into Band deep-cut, “Get Up Jake”. You’ll hear how a scrappy LA studio outtake grew into a live showstopper on Rock of Ages, and even survives as a raw hotel-room demo. We’ll break down its driving groove, Helm’s backbeat, Danko’s bouncing bass and that shout-along chorus and compare the lean, two-minute studio take to the full-throttle live version and the stripped-down Calgary jam.

  • Interview: Stephen Lewis Returns
    Jun 9 2025
    Stephen Lewis returns to explore his new book Richard Manuel: His Life and Music, from the Hawks and Bob Dylan to The Band. We explore the life and struggles of Richard Manuel, diving into his early years, his role in the Band, and the toll fame took on his confidence. We talk about the dual identity Richard held—as both a gifted performer and a deeply sensitive songwriter. The conversation covers the highs and lows of Richard’s career: the creative energy he brought to the group, his battles with addiction, and the tensions that shaped the band’s relationships. They examine the challenges of collaboration, how personal issues affected the music, and the impact of the 1980s on artists like Richard. Make sure you pre-order the book today.

  • Levon Helm '82
    Apr 22 2025
    Levon Helm’s move to Capitol Records in the early '80s was his final shot at keeping his musical vision alive. His bold choice to record at the iconic Muscle Shoals Sound Studio represented his commitment to authentic Southern rock at a time when synth-pop and MTV hits dominated the airwaves. Featuring a remarkable lineup of musicians, his second solo album, simply titled "Levon Helm," embodied his dedication to musical honesty over commercial success. Songs like "You Can't Win 'Em All" and "Money" showcase Helm’s gritty realism and uncompromising style. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I am a new fan of The Band and also of this podcast. Great mix of music clips from The Band as well as interesting discussions about each member. Also extremely relaxing to listen to.
