And All the Bells Were Ringing

West Virginia

Levon Helm (May 26, 1940 – April 19, 2012). Drummer for The Band.

Perhaps, his most famous song.

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down. Click and sing it with Levon. Like you mean it.

For the April Challenge, Contrasts.

Other entries can be seen here.

Also submitted for the Weekly Challenge "It's All About Light." In this case, literally and metaphorically.

Beautiful image. So sad to hear one of rocks greatest has past on. The Band was great in 74 Day on The Green #2, CSN&Y, Jesse Colin Young, Joe Walsh & Barnstorm. I remember watching the Croz enjoying their set from the side of the stage. RIP along with Rick Danko & Richard Manuel. And Dick Clark...sad week for R&R
