Product Description: The All-Stars were a dream aggregation of of Levon Helm's favourite musicians, including names like Mac Rebennack (aka Dr. John), Paul Butterfield, Booker T. Jones, Donald "Duck" Dunn, Steve Cropper, Tom Malone, Alan Rubin and the two old-timers Henry Glover and Fred Carter from the Hawks-period. Only one track, "Blues So Bad", was written by Levon himself. The songs, recorded partly at Shangri-La and partly at Levon's own RCO studio in Woodstock, were mostly good-time, bar-band rhythm and blues, disappointing Band fans that still were hoping for material more like the early Band albums. Levon Helm and the RCO All Stars stopped at #142 on the album chart, despite several innovative attempts to promote the album, including a mega release party and some very memorable live dates with the All-Stars.


Review: Recorded on New Year's Day, 1977 at the now-vanished Palladium in New York, this set from the legendary Band drummer Levon Helm together with equally well-known fellow musicians like Dr. John, Paul Butterfield, and Steve Cropper is like a hype-free version of THE LAST WALTZ. Songs from the band's eponymous (and deleted) mid-'70s album like "Milk Cow Boogie" and "Rain Down Tears," the latter including Butterfield's ghostly harmonica, are interspersed with the Band favorite "Ophelia" and classics like "Sing Sing Sing" and "Got My Mojo Working." The performances are uniformly stellar, the band rocks and rolls in all the right places, and Helm is in fine voice throughout.
