Very profound. Reading Robbie's book Testimony I would say he had more than a full life. Having lived to 80 I suppose is a long life, however as I'm approching that age my self, not so sure. His life was not always easy, especially some of his childhood and teenage years. His stepfather got more and more abusive to Robbie and his mother, gave Robbie a black eye, hit him so hard once he fell against a wall and got a nasty bruise on his face. Also hit Robbie's dog, which Robbie never forgave him for. After his mother divorced Robbie's stepfather things got better, she encouraged Robbie in his dreams to become a musician. When he hooked up with Ronnie Hawkins, Ronnie, Levon and others would often stay at Robbie's house, his mother charged reasonable rate and apparently she was quite a cook.

His records with Emmy Lou Harris are gorgeous!

This song is an elegy to Richard Manuel, who along with Robbie Robertson, was one of the original members of The Band. Manuel, who was the Band's pianist and sometimes vocalist, was found hanging in the bathroom of a motel room in Winter Park, Florida on March 4, 1986. The group had re-formed (without Robertson) and played in Winter Park, Florida the preceding night. Manuel had serious problems with addiction for most of his life, but got sober when The Band started touring again in the '80s. He began abusing drugs and alcohol again in 1985, which likely contributed to his death. Eric Clapton's "Holy Mother" on his 1986 album August is also a tribute to Richard Manuel as is "Too Soon Gone," The Band's tribute to Richard from their 1993 album Jericho. "Fallen Angel" was the first single Robertson released as a solo artist. He wrote the song with Martin Page, who had co-written the hits "These Dreams" and "We Built This City." In our interview with Page, he explained: "Robbie was playing with lyrical ideas for a huge period of time and every time I would go back to the Village (the recording studio in Los Angeles) to work with him, it was quite frustrating, because I thought we were doing very well and he'd say, 'I've changed the words.' He would sing it and ask me, 'What do you think?' And I'd say, 'Well, I think it's all good, Rob. Really good.' Everything he did I thought was fine. But then one special day he called me and he said, 'I really have what this song's about.' At first it was going to be called 'War of Angels,' and it was going to be the idea of fallen angels actually falling out of heaven and touching hell. He was really getting into this kind of biblical place. But all of a sudden, very emotionally he said to me, 'It's about Richard.' And I could see in his face that he'd nailed it. It was his special song to Richard Manuel. I think it was a great testament to his undying friendship for his friend who left a little too early." This song features Peter Gabriel on keyboards. Gabriel also provides vocals on the chorus accompanying Robbie Robertson. The Robbie Robertson album won the Juno Award for Album of the Year in 1989.

Steve Morse great story! What a treat it must have been to work with him. He is someone I have always wanted to meet. My mother passed away the year this album was released. This song in particular, stood out for me when thinking of my mother's long battle with cancer and untimely death at a pivotal time in my life. I included a few lines from the song in a tribute to her in my high school year book as she died the summer leading into my senior year. Robbie is not only a talented musician, lyricist, and artist, but also a great ambassador for Native Americans and Indigenous people in North America. Although he is in his 70's now and put on a few pounds since this video, he still sounds and looks great. He may not have the greatest vocal range, but knows how to deliver a melody in a distinct way and feel that he is able to connect with the listener and relay a story with emotional depth.

Are you out there? Can you hear me? Can you see me in the dark? I don't believe it's all for nothing It's not just written in the sand Sometimes I thought you felt too much And you crossed into the shadow land And the river was overflown And the sky was fiery red You gotta play the hand that's dealt ya That's what the old man always said Fallen angel Casts a shadow up against the sun If my eyes could see The spirit of the chosen one In my dream the pipes were playing In my dream I lost a friend Come down, Gabriel, and blow your horn 'Cause some day we will meet again Fallen angel Casts a shadow up against the sun If my eyes could see The spirit of the chosen one All the tears, all the rage All the blues in the night If my eyes could see You kneeling in the silver light Fallin', fallin', fallin' down Fallin', fallin' down Fallin', fallin', fallin' down Fallin', fallin' down Fallin', fallin', fallin' down Fallin', fallin' down Fallen angel Casts a shadow up against the sun If my eyes could see The spirit of the chosen one All the tears, all the rage All the blues in the night If my eyes could see You kneeling in the silver light If you're out there, can you touch me? Can you see me? I don't know If you're out there, can you reach me? And lay a flower in the snow Fallin' down, fallin' down Fallin' down, fallin' down Fallin' down, fallin' down Fallin' down, fallin' down Fallin' down, fallin' down

He actually sang lead on a few songs. I wish he'd done more when he was with The Band, because he has a fine voice, close to Richard's as you can hear on "The Last Waltz Reprise." His vocal on "Out of the Blue," is very good, too, probably his best vocal with The Band.

So humbled, reading these comments. These songs.....this...Somewhere Down the Crazy River, they came around at a time when i was making my way towards them. That is to say, my journey through music. I was 22. Heavy into 1960s British invasion and such. Through that, i made it into Dylan, then The Band, etc etc... But during these younger days i remember Robbies name circulating. My older cousins talking about him and his indian heritage. Years later, By the time I was immersed into The Band, they became my timeless Up North, back roading listen while driving music. I was back in 1968, amongst pines that surely looked as they did then and simultaneously the Band was with Me in 2003, 4, 5,.... Their music was like that for me. Immediate. I was never sure if i was back then or they were playing next to me. Like the image of them in upper New York next to the old car. My northern Michigan was like that. Still is. But they all felt like musical friends of mine. So, as these icons of ours from a musical renaissance one by one, say goodbye, i feel a piece of me does as well. Reality of our mortality? As long as they remain we feel safe? Comforted. When they go, it feels like floodgates of emotion for the shamen of our youth. Our elders. Their wisdom. All the while, they were simply living and doing, playing and making music.....but it resonates to our cores. Thank you for the music Robbie. Reading everyones words here shows Me what one person, along with a group of like minded individuals can leave behind. Many deeply touched souls with wonderful memories. 1987 seems like yesterday. By the time i fully immersed in The Band, Robbie was 60. Time waits for no one. Our memories and the music will take us the rest of the way. R.I.P. Robbie.

Rest in peace dear Robbie!! One of the Greatest gifts we were ever given 💔

Manual is still much missed. Such an elegiac tribute And now Robertson, who loved him so. Ahhhhh

Believe it or not, Martin Page (yes, the "In the House of Stone and Light" guy) composed this song. He approached Robbie with the basic tune, and the two of them worked on the lyrics and refinements of the song together. This is quite possibly the most beautiful of his compositions. Another great one that they did together was Robbie Robertson's "Sign of the Rainbow." It's hard to get through either song without crying, the music is so moving.

R.I.P Robbie Robertson. A moving song from a marvelous album.

Peter Gabriel on backing vocals, this whole album filled with guest appearances, from people like Bono and The Edge from U2 to Rick Danko on the song Sonny Got Caught A great album that really never got the attention it deserved

Back to Spirit you beautiful beam.of Light. So proud to be from the blood of our Six Nations

RIP Robbie Robertson. It was this song on a Peter Gabriel rarities collection I had once where I heard Robbie for the first time. It's still good to this day!

I really liked this guy and his music. Rest in peace Robbie and keep the music playing in heaven. Your music is as unique as yourself ever was 😊❤

It did get the Juno Award for "Album of the Year", and producers Lanois and Robertson won the "Producer of the Year" Juno award. So that's some attention. But I agree that this masterpiece of an album should be better known.

A beautiful song........... Many years since I last heard this

Great song,with Gabriel's ghostly harmonies..
