The Band
Rock of Ages
Capitol - 2 LP set in a thick tri-fold jacket on 180g vinyl
Limited double 180gm vinyl LP pressing of this classic album from the influential band who single-handidly pioneered Americana, roots rock, country rock and heartland rock. The double-album Rock of Ages occupies a curious yet important place in Band history. Recorded at a spectacular New Years Eve 1971 gig, the show and album were intended to be a farewell of sorts before The Band took an extended break in 1972, but it turned out to be a last hurrah in many different ways, closing the chapter on the first stage of their career, when they were among the biggest and most important rock `n' roll bands. Allen Toussaint did the horn arrangements and Bob Dylan guests (as do many other musicians) as Robertson, Danko, Helm, Manuel and Hudson conjure up the magic.
