Thank you Mr. Gibbs.
Garth was magic. My favourite band and it seemed to swirl around Garth. I saw them live three times and never could get enough of them. Will always hold The Band in highest esteem. My favourite music and musicians. RIP
I sure felt the passing of Garth; the last living member of the band. Thanks for the words of appreciation.
A few weeks ago I took a ride to Woodstock NY… just to get out for the day… I stopped by the cemetery there… to pay my respects to Levon Helm and Rick Danko who are both buried there… of course I thought of all of the members of The Band… being there and in the area, where that music came from… it’s hard losing so many people that gave so much great memories… I’ve watched the Garth Hudson video several times… and I will again… as an honor to the man. Rest well Garth Hudson… thank you for all the music 🎶 💐 🌎🕊️
Thank you for this dedication - The Band have now all departed and we will always remember them
Ah crap. I missed that Robbie had died. Damn 😔
Been avoiding all news lately. Thanks for the heads up.
Yes, a rough week for news...
I saw him play with Dylan in Syracuse in 1965. My very first concert at the age of 12. Beat that. 😊
I met Garth when I was a teenager. He was probably about the age I’m at now (50-something). He couldn’t have been more kind to me. He found out that I was in a band and he ended up taking my keyboard player/friend under his wing and became his teacher! Those are epic memories for us and we’re so grateful to Garth! ❤
Hey Otis I saw the Band a few times as a teenager in the early 70's. Everyone of those guys were so talented, but together man pure magic. I got to see Garth again in around 2011 at Levon Helm Studios. They were doing a tribute to Richard and Rick and Garth sat in on a few. He was getting up there in age was a little hunched over as he approached the keyboard but when he hit those keys it was amazing. I'm a big fan of Brian Mitchell and loved seeing him absolutely beaming playing along with Garth. Not sure but might have been last time Garth and Levon played together. Love your videos.
After Robbie left The Band I thought they were done but in the 80’s they picked up Jim Weider on guitar and toured. It was said that Jim was Levon’s cousin but I don’t know about that. They played a venue in Charlotte NC called PB Scott’s. The show was incredible and afterwards , my wife and me hung out by the artist’s entrance and waited for them to come out. I had my old Polaroid camera, hoping to get lucky. Well I got lucky. They seemed surprised that we were there. They agreed to do some photos and then signed them. Just to break the ice I asked Levon about making the film The Right Stuff. That was the right question. Levon talked about that experience for quite a while. Both he and Rick were happy to talk with us but Richard and Garth were extremely shy and just hung back. It was a night I will never forget. Otis, if you would like to see the pictures just PM me. Garth was for me the heart and soul of that band. A true musical genius.
Absolutely nothing can stop the cosmic wheels of time. A generation comes and generation goes. Once we were young and The Band were our heroes. Now they’re gone and we are not so young anymore. Yet life goes on without them but their glory remains forever!
Beautifully said.
As a “Band” fan since the early seventies back in Israel where I was born I always longed to see them in concert and after moving to the US the opportunity presented itself in the late eighties in the Barn of Wolf Trap, Virginia. 3 Band members were there, Levon, Garth and Rick, it was a dream come true! A couple of years later I was amazingly fortunate to catch Rick Danko preform solo in a very small venue in Georgetown called Dylan’s Cafe. He was seated there with an acoustic guitar (no bass) and played a long set of wonderful tunes. I couldn’t help but wonder about what positive things have I done in previous lives to be awarded with such a delightful gift!
Lovely tribute Otis. You are a gifted storyteller…could listen to you for hours. Thx again.
Good morning Otis. I appreciate your morning coffee videos. The heros from my musicsl past are nearly all gone. Keep doing what youre doing sir. You are appreciated. ❤
I played a gig with Garth at the Bearsville theater and afterwards my wife and I hung out with him
We had met before through the years because we both lived in the Woodstock area and I had told my wife that he might know about one of her favorite saxophone players, Sam “the man” Taylor, he did and from there the conversation grew into a very pleasant and informative few hours. A very humble and genuine genius human being!
Rest in Peace Garth, no one is going to forget you
I saw Dylan with The Band in St. Louis in 1974. I was a student at SIU in Carbondale and tickets fell into our hands last minute. All school work was quickly forsaken and we hopped in the car. I will never forget it.
I saw them at the Isle of Wight in 1969 where they played the whole Big Pink album and then backed Dylan's set. Then again at Wembley in 1974 on a triple bill with Joni and CSN&Y. Those were the days.
Saw Garth sit in with The Call at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano back in ‘87. The Call was on fire and the addition of Garth made it a magical night. Peace to all.
I was so distressed to read about the Garth's situation at the end of his life. Several bankruptcies, living in a nursing home... That's terrible. Artists and musicians pour their lives into creating music that we enjoy forever, yet they are ripped off by the music industry and live their final years in squalor. "We" (all of us) need to do better. As much as I dislike the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, it seems to me that they are the one organization that is best positioned to help artists as they age.
yes sad to hear how many musicians struggle sam moore interview clip how was set up not to reward artists in the industry of that era i went to school witj tommy edwards nephew said once his record all in the gamesold probably a million records yet ended up suffering from alcoholism and depression and died young never saw the money he deserved seems many artists garth included end up in that situation friends dad 90 now said tommy would knock on his door sing on the porch for whatever cash he had and some liqour nobody could sing like him voice smooth as silk yet he died very poor a historical marker stands on the then rural road where he grew up recognizing remarkable achievement of a million selling record its said ella fitzgrerald is the only other singer from virginia to achieve that or mary j blige in modern era pre streaming services

Thank you for a well made statement. Whether written or sung the art of story telling has always been robbed by those who control the gates of distribution who rarely fall on bad times.
A quote from Walter Benjamin concerning modernity and alienation who perished escaping Nazi occupied Germany and France: “The art of storytelling is coming to an end … It is as if something that seemed inalienable to us, the securest among our possessions, were taken from us: the ability to exchange experiences. One reason for this phenomenon is obvious: experience has fallen in value. And it looks as if it is continuing to fall into bottomlessness.” ☮
Bless you Otis. What a wonderful eulogy. Thank you sir. He was the best.
I saw Dylan and the Band in 1974 at the Omni in Atlanta. The Band played first, then Dylan, then together. Just amazing! One of the best concerts I've ever seen!
Live recordings of that tour are on the album "Before the Flood."
Thanks Otis.
I was at Eglin AFB FL at the time and my friend and I were going to make that show but my room mate got busted and all hell broke loose.
Thanks, Otis, for this tribute to Garth Hudson. I love the Band and its difficult to think of what they would have sounded like if Garth's multi-instrument parts were edited out. I saw the vid you downloaded. Garth was a wonderful, unusual soul. I saw the Band in St. Paul in the early 70's at the old Civic. Went to the gig by myself and was stuck in the nosebleed seats. After a few tunes, I wandered around the outer foyer and, looking down the stairs, found myself right behind the Band. There were a few people sitting in the nearly empty seats, so I ended up 15 feet behind Levon Helm for the rest of the concert. Could here their short conversations between songs. They were cooking.
What a beautiful dedication. Rest in peace dear Garth. Hope you and Robbie Rick Richard and Levon are all brothers again jamming in the stars. Hard to believe they are all gone now.Rest in peace to five amazing musicians. Miss you all immensely 😢
Thanks, Otis. A nice tribute to that wonderful musician.
I saw The Band at Stanford U.outside in (I think) '76 and from the moment they started you could not help but move...such a groove .Brilliant show one of my personal favorites...and Garths solo section was mind bending of course.What a great cat ...genius
Awesome musician. RIP Garth…only got to see you live once October 22, 1983 Syracuse Carrier Dome with The Band opening for the Grateful Dead. Awesome show.
I had the great pleasure to see Garth play a few times here in Toronto. I saw he and his wife Maude play a show at the Hard Rock Cafe (the site of the former Friar's Tavern, where The Hawks used to play and where Bob Dylan came to see them in 1965), and I saw Garth open for Daniel Lanois at the Great Hall. His piano was placed on the floor in front of the stage with an overhead video camera projecting his hands onto the screen on stage. Quite possible that I saw him pop up here and there to sit in with people, if my memory serves me well (which it often doesn't). He was also a wonderful saxophonist. His tenor sax parts on "It Makes No Difference" at the Last Waltz are beautiful in their economy and style.
We are so fortunate that we have so much Band music and video. First saw these guys live at The Rockwood Club as The Hawks in Fayetteville, AR, mid 60s. Rockwood was owned by Ronnie Hawkins, club managed by Dayton Stratton. Another good book is “This Wheel’s on Fire” by Levon and Journalist Stephen Davis. The Stars were aligned when these Canadians and a hair-leg boy from Arkansas came together; just amazing. 🙏😔
I was lucky enough to see the original lineup of The Band at the Nashville Speedway in the ‘70s, and the first post-Manuel incarnation in Chattanooga in a club that held 300 in the ‘90s, standing 20 feet from the stage. Garth was amazing, as were Levon and Rick. Garth was in his sock feet, as I had read about before, and switched effortlessly between keyboards and woodwinds. He was the icing on the musical cake. An eccentric-looking musical genius. R.I.P., Mister Hudson. You were a giant.
Yet another tough loss. This video is an excellent tribute.
Thanks , Otis. As a kid I can remember hearing The Band and thinking these guys are so different and I guess the honesty of their music was what I was hearing come through. Garth was a huge part of their sound.

I did see Levon Helm and Rick Danko in concert with Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band back in 1989 at St. Paul, MInnesota's Riverfest. I was lucky to see both of them.
I saw Garth in the back room of McCabe's guitar store in Santa Monica. He was a pickup musician backing up somebody whose identity I have lost over the years. But I remember Garth.
I've seen many great musicians in that back room of McCabe's and Peter Case is performing in April for only $34. And I was happy to see that up the street Unurban coffee is still open (that's 30 years) and hosting an open mike night. Thank you for talking about McCabe's it brought up a lot of good memories.
Such a genuine tribute from you Mr Gibbs regarding one of my all time favourite musicians.. Mr Garth Hudson .. absolutely beautiful . Robbie Robertson said that Garth was the only person who could give him a piece of music for a song that no one else in the world could give him . For my dough Garth Hudson was the finest musician of the Rock era . I heard him sing for the first time ever on a video the other day and he was superb ...a proper old fashioned' eye opener ' moment ,i have to say .RIP Mr Honey Boy ...nobody ever came close to your musicality and talents .
Thank you Otis! Never saw the Band but Jim Wieder continues to tour with a great group of guys as "The Weight Band". They carry on Garth's and the Band's music and I have seen them a few times. I can recommend their show to anyone...
The Band Wembley UK 14th September 1974- fantastic gig
A beautiful tribute. In an unrelated observation, it was really cool to see the squirrel in soft focus prancing over the snow in the background. I don’t hope to dismiss the solemn tribute, but it had an artistic marvel about it.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the videos on your channel. Please keep doing what you’re doing!
Thank you Otis......remembering is such a precious gift : and we never come to know it as it truly is....until it's gone from us forever.
Stay well brother , much love , and RIP brother "Gar" ron
Thanks so much for this appreciation of that genius organist who was the heart of the Band. I sure do appreciate it. Didn't Sid Griffin do the liner notes for the Gram Parsons albums? At least some of them. The name is very familiar to me. I think he did that book on GP.
I saw Garth three times . Once at Levons Barn and two other times on the road . I saw the 80'S The Band back in the day and went to see Levon and the Midnight Ramble band a half dozen times in Woodstock, NY , Ct. , Vt. and other venues . A friend said to me once that the Ramble might not be the most amazing musical event ever seen , but it was the most fun . I agree , what a blast . Rip Honey Boy Garth
Wow, what a loss. The end of an era.
I saw The Band on their 'comeback' tour around about '95 or '96, they were touring Jericho... I grew up in the 70's with my folks spending their weekends partying on cheap red wine (anyone remember the jugs o' wine, with a wide screw top and a finger ring on the side of the neck?), bashing on guitars, and jamming away at Bob Dylan, Kris Kristofferson, Joni Mitchell, CSN(Y), and of course, The Band... So getting to see them live, after a too long hiatus was gonna be special... Music nerd that I am, went down to hall as early as I could... The theatre I went to was pretty small (900 seater), and super casual, going early I was hoping I could meet them... about a half hour after I got there, sure as shit, Levon Helm and Rick Danko come strolling through the front foyer... got a big hello, smile, and a handshake from Levon, and a few short words about looking forward to the gig, and a thanks for coming (Levon! thanking me! wtf? lol)... got a side eye look from Rick, and then a nod and a hello... Anyways, I remember the opening band being pretty good (Think it might have been The Skydiggers, from Tee-Oh Canada), also remember the openers doing a 15min encore too, cuz there was going to be a delay with The Band - Garth hadn't shown up... Finally, The Band come out to play - No Garth - apparently Garth had lost track of time and had spent the day hunting around for vintage instruments in and around Ottawa (Ontario, Canada)... They launched into a few songs, and about half way through the second or third song, Garth ambles on to the stage and quietly takes up his spot behind his organ... Levon was chuckling, and when they finished the song, with a bit of a tease he laughs into his mic and said "What's new Garth?"... without skipping a beat, Garth just said "I bought a new accordion"... It was a sweet moment, great gig...
Thanks for referring the Garth Hudson video, Otis. Wish it was about 10x longer!
Hey Otis. Thanks for your casts. Not much I'd rather go over morning coffee than listen to your stories. Maybe play my mandolin, that's it. Thanks again for sharing!
What a lovely tribute. New subscriber here. Thanks for the great video!
I was waiting for your Tribute to Garth. It was one of the best tributes to Garth.
Grand rising Otis,
Your enthusiasm is infectious and I believe what makes you resonate so much with your audience. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and insights
Much love to you
It was dark in the warehouse where the instruments were stored.Every so often the piano would whisper loudly to the other keyboard instruments in mock tough guy tones, "hey--you tryin' to play me??huh??" No response. Feeling embarrassed, the piano spoke louder, to no one in particular, "sorry, the last guy who played me beat the hell out of me, and Im still sore as Hell..." The wise violin said nothing but nodded in agreement, recalling the day that the piano had come in. A worker at the warehouse had been whistling "Great balls of fire" as he cleaned up around the piano, then said to no one in particular, "Man o man daddy-o the Killer really earned his nickname--you look half dead..." before closing the warehouse for the night.
A quiet settled in and for a while the instruments began to quietly talk amongst themselves, discussing the musicians who had played them so roughly that their tones might never be the same. Over in the guitar section, a big RIP sign was on the wall next to the Pete Townshend collection-a Civil War battlefield of Strats, necks and bodies at impossible angles. In a corner sat a Lowrey organ, just arrived from upstate NY earlier that day. The shipping crate had a name of a river--or was it a town? scratched on it in industrial strength crayon. The assembled all wanted to know its story, but it said nothing for a long hour, and then just before dawn, the quiet was broken by strains of "Chest Fever", and then the gentle weeping of guitars

ASMR. Thank you Otis for your touching tribute. Rest in Peace to Eric Garth “Honey Boy” Hudson. A true genius of his craft. It was astounding how good he was at every instrument he played. He was almost mythical with the way he seemed to exist in this life. This has been hard but it’s comforting to know that The Band is together on the other side
Thank you, Otis. We're all so grateful for your channel.
Thx so much Otis. What a gem of a video you shared. I really enjoyed your recollections of seeing Garth live
God bless him and his family, and thanks for the wonderful music 🎶🎶🙏. Thanks for informing us have a wonderful week everyone and PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
Thanks Otis.. Garth Hudson's life of music is a real inspiration . The Rolling Stone video from Big Pink captures the Man so well. His fingers flowed across the piano so magnificently.
The Band was my first concert at age 13, with Dylan!…a lifelong fan of the Band and Garth was the musical soul of the Band! RIP!
saw the Band in 69 or 70 and many times after. but I'll never forget that first time and the intro to "Chest Fever " Garth filled the room with swirling notes from the organ, otherworldly. he was a master. thanks Otis.
many thanks Otis for recommending the Garth Hudson video !.....what a beautiful soul....you were right, the music was still flowing through his fingers despite his failing body
When I was 14, my older sisters had Music from Big Pink on the turntable a lot. At first I thought, What IS this? My world was the Beatles, Stones, Byrds, etc., but over time, The Band's music really started sinking in. How lucky I was to see Garth with The Band in 1970 at the Festival Express in Toronto. Just fantastic. How unjust it was for this gentle genius to face bankruptcy, and lose his home. I hope he was well cared for in his last years.
Thanks Otis.
RIP Garth 🎹🎶🕊️
The whole Band is jammin' together again.
👍🏽🍻🙏🏼
Lucky to see The Band twice in 1976 at The Lenox Music Inn MA.Great shows first date they were late getting there the road truck broke down so the crowd had to move over to let the truck in for them to set up.Couldn’t play long because The venue didn’t have lights…so they came back later to make up for the short set
I was told a nice little story in a club about Garth from a Canadian touring musician. The band were driving past Woodstock and one of the old Toronto road crew guys said that they better stop by Garth's as he would be upset if he found out they didn't stop and visit. The musician I knew was more than surprised when the Garth they were casually talking about was 'that' Garth! It seems that Garth loved the techs and roadies he grew up with and he stayed close to them. The funny part of the visit was when Garth said the 'Bob" was coming by anytime to fix his washing machine. The 'Bob' was that Bob.... Dylan. Even if it's not true, I love the story as it smacks of Garth's authenticity.
RIP to the great teacher.
Yeah....! Garth was GARTH! And every molecule in that guy was MUSIC 🎵🎵🎵!!
Only ONE of him!! Thanks Otis...👍👍
Listening to The Basement Tapes record. Thank you for your channel
Thanks for this little tribute to Garth. 🥰🎶
Hi Otis and thank you for what you do man! I got to see Garth in about 2002 playing in Burrito Deluxe with Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Carlton Moody and Jeff Davis. RIP Garth.
Saw The Band open for The Allman Brothers in the early 90s. I went to see the Brothers and was blown away by The Band.
some algorithm basically sent me here and i am glad it did. it's nice to see hudson being spoken of so lovingly. hudson was a unique member of a unique band.
Love this Otis !
Thank you Otis
I never got to see Garth, but Barbara OBrien, Levon's manager at the Barn in his latter years in Woodstock, knew him, and while he was alive she was taking him notes from fans she knew, which she would deliver to him personally. I think she actually read them to him. It was a few years ago. I am really grateful that I was able to send him a message from my heart to his, telling him how much he had enriched my life with music.
Fabulous.
Million Dollar Bash is a great book. Goes through all the tracks! Great accompaniment to the complete Bootleg Series Basement Tapes compilaton
🌠I Enjoyed the Video of Garths visit to BIG Pink♥ Thank you Otis
Thanks for sharing
Caught the Band half a dozen times, once when Miles opened, a couple times with Bob, and The Last Waltz. Garth was always magnificent. Cool that Thomm handed off the Griffin book. You’ll dig it, it’s that million dollar bash!
The Band changed my musical direction. My friends all played in garage bands and we would exchange are musical finds, when the album Music from Big Pink came into my hands it all changed. I saw them in 1975 in Philadelphia. RIP Garth.❤
I’ll have to check that book out. I like Peter Case and Billy Bragg. That’s a great point about fidelity. One of the bands I played in when I was young, the drummer had this big black Sony tape player and would record our practices. He would mic his kit, and a mic for vocals the rest was all room sound but it sounded great.
Caught The Band after Robbie left. Garth, Rick & Levon played. INCREDIBLE!
Loved the work Garth did on Mercury Rev’s album Deserter’s Songs.
A music wizard.
Wow I didn’t know- and last night II just watched the documentary on Dylan’s basement tapes at the Big Pink house featuring Garth. Thank you Otis for this dedication to a great man and musician ❤
RIP Garth 🙏🤲🙌💯🎵🙏🪽🎶💖
I saw The Band when they did their four night residency at the Academy of Music, the shows that eventually became the “Rock of Ages” album. They were on fire the night we saw them. Of course the big surprise came after the intermission when they brought out the horn section. The “Rock of Ages” album begins with the first song from the second set, “Don’t Do It”-kind of odd. The night we saw them, they opened the first set with “The Rumor”, followed by a mixture of old favorites and a few songs from “Cahoots”, which had been released earlier that year. When Garth did his “The Genetic Method” solo, his Leslie speakers were really distorted. At the time, my main instrument was Hammond organ, and I preferred a cleaner, non-distorted sound, so I found myself a little disappointed. I much preferred his solo on the live album.
For my money, Garth’s finest work was on “Northern Lights Southern Cross.” It was without question his album. At that point he’d incorporated Yamaha synthesizers in his setup. He also played various brass and woodwind instruments, displaying the apex of mastery on “It Makes No Difference.”
I have to agree, Otis-Garth was indeed a giant. But really, they all were-no weak spots in that crew. Knowing that all of The Band’s original members are gone is really hard to process. It was my good fortune to have grown up with their music.
Well said.😊
Where you saw the band was at 328 Performance Hall. I was there too... great show. Danko was alive too!
Garth was truly one of a kind.
I just heard about his death this evening. I miss his music with The Band. We're all going to die someday, but it's still painful to hear when it happens.
Yes there is something about basement tapes which every band you are in that has that magic. RIP Gareth Hudson thank you for the inspiration.
Thanks Otis

Just the others Ike Chuck berry , Dylan, The Beatles, he was a part of a new music I now hear in other bands all the time. Thank you Garth.
Beautiful tribute to Garth Hudson. I first saw The Band ( called the Hawks at that time) in 1966. They were touring with Bob Dylan as his backing band. Then I saw them again in 1971 or '72 as The Band touring in support of Music From Big Pink and The Band "The Band" albums. Both Concerts were in Memphis.
I just love book reports!
I saw them a couple of times in arena like settings and in the last waltz, Ronnie Hawkins said it all when he shouted out this is the BIG TIME.
I got to meet all of The Band members, with the exception of RR. I worked on a film with Levon Helm, so I was blessed with green room access to several Lonestar shows in NYC. In those instances, I found Garth to be generous...sometimes to an out-of-proportion amount. We had one conversation about our particular reed preferences for the saxophone. (I do not play saxophone, nor any instrument. Yet, here I was.) So when asked by Garth if I preferred a 4 or a 5, I naturally said, “Yes.”
I loved that video where he went back to Big Pink. It was magic. It's hard to be the last Mohican no doubt. He was tough.
I saw Garth in the Dylan/Band tour in '76?, at the old Capital Center outside of DC.
Without a doubt the best sounding concert I ever heard at that venue.
The Band, was the Band in all it's glory and Dylan sang like a bird! Never heard him better.
Saw Garth Hudson/ The Band at Upsala College in NJ in I believe late 68 or early 1969 when I was 16. Show was in the gym a really small space by today's standards, and they were just amazing.
