A friend alerted me to this. Check out Levon's website, http://levonhelm.com/

At least he knocked back the cancer enough to win 2 Grammies over the last few years.

I grew up in Arkansas and saw Levon around town and playing in local clubs many times when he played with Ronnie Hawkins and The Hawks.

RIP fellow Arkie.

Very sad indeed. The night a friend made me watch a video of The Last Waltz for the first time changed my life!

Sad news.

I remember when I bought "The last waltz" for my first VideoTape-Player long time ago. What a concert ... =D>

RIP Levon
