Max Reebo’s Pick of the Week: “When I Paint My Masterpiece”

Max Reebo’s pick this week is “When I Paint My Masterpiece” by The Band.

The sixties and seventies were decades before my time, however, I’ve always been a lover of music regardless of when it came out. Surprisingly, I went a long time without ever know who The Band was. Yes, The Band. When a musical group can simply call themselves that, they better bring it.

The group started out as a backup band for Ronnie Hawkins and later Bob Dylan. In 1970 they went off on their own as The Band and started a career that stretched into ten studio albums. If you’ve never seen the band, I highly recommend checking out the documentary that Martin Scorsese did, The Last Waltz.

There are a lot of good songs to choose from, classics like “The Weight”, “Up On Cripple Creek”, “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down”, and “Don’t Do It.” And let us not forget, “When I Paint My Masterpiece” from Cahoots.
