One of my all-time favorites. Great in concert. Never played arenas or other large venues (for various reasons).

A band I was in (the least successful one LOL) did several of their songs.

I got to "sing" (using that word very loosely) "Cripple Creek" from the brown album.

Got a recording of that?

There's a very good Band that does all of their music. I've seen them many times. The call themselves the The Band band. https://youtu.be/ENxalzqWCk0?
