#Quote
1I started working with [Bob Dylan] in 1965. We did go through a lot of changes from '65 to '74, a lot of changes. By 1974, everything had straightened itself out.
2It's hard for me to sit around and discuss what I do--I'm used to hearing other people talk about what I do. It makes me very uncomfortable.
3I saw Ronnie Hawkins play near my hometown, Port Dover, Ontario, and I saw him play there on New Year's Eve and the following spring I booked myself to be his opening act on maybe five shows, and he hired me after the first night.
#Fact
1Used a Gibson Ripper bass for the farewell performance, commemorated in the Scorsese film The Last Waltz, of The Band.
2Prefered to play the bass with a pick rather than the traditional two-finger plucking style.
3Favored ampeg and traynor amps.
4Elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (as a member of the Band) in 1994.
