I agree ^ with Soldier. Concerning The Band.
With
Levon Helm on (drums, mandolin, guitar, & vocals).
He is also a fairly good actor and played in a number of movies.
My favorite movie that he played a part in was, Coal Miners Daughter. (Helm) portrayed Loretta Lynn's
Father in the move. Along with (Sissy Spacek) as Loretta Lynn. Coal Miners Daughter is a (biography) movie classic in my opinion.
