This Wheel's on Fire: Levon Helm and the Story of The Band

The Band, with drummer Levon Helm, is now regarded as perhaps the most important rock group of the 60s generation. From the cotton fields of Turkey Scratch, Arkansas, where Helm was raised, to Greenwich Village to Woodstock, this book bares his soul & memory, replaying the tumultuous history of the times — & the Band that epitomized those times. From first hearing Sonny Boy Williamson & seeing Elvis perform, through a torrid life on the road, Helm has lived the American rock & roll story. But The Band became deadlocked in personality clashes, ultimately going out like a lion with its final 1975 concert. Photos.
