Thanks,
Dale

Rhino Records, United Artists, and MGM Home Entertainment have teamed for a
variety of projects to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the final concert
by the original incarnation of the Band, later released as an album and a
film under the name "The Last Waltz." United Artists is re-releasing the
Martin Scorsese-directed film for a limited theatrical run beginning April
5, while Rhino will issue a four-CD boxed set version of the album on April
16. A special edition DVD from MGM arrives May 7.
The five-hour show, held on Thanksgiving Day at the Winterland Theatre in
San Francisco, found the Band's Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko,
Garth Hudson, and Richard Manuel backed by a dazzling array of guests,
including Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Joni Mitchell, Muddy Waters,
Emmylou Harris, and Van Morrison. The original 30-track album documenting
the show was released by Warner Bros. in 1978.
The new boxed set, supervised and remastered by Robertson, tacks on 24 more
tracks from the concert and rehearsals. Among them are Band performances
with Mitchell, Clapton, Dylan, and Young; Robertson's demo for "The Last
Waltz" theme; two previously unreleased jams; and more. Robertson also wrote
the introduction for the 80-page CD booklet, which features rare photos and
memorabilia.
Beyond digital transfers and sound mixes, MGM's special-edition DVD sports a
featurette with interviews of Robertson and Scorsese, plus the latter's
original storyboards. A previously unseen "jam footage" series features the
Band with such guests as Young, Clapton, Starr, Stephen Stills, Ron Wood,
and Dr. John. Robertson and Scorsese also offer a shot-by-shot commentary
track, while Helm, Hudson, and various other participating musicians and
crew members supply a second commentary of their own.

laugh... Or should I say, made me _Glad All Over_ ;o)

Band Celebrates "Waltz"'s 25th
March 8, 8 p.m. ET,
RollingStone.com
The Band's farewell concert, The
Last Waltz, will be
released as a four-CD box set on
April 16th, to coincide
with the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the landmark
concert and subsequent Martin
Scorsese-directed film. The
box set, which was remixed by
Band songwriter/guitarist
Robbie Robertson, includes the
thirty songs from the original
soundtrack, as well as
twenty-four unreleased performances,
including the Band's rehearsals
with Van Morrison and Dr.
John.
The release is part of a
celebration that will also include a short
theatrical run for the film,
starting on April 5th in San
Francisco, where the concert
originally took place. The Last
Waltz will open in New York City
on April 10th, Los Angeles on
April 12th, and Boston, Chicago,
Philadelphia, San Diego,
Seattle, Washington and Toronto
on April 19th. Robertson
oversaw the film's reissue,
which has been digitally remixed
and remastered in 5.1 stereo
surround sound. A premiere will
also be held at New York's
landmark Ziegfeld Theater on April
10th; the theater was the first
to show the movie twenty-five
years ago.
On May 7th, MGM Home
Entertainment will release a special
edition DVD of the film,
featuring new interviews with Scorsese
and Robertson. Also included
will be some previously
unreleased footage including
performances by the Band, Eric
Clapton, Stephen Stills, Neil
Young, Ron Wood, Ringo Starr, Dr.
John and Paul Butterfield. Two
full-length running
commentaries are also on the
DVD: Robertson and Scorsese
provide a shot-by-shot audio
commentary on the film, and
the other surviving Band
members, Garth Hudson and Levon
Helm, discuss the songs and the
concert.
"What's really interesting is to
look back and see what a
historic event and extraordinary
musical collaboration it was,"
Robertson told Rolling Stone
last year. "The fact that it
actually happened is a
phenomenon."
Robertson will kick off the
anniversary festivities next week at
the South by Southwest Music
Conference in Austin. In
addition to serving as the
conference's keynote speaker, he
will preview material from the
DVD and the box set.
