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 henomenon." 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.
