Joe Forno Jr. writes about the history of Woodstock, where he was born and raised, and how the town embraced musicians as it had artists in the early years of its art colony.Like his father, Joe became close to the members of The Band and managed the group from 1986 through 1994. The reader learns of the tragedies and triumphs of that time, from the deaths of Manuel and Stan Szelest, who replaced him, to the release of Jericho, the first new music by The Band since The Last Waltz. It includes the story of the fire that destroyed Levon Helms barn studio and home, and the subsequent rebuilding. The book traces The Bands performances at the \"30th Anniversary Bob Dylan Concert\" and at the \"Blue Jeans Bash,\" at the Clinton presidential inauguration in 1993. Levons Man also tells the story of the 1994 induction of The Band into the Rock \u0026amp; Roll Hall of Fame and their performance at \"Woodstock 94,\" the 25th anniversary of the \"Woodstock Festival.\" This is an unforgettable saga of friendship, loyalty, and celebration of American music and culture at a crossroads.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52164527849760,"sku":"NEWB09BM8G74B","price":22.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61DJgZjcOXL.jpg?v=1786220723","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/levons-man-woodstock-the-death-of-richard-manuel-and-my-decade-managing-the-band-b09bm8g74b","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
