520    He sang the anthems of a generation: "The Weight," "Up on 
       Cripple Creek," and "Life Is a Carnival." Levon Helm's 
       story--told here through sweeping research and interviews 
       with close friends and fellow musicians--is the rollicking
       story of American popular music itself. In the Arkansas 
       Delta, a young Levon witnessed "blues, country, and gospel
       hit in a head-on collision," as he put it. The result was 
       rock 'n' roll. As a teenager, he joined the raucous Ronnie
       Hawkins and the Hawks, then helped merge a hard-driving 
       electric sound with Bob Dylan's folk roots, and 
       revolutionized American rock with the Band. Helm not only 
       provided perfect "in the pocket" rhythm and unforgettable 
       vocals, he was the Band's soul. Levon traces a rebellious 
       life on the road, from being booed with Bob Dylan to the 
       creative cauldron of Big Pink, the Woodstock Festival, 
       world tours, The Last Waltz, and beyond with the man Dylan
       called "one of the last true great spirits of my or any 
       other generation."
