The Last Waltz with Tyrell Lisson of The Band: A History

11/22/22 • 90 min

You may have heard of today's documentary, The Last Waltz, featuring The Band. The documentary was directed by Martin Scorsese and released in 1978.

For this episode we are joined by Very Special Guest Tyrell Lisson of the podcast The Band: A History. Tyrell is the official (unofficial) world's expert on The Band and he has lots of insight to share with us.

So - does The Last Waltz deserve its place as possibly the most highly rated rock doc of all time? How do the various superstar guests (Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, our girl Mavis Staples, etc.) rank? Does Eric Clapton suck? And what about the controversial appearance by The Jewish Elvis, Neil Diamond?

All this and much more on today's Thanksgiving episode of Rock Docs.
