i agree that stage fright is under rated. I also would add it to "the Band" and "Big Pink".

Stage Fright, The Band and Music from Big Pink are really great albums.

The Band did them all amazingly.

I'm surprised how little attention Stage Fright has been given, its got some excellent songs on there.

I don't think Levon Helm would be traumatized by being lumped in with Canadians...
The Band are epic - grossly overlooked in the reputation of the 60s and 70s. They trump CSN and the Byrds, easily. Top playing, top songwriting, top melody.

Well done, Robbie & co.

My favorite band.

They are not all canadians. Levon Helm is from the US, so nationality should be mixed.
