First 2 songs carry the album. The rest are mediocre

The Band by The Band
Jan 10 2026

The Band was a little before my time and even back then I never understood why they were considered great. I feel if Martin Scorsese directs a film about your farewell concert, then your music must be great. After listening to it in full I hear the blues, folk, rock influences but it's still just meh to me. They sound a lot like Grateful Dead, which I would much rather listen to.
