not just any band... THE BAND!

In the two days we had the class this week, we listened to a band that I've never heard of or listened to before. When I heard the music from this band, both my focus and attention were completely sealed with the music and I was in awe. The music group that I was so amazed with is called The Band, composed of five members originally. The Band was active from 1964 to 1977 and again from 1983 to 1999. I'm not sure if it was the style of their music or the sound of their voices that I fell for but one thing I know for sure is that their songs defiantly caught my attention. The three songs I liked the most that we've listened to so far are The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, Up On Cripple Creek and The Weight. All three of these songs in my eyes are incredible and are now on my Spotify play list ;). In my class we listen to a variety of music and artists; some I like and some I don't care for. However, this band is one I can stand and perfectly represents my definition of great music.
