Robbie was so incredibly handsome during his days in The Band.

[@sarahsosa729]

Bobbie was just an Angel sent to us for his music. What a beautiful soul! RIP MY BROTHER! 🙏

[@peterzang]

Special stuff. Having interviewed Robbie I can tell you he’s always even kind and cool like this. What can you say? He’s a Canadian

[@vedder10]

Always been a fan of Robbie Robertson. He is such a fantastic storyteller and it’s great to see his son.

[@johnnytoobad7785]

A rock musician who can carry on a normal conversation and write a (great) book. What a concept. Robbie is a living legend.

[@glenkepic3208]

Great! Wiped away a tear or two? Yep. Rest In Peace, Robbie Robertson.

[@janehop]

I just read Robbie Robertson's book "Testimony" loved it. And now that I'm done, missing reading it.

[@hannejeppesen1809]

I was almost done with the book when the news came that Robbie passed away. I have loved The Band since I first heard Up on Cripple Creek, new the band members, especially Robbie and Levon. However, I have now gotten much more into the differently personality. I certainly have a soft spot for Robbie and RIck Danko. Both good looking, sexy and soulful. Miss them.

[@colinwilliams553]

LOVE the interaction between father and son. Very precious.

[@davidhelling5968]

That was realy sweet...

[@thejoyofthemusicinmylife7897]

Cool Dad, Great Son

[@sharonedwards6010]

I watched his Documentary, Once Were Brothers yesterday. I had no idea he wrote those iconic songs. He should be inducted into the singer/songwriters hall of fame. I don't think he cares about that.

[@kevinfreer6775]

Wished i lived on his block, i would have watched Robbie jamming w/a garage band !!!

[@kevinvilmont6061]

That was nice.❤😊

[@chestermcgillicuddy4368]

[@wmpopper]

Forever Real Man.

[@keithbirdsong1036]

Very cool 😎

[@fivewattworld]

Nice!

[@joannehack7588]

cool

[@dreamwell2020]

In 1965, Robertson had certainly heard of Dylan, but knew little of his work. Robbie and Bob, though, had been working in parallel, absorbing music originated deep inside America. Both, in retrospect, were getting ready to distill that gumbo into what is now known, thanks to the sanctuary provided by the ranch house they dubbed Big Pink, as Americana music.

[@rocknasr896]

We need a video of how you paint your guitar in factory

[@user-bz6ux5ze4l]

Already did 1:29

Robert talks with a young Paul Giamatti

[@Stobert]

what is he doing here? strat guy

[@sadhvacman7238]

Yeah. He used to play a 335... well an epiphone on a small portion of their early work and he’s used the double neck he talked about here. But you’re right he’s really a tele guy.
