On September 25th a new documentary is being released about Bob Dylan and his time with The Hawks (who would later become The Band). From MVD:
In 1966 Bob Dylan began his first electric world tour. It was a landmark moment, both for Dylan and for the history of rock music, and it bitterly divided his audience. Backing Dylan on stage was an obscure group of Canadian musicians collectively known as The Hawks. After a lengthy convalescence in New York’s Catskill Mountains; when both parties re-emerged, Dylan had undergone an artistic transformation that sent ripples across American music and The Hawks had become simply ‘The Band’, one of the most important recording groups of their generation. This is the story of their relationship.
