Levon Helm is old, in fact he'll be 68 this year. He's a year older than Bob Dylan, but he still has his voice apparently. This is made even more impressive by the fact that a few years ago Helm hardly had a voice after going through treatment for throat cancer. I recently bought his Grammy winning album Dirt Farmer, which came out last year. The songs are all really good Americana-ish folk type songs like you'd expect from Levon Helm. Helm is helped by Dylan's old guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Larry Campbell and his daughter Amy, among others. Anyway, the record is really good. Just hope that when you're old you still have a strong singing voice.Also, buy records like Dirt Farmer by Levon Helm.
