I saw The Last Waltz in the theater in ‘78 right after it was released. Very eye-opening for a 14-year old kid who was mostly listening to Zep and Stones at the time. Went out and bought the Band’s “The Brown Album” (their second release) shortly thereafter. It’s still in my top 5 all time records.
