Briefly: Elvis Costello Sits In w/ Levon

Elvis Costello has never hid his affinity for the music of Levon Helm and The Band. Costello – like us – thinks The Band is one of the most important acts in rock history and will tell that to anyone who asks. Last night in Vancouver, Elvis joined Levon’s band for The Band classic Tears of Rage.

This wasn’t the first time Costello has sat in with Helm as Elvis guested on The Weight at City Winery last November and performed The Weight and Tennessee Jed, among others, alongside Levon at a taping for Season Two of Spectacle at the Apollo Theater.  Levon and his current band head to Seattle for a show at the Woodland Park Zoo Ampitheatre tonight.
