Levon Helm-thank you for the great music

Back in 1987, I had the honor of seeing and photographing Levon Helm for the first time at the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ. The music was amazing, and near the end of the evening, Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa joined him for a few songs, helping to make the night even more memorable.
I heard yesterday that Levon is in the last battle for his fight against battle.
Thank you, Mr Helm, for bring so much enjoyment to so many with your music.
