The Band - Garth Hudson Part 3

In this exclusive interview Garth Hudson shares his memories of working with Bob Dylan in the basement of a house in Woodstock, and the legendary recordings that became known as 'The Basement Tapes'. This is the first interview that Garth has granted for many years.

Garth Hudson is a Canadian multi-instrumentalist. As the organist, keyboardist and saxophonist for Canadian-American rock group The Band, he was a principal architect of the group's unique sound. Hudson has been called "the most brilliant organist in the rock world" by Time Magazine and "the first true rock keyboard virtuoso" by Keyboard Magazine.
A master of the Lowrey organ, Hudson's orchestral tone sense and style anticipated many of the sonic advances of the polyphonic synthesizer. His other primary instruments are piano, electronic keyboards, tenor saxophone, soprano saxophone and accordion. He has been a much-in-demand and respected session musician, performing with dozens of artists and earning the accolades of many including Elton John, who has cited him as an early influence. Garth recorded the basement sessions in Woodstock with Bob Dylan.
