1995 - Little Sammy Davis (not the Rat Pack one) started his blues career in the late 1940s but this was his first album. At the end of his life, he was playing with Levon Helm quite a bit. youtu.be/lBX4B_kt-DA?...

Levon Helm. Världens bästa trummis OCH sångare. Levon, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel. Om du hade en av de sångarna i ditt band skulle du vinna över alla andra. The Band? De hade alla tre. Och Robbie Robertsons låtar och gitarr.

Kody Blois on the significance of Carney's upcoming China trip: "It's been nine years since a PM has been to China. It had been eight years since there had been a leader-to-leader meeting... This trip next week is a continuation of that turning point in the relationship."

After the World Trade Center was attacked (just four miles from Trump Tower), more than 40,000 Canadians in uniform fought alongside their U.S. allies in Afghanistan. More than 2,000 Canadians were wounded. These 158 didn't make it home. And now this guy is giving lectures on gratitude.
