Question
There was a classic rock band named "The Band". I need to know who the lead singer is.  The only song I know they sing something like the subject line.  Actually, the name of the song is "The Waiting"

Answer
   I just read the following news article about Levon Helm and thought perhaps it might interest you.

I can answer general questions about rock era bands, record labels they were on, and names of songs. Often I can tell the name of the record company that released a song, as well as the name of the song, and the year of release based on some of the lyrics. I grew up during the rock era and I am a musician myself, and always read the album and 45 info for production credits as well as lineups. One of the chat rooms I go to is quite amused at my ability to name a song along with it`s year of release and record label. I was also a record collector for years.
