Amp on Rock of Ages (The Band live album, not the movie)
Hi everyone. I'm wondering if anybody knows what amp Robbie used at the Academy of Music shows for The Band's Rock of Ages album. I've searched around a bunch online and can't find an answer. Saw one photo of Levon playing mandolin and in the background you can see a Twin (silverface?). I just like the smooth and punchy tone. Thanks!

I, too, love the tone that Robbie got on that live album. The amp in that photo is a SF Twin, but I think that was Levon's. I think that Robbie's amp was on tilt-back legs between the floor tom and the horizontal 8x10" SVT bass cab in front of the organ. You can see the top of it behind Robbie's legs in this photo that also shows that Twin up front.
