The Life Of Rick Danko

Rick Danko was a Canadian musician born on December 29 1943 in Blaney Ontario Rick played bass guitar for the band Rick Danko dropped out of school to pursue music full time at the age of 14. Since 1965 he and his comrades in the band then called the hawks. As lead vocalist, bassist, and acoustic guitar player for The Band, and as a solo craftsman, his commitments have been significant. Hailing from Green's Corners, almost a mile and a half from the minor provincial town of Simcoe, Ontario, Rick was born into a melodic family. Both of his guardians and his three brothers played musical instruments and or sang, and music was a way of life for him from the start. He tuned in to Hank Williams and Sam Cooke as a little child and was "prepared to go to Nashville" by the age of seven. With his most seasoned brother, Maurice ("Junior"), Rick sang and performed at family get-togethers and made his open big appearance on four-string tenor banjo sometime ago a group of his first-grade classmates in 1960, when he was 17, he joined rockabilly vocalist Ronnie Hawkins’ bunch, The Hawks, at first as a rhythm guitarist. He before long moved to bass, learning his instrument "one string at a time," and, with the assistance of the Hawks’ boogie-woogie piano player (and afterward, piano player for the 1980s incarnation of The Band) Stan Szelest, whose left-hand procedures he memorized and adjusted to his bass playing, started creating his trademark percussive but sliding fashion. under Ronnie Hawkins’ tutelage, Rick started a three-year residency of continuous gigging and thorough practices that individual Band-mate Richard Manuel once compared to "boot camp." By the time he was 20, he was a prepared professional, having gone through most of his high school a long time "playing in bars merely were assumed to be 21 to play in."
