Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following up two of the most universally acclaimed albums in rock history, The Band adopted a slightly darker, remarkably polished, and highly eclectic studio sound. 'Stage Fright' balances wonderfully melodic, intensely passionate roots rock and blue-eyed soul with deeply bittersweet, beautifully pastoral reflections on the anxieties of fame and American history.
