 The Band
As a solo artist, Robertson had the most successful musical career, both as a producer and writing movie soundtracks before a highly praised comeback with a Daniel Lanois produced, self-titled solo album in 1987.
The Band comprised J.R. "Robbie" Robertson (guitar), Richard Manuel (piano), Garth Hudson (organ, saxophone), Rick Danko (bass guitar) and Levon Helm (drums, multi-instrumentalist).
This role, and Robertson's resulting claim to the copyright of most of the compositions would become a point of much antipathy between the band members, especially Robertson and Helm.

 Robbie Robertson
The full cost of the album Robertson's 1987 self-titled debut was reportedly $1,000,000 according to 'Rolling Stone' magazine (a figure which Lanois denied) and produced the hits "Showdown At Big Sky", "Broken Arrow" (later to be a hit for Rod Stewart) and "Somewhere Down The Crazy River".
In 1991 Robertson released his not-as-long awaited follow-up 'Storyville' which had a definite zydeco and cajun flavour due mostly to its creation in New Orleans with the assistance of the Neville Brothers and Daniel Lanois once again at the helm.
U2 and Robertson tossed around ideas at the band's recording studio and Lanois recorded long jam session until he got enough momentum out of all parties to edit two songs "Testimony" and "Sweet Fire Of Love".
