Held on Thanksgiving Day in November 1976 at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom, The Last Waltz was The Band's farewell show and went down in history as a cult classic concert thanks to its cinematic immortalization by Martin Scorsese and special guest performers including Eric Clapton, Dr. John, Joanie Mitchell, Muddy Waters, Neil Young, Van Morrison, and Ringo Starr, amongst others.

In 2009, Billboard Magazine named Boney James the Jazz Musician of the Decade and the tremendously talented saxophonist certainly lives up to that moniker. While seen as a forerunner of the smooth jazz movement, Boney's style of playing combines pop and RnB and his style is often seen as grittier and more textured than the easy-listening genre.
