Robbie Robertson talks on The House of Blues Radio Hour about heading into Helena, Arkansas with bandmate Levon Helm to meet and spend time with Sonny Boy Williamson. In telling the story, Robertson uses language (in context) that may be offensive to some.
No wonder Danko was shaking his head in The Last Waltz ! He left out the best part of the story.

THAT was cool! I'd never heard that much on that story before! I'd always heard the "short" version; finding him, playing, the blood bucket, and then his death a short time later. Never the part about the food joint and the redneck cops. Thanks for posting and thanks Robbie for sharing!
