Jubilation is the tenth and final
On only one track, "If I Should Fail", do all six group members appear. Helm and Danko are missing from one track each, guitarist Jim Weider is missing from two. Richard Bell is replaced by producer/engineer Aaron Hurwitz on piano and keyboards for much of the album (Bell appears on just three tracks). Hudson and drummer-percussionist Randy Ciarlante are on every track. As with the prior two albums, numerous guest musicians appear on the album as well.
A limited pressing of the album was released in September 1998 on purple marble vinyl exclusively through the now-defunct site In the Studio.[1][2] The album cover is by Illinois folk artist George Colin.[3]
This is the only album released by the Band to include no contributions from vocalist-pianist Richard Manuel, who died in 1986. In an August 1998 web interview, the group revealed they were already working on a follow-up that has not been released.[4] When Rick Danko died the following year, it was the factual end of The Band.
