The Band were an album band not a singles band. They did have ten Hot 100 singles in their career from 1968-75 2 of which made the Top 40. Their most successful single was “Up On Cripple Creek” #25 in 1969. “Rag Mama Rag” comes from their second album- The Band [ or The Brown Album} which I would rank as one of my favorite albums ever- certainly on my Mt. Rushmore of albums.
