The music of Robbie Robertson goes with pretty much anything, a team of researchers announced on Wednesday.
“Whether it’s riding a horse across a windswept plain or walking pensively down a city street, there’s no situation that Robbie Robertson’s music isn’t a perfect soundtrack for,” said lead researcher Michael Redhorse, a professor at the First Nations University of Canada.
“I could be doing something as mundane as fixing myself some coffee and I crank Unbound from Robertson’s Contact from the Underworld of Redboy and it’s instantly mystical and profoundly cool.”
For six years, the researchers said that they played Robertson’s albums, which include albums Showdown at Big Sky and Music for the Native Americans, while people did everything from catch fish to carve totem poles and each time say that the music was a perfect accompaniment.
