Levon and The Band bandmate Robbie Robertson had a falling out later in life after Robbie maintained full songwriting credit for most of their most popular songs. Levon felt the songs were collaborative works and songwriting should have been shared. By receiving full credit, Robbie to this day receives the lion's share of The Band's royalties.
