Thank you for sharing this. Robbie was a wonderful, creative storyteller and musician.
Rip Jaime Royal Robertson, you will be missed
😊😊 6:21
Levon Helm died a poor broken man because Robbie refused to share any of the royalties with him or any of the other “Band” members after they where done making music together…”The Last Waltz”

You forgot to mention and a lier!.
I love how Robbie mentioned the Elders from the Six Nations; stories are lessons to be learned.
Losing irreplaceable talent like Robbie, Tony Bennett, Gordon Lightfoot, and Tina Turner. I’m glad I’m in this generation to have witnessed this group of so much talent
me too especially Marl Hollis from Talk Talk & Michael Hutchinson from Inxs ...... too many gone so very sad tyx Robbie missing u ✌️ ☮️ b with u ❤❤❤❤.....
@@parallaxcontinuum7898sad she's gone too
Sadly, this is just the beginning, as many of these legends of our youth are in their 70-80s. 🙏♥️
yo
Michael Hutchence, he would have hated having his name mispronounced.@@kathleensalazar5222
So many have passed, but this one really hurts. RIP Robbie. 😢❤✌
Yes it does, really bad.
Robbie Robertson and Randy Meisner in 2 weeks. It hits hard.
Agree. Brilliant man.
Yeah 😢
So true!
Robbie, Levon, Rick, Richard and Garth. An unbelievable amount of talent in one group.
Definitely 💯 ❤
It´s silly really, isn´t it? RIP Robbie.
They were at the demigod level of musicianship and artistry.
Best rhythm & roll band al time. ❤
My favorite moment in "The Last Waltz" is when Neil Young looks over reassuringly and says, "They got it now, Robbie." We've all got it now, Robbie ... R.I.P.
I'm not sure he'll ever be forgiven for Neil Diamond.
@@JustLikeGreta That was an awkward moment in the film, but Robbie had just produced Neil's latest album.
Beautiful
You guys are kidding, right? Dry Your Eyes was one of the great highlights of The LW. There is no diminishment in any of that film.
What does that mean?
My wife walked down the aisle to Broken Arrow. That song in particular will always be special to us. RIP Robbie
There aren’t enough adjectives to praise Robbie’s music and work with The Band. I’ll never forget his influence and the sounds that will last generations. He’ll be sorely missed.
Fly high, good sir. Your music has carried me through centuries.
💗
Ayy,yess indeed . Some of his songs ,music a Lofty blend, a Spiritual Odessey you name it.
What an incredible songwwriter and guitarist. Thank you, Canada!
👍🇨🇦
@@shawnwright5332 Thank's for RUSH too
Joni and Neil, as well.
@@sexilexi1461 Joni and Neil for sure. It's easily a 4-way tie amongst that group.
Earlier this spring, on my annual camping trip out to the Utah desert, I would play “Music for the Native Americans”, and “contact from the underworld of redboy”… That music sounds fantastic, bouncing off the red sandstone canyon walls… You will be sorely missed, RIP Robbie Robertson💔☮️🎸
What a setting.and what a cool notion !
Hii,bit of a heading there. In any case and space,seems you were in the perfect setting to play, listen to Robbies music. Yeah No Doubt .
I just found today he passed. Here on the Navajo Nation, I too listen to his music among the canyons and red rock cliffs. It echoes and Mother Earth absorbs the energy. I don't know how i had not heard he passed. He was an inspiration to us here on America's POW camps the Indian Reservations RIP Robbie
I was honored to have met Robbie while I was working at the CBC in the 70's. What a talent and a very nice man. RIP friend.
Thanks for sharing Wayne 😃
Wow. That's awesome that you met him. Robbie seemed like a great guy. "Seemed" I cannot believe I'm using past tense to describe this guy. It's not right.
u r so damb lucky ❤

Last waltz for Robbie. Gone to the big sky. RIP Robbie - another legendary Canadian musician that leaves us with an amazing musical legacy.
Saw The Band as a 16 year old in Pasadena, CA. in 1969. Had followed them since the year before, totally blown away by "Music From Big Pink. Was a big fan all the way through "The Last Waltz." Loved all of those guys, following them through the years... My being part Apache, Robbie's "Music For Native Americans" has been the soundtrack of my life since retiring to Arizona and painting Native American heroes. Thank you, Robbie, so much for the music and may your spirit fly on the winds of your people! RIP, sir...
Grieved. Robbie's music is in the blood...I can't let go
Pure genius is an understatement.
YOU MUST The music will LIVE ON FOREVER
For me, 53 straight years
Nobody wrote songs with the depth, beauty and timelessness as Robbie Robertson. The Band's catalogue is as good as any band in rock history,
Lyrically he was one of the best
Their authenticity inspired, renewed and changed Clapton forever.
@@parallaxcontinuum7898 Yes, he even wanted to join the group when they were recording in Woodstock. But you probably knew tnat already
After Levons influence in showing him the music of the south I find it quite something how he was able to tap into all that history and what we would now call America as someone from Canada is quite incredible imo
I could listen to Robbie Robertson talk all day long,.....and I could listen to The Band's music all day long too. R. I. P.
A very talented singer, songwriter, guitar player, producer, and band leader. He just finished another film collaboration with Martin Scorcese. Thanks for the memories, Robbie.... RIP
A true Canadian Legend, thank you for the music and memories...RIP Robbie...🙏
What an icon. You can tell you're listening to great music, when it's not flashy, it's deeper and soulful. I remember years ago listening to Take Your Partner By The Hand over and over again. Even though it was contemporary at the time, it was soulful. That was Robbie Robertson. RIP
I think Robbie's soulful writing comes from his background. His mother was Mohawk, his father Jewish, who died before Robbie was born. His mother took him to the Six Nations reserver several times a year, there he listened to the elders telling stories and playing music. Robbie stepdad became very physically abusive to Robbie when Robbie was a teenager, and to his mother as well. She divorced him when it got to be too much. She was very supportive of Robbie and his dreams, his stepfather was not.
Robbie you're in the storyteller top 10. Always and forever. RIP Robbie
Thank you for all the music. You poured out your heart and soul and made the world a better place. Rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Robbie Robertson. Your music has been a mainstay in my life - and will continue to be💔☮️🎸
I have loved the Band since I was 24 in 1969 living in New York City. I heard "Up on Cripple CreeK", still one of my favorite Band songs, also The Weight and others, but those 2 stand out. Sorry, to hear about Robbie's passing. I'm almost finished with his book Testimony.
Robbie was not only a great musician and songwriter, he was an amazing human being. See you in the next life Robbie. It's gonna be even better.
The greatest American rock band was 4/5th Canadian!!!!!......R.I.P. Robbie
I loved his work with the band but also loved his solo stuff.Testimony and Somewhere down the crazy river are my favorites.R.I.P. Mr.Robertson you will be dearly missed.
somewhere down the lazy River is so damb fantastic! RIP 🙏 legends r leaving us.... sad 😔
"The Weight" is the greatest rock Era song written and Bob didn't write it! RIP Robbie!
The heart is very heavy with sorrow at the passing of one of the very best singer/songwriter/musicians of my lifetime. Thanks, Robbie. All manifestations of your music touched me profoundly and gave me a deeper appreciation of creativity that stood above and beyond so much of the rest. The band will play on here, my friend, while wishing you peace and above all, interesting journeying ahead.
Rest in Peace Robbie. I saw you in concert, I played in cover bands that played The Band's music and I have been listening to "The Band's" album since the beginning. You will be truly missed and your life will always be in my memories. You were one of a kind that will never be repeated. I know you are still playing up there with the greats. I hope to see you on the other side.
Soar high and free, Beautiful Soul, Gifted Spirit. Thank you for so much Soul shared! You left us so much tremendous music and memories. Blessed Graduation with honors and so many celebrating and treasuring you... across and beyond time. I trust your journey back home to the stars. Adore every moment, and feel so much love for you, from so many of us!
From Toronto I have winter in my blood. The Band found a room in my heart and moved in. Robbie made soul music.
😊
A part of my life died. His music will be with me for eternity. RIP. 😢
That’s the only way I can explain the music of the Band ever since my late dad would babysit me at night dipping my dummy in beer listening to the big pink to what became a soundtrack of my life
Boy, RIP Robbie. I never heard anything bad about this man. He wasn't a drinker, nor did he use drugs. Considering he was in the business all those years, he belonged to a club with very few members in it... Thank You For Posting The Video.
And Thank You Robbie For All The Great Music You Shared With Us Over The Years...
Read his book "Testimony", Robbie by his own admission did plenty of drugs. However, he stayed away from heroin, unlike Richard, Rick and Levon. He was also more ambitious than the other Band members, with Robbie the music always came first.There is plenty of hate on the internet of Robbie, mostly over songwriting credits, and also his ego. First of all I'm a HUGE fan of The Band, and especially Robbie, although Rick is a close second. Most of the hate comes from fans of Levon, who read his book, where he turned very critical and bitter towards Robbie. I side with Robbie after reading several and listening to several sources. I do believe Robbie has more fans than detractors.
What a great musician. Such a humble human being. Rest well 💜
Thank you for posting this tribute.
🎉You always were Unbound Robbie. The Good Red Road lives forever. Thank you for everything.
Robbie is in many ways a symbol of reconciliation. A proud Canadian who embraced both his indigenous & Jewish heritage, didn't engage in verbal battles over Levon Helm bashing him for decades, experimented with just about every North American music including Christmas music, and worked with Catholic filmaker Martin Scoresese for decades.
"Christmas Must Be Tonight" is my favorite Christmas song. Beautiful.
I think the experience with an abusive stepfather, especially when he had been drinking made Robbie weary of all the drugs and alcohol consumed by Levon, Richard and Rick. Not that Robbie didn't do drugs he did, he is very open about it in his book, music always came first with Robbie. I love all The Band members, perhaps Rick the most. Fact is Robbie held things together and became the caretaker when the other 3 was too stoned to do much. As for his stepfather being abusive to Robbie's mother and Robbie, in his book he also tells the story how his stepfather beat Robbie's dog over some minor thing, Robbie never forgave him for that.
So grateful to have had the opportunity to hear The Band in the early 70's. Robbie's music has been inspirational for me & so many others throughout the many decades. Thank you for the wonderful memories, Robbie. Your amazing music & stories will live on forever.
You were one of the best storytellers, Robbie. Rest your soul in peace. 🕊☮️
R.I.P. Robbie, thank you for your talents and contributions to modern culture.
Robbie was an icon - and the Band was simply one of the best groups ever - just listen to Rock of Ages and you'll know what I mean. Very saddened by his passing.
Robbie taught me how to walk the Red Road back in the 90ies. He became a part of my existence.
Now, a part of my existence is gone.
With a breath of kindness, I blow your Spirit to be free..
Rock on, Robbie Robertson! Thank you for the music!😎🎸
acadian driftwood what a classic 3 lead singers
He made life better that's for sure may you Robbie be blessed on your journey home and be nice to Levon we love brother

Rest in peace Robbie, thanks for your gift of music 😢💔🙏🏻
First Lightfoot now Robertson. Canada has lost 2 musical luminaries in close chronological proximity. I adore Robbie Robertson! Have for many decades. Rest in power, dear man.
And just a few years ago Leonard Cohen - we have lost the voices that I grew up with. 😢
@@j.davidsemple6988 Indeed. Never forgotten.
The Hawk and John Till (ex Hawk Janis Joplin guitarist) all within months as I recall.
Saw the Band many times back in the day. My friends and I tried never to miss them when they were performing in NY. Their music and performance was always wonderful. I feel so sad about Robbie's passing. A personal loss for me and I'm sure all my old friends as well. RIP Robbie. You were one of the all time greats.
he was a grand soul....good night sweet prince!
Such a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing your stories with us, Robbie. R.I.P.
A Beautiful Man who Loved abundance of Life, RIP, Journey on in the Spirit World, you will be Forevermore in the hearts of us all.
A'ho!
What a song writer ✍️
RIP ❤ Robbie 😢
My Band played "The Weight" many times in the 1970's and 1980's. Every time it was a beautiful unique experience. I absolutely loved this Man. Rest-In-Peace Robbie Robertson. Well done!
🎶Singing for the angels now🎶Soo many bright stars in Heaven✨✨🎶✨✨

R. I. P. Robbie soar with the 🦅 now & all your family ancestors and friends! Thanks for what you did for Us 😊🇨🇦🪶💖✨💫
RIP Robbie, thank you. Your music will live on, along with your infectious engagement with the music and other musicians 🎸
I am deeply saddened. I loved Robbie's work with The Band. When a musician dies, a part of every musician dies a little. We're all connected through the music.
💯💯💯💯💯 Music is the universal language. No matter where a person is from, Poland, Canada, Ireland, Germany, America, music connects us. Praise GOD that it does. 🙏❤️❤️🙏
A toast is coming for sure for Robbie. The Band is one of those bands in the 60s and 70s that were influential in shaping the history of modern music. The music that the younglings admire today.
O ya TY Robbie for your inspiration and dedication and there is a place people go that are very welcome to folks like these. RIP Robbie.
Oh god. What a genius he was. My mom told me the same thing when I was 18. I am thankful the man I thought he was wasn’t.
Such a true talent & amazing song writer & story teller.Robbie Robertson was able to put his personality & life’s experiences into to his brilliant works.A man who moved many people & stayed true to himself. R I P a dear friend.
Thank You for sharing this Robbie. RIP😇😂😭🤘🙏💋💜💔
Oh my.
He leaves a hole in the world. Only the music can fill it.
RIP Robbie Robertson 💔🎸
What a humble guy, never taking the 'show', accolades to a true virtuoso of a true musician/human being
Hope you meet your mates again wherever you are R.I.P Robbie.

RIP Robbie. You were an amazing artist, from an amazing background of two rich and very different cultural heritages. You certainly had a lot to draw from. You lived a full life, but I hate that you're not in the world any more.
