55:03 I don’t want to
59:40 chest fever ( love ricks glasses)
I mostly did this to make it easier for me but hopefully I got the times right for everyone if anyone sees this. Edit: I just noticed this. It looks like levon’s playing his left drumstick upside down on a lot of songs. I’ve never seen him do that before has anyone else? Or is it a double sided one?
Re the instrument that makes the twang in Stand Up - I think it's Garth playing a clavinet setting on his keyboard through some other effect that adds a bit of a jaws harp sound to it. He used the same effect on the recording of Up On Cripple Creek I think.
@@asleepatthereel3114 thanks. I thought it was a different instrument. One u have in ur mouth or something like that but that could be something completely different. Thanks
Holding the stick with the butt end (thicker end) is fairly common. It adds more weight to the stick; he may have done it to achieve a louder sound, or wanted a heavier feel in his hand, or both
@@brendanhodge7713having more weight in the stick makes it bounce better! That's why you want heavier sticks (if you do) - as far as I know.
Yeah Levon has always played with butt end of his left stick when he uses traditional grip
Levon is one the best full stack musicians to ever live. Love his vocals so much. So sad I never saw them live. I will listen to The Band for the rest of my live, hopefully another 50 years or so.
If you haven't heard the Starry Night solo show with Rick and Levon search for it because it is pure gold.
Agreed 100%. The band regardless of the eras for them I can listen to forever too
❤️

Had the pleasure of playing in a Toronto band with keyboard man Rick Bell back in 1965-66. Rick passed away too early in his life. I will always have good memories of Rick, his mom & sister. Rick's playing ability always made the music live. John Cairns
Are you anything to Malachy Cairns sax player...estate agent from Misisauga?
❤️🇸🇪
Levon is working real hard! R.I.P Brother!
Saw em around this time at the Philadelphia folk festival......they were great ......who needs Robbie? Jim Weider was every bit as good
I love the Band and Levon was the heart and soul of The Band.
Amen to that❤️
RIP Rick, Richard, Levon, you are missed
The greatest band of all times!!!
And the inspiration and influence of many others.
Saw them Wembley UK ...support to CSN!!
Hardly. They are amazing but not the best.
@@OutOnTheTiles Well, that's a matter of opinion!!! And in my humble opinion... They were the best of their time!!! I sure hope you are not comparing to the Stones!!!! Iconic, yes but the music and the lyrics belong to The Band Everytime!!! Just opinions, and that is mine!!!!
@@beckyfinch6628 Well I always say The Band was the greatest band and The Rolling Stones are for sure THE GREATEST ROCK & ROLL BAND ever!
@@def717 You need to figure yourself out dude!!! Who is it? The Band or the Stones?!!! It's The Band Everytime for me!!! No comparison!!! Never a big Stones fan!!! They just ok!!!..
Keep it going!...L.Helm god rest his soul
Unlike many other bands, they kept the playing sharp as they got older. No slowing tempo down or doing anything easier way. Great!

Oskarileikos - Don't kid yourself. I'm certainly glad that these guys continued to play with each other...but they certainly had a huge supporting cast at this stage of their careers. Rather than slowing the tempo, they hired a bunch of other musicians to help fill the sound and carry the load.
@@bigjer881 well, Robbie quit so they needed Jim to play guitar, and Richard died, so they hired Rick Bell for piano and Randy Ciarlante to play drums to replace Richard. And doubling the drummers isn't really making it easier.
Yup completely agree
Only better with age like every thing
Wikipedia says Danko died from “heart failure”...he was only 55! Was it drug related? Or a heart attack? Gone too soon. Sadly, he doesn’t look good here. Overweight and a weak voice. Levon was kicking ass.
Kind of reminds me of Elvis towards the end. Love Rick, breaks my heart
Actually all 5 members played together one last time in 1978 when Levon, Richard, Robbie and Garth joined Rick during a Rick Danko Band performance at The Roxy on March 1st. They played three tunes together : Stage Fright, Shape I'm In & The Weight. This was truly the last time all 5 played on stage together
True
Why Robbie left? He wrote most of the songs. We see all three others left here. Richard already R.I.P. at that time.
@TXPHILLYPHAN Hello !! and thanks so much for uploading this show !! I'm sorry to bug and I know its been years but I'll go on a limb and ask anyway if you remember where you got this transfer from by slim chance? If it's a circulated dvd I would love to find it, but this looks like it could be the master or a re-broadcast...
nonetheless thank you again for this upload
Danko! Nuff said....
THE TRUST BAND OF BOB DYLAN...… EXCELLENT MUSICIANS ¡¡¡¡
Compared to the other voices in The Band, Robbie couldn't sing and in many instances his mic was turned off for good reason.
hate on robertson all you want, but they lost their best guitarist and especially, songwriter...
Sadly Rick sounded like he was struggling also.
the band still sounds amazing without robbie, whats robbie without the band
@@michaeldonovan4793 He wasn't nearly their best guitarist (whoever's in this video is way more solid than Robbie, and the guy who was in Levon's band in the last few years of his life was spectacular), he's just the one who demanded endless overdubs to cover all his mistakes. He's an ok guitarist but let's not confuse his great songwriting with his good-enough guitar playing.
@@milesb72 I'm listening to 'Stage Fright' right now and.... what the hell are you talking about? He doesn't sound super inspired but his voice is solid, especially compared to Robbie who can't even hit the notes to save his life. Robbie's performance on Saturday Night Live in like 1990 was HORRIBLE because of his shitty voice, one of the worst I've ever heard attempting to sing lead on a mainstream release. Great songwriter, ok guitarist, awful singer.
Great camera work. Finally we get to see some of Garth playin' live.
Kills me how Garth and Richard never got the camera time they deserved. It's a shame the other guys didn't sort of make it mandatory that they had more equal time. They had to be aware of it. Both of them were integral parts of the band. Not to mention Garth was fun to watch, a it of a character
What a BAND this was, Levon was a really great singer/drummer all the way, RIP brother
I saw more of Garth here than everything else on TH-cam combined. Actually I could add in a few concerts too. Levon great as usual. Rick, you just have to love him.
as it should be
Wow thank you so much what a great watch !
Wow, Levon Helm has turned into Bob Dylan, and not in a good way.
should have 2 billion hits just to see Annie, Levon and the most beautiful voice in rock and roll history-Ricko.RIP guys and and to an age where music moved people a bit further.Thanks for the upload!
Garth is 1 multitalented musician too. The Band were just ONE awesome group.
One of the best bands ever!!
Hats off The Band.....music,voices,the mighty Garth......great show......☮️🔛🌎➕🎶
🙏❤️
Bad camera footage, when Danko is singing, Makes No Difference. Cameras should never venture off of him, especially at the beginning of the song!
Damn this is good
🌸❤️
What a show! Levon, Garth, Rick, Jim, Richard, and Randy. Wish I had been there.
I was the lucky guy...I was there! It was a fantastic show! You see they all at right side of the stage? They really wanna stay together...only great!
Me too
Wow showing you're age bro wish I was there
Remedy to Ophelia to It Makes No Difference. I'm in heaven listening to this.
Metoo🙂❤️
Never seen this before fabulous
God..they are good!!❤️❤️❤️
Great quality, interesting set, love it, thanks!
Jesus when are we going to know that these people are not here for ever RIP Levon helm xxx
stupendous ... PS: anybody may explain why Levon was wearing the glove ?
9 mins in....Rick, Garth and Levon hooking up again...they were something....RIP Levon and Rick, Long Live Garth
Let's hear it for The Band!!!!
Yup hooray the best yet or ever
👋👋👋👋☝️!!!!!!
the best piano solo i ever heard right at the start! what a wicked band even got two drummers doing harmonies...
Most famous titles were written by Robbie Robertson. Why he's not with his best buddies here? The guitarist is a great replacement though. Anyway great show.
👍
That's what I call a band. What a performance first class.🎼🎼🎼🎼
THE BAND
I saw them as the Hawks backing Dylan on the infamous electric tour
Very Cool!!! Long live the Band!!!
Hats off!❤️
I love the band ... Rick danko is one of the greatest bass players ever. He reminds me of my late brother also !
My Boy 👍
And an excellent singer - “Makes No Difference” in particular
This is a damn good performance, and it's sad to see all the comments here by people who apparently don't know The Band as well as they thought they did. Robbie is unnecessary. Rick's voice sounds really good here, but he's singing more delicately than he did when he was a cocaine-fueled beast in the '70s and a lot of people are talking like he sounded bad when he actually sounded a lot better than many, many other performances from their classic era.
Robbie was never unnecessary you fool!!!! He was the brains behind it all!!! You need to do your homework before you take your test!!!!!!! Just stop commenting on what you do not know!!! I KNOW THE BAND!!!
@@beckyfinch6628 Robbie was necessary for song writing not for the actual “sound”. The guitar player that is with them here is way more solid.
@@cb8375 I will stand with the original BAND!!! It's what I lived on and what I love now and always!!! If nothing else... I am dedicated!!! If you watch The Last Waltz and watch Robbie slay it on IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE, I love it,!!!! That's my favorite BAND song... That and Stagefright !!! Danko has both vocals,!!! Love Levon too though!!! His vocals are second to none!!! I just love it all... If you havn't seen the tribute.. " Love for Levon" find it and watch it!!! Not as good as The Last Waltz but it's damn good!!!!
❤️
Levon was the heart of the band
Qué buenos... y qué grabación tan buena! ¡Gracias por la joya! I ❤The Band!
Wish I could have seen them live. What a great show and a beautiful stage area. One of the greatest bands in music. Thanks for all the music guys.
Followed them in late 90’s after hearing Don Imus talk about them. Saw them live in PA -what a show !
Long live The Band!!!!❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
❤️🇸🇪
@@larsgsanger3105 have a great day 👍🍺🍺🍺🎸🍺🎶🎵
@@larsgsanger3105 Lars....🎹🥁🎤🎤🎸😎
This is a nice 90s scoop
Fantastic!!
👍❤️
Robbie who, Oh that Robbie who sold the rest of his band mates down the river
for more money and self glory.
Are you sure? Oh, I guess you were there.
Jim L It's been well documented that Robbie shafted the rest of the band, and that's why they had a big fallout with him.
To answer your question no I wasn't there, but I have read countless books on the band and that's a fact that he shafted the rest of the band.
Thanks for the reply. Sorry for that one comment. Yes, I use to think that same thing after I read Levon's book but I have recently read Robbie's book and I've come away with a different slant. The stories in the early part of both books are similar but after the Woodstock era, the accounts differ re: Dylan reunion and Capitol Records, selling of the publishing rights, heroin use and being too f.... up to work, etc. Unfortunately, Robbie's book stops after the Last Waltz so I'm not sure why he didn't attend Richard Manuel's funeral.
Rick B - Yes - I think Levon really put the nail in the coffin of his own credibility when he blamed Robbie for Rick's death. It wasn't the years of alcohol and hard-core drug abuse...it wasn't wear and tear resulting from Rick's own self-destructive tendencies... it was Robbie's greed. That sort of reasoning smells like denial coated in anger coated in bullshit.
There's a million sides to every story ... and having read all the books that are out there on this sad subject, I see no reason to accept Levon's version as the gospel. Doesn't mean that I think Robbie's an angel...but he's not the Antichrist either.
What a tragedy all around. Long live The Band.
Sullyboy 1974 the band. The last Waltz with van morrisson
Despite being a fairly serious music fan I didn't recognize the greatness of The Band while most of the members were still alive... I thought about venturing to one of Levon's concerts but never made it...
Wow, this 90s lineup was great! What a band! Rick, Levon, and Garth, plush Rick Bell and Jim Weider -- both great additions -- and the second drummer stops seeming pointless when Levon gets out front to play another instrument. I like this a lot better than the version they toured with in the 80s with the Cate Brothers.
Danko was always my favorite Band vocalist, but that voice weathered and softened by age is just beyond gorgeous.
🌸❤️🙏
I'm still loving Levon Helm. R.I.P...
Is that an En Vogue song? I love it :D Love this concert, love and miss Rick and Levon every day. Richard as well.
Levon is my hero....always has been and I would not dare criticize but I really like the greasy tempo from new Orleans jazz festival version better.
Strange interpretation of Stage Fright by Danko. We'll let it slide.
Garth still going strong in 1996.
there's Garth and Levon... you calling this the Band? THE Band?? Maybe it should have been called Just another Band
Love every note always have
das spinne (previous poster) ........maybe you should just keep listening to Beiber to appreciate good music , or Miley - that's where the talent is : )
Reportedly, Robbie's microphone was not even on during the making of The Last Waltz. Vocals not his strong suit. Levon confirmed this many times.
I love the band. I’m listening omg . I grew up listening to this, BUT not this YEAY
👍❤️
Why do they only change diapers when they poop#diarrea
37:40 Stand Up
Robbie left the band in 1976 after the last Waltz, he has a unique voice that is raspy and deep check out his solo stuff. he held the bottom down in the band. great writer penned alot of thier hits
Robbie's voice is and was awful. The only thing being held down was the volume on his mic.
Correction, Robbie took credit for writing all the tunes. He didn't write all those tunes
thanks wharf - pie
Must not be too heavy of a Band fan :D...Robbie left in 76' because he simply was tired of the road and wanted to kinda retired and relax besides playing out, wearing himself out with the drugs of the road, seeing his friends dieing more and more...he couldn't stand it....I don't blame him...Look what happened to Rick and Richard...the road had ALOT to do with it.

++++Crazy Mama
Why so many covers?
Robbie was gone.
more like a blues band then The Band, Rick's voice is kinda shot, I'm not glad I watched this.
No, Rick's voice is kinda not-on-cocaine-and-booze but his voice was solid. He was singing a lot of things more delicately than he used to and that doesn't mean he's phoning it in. It's pretty sad how many people are looking to feel sad about unimportant shit due to their own erroneous interpretations of what they're hearing here.
I used to think as talented as Robbie Robertson he was the villan of the band and their breakup, but now I think it was Richard Manual and just the band in generals bigger then life drug use ( not against drug use but at some point it becomes depressing. But I don't want to make villans of them either. It was beautiful while it lasted but Beauty never last, and must be appritiated in the moment, or it leaves you. THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!!!!!!
No villains here. Just human beings with human frailties. I hope you get help for your depression.
❤️
Actually the original 5 played a few songs together at one of Rick's shows in 78' at the Roxy...:D
Love the way at 37:37 where Levon loses his right stick at the end of The Weight, and makes the last hit with the palm of his hand!
I watch this particular concert largely for that moment! Haha. At the beginning of The Weight, Lee also lets his cigarette slip out of his mouth before singing, but it gets stuck on his lip for a second and Randy (second drummer) can be seen laughing his ass off.
Once again . Robbie isn't there . So much for the Brotherhood that he was talking about in his book
I was lucky enough to film for Levon 4 times in 2009 and 2010. I shook his hand once, felt like lightning.
YES!!! My hand throbbed for blocks, like in a cartoon.
❤️
Is there anything Garth can't play?
Levon. God bless your rockn soul
I could swear I watched some show in the 80's.. dunno if it was an awards show or what..and they introduced the Band (I assume this was around 83/84) and everyone went nuts.. I didn't know who they were - too young.. but then they made a big deal about Robbie Robertson coming out and joining them for a few songs.. it stuck with me because I wondered why everyone was making such a big deal about these guys. But I could be wrong..like I said I was young.
❤️
Free Your Mind, from the High on the Hog CD. Damn good interpretation. Love this version even better. Not much in the way of effects, and straight rock and roll.
27:29 Crazy Mama
Free your mind
🌸❤️🙏🇸🇪
At 32:38 Levon spits the cigarette out of his mouth just a second before he starts singing haha maybe he forgot he had a smoke in his mouth, that or he forgot he was just about to start singing “I pulled into Nazareth” haha when he sang the first line did anyone else hear what sounded like he sang NaTHareth not NaZareth :)
Richard was beside him was playing and watching Levon play and saw the cigarette and was laughing. Levon never missed a beat like a true professional. I wonder who eventually got the burning smoke from under Levon :)
Maybe the camera man who was filming Levon grabbed the cigarette before it burned the outer coating on some wires or something else :)
Thank you for uploading this, I’ve watched it a couple of times or more.
Rest in Peace to all members of the band, The Band playing here and Robbie Robertson who recently passed away.
Is Robbie on the stage? If not, why not? And poor Rick looks unwell.
Well, I think guitarist, writer, and vocalist Robertson didn't want to be on stage. Jim Weider, Robertson's replacement, ended up touring with the band for almost fifteen years after they decided to regroup without Robertson, staying close and working with Levon until Levon's passing. You are right about Rick. His, to me at least, sudden weight gain and lack of color signaled something was definitely going on in his life that he lacked control of - and was spilling over into his health. I saw this version of the group and they really brought it for a 90-minute set when I saw them. Such consummate pros who loved playing. They left us all one of rock's richest audio legacies which many new ears discover every year.
Thank you-phillyPhan,thought i'd seen everything "THE BAND" has ever done if you can direct me to any more i appriciate you, quality is great too.
👍
UNAS de las mejores bandas que de los,60...""THE ÚLTIMO VALS"".....✨💫💥🎸..TODA UNA VIDA DE ROCK&ROLL...🎸
The Band! Forever lives...............

This is not the band.
The last walz the movie
👍
who b dat on de gitar? second piano? garth is a friggin' musical mystic... levon, well, i need to just dance when he hits that box!
Thanks brou ! ✌🏽
Levon “Slapp’n da Bass Mon” on Crazy Mamma , what a Band ! 💥THE BAND💥
Did they invite Robbie to play? Would they? Would he? As much as I live them each individually, its not The Band without him.
the rhythm section is not true to the orig Band's loping swing style. Two drummers remove The Band's once unique feel; now Helm has to drum in sych with the other drummer and the bass must slog along.
Two drummers worked brilliantly when it was Helm and his nephew Terry Cagle. They shared an almost clairvoyant understanding of each other. Not the case here.
Oh really, the "unique feel" is "removed"? Levon is following the new guy huh? The bass "must slog along"? What in the fuck are you even talking about? You're trying really hard to reimagine this performance as something that it isn't. I'm listening to it right now and everything you're saying is absolute nonsense. At least come up with some meaningful criticism that isn't easily disproven.
some of the best garth sounds on a band concert. wish they would have let him shine through on the last waltz. he was always the best
is levonplaying a what looks like 8 strings on RAG
It's a mandolin. Looks like a Gibson L-5
