You're not the only one.😁
I was there... played with Garth...met Richard...thef ucking band
Wouldnt give my arms.. id like to play with them.. id give up a leg or my left ..... lmao
Surely not this gig they sounded horrible without Eric.
Imagine hanging out with Levon! Having a cold beer with him? What a treasure it would have been. RIP Levon :(
I am an old Hippie and love to listen and play along with this song!
DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS.
I remember the day I bought the album “The Last Waltz” and listening to it was as close as I have been to a having a religious experience. I was seriously down in the dumps in six months my Mother had died of cancer (Fuck Cancer) on of my best friend growing up daughter had been killed in a car crash and my favorite Aunt and my Mother’s best friend was killed by a drunk driver who ran a stop light and t-boned her car. I bought the album, a bottle of 101 proof Wild Turkey, and rolled myself the 2 gram joint of Humbolt county’s finest and ate bunch of mushrooms. Anyway I listened to that album over and over again until I had drank and smoked everything that there was to drink smoke or eat in my house and when I woke up from finally passing out I didn’t have a hangover and the weight on my soul seemed to have been lifted like the rising of the sun on Easter Sunday morning.
I want to listen this music when I become an old man.
Me too. Check out Playing for Change. Global effort and amazing!

The Weight is a an excellent piece of music. I want you to live long truly.
shouldn't have to wait, you should be listening now!!
Holy shit this is incredible
What a band, they were The Band!!
RIP Robbie - one of the best ever.
RIP Robbie 😢😢
Watching this in 2023, I can't help but be reminded just how many of the performers I grew up listening to are now gone.
Me, too! I'm obsessed!
Si j'avais une machine à remontée le temps je partirai à San Francisco assister à ce fabuleux concert...le Band des musiciens d'exception.
So awesome to see this video. Thank you for your work. I'm crying it's so good and brings back memories. xoxo
I love this version.
Excellent!
There's a lot going on in this rendition, but Levon's voice (a blend of country, blue grass, and rock-a-billy) stands out. His and Rick Danko's voices have a special blend, too. I like it played slightly slower, but each performance is unique.
Greatest Song Ever.
Charlie Goodman No doubt
The weight at San Francisco 25 November 1976
This is one of those songs that can fool you into believing there is no despair in the world for five minutes. If aliens heard this song and you told them terrible world we live in, they wouldn't believe that such an evil place could produce magic like this.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARTH!
I have the DVD and it comes out a couple time a year. Some of the best music out there. These kids today don't know what they are missing
Especially since you don't have to see people on their phones recording this makes it alot better. Since this type of stuff only happens to people that actually lived not just researched.
+Aaron Mann Yes I am 70 years old but my brain in still about 38. I need music like this. It starts everyday of my life.
+64Maryellen I totally agree. I still get hot flashes every time I see or hear vintage levon.
My 15 year old loves music like this the new stuff she doesn't care for because it's talking about drugs sex killing and robbing
@@elizabethcoopers901 me too Elizabeth!
I love how Robbie is checking to see that he's in key and pointing at the monitors because he can't hear himself.
Strange behavior considering he's standing in front of a high power Fender twin!
Levon!!!
Written by Robbie Robertson, and sung by Levon!
Que belleza ...tantos recuerdos ..y el gran Robbi..🎸🔥🙏QEPD ....gran banda ...desde Argentina 🇦🇷✌️
i grew up in the bay area, spent many a day at winterland, i cant believe i missed this show
Best ever
THANX LOVE THA MUSIC ♡
The Ultimate!
Unvergessen!
Detlef, I guess you'll musical performance Saturday. Enjoy it!!!
Absolutely cracking version, I've got on the Last Waltz DVD but this is better, although with the Staple Singers it was still bloody good with old man staple .... we did a fair version with OBM (old blue moses) a few moons ago .. love to get back into it all .... makes you feel good, cheers for sticking and linking to the Joe Bonamassa webmaster thingy ...
I have loved the band for year's and will robbie cant wait till Nov when testimony comes out! love u robbie
Oh Sweet Jesus.
.Robbie Robertson is so gorgeous.
Well Done Bravo!
the band, für mich die einzige Band!!
Bob Dylan was introduced a few moments later.
Thank god this was recorded it's the best version ever. I can't listen to the original anymore
The Grateful Dead do it better.
This one from a few months earlier is very good also th-cam.com/video/HJ7xzDL8YZU/w-d-xo.html
Love the Staples version. This is smoking though.
Richard on the LOWREY. fUCK.
the band
This is what i like . Robbie is totally out of tune but they keep going .. Was pure 70's live ! amazing levon vocal too though :
🇨🇦
All the Winterland videos is dark. I have noticed that
in real life it was always real dark inside, spent many a day there
robbies talent lays in his fingers not in his singing voice 🤨
And in his writing
why is the light only on Robbie?
Because he is so beautiful.
@@heathergibson3590 yeah but Levon is bringing the light to him
Must be one if the last White & Black videos of a famous pop-rock band, right? Mid-late 70s
This is the Bill Graham Presents "documentary" video, shot by a BGP employee with a single B&W camera, completely unrelated to Scorsese's filming, and never meant for public release.
and thank Goodness Bill recorded this. Love the Staples, but the concert version is so much better than the soundstage version in the movie
Why do Richard and Garth always switch places on this song?
+Jalan Hart My guess is "that's way we've always done it". They recorded it that way & devised their own approaches to the song/music/instruments.
Good as Richard was, Garth was the better piano player. He also plays piano on "Rag Mama Rag."
Footage is not close enough. I need binoculars
Man, this song makes me want to erase part of realities and stich it back together and go on an adventure with this cat looking plant i found
The greatest BAND ever to bad they didn't like each other
Why?
I figured the Staples singers would've sang live with them.
The recording you were thinking of actually was in 1977 and the last waltz was in 1976.
This is when music actually meant something! The music nowadays for the most part is relating to sex or drugs. It is sad because music is supposed to progress, but it is just degrading nowadays. It is truly a shame!!
yes...no songs about sex or drugs in the 60s and 70s....
this should prove that as much as I hate the snake robbies mike was definitely on for the original recording
He handled the intros all night.
Dont mind me im just deleting space

Robbie is “singing” in a way-so that it looks like he’s _belting_ out those notes … While also making it so his voice can barely be heard.
Listen to the way he says “Put the load right on me”.
Don’t get me wrong, he was a great musician; But, the rest of The Band wasn’t lying about the kind of person he was.
@@JGK-mt7io No no no. His mic had to be on, so that _he_ could be the one to talk between songs, and introduce the next song.
In all honesty though, I made that comment because of how many people I’ve heard-referencing this one performance, as proof that he didn’t sing into a dead mic during shows, despite what The Band said.
I think it’s pretty obvious that he wasn’t actually singing during their shows, and that he just wanted it to look like he was singing, because it gave him more attention.
What a bunch of nonsense. Must everything about Robbie Robertson be a conspiracy theory? The guy wrote lovely music and The Band interpreted it wonderfully. Let’s be thankful.
@@andrewkemp1882 You can literally see it in this video.
@@CipherSerpico You can see him singing into a mic and you can hear it. What you can’t see is evidence that he did it to give himself more attention. That’s your imagination.
@@andrewkemp1882 Do you understand how Music or Singing works?
LISTEN to what he is “Singing”.
What he is “Singing”-is not in key.
What he is “Singing” is not melodic-in any way.
Not one of those “notes” that he “Singing”-is in harmony with the rest of the Music.
He is grunting the words in the lyrics-and making it look like he’s harmonizing with the rest of the Band.
He is not actually _Singing._
You can debate me all you want;
What I’m saying-is a fact.
Who's playing fiddle?
No one is on this song, but Rick played it on a few others.
Larry Packer, according to Wikipedia
:)
Douglas Quick whats that mean?
the following error when running on a daily report and a long yet but I'm sure I have been sent from Samsung Galaxy's
Jojo send me here
Robbie tone deaf in so many ways
Carmen and the devil walking side by side ruins it..ughh
