Listen to Rick singing "Stage Freight and especially "It makes no difference", and you will know what I'm talking about.

The 4 members reunited in the early eighties, under the name The Band, they had to get Robbie's approval to use the name, which he gave, he didn't have to. By the time Robbie left, he was tired of being the caretaker of 3 heroin addicts, he had a wife and 3 small children he wanted to spend more time with. The Band was together for 16 years, more than most bands. Several other musicians, George Harrison and I think Don Henley said it is very hard to keep a band together for 10 years or even less.

    Wonderful reaction. You two are the most honest reactors around❤. Also from this concert are "It makes No Difference" (sad one for Domenika)and "Up on Cripple Creek" (happy one for Andre). Thank you!

    A song that was a favorite when it first came out. This is the Band on its farewell concert. The entire video is a treasure. The Last Waltz.

    The clip at the end really brings the hillbilly out in me and I find myself wanting to be front porch sitting in a rocking chair with some smoke and a mason jar of moonshine just rocking and sipping. ❤

    The Last Waltz is an amazing epic concert/documentary style movie. And this is an epic version of an epic song. After 48yrs of hearing it, it still hits my soul the way it did when it was first heard back in 78'. The Weight is a song that moves and touches your soul to start with. The addition of the Staples in the movie just gave it an amazing wow factor. Mavis Staple still performs. We were fortunate to have seen her the summer before last. She still has her pipes I can tell you. I was too young still to have seen The Band live as I was born in 69' and still 6 yrs from beginning my live concert days. I did see Levon twice and Robbie once. But oh to have seen The Band live would have been incredible. Fate and destiny put those 5 together and they didn't squander it.

    The weight is one of my most favorite songs of all time. This is one of those songs that you fall in love with upon first listen; we all did back then and people who hear it still love it as you did.There’s something just magical about this song, nothing like it! A masterpiece of songwriting. The Band has a unique sound and an amazing catalog that I'm sure you'll also like. A few that are standouts are "It Makes No Difference", "Up On Criple Creek" and "I Shall Be Released".

    Well that’s weird. The song cut off before the end. In the cuts I’ve seen, it continues and then Mavis Staples says something like “that was beautiful”. Anybody else remember that?
