Levon Helm, Rick Danko, and Jim Weider sing "Blaze of Glory"

[Wharfomatic]

Saw this song performed for the first time at "Summer's On The Beach" in Ft Lauderdale in Sept of 84 with a reformed "Band" that included Rick, Richard & Garth. Levon did not make that show. Saw Rick end many shows with it since then.

Nice piece of footage here with Cindy on dobro. She's still going strong and playing it hard.

no known recording of this piece. Levon played with Rick as a duo for while in the early eighties. This is from Accord NY folk and bluegrass festival. Jim weider went on to join a reformed BAND

Thank you for the video. This means a lot to me as a long time "the Band" fan.
