The Band The Last Waltz

[beboploo]

hi "ballardinplain" ill fined out for you

[lwslade54]

This band was and still is considered one of the best bands ever. I'm proud to have grown up wit Rick Danko. He's the Bass Player. From a small town in Ontario Canada.

[itsinthesink]

Give it up to the singer drummer!!!

[itsinthesink]

how many people can drum and sing at the same time as well as Levon???

One.

[dirkgently85]

@itsinthesink - well actually Don Henley from the Eagles would give him a run for his money!

[m1garandisthebest]

@itsinthesink Ummm.... Let's see, PHIL COLLINS MAYBE, fuckin idiot..

[itsinthesink]

@m1garandisthebest he doesnt count. I dont like phil collins. Phil collins is nowhere near as awesome as Levon.

[twoofheartsxxx]

I swear winter time is the best time to listen to The Band. Of course I'd listen to them anytime.

[richiebear1969]

VH1 Classic should air this film 24/7.

[arnoldpalmerfan]

@richiebear1969 i agree lol

[Spencer2127]

Die Frage ist wer sind die 5 Weltfremden denen das nicht gefällt.

[wheresthedogstar]

R.Robertson IS bile ! Fuck him and Scorsese's obsession w/ this thieving hack!

[Smith22809]

@wheresthedogstar Get a life :P Stop thinking about fucking him and maybe move on to thinking about something else, life getting off the internet and going outside or maybe talking to someone. If not stay inside and respect musically genius when you see it.

[citronfleur]

@wheresthedogstar move on....it's pathetic...you're pathetic.

[imaStonesFan]

Rick Danko is so yummy looking

[k3304]

this is the Wizard of Oz among music movies

[fatschlamp1]

question:

is it possible for a band fan to go one comments page without directing anything bilious against robbie robertson...?

i'm betting that after they finish with robbie, they move onto yoko ono.

are these people retired or something; where does the time come from to sit at home posting such angry, teenage nonsense...?

[dcconsi]

all 3 0v um are looked aftere consy

[dpattenden]

where can one find an audio recording of this exact version of "Don't Do It" in full. It is not on the Last Waltz CD and I have other live versions, but not this one - it's their best!

[TheLazZzar]

@dpattenden give me your email ill send you it imo if you havent heard the full version your going to fall in love with it i mean i fell in love with robs first solo in the middle of the song it fucking great

[k3304]

@dpattenden , there's a bloated 4 CD set you can buy on Amazon, which is actually worth it if youre a big time fan. It has an amazing Baby Dont Do It plus King Harvest and Acadian Driftwood. The 2 CD is suffice, though.

[adamtzsch]

"Live dangerously and you live right. "

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

[ripperduck]

I guess this was the last song they ever played together. Poignant actually very sad end of era....

[TheLazZzar]

what chords does robbie play!

[headstock48]

This is one of the best songs of the concert. Love it.

[charlydase]

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! 

[headstock48]

@charlydase Hey, you too!!!

[k3304]

[kamsack]

[Busimuniwusbusbus]

[4rainbowed]

[rockncleve]

[jenniferjuniper97]

God bless Bill Graham! RIP

[rvz77]

DANNY IS THE SHIT!!!!! MMMYEAHH!!

[jlnosnews]

[4rainbowed]

Levon Helm was right; Robertson looks like a clown with all that stage paint for this mini-movie farewell.

[k3304]

if you post a video, please spell the headline correctly !!!

[andrewptob]

Happy Thanksgiving to you, Rick!

[Historicalydave]

[bkushjohnson]

[brianthomasp]

haha garth robertson is soooo chillen. 2:50

[MadisonSkeet]

you are a true band fan. Knowin all the band members name an shit. come on dog get your shit straight these guys are legendary no need to be mixin their names

[doc2earth]

I fucking love this dvd and this BAND!

[NewSoundMagazine]

Great musicians, great song-writers, great story tellers - Superb times....

Terrible pool players!

: )

[lwslade54]

If you check, Rick Danko was a driving force behind The Band. I use to sit at his parent's house and listen to these guys long before they ever made a recording. His brother Terry Danko is also an amazing and played with George Harrison at times.

[greeniem]

That wasw pretty dumb, thanks for nothing

[AppleSoldier]

this is real fucking music, the band is the best. they dont make them like that anymore.

[mharrin5507]

cutthroat

[4rainbowed]

SO HAPPY for Levon that he's doing a comeback thing, on HIS terms, with his daughter. Been a long time comin'. A shame that Danko and Manuel aren't here. Garth not really visable as much. I heard they had to write this tune for the occasion like, the same day or so, mostly stolen tune from another. Had they just replaced Robbie then and there, maybe the rest would still be alive, kickin' and having a good time (and so would WE!)

[ShavaShav]

No robbie.. no drove old dixie down, no cripple creek, no king harvest, no shape im in, no weight, no ophelia... should I continue?

I wish people would appreciate them as a band instead of picking them apart.

[13thfloor18]

This a Marvin Gaye cover i think dude.

I may be mistaken though.

[GGattuso1991]

the who did this song as well in 1971 on who's next.

[13thfloor18]

I had no idea, thanks my friend i really love the who. Quadrophenia is incendiary.

[MegaElcholo]

the band has inspired many people from the day not to mention robbie and all the first nation including the six nation from which he comes

[milkman52879]

Levon Helm is one of the most brilliant singers of all time, and not too shabby on the drums either.

[helmet959]

@milkman52879 but robertson wrote this song. like Tweedy and Farrar. i wish they'd just make up already.

[milkman52879]

@helmet959

Actually that's incorrect. This song was written by Holland–Dozier–Holland and was originally performed by Marvin Gaye in 1964, and was later covered by The Band. It's a crying shame they split the way they did, but if the things Robertson has been accused of doing to his band members are true, I wouldn't have anything to do with him either.

[MamaDeb56]

@milkman52879 & not to mention a great actor too!

[k3304]

@milkman52879 , you didnt mention Levon's mandolin playing==

[adnanteacher]

Now you know where the Eagles got their inspiration from

[rocco777777]

rick plays pool like a cold-eyed killer...

[NRT4]

I remember wanting to play Cutthroat after I first saw this

[rewindwood]

I want a hat like Robbie Robertson

[mrbobevans]

I went to The Wallflowers concert a couple months ago. Jacob Dylan was wearing a very similar hat.

[musicundertaker]
