    "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" and "Up On Cripple Creek", are great to listen. Robbie Robertson writes some amazing material with passion and meaning. His SOLO later on was :Somewhere Down the Crazy River: A moody, southern blues epic song. cheers from the west coast, way up north

      @@lisamcphee8923 I don't think so. He loved music, he was a gentle soul. Unfortunately he got into heroin along with Richard and Levon. I read Robbie's book Testimony and Barney Hoskyns Across the Great divide, a biography of The Band. RIck's life was not all sadness. Richard more so, he struggled with heroin, cocaine and alcohol.

      @hannejeppesen1809 it's perfectly fine to disagree. I, too, have read the great divide, but you cannot watch the last waltz without seeing how fractured they all were. One can only imagine the debauchery & fights that went on. Seems to me Rick thought the party would never end and when he realised it had, he had nothing much to show for it but the memories. Good & bad.

    You've heard Levon Helm (The Weight) and Rick Danko (It Makes No Difference) but The Band had a THIRD lead singer in Richard Manuel😎 Check out "The Shape I'm In" off the Rock of Ages album!! Richard was awesome and it's definitely one over The Bands finest songs

  • @andyo3689

    To me The Band is equal to Beatles and Stones. Everything they ever did was "MAGICAL!" The BAND had three lead singers. Suggestions
    Chest Fever
    The Night they Drove Old Dixie Down
    Stage Fright
    King Harvest
    Tears of Rage
    The Shape I'm In
    When I Paint My Masterpiece
    Time to Kill
    Ophelia
    Acadian Driftwood
    I Shall Be Released.
    The lead here was bassist Rick Danko
    (I wish I could sing like him)
    Richard Manuel sang the upper registers and played piano.
    The singing drummer and muse for The Band was Levon Helm.
    Robbie Robertson was the lead guitar player and principal songwriter and the multi instrument master (saxes, organs, clavinet,) was Garth Hudson.
    The Beatles loved the Band.
    The Band was Bob Dylans back up group.
    They are MAJOR influences on so many.
    Thanks for playing them!

      Every member of the Band plays really distinctively - you can pick out Levon's drums, Robbie's guitar, Rick's bass, and Richard's piano (and drums for that matter) anywhere, any time. But for all that unique and special musicality, it's Garth that brings the secret sauce tying it all together into that sound that is the Band.

    "The Band" was a Canadian-American rock band formed in 1967. They started out as the "Hawks", the backing group for singer Ronnie Hawkins & later they were the back up band for Bob Dylan. Their most popular songs included "The Weight" & "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". But they had a lot of other great songs such as "King Harvest (Has Surely Come)", "The Shape I'm In", "Ophelia", "Up On Cripple Creek" etc.

The Band had 3 great lead singers...Rick Danko (Bass) has that frail, soulful voice you just heard. Levon Helm (Drums) has the down home, southern accented, little bit nasal voice you heard on "The Weight".

    The Band is in the top tier of my musical favorites. They were perfect, plain and simple. They had *three* top notch lead singers: bassist Rick Danko (who sings this one), drummer Levon Helm and pianist Richard Manuel, whose vocals are reminiscent of Ray Charles at times. Guitarist Robbie Robertson didn't sing lead, but wrote most of their wonderful songs. Multi-instrumentalist Garth Hudson added amazing colors to the sound. Amber is right on the money: Their harmonies aren't "pretty," but they are absolutely perfect. One of the finest bands of the rock era.

    Garth Hudson, the man on the Sax, plays many instruments and, although he does not sing, he is responsible for creating the unique Sound of The Band.
    He was also known as "The archivist of The Legendary Basement Tapes". The big box set of the Bob Dylan/The Band "Basement Tapes" CD's only exist because of Garth's decades long loving care of those recordings.
    Garth and Robbie are the only two members of the original Band still with us.

      @@Bassman2353 my only complaint about “The Last Waltz “ movie is that “Chest Fever” is not included. There is a little tease for it, and then it’s a let down when you don’t get it. I know it’s on the soundtrack, preceded by “Genetic Method”, which is fantastic in itself.

    I saw Danko at a very small venue in Newark, DE. There were sound problems that delayed the start and he was so drunk and pissed off that I didn’t think he would perform. As soon as it got right, he gave such a soulful spot on performance that I will never forget.

    Between Rick (on Bass) and (drummer) Levon with harmony, this song really sounds like when life throws you a curve. A building thunderstorm of emotional music wrapped in soul. Garth's horn solo gets me every time.
    Note that Mr. Hudson (Sax player in this clip) started playing different instruments at an early age in Church and at his Uncle's funeral home. Garth was so good that he had his first professional gig at age 12, but it was his skills in "The Band" that solidified his place among legendary musicians!

  • @riskyseeds423
    @riskyseeds423 Před rokem +1

    One of the geniuses in the Band was Robbie Robertson. He later did solo work including an album called Contact from the Underworld of Redboy. Many great songs and one that was not a hit but everyone should listen to is SACRIFICE. It features Leonard Peltier in a recording from prison telling his story. Moving. Some people have said it is indian centric but I think that it is a cellabration of his roots good and bad. Much Luv

    The Band was amazing!!! Levon Helm(drummer/vocals) was awesome! He def fell on some hard times in his last years but he was still putting out great music! Also a great actor. He was awesome in the movie "Shooter" as the gun expert Mark Wahlberg and Michael Peña go to see... I crack up every time I watch the part where he just rubs their hand and tells them who they are hahaha

    The studio-version Must Hear is "Chest Fever." That one will knock your socks off.
    You also generally can't go wrong with anything from The Last Waltz. Standouts that you haven't hit yet include "The Shape I'm In," "Ophelia," "Stage Fright" and "Life Is a Carnival" (the last of those isn't in the movie). In terms of guest musician songs, "Coyote" (Joni Mitchell) and "Caravan" (Van Morrison) are superb.
