@@zoeslovely7096 According to Barney Hoskyns biography they all made a lot of money, they did get 20 percent of the royalties until 3 of them (except Helm) willingly sold their share to Robbie. 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.

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.
