The Band & Emmylou Harris 'Evangeline' 1978.avi 

Being from SAINT MARTINVILLE , LOUISIANA and having a statue of EVANGELINE in our church square really has affected me.

Cliche. But it really doesn’t get any better than this. R U kidding me - Emmylou and Da Band. Cmon man❤

This is the song my parents names me after, pretty cool.

I don't know I've watched it maybe 70, 80 times over the last 45 years. If there is a genre called Americana, this is it. These performers' impact on our music was and is profound. They are masters of their craft. I'll be watching until my boat goes down.

Oh how I love this song, Long live The Band and Emmylou Harris

Every time I listen to this I feel privileged and humble. This is pure musical magic. It touches every emotional fibre in my soul.

Levon Helm was so good as Loretta Lynn's father in Coal Miners Daughter that the real Loretta burst into tears first seeing him on screen - it was her father come to life.

The guys of "The Band" sound great. Then Emmy Lou kicks in, and the whole song gets amazingly good! Wonderful combination!!!

Saw The Last Waltz on TV for the first time in 1980. Watching this song, I was obsessed, who is that lovely girl singing like an angel? Went out and bought Blue Kentucky Girl, my first purchase of a country album, and the rest is history. Also amazed that they only rehearsed it once, most of the band were playing not their normal instrument, and it was written the night before. Will never tire of watching this performance. Thank you to Martin Scorsese.

An angel singing with one of the best bands ever.

I just discovered Emmylou Harris a few days ago through First Aid Kit and I can't stop listening to her

Garth on accordian, Danko on fiddle, Levon on mandolin?, Richard on drums. Amazing display of versatility by an awesome group of musicians

Emmy Lou Harris is an icon of American music.

Love her voice. Emmy Lou Harris, the purest voice in country music.

So proud my 22 year old son discovered them on his own

As much as I love Sheryl Crow, and I do, Emmy Lou, singing this song with the great Levon, is sheer perfection! ❤️

Emmylou is in perfect harmony in this performance. She is a "queen".

I have never seen a group of more talented musicians in one band before or since.!!

Beautiful. Simply beautiful.They don't make music like this anymore.

i’ve seen this a thousand times and i hope to see it a thousand more times before i croak

The best of the real music that was anti-disco of the late 70's. The Band

One of my absolute favorites. The Band is amazing and adding Emmylou takes it over the top. She can harmonize with anyone.

Been in love with Emmylou for 50 years.

Rick Danko what a voice. All in all what a bunch of great artist together

One of the greatest bands ever .....playing w/an angel attached to it....Where all this music has gone?

Two beautiful singing angels, Emmylou and Allison. The Last Waltz. Vinyl for the Ages!

I love this so much. And it's heartbreaking too, though. The angelic Emmylou off in the clouds, separate from them until she sings! Rick and Levon so young at the top of their game. Robbie with his 24 hours song lyrics. All of it! This is solid fucking gold. RIP, guys.

Nobody can beat The Band and Emmyloe Harris

Emmylou is so talented, i love everyone of her songs , and this is another favorite .

Never get tired of listening to this son....emylou is unique....

Legend has it that Robbie Robertson wrote this whole song the night before!

The number of singers she has sung with is amazing! The number of awards she has won is even more amazing. An Angel to me!

Regardless of when, who and how it's a great song! Saw Emmy Lou, Willie Nelson and Charlie Daniel's in Concert and it's a time I will never forget!

Such an important song. This is pure magic.

Emmy Lou is an angel. A fan from India 🙏

How sweet it is!!👍😁🍀🍀

Love the way THE BAND musicians interchange instruments and Lead vocals with ease. Emmy Lou adds the icing! Great!

The level of musical talent on display here is something to behold. This pushed me to learn more about Emmylou Harris and I wasn't disappointed ☺️

Rest Peacefully Robbie :( . Heart broken

i can keep listening to this !!

This is one of the absolute greatest moments ever Emmylou, Danko, Levon= Hot fire

Saw Emmylou and The Band at the old Warner's Theater in Fresno, CA around 1981. They recorded a live album that night. 'Twas great!

short and sweet. mostly sweet. emmylou and the band make a great combo.

moment captured in time. . .musicality and Americana pure. . .respect for the music and the harmonies. . .magical and timeless

Emmylou brings gold to every gathering

so nice to see they can swipe instruments and still sound like the band perfectly

who could not love this woman

Emmylou Harris is beautiful.

Everyone wanted to sing with Emmylou. She was a jewell in any crown.

This may be one of the best country song of all time

The pisser is that this song was written by Robbie Robertson the night before this take on film. Some of the singers (like Emmylou) were reading lyrics off of big cards held up off-camera. They only rehearsed it once before the take. (All testified by Levon in an interview years later). So listen to this arrangement, the vocals, and the keyboard work by Garth. Absolutely Stunning.

As a musician, bass 44 yrs. My daughter learned this one!!

Emmylou is an angel

WHO DID EMMYLOU NOT SING WITH OVER THE PAST 50 YEARS , WHAT A LEGEND

One of my favorite songs. So beautiful. So much talent on that stage.

I was privileged to see The Band a couple of times in the early seventies

I saw Levon and his daughter Amy sing this at one of his "Midnight Rambles" in his barn in Woodstock, NY on New Year's Eve 2006 or maybe 2007. Best NYE of my life.

such a great performance ....... R.I.P., Levon

This song has vibe so good that we can feel today at 2021

I love the honesty, and at the conclusion of the song..no clapping or audience just a smoky stage.

What a band. Truly masters of their craft. Is there any equivalent today? Anyone even close? Surely this inspired people to emulate.

Been listening to Emmylou since the year I was born ('77). My dad was always blasting her records on our living room record player. This is such a great tune. Love the hoedown sound. Fiddle, mandolin and accordion make it sound so good.

Emmylou was born in 47, so she's 31 here? Wtf, she looks 20 lol. Awesome song!

Dear God Emmylou looks and sounds HEAVENLY.

the years have been very kind to emmy lou

Emmylou and Levon - enough talent right there to burst the world at the seams.

God, Emmylou is a vision.

emmylou harris is an angel. shes a great musician and knows a lot about music, too

Hermosa melodia ,me siento en el espacio una paz ❤

RIP Rick Danko and Levon Helm. They loved to sing.

"THE BAND" - One of the BEST - if not, THE BEST BAND - in HISTORY! Yes Sir! Listen well to ALL their albums - and you'll never be the the same - thank God!

Pure perfection!

Lyrics: She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi Alone in the pale moonlight Waiting for a man, a riverboat gambler Said that he'd return tonight They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi Loving the whole night through 'Til the riverboat gambler went off to make a killing And bring it on back to you Evangeline, Evangeline Curses the soul of the Mississippi queen That pulled her man away Bayou Sam, from the south Lousianna Had gambling in his veins Evangeline, from the Maritimes Was slowly going insane High on the top of hickory hill She stands in the lightning and thunder Down on the river, the boat was a-sinking She watched that queen go under তিনি শক্তিশালী মিসিসিপির তীরে দাঁড়িয়ে আছেন ফ্যাকাশে চাঁদের আলোয় একা একজন মানুষ, নদীর নৌকা জুয়াড়ির জন্য অপেক্ষা করছে বলেছিল আজ রাতে ফিরবে তারা শক্তিশালী মিসিসিপির তীরে ওয়াল্টজ করত সারা রাত ধরে ভালোবাসা 'নদীর নৌকার জুয়াড়ি খুন করতে গেল যতক্ষণ না এবং এটি আপনার কাছে ফিরিয়ে আনুন ইভানজেলিন, ইভানজেলিন মিসিসিপি রানীর আত্মাকে অভিশাপ দেয় যে তার লোকটিকে দূরে টেনে নিয়ে গেছে বাইউ স্যাম, দক্ষিণ লুসিয়ানা থেকে তার শিরায় জুয়া ছিল Evangeline, মেরিটাইমস থেকে আস্তে আস্তে পাগল হয়ে যাচ্ছিল হিকরি পাহাড়ের চূড়ায় উঁচু সে বাজ এবং বজ্রের মধ্যে দাঁড়িয়ে আছে নদীর ধারে নৌকা ডুবে যাচ্ছিল সে দেখল সেই রানীকে নীচে যেতে

My mom's favourite song.. and mine too ❤️

That beautiful hair...Beautiful woman.....

I'm a lifelong fan of Sweet Emmylou, but I just stumbled across this great video. Wow, this is as good as music gets. Love it, love it, love it...

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful !! 💚

The Most underrated band in the history of music, but the best in my opinion.

So sad to realize that only Robbie and Garth are left of that entire line-up ( oh, except Emmylou). May they all R.I.P.

My Emmylou is still so beautiful with her short gray hair!!

Richard on the drums & the phenomenal Rick Danko jigging away..not to mention ELou sounding like an angel from another planet..Mss Levon also

Emmylou is still at the top of her game. Thanks Angel!

As great music goes, it just doesn't get much greater...

Emmylou is the best and what a great band!!Love these songs!!!!

nice song tanks the band and emmylou !!!

Awesome! I love Emmylou!

THAT is the concert that I wish I could've been at.

The greatest of all time. Brings tears to my eyes. Watched the film about 50 times.

This is my definitive version! Damn Levon's voice was so good

Emmylou and The Band. Cmon man❤. Big ups!

Emmylou is a country GODDESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RIP Levon. You are sorely missed>

That hair.....Emmylou YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!!

I remember! ❤️

My favorite song from the greatest music documentary ever made, thank you Martin Scorsese.

The Band and Emmy Lou' Hot Band plus a few others were the very best bands of their era. And if Gram Parsons had lived --

Wow I have been searching for the version for a while. Emmylou's voice is amazing.

I love this song at 22 years

31 años tenía el angelito Emmylou en este vídeo?? No me lo puedo creer. Aparenta 18 como mucho, está guapísima y muy jovencita!!!

First time I saw this I was stunned by the talent on show and it must have been 40 yrs ago, still stunned!

absolute magic
