The Band - The Weight - 11/25/1976 - Winterland (Official) 

If you lived in the 70's, then you know!

I would literally give one of my arms to be able to go back in time and be there. God. What music. There will never EVER BE A BAND AS GOOD!!!

I am an old Hippie and love to listen and play along with this song!

I remember the day I bought the album “The Last Waltz” and listening to it was as close as I have been to a having a religious experience. I was seriously down in the dumps in six months my Mother had died of cancer (Fuck Cancer) on of my best friend growing up daughter had been killed in a car crash and my favorite Aunt and my Mother’s best friend was killed by a drunk driver who ran a stop light and t-boned her car. I bought the album, a bottle of 101 proof Wild Turkey, and rolled myself the 2 gram joint of Humbolt county’s finest and ate bunch of mushrooms. Anyway I listened to that album over and over again until I had drank and smoked everything that there was to drink smoke or eat in my house and when I woke up from finally passing out I didn’t have a hangover and the weight on my soul seemed to have been lifted like the rising of the sun on Easter Sunday morning.

I want to listen this music when I become an old man.

DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS.

RIP Robbie - one of the best ever.

What a band, they were The Band!!

Watching this in 2023, I can't help but be reminded just how many of the performers I grew up listening to are now gone.

Holy shit this is incredible

RIP Robbie 😢😢

Si j'avais une machine à remontée le temps je partirai à San Francisco assister à ce fabuleux concert...le Band des musiciens d'exception.

I love this version.

Excellent!

The weight at San Francisco 25 November 1976

There's a lot going on in this rendition, but Levon's voice (a blend of country, blue grass, and rock-a-billy) stands out. His and Rick Danko's voices have a special blend, too. I like it played slightly slower, but each performance is unique.

I love how Robbie is checking to see that he's in key and pointing at the monitors because he can't hear himself.

This is one of those songs that can fool you into believing there is no despair in the world for five minutes. If aliens heard this song and you told them terrible world we live in, they wouldn't believe that such an evil place could produce magic like this.

Greatest Song Ever.

I have the DVD and it comes out a couple time a year. Some of the best music out there. These kids today don't know what they are missing

So awesome to see this video. Thank you for your work. I'm crying it's so good and brings back memories. xoxo

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARTH!

Levon!!!

Written by Robbie Robertson, and sung by Levon!

Thank god this was recorded it's the best version ever. I can't listen to the original anymore

Oh Sweet Jesus. .Robbie Robertson is so gorgeous.

Absolutely cracking version, I've got on the Last Waltz DVD but this is better, although with the Staple Singers it was still bloody good with old man staple .... we did a fair version with OBM (old blue moses) a few moons ago .. love to get back into it all .... makes you feel good, cheers for sticking and linking to the Joe Bonamassa webmaster thingy ...

Well Done Bravo!

Bob Dylan was introduced a few moments later.

the band, für mich die einzige Band!!

the band

Love the Staples version. This is smoking though.

🇨🇦

All the Winterland videos is dark. I have noticed that

This is what i like . Robbie is totally out of tune but they keep going .. Was pure 70's live ! amazing levon vocal too though :

Footage is not close enough. I need binoculars

Why do Richard and Garth always switch places on this song?

Must be one if the last White & Black videos of a famous pop-rock band, right? Mid-late 70s

why is the light only on Robbie?

Man, this song makes me want to erase part of realities and stich it back together and go on an adventure with this cat looking plant i found

robbies talent lays in his fingers not in his singing voice 🤨

The greatest BAND ever to bad they didn't like each other

Dont mind me im just deleting space

this should prove that as much as I hate the snake robbies mike was definitely on for the original recording

:)

This is when music actually meant something! The music nowadays for the most part is relating to sex or drugs. It is sad because music is supposed to progress, but it is just degrading nowadays. It is truly a shame!!

0:56 Robbie is “singing” in a way-so that it looks like he’s _belting_ out those notes … While also making it so his voice can barely be heard. Listen to the way he says “Put the load right on me”. Don’t get me wrong, he was a great musician; But, the rest of The Band wasn’t lying about the kind of person he was.

Who's playing fiddle?

Jojo send me here

the following error when running on a daily report and a long yet but I'm sure I have been sent from Samsung Galaxy's

Robbie tone deaf in so many ways

Carmen and the devil walking side by side ruins it..ughh

I will not purchase any item advertised on RU-vid.

I figured the Staples singers would've sang live with them.
