DEAR GOD... This surely must be one of the best performances of my generation....Despite the fact that it's an older song it's right up there with the Last Waltz...proud of Wilco and Fleet Foxes.
Its pure bliss. It makes me soooo happy to hear this. Wilco and Fleet Foxes truly,deeply, wonderful Artist. I could listen forever and ever....thank you for posting! LOVE
i am having last waltz flashbacks...the band and dylan...wilco and fleet foxes...coincidence, i think not...music transcended through generations, go to love it
i would usually frown on reviving old classics, no less performances from the last waltz (utter perfection is irrepeatable) but they did it so well, i think my heart swelled up over this.
why there isn't proshot footage of this once in a lifetime performance ill never understand, Wilco knew to save the SBD audio but watching video of a performance of this quality but the footage looks like it was shot on a potato just sucks.
I actually met Skylar. I saw them play at the Block Party in Seattle and the next day I was in a thrift store and him and his entourage came strolling in.
@jolietak The only reason the universe didn't implode is because Tom Waits didn't emerge from the stage to sing the last verse, but this is more than enough to implode my mind
i think they all know that theyre sayin it looks like a modern last waltz cuz of the fact that there are a shitload of awesome artists on stage all singin together like in the last waltz. that and the fact that its labeled Bob dylans i shall be released
@ohiodixiechick2 Jakob's done pretty well himself, more so than Lennon's kids, I would say. Yeah, I hope that Bob lives for long time, too. I don't know how much control Sony would have over Bob's music after his death. I'd imagine that the bulk of it would be under his kids' control, maybe Jesse's?, but I do think that a lot of material's gonna be coming out long after Bob's long gone. Jakob has his dad's mannerisms, I was watching a PBS interview & there were moments when he was all Bob.
@ohiodixiechick2 I doubt Jakob would perform them, from the very beginning of his career he's been trying his best to create his own niche in the music world, separate from that of his father's. But I do think that after Bob's death a lot of stuff that's been hidden in the vaults will start to come out. Hopefully.
ummmm, this was done by Dylan and the band...anyone seen the last waltz??....though still pretty cool.......each member should have had a verse though (:

One of my most favorite Dylan/The Band songs. Great.
they look like they're having such a good time, I love that
Yeah, I mean that combo is genius. whoever thought that up should be given a raise. I really loved it.
Amazing!! Love both of those bands. And of course Bob Dylan.
Tweedy will rule the near future as Bob ruled the decades before. HAPPY BDAY Bob you have brought much happiness to this world.

Awesome, Sean, thanks so much for posting this! Utterly gorgeous version of an incredible song.
this is a beautiful beautiful dream I could never have imagined
Aargh, f*cking love this song! This cover is amazing. Love Wilco...
you can tell they're singing purely from the heart
watch out for tears of genesis coming to a Box near you.
tweedy and the foxes and wilco are wonderful.
i am having last waltz flashbacks...the band and dylan...wilco and fleet foxes...coincidence, i think not...music transcended through generations, go to love it
my prayers have been answered.
My God this is the best performance since The Last Waltz.
i've not words to explain the fantastic voice of this man.
i love them, they're one of the best in the world i think
Would that I were in the audience for this. Just, just beautiful.
i would usually frown on reviving old classics, no less performances from the last waltz (utter perfection is irrepeatable) but they did it so well, i think my heart swelled up over this.
This is simply orgasmic. I didn't expect that falsetto from Jeff!
And great impersonation of Richard Manuel from The Band ;)
amazing!
I love how he does Richard Manuel's falsetto on the last verse.
Hopefully seeing them in February!
You can get a FLAC of this song as recorded in Portland 0n 8-23 over at etree. Amazing.
quite lovely.
No one can sing it quite like Mr. Richard Manuel. However, this is an incredibly beautiful version of the song.
if ever there were a greater moment in history, I've never heard of it.
this is one fucking amazing show wow. I can't believe it.
Incredible.
i love these artists!!
fleet foxes will be in italy saturday at rolling stone in milan!!!
fantastic
sigh just so good!
god dammit i fucking love jeff tweedy
I was at this show. What a great combo!!
amazing.
Amazing!
wow thanks for posting! amazing!
this is as good as things get
why there isn't proshot footage of this once in a lifetime performance ill never understand, Wilco knew to save the SBD audio but watching video of a performance of this quality but the footage looks like it was shot on a potato just sucks.
GREAT!!!!
increible!!
i'm sorry, but is sky actually singing??? woahh never thought i'd see that!
what a great song and combination of artists i must say
LMBO!!!!haha perfect!
Wilco + Fleet Foxes... + Dylan :)
I was at this concert. Fleet Foxes said that they would possibly change their name to "Shadow Captain"
wish i was there.....
This is so awesome, totally agree I think I just JIMP!
OH MY GOD IT'S JUST TOO MUCH I CAN'T TAKE IT.
Great!!! I liked!!! Great as the Band?
I actually met Skylar. I saw them play at the Block Party in Seattle and the next day I was in a thrift store and him and his entourage came strolling in.
Right. Both words and music are officially by Bob Dylan, unlike some Band/Dylan songs, which have a member or two getting co-writing credit.
I was there - I think it was August 16th 2008 or so
@jolietak The only reason the universe didn't implode is because Tom Waits didn't emerge from the stage to sing the last verse, but this is more than enough to implode my mind
that's just what some guy yelled out in the crowd and the band just ran with it!
wait WHAT? fleet foxes aaaaaaaand wilco?! you've gotta be kidding me. I agree with jolietak, the universe should've indeed imploded.
very nice.
holyyyy moses. fleet and wilco on the same stage! the universe should've imploded upon this concert. was this a music festival?
el concierto fue spokane, WA
they need to record this in a studio and release it. fo reals
I... Can... Die Happy now o_o....
Richard would be proud
Pretty great, but I like the Downwinders' version, recorded at the Hideout in Chicago even better. Jeff Smith has such a damn honest voice.
Jay Bennet would even love this
RIP Levon Helm
Fucking RIGHT!!!!!!!!
oh damn...
I just turned real
i think they all know that theyre sayin it looks like a modern last waltz cuz of the fact that there are a shitload of awesome artists on stage all singin together like in the last waltz. that and the fact that its labeled Bob dylans i shall be released
@SuperBackflipboy I did! Magic moment. Hello, friend.
@xanos4225 Americana!

cool..
Actually Dylan was one of the writers of this song.
Nels taking one for the team
@IOIOIOIOIOIOIOIOIOIO How bout if Richard Manuel came out for the last verse?
record this...NOW! i mean it!
@sillysp8 same here, this is a fucking dream for me :p
wilco is my favorite band butt jeff looks a little naked without a guitar, great version of dylan classic
Gee that was a pretty version...the should do it in a studio
@ohiodixiechick2
I doubt Jakob would perform them, from the very beginning of his career he's been trying his best to create his own niche in the music world, separate from that of his father's. But I do think that after Bob's death a lot of stuff that's been hidden in the vaults will start to come out. Hopefully.
@Spikedkitten kkkkplooosh *makes explosion noises with mouth*
ummmm, this was done by Dylan and the band...anyone seen the last waltz??....though still pretty cool.......each member should have had a verse though (:
Is there any way to get a cleaner version of this, or did they just do it live?
Amazing, I just wish there was less cheering, lol.. but aty least the audience knew to shush once anyone started singing again.
this isn't the last waltz
Can't hear this song and not think of Jeff Buckley...
you all do know this is a Dylan original...not "the band"
you all know this is a dylan original...not "the band"
is missing the Jeff Buckley version of that song
this is the band not dylan
