I watch this today, 8/9/23, with tears rolling down my cheeks. With the passing of Robbie Robertson, all the members of The Band, who I listened to in my little room, on my quadraphonic 8-track stereo, as a teenager in the ‘70s, are gone except Garth. Dylan and The Band were a huge part of the sound track of my youth. May God rest his soul. Rest in Peace, Robbie Robertson.
@@bigrich6750 Rich Danko and RIch Manuel was doing heroin, Levon too. The all smoked pot, and did cocaine and other stuff, but I Robbie did not do herion, I don't think Garth did either. Read Robbie's book Testimony, it's fascinating and gives a great insight not only to Dylan and the Band, but also that time period sixties into the seventies.
And was so greedy to "fu.k" all the other members of "The band". Greedy and opportunist to "play" the others that were at their lowest cause of the H. Just sad facts,just a "wise ass" backstabber
Saw Last Waltz in the theater recently with my 25 year old grandchild. We sang along as most others did. Then Bob came on and started singinging forever young. We cried, we just sat and cried.
You nailed it. Music of this caliber is sadly amongst the missing today. Bob and the Band changed rock music forever for the good. Recordings such as this will always be a benchmark I think.
I was there. Hearing this makes the hair on my neck stand up. What a night, and to be a part of rock and roll history! We bought tickets to a concert (I don't even remember who) and that show got cancelled. We were given a choice, our money back or tickets to The Last Waltz with The Band. We were so fortunate. ❤🎉
You were definitely blessed to see him at that concert. I only saw him once in an arena. He was definitely not impressed with speaker system. I had front row seats , it was a memorable time .
The greatest musicians in the world are not the ones who are the most technically proficient or can pull off the flashiest solos, but those who can lock into what’s going on around them and serve the song. That is why I’m arguing that The Band has the world’s most incredible players. Throughout this concert, they proved they can play in a variety of different genres, back up an eclectic mix of artists, and make it all sound seamless. I tip my hat to Robbie, Levon, Richard, Rick, and Garth for being the best in the biz!
I so agree! However, I totally appreciate and make an exception to Steely Dan for their expectations of technical perfection. They brought together the best session musicians in the world. 😁.
@@Oh_I_Will of course there is,The Beatles were groundbreaking and great musicians but in no way are they the best ever musicians. The Band were a lot more versatile and could switch instruments and singers for different songs with ease.
I'd argue that Little Feat captures both the technical proficiency musicianship while also creating an amazing atmosphere with their sound. Maybe not my #1 top band but definitely up there. The Band had amazing collaborations as well as original music that will always be timeless.
Dylan was much criticized for bringing The Band on tour with him!! But, the joy he had playing with them is so evident in this incredible performance! R.I.P. ROBBIE ROBERTSON AND THANK YOU YOU INCREDIBLE MASTER OF MUSIC!
I LOVE the moment they segue from "Forever Young" into "Let Me Follow You Down." Levon, Robbie and Rick all look at Dylan as if to say "Okay, Bob...where you goin' with this?" Then it all comes together like a perfect recipe. RIP, Robbie.
Yeah, the best moment of the 'Last Waltz'. I have to think they had no idea what Dylan was up to but it sure didn't fool them. Levon straining to keep his eyes on Dylan from behind with Rick & Robbie focused on the movements of Dylan's hands. Rick knows what's up as soon as Dylan's first chord; the way he breaks into that smile & immediately starts bouncing.
Love the moment when he looks at his 5 year young son in the front row, goes back continue singing Forever Young smile & points at him😊💯😊 Great moment. Thanks for the music. You all did so good❤ Life is short❤
Dylan at his very best. Blessed to see him about four years ago. Would have loved to see him live in his prime…. RIP Robbie. Thanks for all the music…. Looks like the Band is finally back together.
Was first footage I’d seen of Bob when my brother bought the last waltz video when we were teenagers. My mum was forced to watch it dozens of times. Her favourite was forever young. Love that hat.
You can see that The Band was peaking that night. Those beautiful heartfelt Robbie Robertson solos are just perfect. And you can tell that Bob was pulling a fast one on them with the decision to segue into “Baby Let Me Follow You Down.” But they flowed with it seamlessly, as if they had rehearsed it. And Rick Danko’s smile says it all. They were the greatest backup band in the world for a night.
I joined the Navy in 1978, and I can say that these songs were played by the guys often. Be it Scotland, The Azores or Israel - I listened to this. Made me think of home.
Great moment at about 4:17… Bob plays a D7 and you can actually see Bob mouth the words “7th” to Robbie, a chord perfect for transitioning to “Let Me Follow You Down”. Once he starts the riff The Band immediately jumps in, its so perfect it seems like they worked it out in advance, but it’s wild that it was completely impromptu by Bob
The interplay between them. The combined two songs is my love story with my woman. A million thank you's to Bob, Garth, Levon, Richard, Rick, and Robbie!
Love it, Dylan and the band Together rockin They go together just like peanut butter and jelly. Unfortunately, all the great rockers will leave us. but their music will live on
One of the greatest live clips of all time!!! The look on Mr danko's face is pure joy☺☺he knows the epicness that is about to happen and he can barely contain his happiness!!! The 6 of these men together is a force of epic proportions!!WOIW.
HOLY SHITZ -RockN Roll at its FINEST!!! How young they all were in this & now Robbie has left this plane & caught that ride into the next realm, wow-fly & rock on wherever U R now man… We still got the music, the latter tune-i didn’t want to end, JAMMIN, man were they JAMMIN there!! 😱😱😱❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🌞🌞🌞❗️❗️❗️
Raised in a outlaw motorcycle club. I can't tell you how almost holy this music is just someone like myself. You haven't done any living until you've been around a bunch of dying.. so may you have a strong foundation when the winds of changes shift..
R.I.P. Robbie... You are and will remain one of my most important musicians... So many good songs!!! Storyville - one of my favourite albums... The Last Waltz - Great Concert and Movie!! And the time with Bob Dylan -----> you've influenced me a lot!!
Id like to dedicate this on 2-22-21 to my Dad on his passing RIP Thank you for making me who I am. You're on the trip of a Lifetime and I will love you forever ♥️🌹💀🙏
yet another timeless, universal, and forever poetic way of weaving together music to let us know that even in our uncertainty there is a human spirit that we share...
U gave a cherished video of the 2 men that started this whole amplified music industry, the transition from folk festivals 2 common arena events. If not 4 U two... I PLEDGE MY THANKS 4 THESE 2 SOULS. Rest now, Robbie. PEACE
Robbie saw clear enough to have a right out celebration concert to end it all of at the peak of their powers. A monumental concert put on film by Scorsese. For us all to enjoy and for some few lucky ones to remember. Beautiful and powerful art.
Great music played with great energy, joy and fun. Good luck Robbie. Thanks to him, the rest of The Band, and Dylan for wonderful music when I was young and throughout my life. I am 72 now and still love this music. I now like finding, and being turned on by new young artists in small clubs and pubs in London U.K.
My god. This hollered rendition of Baby, Let Me Follow You Down is insane! Bob's at his youthful peak. (One of his many peaks!) This clip is truly GOD TIER.
I have always loved the band I heard of them from Bob Dylan when they would make the albums with him I saw Bob Dylan and you're going Arizona and he was still great I saw guards and is Oregon and he was really really good too so God bless all these guys for their music going to live on forever
Did you go to the ‘74 tour with Bob Dylan & The Band? I was there, lol, 4 times! We liked them so much that we followed them!! College days, could get by with it then! Fabulous memories!!
agree... time tested.. like so much over the years.... and so much cool stuff from right now... it.s never going to end... the creativity is never going to end.... !
I never thought his singing is the best in the world, but I ll take it any time, anywhere. This is one of those clips that belong in the Smithsonian for safe keeping.❤
Oh Robbie! Man did we love your playing and singing. You were such a true legend. And Bob…what can or cannot be said about you. We treasure every show and every song you continue to give us.
The lyrics man... he was really a genius though he hates all the fuss, but im gonna say thanx for keeping us forever young, god bless this brilliant music...
What a concept . I've seen it done with anniversaries, but I haven't seen it in weddings but a nice way to illustrate the forming of a union. I love the idea. 😊😂
Of all places I learned that there was a band in sociology class that got booed when an amp got plugged in. A few years later, holy crap! and my life changed forever. Thank you, Robbie!
When we bought the last waltz this was the first time I'd seen Dylan aside from on an album cover. The entire family watched the last waltz I watched it repeatedly as a then teenager. Bob in the flesh.did.not disappoint. I still think it's the best gig ever. My mum's favourite cos of this was Forever Young. A truly beautiful performance here.
Out of complete respect for The Band ,Mr Bob Dylan sang his heart out at The Last Waltz !He knew this was the end of the rock era and there had to be a true ,fitting goodbye and thankyou to the most respected and admired band in American music ! EVER ......
Bob's songs will be around till Eternity, he KNOWS they are good and good songs last the distance. I heard him say something like that in an interview. In his case, he has HUNDREDS of great songs!
Every musician on stage is checking on Dylan every few seconds...look at them giving Dylan quick glances, even Robertson in the middle of a solo. They are all following and serving the genius.
I can’t express the words of how I feel about Dylan. I live in NY and I was 15 years old, my friends and I cut school because it opened at a major movie theater before they rolled out with it. Watching him performing this song was something so powerful, we all looked at each other like “ could you fucking believe this?”
I read somewhere Dylan wrote this song for his children. May YOU stay "forever young" for us Dear Bob. We love you. So much your lyrics, thoughts have given to the world. As others have stated here, be blessed, have a happy heart, my God keep you close.
Marsha, Dylan did indeed write this song for his son. If you'll check at 3:09 you'll see where he acknowledges his son in the crowd by smiling & pointing. I've always thought this performance was kind of blah until that point, then it is kickass from there on.
@@mikegalvin9801Just his way of delivering an at least as beautiful baby himself…by the way this comes from a man who was in the delivery room twice himself…our living rooms at the time to be even more precise…the Dutch don’t need no delivery room for something that’s been going on for thousands of years before they even existed…even a manger would do, or so I’ve been told…
Tremendous! Legendary. So...bittersweet. I think this song means so much more the older you get. And, it must be said, when you name yourselves "The Band," you have a lot to live up to, and these guys always did.
I was a secondary school student when I went to watch the waltz movie here in Casablanca Morocco sometimes in 1977 I guess … I still remember these lost days full of enthusiasm & dreams , now I am 64 years old .
I had the good fortune to meet Dylan many years ago in Ohio. I spoke to him for several hours as he relaxed in my uncles farmhouse. He shared many ideas with me, one of which has stayed with me through the years. Dylan was a great advocate of moleskin pants. He claimed they gave you a solid base from which to face the world. Well, sir, I been wearing them ever since and I love them and I do believe they protected me from Covid 19 also.
If only Rick had stayed on the right path we would've had him such alot longer. He looked as though he had it all when performing...bopping happily to the music.
I watch this today, 8/9/23, with tears rolling down my cheeks. With the passing of Robbie Robertson, all the members of The Band, who I listened to in my little room, on my quadraphonic 8-track stereo, as a teenager in the ‘70s, are gone except Garth. Dylan and The Band were a huge part of the sound track of my youth. May God rest his soul. Rest in Peace, Robbie Robertson.
This may be tasteless but I am surprised Dylan outlived them all.
@@ValeskaTruax I thought the same thing.
@@bigrich6750 Rich Danko and RIch Manuel was doing heroin, Levon too. The all smoked pot, and did cocaine and other stuff, but I Robbie did not do herion, I don't think Garth did either. Read Robbie's book Testimony, it's fascinating and gives a great insight not only to Dylan and the Band, but also that time period sixties into the seventies.
Robbie stayed forever young.😅
And was so greedy to "fu.k" all the other members of "The band". Greedy and opportunist to "play" the others that were at their lowest cause of the H. Just sad facts,just a "wise ass" backstabber
They'll never be another Bob Dylan. There'll never be another, "The Band."
That's a bit of a classic song.
Nope, never. I wish I could see Garth Hudson before he is up there too but that’s not possible😢

@@nancyrobinson7764• Blah, blah... that's not relevant here!. A poet expresses himself with more than just words!
You got that right!
Rest in Paradise Robbie, ❤ thankyou for your wonderful and timeless contribution to music 🎶
R.I.P. Robbie. Thanks to you & The Band for all the timeless music.
Just so and well said. Another giant gone
I'm absolutely devastated rip.
HE,S PLAYING IN THE GREAT GIG IN THE SKY KNOW WITH ALL THE GREAT ROCK AND ROLLER,S WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE. PEACE TO YOU ALL MY FRIEND'S. 🙏✌️😎🏴
Tom Law is gone too. Robbie and Tom were so close, Faretheewell, boys.
forever young ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Saw Last Waltz in the theater recently with my 25 year old grandchild. We sang along as most others did. Then Bob came on and started singinging forever young. We cried, we just sat and cried.
Only Garth Hudson left. What an honor this music is to be left to exist. I love each and every one of you. Godspeed Robbie
Im not a religious man. Gawd bless Robby!. The Band changed the world. Love ya Robby! Rest in piece my friend.
Miss him fierce Rip Robbie. We are losing our icons. I pray they will all be up in heaven when I get there. After a stint maybe in a warmer place. Lol
You should be a Christian, Bob is not one who is easily conned
Sure
I've loved you guys for 60+ years. When we've all crossed over to the other side, I plan on hearing you perform this in person. It's about time❤❤❤❤❤
A strong candidate for the best thing on RUclips.
Totally :)
☮️❤️
I agree
A Quick One While He’s Away, at Rock n Roll Circus. Highly recommend.
You nailed it. Music of this caliber is sadly amongst the missing today. Bob and the Band changed rock music forever for the good. Recordings such as this will always be a benchmark I think.
That hat alone makes this one of Dylans best performaces.
Bob Dylan and The Band were just made for each other.
I was there. Hearing this makes the hair on my neck stand up. What a night, and to be a part of rock and roll history!

Wow
Precious Memories
I think I would have cried if I had been there to witness this beauty! History in the making!
We love you, admire you and are eternally grateful for the thrills you gave us all. Still giving us...The last Waltz. Burnt into our psyche.
So long Robbie. Your sublime music is ingrained in my life's soundtrack forever.

May u rest in peace amen alleluia
Probably the only performer in the world that could stand beside Dylan on a stage and be naturally acceptable as an equal. Dylans face shows it all.
I LOVE the moment they segue from "Forever Young" into "Let Me Follow You Down." Levon, Robbie and Rick all look at Dylan as if to say "Okay, Bob...where you goin' with this?" Then it all comes together like a perfect recipe. RIP, Robbie.

They're just waiting for Garth.....
He is on his prime,,, like me with 75 years...
Bob seldom smiles - but with Robbie and the band - wow! So happy and so into it and so unbelievably awesome - what a time!!!!
Was first footage I’d seen of Bob when my brother bought the last waltz video when we were teenagers. My mum was forced to watch it dozens of times. Her favourite was forever young. Love that hat.
I saw Dylan with The Band in Madison Square Garden 1974. I was 25 then and I cherish the memory. RIP Robbie.
That must have been fantastic! When they got back together and made the Planet Waves album including Forever Young.
Bob and the Band… no one can compare. Saw them in the 70s. Saw Bob last year in Greensboro. They ARE the essence of real music!
Its very true … The best essence from heart ❤️
These guys are playing for the sheer love of making great music together with Bob!

"Baby Let Me Follow You Down" is my fave Dylan song, he puts aside all the folky social awareness pretensions and just rocks
They were Dylan s backup band. !😊
I KNOW - that's when the magic happens. everyone was on FIYAH that night. what an epic historical concert and film!
I joined the Navy in 1978, and I can say that these songs were played by the guys often. Be it Scotland, The Azores or Israel - I listened to this. Made me think of home.
My favorite moment in the Last Waltz. Thanks for the upload. 🙏🌞🌹🕊️🌈
Bob Dylan and The Band -- it just doesn't get any better than this.
Certainly doesn't.
In love with his perspective on life. He touches my soul. Always has.
It most CERTAINLY does not!!!!
You've got that right. Music today doesn't come close to this. RIP Robbie ❤
RIP Robbie, only one member of The Band left now. One by one the greats are leaving us never to be replaced.
Woke up this morning sobbing. RIP, Robbie Robertson, along with Turkish legend Erkin Koray, who both left us on the same day.
Great moment at about 4:17… Bob plays a D7 and you can actually see Bob mouth the words “7th” to Robbie, a chord perfect for transitioning to “Let Me Follow You Down”. Once he starts the riff The Band immediately jumps in, its so perfect it seems like they worked it out in advance, but it’s wild that it was completely impromptu by Bob
Robby R l P what a lovely man and you singing with BOB and the Band just fantastic thanks
Thank you, Robbie. No one else can play guitar like you. Dylan must have known that.
Yup…even Van knew that, the way he said “yeah” when Robbie rips that solo during Caravan. Man, one of the best!
Un fing believable!!.. simply put ...together they were the best!
Bob Dylan & The band has produced some of the greatest music the world has ever seen
Love the changeover. Bob mouths to Robbie "let me follow you" and Levon waits for the prompt too. Seamless.
The interplay between them. The combined two songs is my love story with my woman. A million thank you's to Bob, Garth, Levon, Richard, Rick, and Robbie!

Marsha, Dylan did indeed write this song for his son. If you'll check at 3:09 you'll see where he acknowledges his son in the crowd by smiling & pointing. I've always thought this performance was kind of blah until that point, then it is kickass from there on.
@@brucerobinson9321 how old was Dylan’s son at the time?
Fair play this song is for my beautiful granddaughter Marsha 😁🏴
Supposedly he wrote it while waiting for the baby to be born; back in the days when dad's weren't in the delivery room.
@@mikegalvin9801Just his way of delivering an at least as beautiful baby himself…by the way this comes from a man who was in the delivery room twice himself…our living rooms at the time to be even more precise…the Dutch don’t need no delivery room for something that’s been going on for thousands of years before they even existed…even a manger would do, or so I’ve been told…
SAD SAD SAD this was one of the best concerts i have ever seen .Rest in Peace Robbie and Thank you
It just doesn't get any better. ♥ 🏴
Tremendous! Legendary. So...bittersweet. I think this song means so much more the older you get. And, it must be said, when you name yourselves "The Band," you have a lot to live up to, and these guys always did.
I love that they went all the way back to Bob's first album for "Baby Let Me Follow You Down" and rocked it up.

Great video, RIP Robbie, have another great adventure brother.
When I ever listen to anything from the last waltz it gives me a bittersweet feeling
Rock n roll history at it's finest
again in awe of the Nobel Peace prize winner but so so much more.A humble, beautiful human being. Go with God Bob.

Goodbye to one of the greats. Thank you and RIP, Robbie
One of my children played on the piano and sang this song to his older brother on his brothers bar mitzvah day! One of my all time favorites
Beautiful ❤️
I was a secondary school student when I went to watch the waltz movie here in Casablanca Morocco sometimes in 1977 I guess … I still remember these lost days full of enthusiasm & dreams , now I am 64 years old .
RIP Canada's Robbie Robertson life is lived in just an instant
Thank you for th music robby
I had the good fortune to meet Dylan many years ago in Ohio. I spoke to him for several hours as he relaxed in my uncles farmhouse. He shared many ideas with me, one of which has stayed with me through the years. Dylan was a great advocate of moleskin pants. He claimed they gave you a solid base from which to face the world. Well, sir, I been wearing them ever since and I love them and I do believe they protected me from Covid 19 also.
Haha😂
ooh..that smile from Rick Danko at 4:33 at the transition between the two songs..is just gorgeous!!! :) The entire Last Waltz is fantastic.
Somos hermanos...es algo amorfo.. sin sentido.. siendo mujer y hombre... sentimos igual.. saludos..
Danko is hip
If only Rick had stayed on the right path we would've had him such alot longer. He looked as though he had it all when performing...bopping happily to the music.
