"I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse for the crime of having no dough now here I am back out on the street for the crime of having nowhere to go" Great lyric imo.
Rick Danko is my cousin. I obviously never got to follow his career as he died only a few years after I was born. However, my mother always made me watch this concert in its entirety growing up so I knew who my cousin was and knew a part of our family history, and I’m so thankful she did. This particular genre isn’t my style, but when it comes to The Band, you CANNOT help but love every second of their music, no matter the song. This show was so powerful to me because you see them all at their worst, yet all at their very best. Truly a great end to their career.
That's awesome! It's hard to beat these guys really. Nobody really quite did what they do. They inspired a sea change in music from Eric Clapton to a host of others. They're responsible for a lot of the sound of the 70s in rock n roll. Hell before that they were Bob Dylans band. Hel they are The Band! Lol So much talents in one place
I love the Last Waltz. Your cousin, the brilliant Rick Danko, who is sadly missed, was a great singer and multi-instrumentalist. I love the part on the Last Waltz when Rick is a bit worse for wear when he's playing fiddle and singing "Old Time Religion" with Robbie Robertson and Richard Manuel. It's so funny but you can see what good friends they were. Rick with the rest apart from Levon Helm were part of Bob Dylan's most famous world tour of 1966. That's another amazing thing to be part of, aswell as being in the Band, he backed Dylan on concerts some critics call are some of the best ever and very iconic. Thanks for sharing that with us. I really appreciate it. Take Care.
in their post--Robbie '80s revival with the Kate Brothers around central CA I saw them in small venues where we danced close enough to the stage to see Rick Danko had an especially radiant smile that bathed all present in warmth
Upon Robertson's passing I've dived back into music from The Band in the past couple weeks and so thankful for all of the video clips that survived thru the years. But I'm struggling with some serious melancholy, wishing I had seen Rick in concert in the years after The Last Waltz (I only ever saw The Band on Dylan's '74 tour). In addition to his great vocals and musicianship I've been so impressed with the passion and exuberance in his performances. His personality shines through. And his music lives on.
I was sad tonight watching this for the hundreth time in my life. Richard is clearly almost drunk but his voice is fabulous. I was sad to hear Robbie passed. I still don't like him though. He lacked warmth and heart.
You are sad that Robbie passed, but you don't like him, hm. Usually when you don't like someone you are neutral when they pass, but I will take you at your word.I think if you read different accounts or books you might view Robbie in a different light. From his own book it is obvious he was torn up about Richads addiction, as well as Rick and Levon. Also Barney Hoskyns biograpy gives a different and pretty balances view of what happened.@@teacup3133
Love this song. Rick is my favorite singer from The Band, but Richard and Levon is a close second. Use to think Levon was the best, but that was before I really listened to Rick Danko singing "It makes no difference" and Stage Freight.
@@hannejeppesen1809 With Richard, we got heartbreak or humor, often both, close together. With Rick, we got yearning, melancholy, a tinge of neurosis. With Levon, we got strength, honesty, swaggering confidence. When I listen to the great songs Robbie later wrote for his solo albums, such as Broken Arrow, What About Now, Go Back to Your Woods, Hold Back the Dawn, Soap Box Preacher-and he's singing them the best he can-I mentally assign them to one of those guys and think about what might have been.
When you look back now ,the guy who edited the Last Waltz movie should have gotten some kind of recognition for editing excellence ! Completely brilliant .
I was a touring musician when this film was released . I had been touring constantly with a rock n roll band for three or four years on the same circuit. The situation put me in a musical rut I could not get out of. When I watched the Last Waltz , I was immediately rescued from that rut because watching my musical heroes brought to me immense inspiration. And so I received sort of a musical " second wind." So grateful. I mean just watch Robbie Robertson; his excitement is CONTAGIOUS !
Whenever I see a video from The Last Waltz I'm struck by how much into the music they all were. Just such perfection, Robbie's guitar playing Levon and Richard singing and my favorite RIck Danko, and Garth whatever he does so unusual and perfect.
It’s so sad to see him struggle so much in this concert. But he recovered in the 80’s to have the best voice ever! But his demons never left him and I hope he’s at peace now. Rip to Rick, Richard, and levon
Whenever I watch the LAST WALTZ,especially this performance of RICHARD,I couldn't help but wonder what kind of a solo artist he would have been? I just bet he would have been awesome cause he sometimes plays drums as well as a great pianist.
They were so talented. They were the artists artists. Their first 2 albums Music From Big Pink and The Band and The Basement Tapes with Dylan influenced the way music was going. They had a influence on the likes of George Harrison, Eric Clapton, The Rolling Stones amongst others. Albums like Beggars Banquet, Let It Be, All Things Must Pass are just a few that has influence on them.
This is fantastic to hear and see. I loved these guys forever. Oh Levon, you were just a huge bundle of talent on any instrument you desired to play. Pure god given talent with all the members of the Band. God bless you all.
Thanks for this post! Every so often I'd come here and watch the movie clip, but was bugged that the song was incomplete, and by the intrusion of the Ronnie Hawkins intro seconds after the song ended. Glad to discover this.
Its so hard to believe this concert took place in 1978, about 50 years ago now. This is such a great great concert and i just love to watch it over and over now. The thing is, I saw the band back in those days and I totally took them for granted. Maybe because there was SO much great music being made in those days. I saw many bands in the same concert hall as I did the Band. I saw bands like The Stones, Led Zep, Clapton, Santana, the Doobies, Yes, Jethro Tull, Tom Petty...well the list goes on and on. Its no wonder I blew the Band off in those days. Its only now that I realize I should have been paying more attention.
Dylan " made " The Band. after the touring and the " Big Pink " sessions, about a year later Dylan visited and they played a couple of these songs ... Dylan said " you wrote this ?" !!!

I have the two-disc Last Waltz CD, I know there is more than one version out there. On that version, it doesn't quite sound like Richard, maybe more like Rick. Are my ears just going on does one of the CD versions of this song have someone besides Richard singing the intro/lead? I have read there are different recordings used in the film vs. album, so maybe that's it? (I can check the year/version of the CD set I have.)
Levon sings along with Richard on some verses, on some mixes his voice is clearer and on the same level as Richard's (unlike Rick who only accompanies him in the choirs). In the movie different mixes were used (the clearest is Don't Do It) but in the video I used the album version
I know he missed his cue to come in on the finale of the concert when everyone was on stage singing I Shall Be Released. He was drinking heavily then. They re-recorded his part days later. Perhaps they altered some of his work on other songs.
On this film footage, something strange is going on. Even though you can't see horn section players on the stage, you can hear their sound. A mic stand is set up in front of Robbie, but Thank God, I can't hear his frail voice.
I wish I had never found out that Robertson insisted on having a dead mic. Turns out he couldn't sing a lick. Great guitar player and songwriter though.
"I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse for the crime of having no dough now here I am back out on the street for the crime of having nowhere to go"
Great lyric imo.
Richard Manuel was a fucking genius!

Your cousin was a genius. I’ve been lucky enough to play with Terry, his brother, a number of times. Do you have a musical family there
RIP Richard. I know you were struggling around this time but I'm glad you found your voice again in your final years.
you should remove your ruthless comment and show respect. You really know chit.
I was sad tonight watching this for the hundreth time in my life. Richard is clearly almost drunk but his voice is fabulous. I was sad to hear Robbie passed. I still don't like him though. He lacked warmth and heart.
"Around this time"? Richard was zonked in 1970 on the Great Canadian Tour!
Drunk or not, Levon knew... he always said Richard was their true lead singer. That's a helluva a comment w/ Ricky and he himself, in the house.
You are sad that Robbie passed, but you don't like him, hm. Usually when you don't like someone you are neutral when they pass, but I will take you at your word.I think if you read different accounts or books you might view Robbie in a different light.

What a band ! Levon rolling those drums with that sneer on his face gives me chills and tears
Even a deteriorating Richard was better than most. I'm proud to share a birthday with this man.
I also share a birthday with him
Good to se them go out on top, at the height of their musicality....RIP Richard, Levon, Dank, and Robbie. Garth is the only one left...86 yrs old.

Watching a lot of The Band today. RIP Robbie. Such an amazing group of musicians. This is utterly brilliant...
Me too
Rick was a force !!!!!!!!
The Last Waltz is a must see, basically a concert/documentary.
Enormous talents...all of them. So sad it ended as it did for Richard. Love this song and his performance.
When you look back now ,the guy who edited the Last Waltz movie should have gotten some kind of recognition for editing excellence ! Completely brilliant .
Thelma Schoonmaker?
Is that correct ?
@@johncopeland3826 yeah man Martin Scorcece's editor since forever HELLLOOOOOOO actually wait she didn't edit this one lol it was two other dudes
how
in the world
do you get to heaven?
so many subtle gems like that in the lyrics these guys so deliciously delivered
RIP Richard, Rick & Levon!! and Robbie!!
And now Robbie….😢
I didn't know the could cut an . R&B groove. Great organ solo.
Richard Manuel sang with a lot of power.
I was a touring musician when this film was released . I had been touring constantly with a rock n roll band for three or four years on the same circuit.
The situation put me in a musical rut I could not get out of.
When I watched the Last Waltz , I was immediately rescued from that rut because watching my musical heroes brought to me immense inspiration.

So grateful. I mean just watch Robbie Robertson; his excitement is
CONTAGIOUS !

El inconfundible sello vocal de The Band en la batería, el gran Levon Helm. Siempre presente con su música.

I've read both Levon's book and Robbie's book and talk about different viewpoints!!!
3 of the greatest rock and roll singers in one one band 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Stunning
タッタタータ！タッタタータ！が、リズムが前向きで、心地いいです🎵
Ol Garth back there hammering out the organ and synth sounds for this song!
Jesus Christ these guys were phenomenal sooooo much talent and as tight as any band has ever been love the groove just wow
fantastic, listening for the first time
This is fantastic to hear and see. I loved these guys forever. Oh Levon, you were just a huge bundle of talent on any instrument you desired to play. Pure god given talent with all the members of the Band. God bless you all.
That beautiful voice ❤
Loved shows at the Winterland ❤
The best time of my life!!! The best of the Band!!!
This so good! Miss them all
Great Band.
Great band, great 🎶 🎵 ⏹️ 🪕 🎼 💿 🎶 🎵 ⏹️ ❤❤❤❤❤
Great song, great album. Great singing Richard
I will always love the Band eh! Miss them dearly
Thanks for this post! Every so often I'd come here and watch the movie clip, but was bugged that the song was incomplete, and by the intrusion of the Ronnie Hawkins intro seconds after the song ended. Glad to discover this.
Wow! The Last Waltz!
Sublime in every way!
Such a travesty that Scorcese had the camera operators adoring all of Robbie's hair flips instead of focusing in on Richard.
Richard's demise is just one of Rock's underappreciated, and least spoke about, tragedies.....
This is better than the album version.
Thank you so much for this, I never saw the whole thing before.
Awesome Talent love it!!
Interviewer: How many lead singers are there in "The Band?"
The Band: YES!
Three...Levon Helm, Rick Danko and Richard Manuel. They were hugely blessed.

Dude, it took place on November 25 & 26, 1976.
Love the Band.... Great song. Great movie.
Richaaaaard!
Dylan " made " The Band. after the touring and the " Big Pink " sessions, about a year later Dylan visited and they played a couple of these songs ... Dylan said " you wrote this ?" !!!
This is good for what ails you...
I saw them in Hialeah two days before he died.
Excellent job of merging the Bill Graham film with the Scorsese film!!! Many will not catch this. I did.
I don’t have a clue why he wasn’t more included in the Last Waltz. Both Rick and Levon said he was the lead singer in The Band
Love this!°
Go out yonder, peace in the valley
Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Has anybody seen my lady
This living alone will drive me crazy
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
I'm gonna go down by the water
But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no
I'll just be looking for my maker
And I hear that that's where she's been, oh
Out of nine lives, I spent seven
Now, how in the world do you get to Heaven
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
I just spent sixty days in the jailhouse
For the crime of having no dough
Now here I am back out on the street
For the crime of having nowhere to go
Save your neck or save your brother
Looks like it's one or the other
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Now two young kids might start a ruckus
You know they feel you trying to shuck us
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Nice groove.
Richard, clearly fucked up, just kills it. Talent wins out.
Vá lá fora, paz no vale
Venha para o centro, tem que fazer barulho no beco
Oh, você não sabe a forma em que estou
Alguém viu minha senhora
Esta vida sozinha vai me deixar louco
Oh, você não sabe a forma em que estou
eu vou descer pela água
Mas eu não vou pular, não, não
Eu só estarei procurando meu criador
E eu ouço que é onde ela esteve, oh
De nove vidas, passei sete
Agora, como no mundo você vai para o céu
Oh, você não sabe a forma em que estou
Acabei de passar sessenta dias na prisão
Pelo crime de não ter grana
Agora estou aqui de volta na rua
Pelo crime de não ter para onde ir
Salve seu pescoço ou salve seu irmão
Parece que é um ou outro
Oh, você não sabe a forma em que estou
Agora, duas crianças podem começar uma confusão
Você sabe que eles sentem que você está tentando nos enganar
Oh, você não sabe a forma em que estou
Go out yonder, peace in the valley
Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Has anybody seen my lady
This living alone will drive me crazy
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
I'm gonna go down by the water
But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no
I'll just be looking for my maker
And I hear that that's where she's been, oh
Out of nine lives, I spent seven
Now, how in the world do you get to Heaven
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
I just spent sixty days in the jailhouse
For the crime of having no dough
Now here I am back out on the street
For the crime of having nowhere to go
Save your neck or save your brother
Looks like it's one or the other
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Now two young kids might start a ruckus
You know they feel you trying to shuck us
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
They were something
Does anyone know where Richard got that cockeyed jacket?
Bob Vila was a hell of a singer and piano player in this video
Like the words, but, hard to dance to!
Enjoy
Richard Emmanuel died in Orlando, FL.
Not to pick, but "Manuel".

Who cares? He was the very best he could. Rockin up there with his bros.
Omg. The cocaine eyes are insane… by everyone on stage
how much can you say ? wow
I just want to break even 😂
Is no one going to talk about how high they are 😭
Why?
Richard's voice...like nothing before or since..he sounds at time like Levon, but different.
I've spent 7 too
On this film footage, something strange is going on. Even though you can't see horn section players on the stage, you can hear their sound. A mic stand is set up in front of Robbie, but Thank God, I can't hear his frail voice.
Yeah, I'm looking for the horn section too, supposedly Jim Gordon is in there, I'd love to see him playing something besides the drums , RIP 🙏
@@lorinelson7728It’s another Jim Gordon. Not the drummer
I wish I had never found out that Robertson insisted on having a dead mic. Turns out he couldn't sing a lick. Great guitar player and songwriter though.
Rick danko looks like a young deniro
robbie robertson at one point is mouthing "slow down."
Garthhhhhhhhh
was there ever a better band? not even close
If we need lights the music failed
Richard Manuel is dead
Who knows? Not you...
Love Richard's vocals!...what a waste of talent..
ロビー以外はみんないいな！(笑) なに年中叫んでるの？この男？ マイクがオフになっててよかったね～ ザ・バンドには必要だが、いつもながら鼻につくイヤな奴！
