The Weight - Featuring Ringo Star - Playing for Change
I have watched this a few times and thought others might enjoy it, if you haven't seen it. Pretty good stuff.
I saw Robbie Robertson in a dive in Dallas TX, some 25 yrs ago. Great guitarist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph1GU1qQ1zQ . |

Thanks for posting. While I had seen it before, it is so special. Love it. Music can cure a lot of bad things. I do, however, miss me some Levon Helm. |
Listen To the Music
Playing For Change has some great songs.
One of my favorites.....The Doobies' "Listen to the Music" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4sK8d48Exs |
I didn't really discover "The Last Waltz" concert documentary by Scorsese, until a couple years ago or so for some reason, and I think I've watched it 5 or 6 times since.
There's also a fantastic documentary about "The Band" on Hulu called "Once Were Brothers". |
The studio version will never be surpassed, in large part due to the ethereal piano work and beautiful pauses, but this new version I have come to like as much as the one in Last Waltz with the great Mavis Staples. It's very well thought out and nuanced.

I remember watching this when it first came out. Lifted my spirits.
