Brilliant performance by Levon Helm on the drums and being the lead singer. I love this song.

    The Weight is such a good song, and probably their most well known. I’m gonna check out Van Morrison’s Moondance album, I’m getting older and just now really getting into classic rock. I love the video for Sympathy for the Devil as well I’ve been watching that a bunch lately. Also the Eagles. Whoa.

      I’ve never really given the Stones the time of day, but the same was true about the Beatles a while back and now they’re one of my favorites - so maybe it’s time to give the Rolling Stones a chance one of these days (that whole rivalry between fans of the two bands is just silly nonsense of course).

            Right! he’s unreal, and so skinny, it’s no wonder he’s still alive after all those years of partying. But yeah the way he moves around is unique for sure.
