Robbie Robertson is his name.

You can definitely feel it!

Not to mention the months they spent in a basement recording songs together after that tour. Man, I wish they'd put Basement Tapes on YT..

:)

Pop Staples doing The Weight tips the scales in my favour the most... but Muddy Waters' Mannish Boy is bloody close.. not bad for a buncha old fogies tryin to stay out of the rest home huh.

@@JuandeFucaU The Mannish Boy moment was almost missed. All the camera crews except Albert Maysels were taking a break when Muddy started Mannish Boy. Fortunately, Maysels was rolling, that is why almost the whole song is from that one angle, the second camera only comes on in the last couple of moments.

@@bobschenkel7921 that was a helluva coffee break huh..... Raging Bull.... Close Encounters.... and Easy Rider..... putting their cameras down for some caffeine instead.

Shoutout to Muddy Waters!

@@bobschenkel7921 Bob Schenkel is correct. Not only were crew breaking, they DID NOT know who Muddy was. They thought some unknown nondescript older black guy had somehow gotten on stage..

Last Waltz is the best!

One of my favorite moments from the concert film.

Thanks for suggesting this Tim! It was great to see!

That's how you know you're good right there! They didn't miss a beat!

Maybe not hundreds of times.. But he did play it with THE BAND 14 times on the 66 tour. Altogether Bob performed this song 22 times. First in 1965 last in 1989. It’s a traditional song brought to Dylan’s Attention by folk singer/songwriter Eric Von Schmidt.

Sounds like a good time!

The Last Waltz is from '76. I may be wrong, but I believe Bob had his conversion experience around '78. The hat still abides.

Lol the hat always abides

This appearance predates his born again Christian period by 3 years. Dylan looks kind of sleazy here, with the long hair and the pimp's hat.

Every single step!

They are the best!

Sounds like a great time!

reminds me of the time I told my wife's best friend that Rod Stewart (she was seriously in love with Rod) didn't write "Downtown Train". she hated my all-time fav Tom Waits. you know when people suffer tragic loss... they go through all those stages... denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and finally acceptance... she never got to that last part.

The infamous "Judas" concert, along with some backstage footage from that 1966 tour, is in the documentary "No Direction Home" (Scorsese). You can find that "scene" here on YT.

Amazing! Thanks for the info!

Indeed! Thanks for watching Michael!

Sounds like a great place dir a show! Thanks Bob!

It's not often you can see chemistry visually, but theirs really shines through!

The Grateful dead movie was filmed there also

Sounds great! Shoutout to Canada!

Definitely an acquired taste, but we appreciate him regardless!

Awesome!

Thank you!

You said it Eveleen!

Yep!

Thanks for the info Sean!

We'll have the time eventually!

Is that the one where he went electric?

@@SightAfterDark No, a few years earlier. Their are several, there is one where the young Judy Collins is sitting at the side of the stage, and her face says it all. The electric Bob was him reinventing himself and offendimg the likes of Pete Seeger. These songs you are reacting to are sone of his most simplistic, that the Band can improvise around without messing up a subtle message.

😆thanks for the info!

Thank you!

Nicee! Thanks Robert!

For sure!

Suggest it on our Patreon!

Fantastic lyrics!

😆thanks for the info!

😆

Lol thanks John. Glad you’re enjoying the videos!

Well, them....and perhaps Mike Bloomfield. You don't think Bob would have found some other group of electric players? He could have been the singer for a new outfit called Led Zeppelin. I'd pay to see that.

Don't you mean the New Yardbirds ;)

@@SightAfterDark Huh?

Not exactly. Dylan made the decision to go electric all by himself, and did so on Bringing It All Back Home. None of The Band members were on that album. When he decided to go electric on stage at Newport in ‘65 it was with members of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. Some members of The Band were brought in for the next few US dates and the full Band was finally on board for the ‘66 tour. But the decision to go electric was all Dylan’s, before he had even met The Band. In fact, they were recruited by him specifically for that purpose.

@@keef7224 oh ok.

I think Bobs a perfectionist but expects you to be able to play what he wants without his input. He's notoriously hard to play with. That's why you catch his band watching what he's doing on his guitar, they never know where he's gonna go. After awhile even The Band couldn't deal with Bob.

NO, the Band WAS NOT Bob's backup band for years. They went on his first electric tour as his backing band. They were already a band, and originally were Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks, the Hawks being Ronnie's backing band. It's a terrible misnomer to say they were just Bob's backing band. And they only toured as his backing band the one time, though they teamed up years later for another tour billed as The Band and Bob Dylan.

@@denroy3 Perhaps you misunderstood my original comment. I never said The Band was only Bob Dylan's backup band. Of course they were Ronnie Hawkins backup band also as Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks. But even then they were a backup band to another artist. Then they backed up Dylan on his first electric tour which was a pivotal tour for Dylan. But they also played on the Basement Tapes behind Dylan. And they played with Dylan in 78 on the tour that basically brought Dylan out of a long period of seclusion and back into performing live much more often. Before that tour in 78 Dylan was very rarely seen live if it all and for many of his fans like myself it was as if it was the second coming. So that was a major event in Dylan's career and again The Band was there to back him up. And then Dylan also played at The Last which was a pivotal event for The Band since it was basically their Swan Song. I guess what I was trying to say was that even though The Band released many major albums on their own like Music From Big Pink they were intimately involved in Dylan's music at pivotal times in his career. Don't get me wrong I think The Band on their own albums was one of the greatest bands ever and also a major influence on music aside from their association with Dylan. But it is important to understand how they were connected to Dylan at some of the most pivotal points in his career. Besides their own albums one of their greatest strengths as a live band was their ability to backup a diverse range of performers as is brilliantly demonstrated in Martin Scorsese"s film The Last Waltz. I saw Dylan with the band on that tour in 78 and they were probably the only band in the world that would have been able to play backup to a Legend like Dylan and make it work.

LOL
