The band being known as “the band” lasted 11 years (1967-1978) but you could argue that they lasted 20 if you include the time they were known as “the hawks” as well

U2 also.

hmmmI wonder if the beatles should have done this? lets ask ringo.

I think thr Beatles did share some writers money with Ringo and George. @@markusrose9667

Ego and money are a band's two biggest problems. We've all got enough ego let's at least share the money." Peter Buck

Ah,no.

Really sad, the audio that is missing from this video.

Manual, Danko and Helm were all addicts. Robbie lived a cleaner life and had enough of the BS.

We don't know how the contract for recording were written.The Songwriting credits were written as what? For instance, by contract Beatles songs, -' Yesterday' a McCartney song, is credited Lennon, and McCartney. "Don't Let Me Down" very Lennon. Credited to Lennon and McCartney. Led Zeppelin when writing their own material were better at Page, or Page and Plant. Or JPJ, Page , Plant No Quarter Page ,Plant Jones, Bonham Rock,nRoll - - - some thoughts.

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers avoided this problem by someone in production talking to the band and saying; ' Tom is getting a bigger cut because there is pressure on him to come up with songs.

Farewell Dear Robbie 💕

@@johncook30284 my dad was a huge Beatles fan so by proxy I'm a huge beetle fans too just listen to don't let me down that is totally John Lennon. Paul McCartney was the more whimsical guy of of the group that each of them added such a part to play.

Robbie, Robbie, Robbie.. No, they ALL were involved in writing the music and lyrics. Not lying Robbie. Robbie cheated everyone. What a loser. You are right about one thing.. Robbie CAN'T sing.

i love how they turned robbie’s mik so his vocals were secret

@@motherofbeagles8532 how was he a “jerk?”

You are totally out of line. Robbie is extremely talented, and he can sing very well. Get a life!

Robbie loved him some Robbie. That he chose to slow down or quit partying is admirable but he did it in a way that was just like the worst ex smoker becomes. And his documentary was the typical bio on the band. Yawn. Nothing that hasn’t been done to death a million times on other retrospectives on the band. Except the paycheck he got for it and to act self righteous about how lost everyone minus Garth were and he was just so damn indignant by talking about instances when it should never of been talked about while the others are long gone. Levon gave Robbie the stories of the south and then proceeded to act as though Levon contributed tide bits to the song. At least John Fogerty came up with the Bayou gimmick for CCR on his own and didn’t piggyback on another and in his case he should of been upset and pissed at the others in CCR. With Robbie he would bend Levon’s ear til he had what he needed then bowed out and said I’ve had enough. Then he refuses to reform with the band in 1983 because he was “ retired” according to him. Except he was Scorsese’s man I’m scoring music for his films a lot of the time and then makes a solo album and then goes on the lecture tour circuit and releases more music and retained most of the publishing from being the “ sole” songwriter . 🥴 And you wonder why Levon despised him for most of the last 45 years of his life. You want to be in pain listen to him tell stories. He was horrible at the lecture circuit. He had a way of speaking for 60 minutes and really not saying much but speaking for most of the hour. Universities that hosted him some have said he promised to stick to a certain guideline that people would be interested in only to go off in areas that were boring to musicians and fans alike and it was rarely well received even though he got a nice applause regardless only for fans to say what I just said here. He felt burned out at the time and walked away which is his right but by 1983 it had been 7 years by the time the Band reformed without him and with the exception of Garth he hadn’t even talked to the others since 1976 when the Last Waltz was shot and briefly in 1978 at the premiere for the movie. Brothers my azz. If he was so damned concerned for the others overall well being being at risk by 1976 he didn’t as far as anyone knows including his documentary try to reach out to his “ at risk brothers” and don’t even know if he attended Richard or Ricky’s funeral. 🦨

They were tired of the cold and snow. Drugs ended it, they were doing drugs in Woodstock, don't know that the location made a difference.

Please give me the footnote on the cold and the snow as a reason for leaving Big Pink and then give the the other footnote on why they came back home to Woodstock for decades and the rest of their lives in the cold and snow. 'They Once Were Brothers' written by Robbie Robertson who was the stepbrother of the Band suffered from narcissism and had to feed his disease in Holyweird! So, RR killed The Band! AND THE BAND PLAYED ON without him for decades... even in chilly weather. ,

As far as I can tell they also felt a change of scenery would do them good. Drugs were out of control, Bob Dylan had moved to LA. 4 Band members came back to Woodstock, Robbie stayed in LA. So Robbie wanted a different lifestyle nothing wrong with that, they did not take an oat being together for the rest of their lives. They were together for 16 years, more than most bands. Robbie did not kill the Band drugs did. Yes, thet played on and some of their concerts were good, but nobody were writing songs, at least not as prolific as Robbie Watch The Last Waltz and hear what Robbie is saying about being on the road and how it has killed many greats, Janice, Elvis, Hendrix, others. He was by his own admission more scared than the others. Read his book, and also Barney Hoskyns biography of The Band, he had become a caretaker of 3 heroin addicts, Levon, Richard and Rick, he had a young family and it was time for him to move on. When they wanted to tour without him, they had to get his permission which he gave, he didn't have to. He did some solo work and had Garth and Rick backed him up. Did he have an ego, he did, I would venture to say most rock stars probably do. He wrote some incredilbe songs, played killer guitar, was very good looking (I'm female he was gorgeous when young) charming and intelligent hard not to have an ego, but he is not the bad person many make him out to be. He does, however have many devoted fans. I love all of the Band members, I'm of that generation so I get the drug use, other than Robbie, Rick is my favorite, his singing can tear you heart out. He too was good looking with loadsof charisma.@@McMurphyKirby

@@hannejeppesen1809 Actually you just don't know. It wasn't the weather or drugs it was the ego of Robbie Robinson. His ego was the most illicit drug in the Band, the stepbrother, who was seeking all the glory. The Band played on for two more decades without RR and released a couple albums with a thousand concerts so that is proof that drugs ended nothing ... Robinson left the Band to pursue his ego in Hollywood. Thats how it ended for Robbie, but THE BAND PLAYED ON...my point is that your point is a LIE!

Sorry, I and many Robbie Robertson fans will disagree. Dealing with 3 heroin additcs is pretty heavy. Obviously you are not about to change your mind, nor am I going to change mind. Whatever happended keep in mind Robbie never said anything really bad or meanspiritied about his former band member, not in his book or in many interviews. Barney Hoskyns biograhpy of The Band is critical of Robbie, but fair. Rick Danko himself said in an interview he wanted to do something on his own. You call me a lier, I would venture to say you in your dislike for Robbie refuses to acknowledge the truth. It is available here on Utube and in books.@@McMurphyKirby

Who was running the forward progress and normal operations when others were struggling through their addictions? If only they all decided to be 5 equal partners before the addictions threatened to bring it all crashing down much sooner. Remember one was a father with a family to support and raise right? Whereas others were free to amuse themselves with more recreational self indulgent activities such as untethered drug use. Somebody had to keep the ship on course. Right? Have any of the haters had to try to talk rational business sense to addicts knee deep in the depths of their addictions?

Of course he wants the credit. He's a narcissist.

@@foreverwild9298 yeah what nerve to want credit for songs you wrote after listening to Levon talk about what it was like growing up in down south. They should have ditched Robbie earlier as they never needed him. Just look at all the great songs that Levon, Rick, Richard and Garth wrote for their solo albums and “The Band” in 80s and 90s. He was holding them back!
