The sound and energy of this version of “baby let me follow you down” is so reminiscent of Dylan’s 1966 electric tour with the band it’s uncompromising loud and raw some proper rock n roll

The Band got their start as the Hawks as in; Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks. When Bob Dylan went from Acoustic Folk to "electric", the Hawks changed their to The Band and toured and recorded with Dylan for two Albums.

Dylan is reported to have said, while watching one of his children sleeping, the song Forever Young came to him. A hymn hoping for his children’s future.

One of the reasons this film and concert are so great is that The BAND is just leaving it all out there on the stage. Robbie Robertson, Rick Danko, Levon Helm, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson just letting go and playing till the end. And Mr. Bob Dylan is standing back and letting them do it. For something that is equally great you should do the Muddy Waters song "Mannish Boy". Muddy's real name is McKinley Morganfield, and he is, was, a real Delta, then Chicago Bluesman.

I love "Forever Young". I love to play it to and it's been in my setlist when I play out for 50 years now! It also has a personal connection. I stopped playing it for a year in 2005 when my partner of almost twenty years passed away. I couldn't sing it without choking up because I used to sing it to her at home. Actually in that period I also had to take two other Dylan songs out of my setlist, "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" and "Lay Lady Lay" for the same reason. "Lay Lady Lay" was especially hard because we actually bought a king size brass bed and the first thing I did when we got it home was to pull out my guitar, sit on the bed and sing it to her. "Baby Let Me Follow You Down" is another great one, and that one I've been playing for over 50 years! I actually happened to run through it earlier tonight when I was practicing, though I do the acoustic folk version from his very first album, but I loved this rock version too. Another excellent Dylan concert appearance on film is in "The Concert for Bangladesh". I very much enjoyed your reaction to this one.

This song will always remind me of my mom who passed in 2009. “May your heart always be joyful, may your song always be sung.” We’re still singing your song Mom. ❤️

Baby Let Me Follow you Down, is an old blues song that Dylan picked up from Eric Von Schmidt. It was also the first single by the Animals (retitled as "Baby Let Me Take you Home"). Interestingly enough, the Animals next single was also a song from Dylans first album, "House Of The Rising Sun".

Bob started as part of the folk revival in the early 60's. He was known for "protest songs", just him strumming his guitar punctuated with harmonica. When he performed at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965 he was backed by rock musicians. This didn't go over well with the folk purists who accused him of selling out. But he was determined to go his own creative way and doing so added many extra dimensions to his music. He concluded his set at Newport with "Like A Rolling Stone" and as the song starts you can hear him say "Play it fu**in' loud!" After that he began touring with The Hawks and the rest is history

Dylan always did whatever he wanted: change the melody of his old songs, add lyrics, and not play songs he was tired of playing. The Band could shift with him to another song, and he knew it. The outstanding Muddy Waters does an excellent job of his classic Mannish Boy, and you'd love it.
@AKR88105 ай бұрын
It seems to me that while this concert was being filmed, Bob Dylan wanted to spontaneously transition into the second song and signaled The Band. The Band are such great musicians and so professional that they easily adjusted. Lots of great songs and performances in this concert. I would recommend The Bands own song called It Makes No Difference. Great reaction and it's always enjoyable to watch your reactions.

For someone not generally considered a great vocalist, Dylan really has changed his voice over the years. I think he is underappreciates in that regard.

Right before they start the second song, there's a close up of Rick and Robbie, Rick is smiling, Robbie looks serious, and tired. The Last Waltz was Robbie's idea and as always he carried the heaviest burden. Barney Hoskyns wrote in his biography of The Band, if 16 years on the road didn't kill Robbie Robertson The Last Waltz might. Robbie wrote in his book, a few hours before the concert started he went back to his hotel, trying to get some sleep, realizing he had been exsisting on drugs rather than sleep and good nutrition. He found sleep impossible, despite all the stuff going on and all the people around he felt very much alone. He took a cold shower, his wife brought him some food, and off he went to the concert. Fortunately adreline is a powerful drug as is coke, as we all can see in The Last Waltz.

Bob didn't like to plan things... if you notice they are talking at the end of the first song probably deciding on which song to do next.

Just for reference, you might want to hear/react to the 1962 version of Baby Let Me Follow You Down from the debut album: Bob Dylan. I enjoyed this, but i still love hearing Bob's solo version. Keep up the good work, and thanks -

The Last Waltz is one of the greatest concert films ever made, but it’s also bittersweet and symbolically marks the end of an era for many of the performers on that stage. As any fan of the Band will ask, did Robbie really have to end the group? Some could see the whole project as Robbie’s vanity project.
