Jam #2 - The Band - The Last Waltz

Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco, CA
1976-11-25
The Last Waltz (2002)
¡IMPORTANT!
If anyone thinks they have footage (audience or professional) or an audience recording that no one else has (or that I haven't published) and wants to make it public, they can contact me.
¡IMPORTANT!
In the second jam they play, from The Band, only Garth Hudson and Levon Helm (Richard Manuel and Robbie Robertson left after the first jam and Rick Danko did not play at any) and the guests who played were Neil Young, Ronnie Wood, Eric Clapton, Dr. John, Paul Butterfield and Ringo Starr as well as Stephen Stills and Carl Radle who played guitar and bass respectively. Also, at the end almost, there is someone at the organ with Dr. John who I do not know who he is
After this The Band returned to the stage to finish the concert with Don't Do It
What you see recorded was an extra from the 2002 DVD reissue of The Last Waltz.
35mm camera recordings:
0:00 / 10:08

close to almost 50 years,and we have some new footage,,,,,AMAZING,,,!

[@neil575]

Garth Hudson doesn't get much credit and is the least known member of The Band but he is the one behind most of the music composition. Amazing musician!!

[@hannejeppesen1809]

If you read Robbie's book you will find Robbie had great respect for Garth and thought the world of his talent. Garth was introverted, in a band with some strong personalites, Levon, Robbie and a couple of very good looking guys with a lot of charisma, Rick and Robbie.

[@scottgrzych7986]

Stephen Stills doing what he knows best, playing the blues better than just about anybody else.

[@aroe3896]

wow, Ronnie's slide sounds awesome. What a great way to entertain the crown and give The Band a breather before their encore. And that signature Niel Young stomp is a classic. Wish I'd seen him in concert. (I may have in Jacksonville AL in the 1970s with the Stills Young Band, but I don't have a visual memory of that show)

[@johncopeland3826]

Mr Garth Hudson on the organ .....peerless !

[@drohrstestes]

The Master himself.

[@ninjavigilante5311]

I love this outtake jus because of the great Carle radle having fun on bass being part of this historic moment.

[@listentothedead]

25 layers of music. try to think about what each person is playing, it's pretty crazy how deep this jam is.

GARTH HUDSON THE BEST MULTIORGANIST OF HISTORY ¡¡¡¡¡

[@tammylewis2408]

There was SO MUCH talent on that stage, the cameras almost had a meltdown @10:12

[@gordonmeeks2447]

Incredible. Incomparable.

Love my idol, Ringo Starr, working the groove, nice and laid-back

[@revolvershalashaskaocelot1656]

Some good Carl Radle footage.

[@ninjavigilante5311]

What a underrated awesome bassist he was.

[@hannejeppesen1809]

At 8:15 Robbie and his killer smile, just makes me melt. I read his book he was nervous and exhausted even before the concert started, but he pulled it off, and could still smile that late at night.

[@christianhaskins995]

Happily helping and letting Stills guest on his guitar too. Id be just as ecstatic/nervous handing any instrument to Stills, who can pretty much play anything.

[@travisdavid7606]

Amazing

[@colinwilliams553]

I love OUTTAKES from movies clips that didn't Make the final cut of film especially from the LAST WALTZ the greatest concert movie EVER.

[@nissi.k]

This is so fantastic! Thank you for sharing & putting this together so well & for your description notes! 🙌

[@orion3511]

It's actually some of the best stuff I've heard, both of them on the drums, Radle, Ronnie Woods slippery sliding with Butterfield holding fort, Neil jumpin about and then when Stills comes on he just takes charge with some of my favourite playing.. 👌

[@aroe3896]

I don't hear Butter that well, gonna have to re-listen

[@savethewest8784]

Kind of surprised to see this because I thought they were out of film!

[@devonknox8172]

neil young is coked out of his mind

[@stormbringercoming8105]

Yes. But nobody else, right? I’m sure backstage everyone else read bible scripture, drank milk and had consensual relations with their wives.

Stephen Stills

[@devonknox8172]

ringo does

[@danielmurphy8308]

Holy shit! Of course this didn't make the movie b/c Scorsese was charged with emphasizing RR. Look at Neil Young crushing it. Go boys. DMM PS: Ronnie Wood always said how tilted the movie was against the other Band members. This jam shows that.

[@harlanginsberg7269]

It wasn't only Ronnie Wood. All the other members of The Band felt the same way and talked about in books and interviews especially Helm. Did you notice in the beginning Robertson acting like grandmaster of the event. A really talented guy but an egotistical schmuck (he is part Jewish)

[@hannejeppesen1809]

Your last comment is anti semitic. Robbie was the one who set it up, it was his idea. Richard Manuel was not in good shape, Levon didn't like to be photograped. Give Robbie a break he was a genius.@@harlanginsberg7269

rare video of Carl Radle playing

Carle radle was the man too... very underrated.

[@roygavin8219]

Who is that in white playing the keyboard at around the 12min mark?

[@rcushen]

Richard Manual

[@JohnHaslam-nh8tn]

I wondered the same thing. He (or she?) is wearing a light colored shirt, sitting just behind Dr. John, who's taken residence on Garth's organ. Garth is on the grand piano, but it can't be Richard. The person's hair is totally wrong to be Richard. As somebody else said, most he and Ricky were enjoying themselves backstage w/ the likes of Van and Clapton. Wonder what folks like Ringo, Ronnie Wood, Stills or Neil remember of that part of the night. Sadly most are gone; you'd have to guess folks like Muddy, Pinetop and Bob Margolin might not have hung around. Or maybe the "bigtime" Hawk still has stories from then. Thanks for putting this together.

[@harlanginsberg7269]

@@JohnHaslam-nh8tn In the beginning you can very clearly see Manuel standing next to Dr John beginning to play piano. If he was partying with Danko he was late to the party.

Levon was having fun.. smoking a joint or cigarette like it's nothing playing amazing drums

is a left handed person playing a right handed drum set

[@mooglancashire424]

Ringo always played a right handed kit. He grew up when being left handed was seen as evil so he was made to be right handed.
