[@gregshamieh6339]

I woke up one morning, and tuned in Don Imus's MSNBC show on the TV. He had Levon on, and after the set wrapped up, Don said, "If you don't do nothing else in your life, go get a ticket to Levon's Midnight Ramble, which is a concert and Jam Session held every Saturday night at Levon's Home and studio in Woodstock, NY. You'll always be glad you did." So I went right out, bought two tickets, and drove up there from Maryland to celebrate my wedding anniversary with my wife. It was one of the highlights of my musical life. Got to talk to Levon, shake his hand and thank him for all the joy he'd brought to my life. He was just the nicest man you can imagine. And Imus was right, I am still glad I did. ;-)

[@mandoza99]

What a way to celebrate ur anniversary, congrats !and I'm sooo fkn jealous

[@cmielnicc1929]

I love The Weight, but Levon's performance of The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down from The Last Waltz is unforgettable to this day. For me, it's one of the greatest performances from any artist ever. Miss him sooo much. His voice was a gift from Heaven.

[@arjankoeslag9483]

For me, Levon Helm is one of the all-time great musicians. Besides his phenomenal drum skills combined with his soulfull Southern voice, he brought music that touched the heart directly. So pure, enlightening, fragile and powerful at the same time. Levon Helm brought real life to the stage with his music in a humble way and full of gentleness. The joy for the music and letting the other band members excel. All that was Levon at his very best. Thank you Levon of what you gave me and the world. You are a jewel that I will cherish forever.

I skipped school in the 11th grade and rode to St. Louis with an older friend of mine to see them at the Keil Auditorium in 1970, so I'm thinking the same tour.

I am so glad I was able to see Levon Helm one time before he died. I saw the Levon Helm Band in Toronto about 8 or 9 months before he passed away. Levon only sang lead on 2 or 3 songs, but Ophelia was worth the price of admission and then some--a true legend. RIP Levon YOU ARE MISSED!

[@MrWallybones]

Thinking of the band and their music makes me want to cry. To see Levon with people like James Taylor, Emmy Lou, Sheryl, Jacob makes me happy in a sad way if that makes any sense. "The Band" was so incredible on so many levels no words can explain.

[@mattburns1d3]

I'm amazed the stage didn't collapse under the sheer weight of all that talent. And for all those trying to get to the bottom of the Levon - Robbie fight....I don't know, man, let it go. You have two people with their own versions of the story. Let the music speak for itself.

[@sartainja]

Robbie’s name is on it as the writer. He needed to share it with the others - Levon, Garth, Rick, and Richard, his musical brothers because with them, the song would never have come to be.

[@tyrapp262]

@sandalssuck no one agrees with lavons story except the robbie haters.

[@tyrapp262]

@sandalssuck why would Rob want to revisit gigging in run down hotels again when he could be writing scores for movies?

[@DanFan2042]

I think it was about money and writing credits. For talented men it's not easy to reconcile. I read that Robbie went to see him in the hospital before he passed. I hope they made some sort of peace with each other.

Heres to Robbie Robertson, the fellow who wrote this amazing song along with much else the original Band is now famous for. His last time doing this song was for The Last Waltz performance in 75 along with the Staple Singers. Now that was a show.

[@kevinmorin7965]

Yeah, right and where's Robbie's follow-on hits? The Band wrote the song- together and Robertson claimed the credits- but he's a thief of their efforts proven by his lack of ever leading any group - writing any further hits or producing anything resembling The Band's songs.
