His voice was phenomenal. No matter what age he was.

[@xanther97]

They got the tempo and rhythm right for this song. You can feel the music and also the emotion of the song.

[@granthurlburt4062]

What great Cajun music. Levon was a force. Saw him with his cousins in Edmonton. He was giving 100%, singing while drumming. Complete commitment

[@altheatoldme]

Love the Cajun spin they put on this bluegrass tune.

[@granthurlburt4062]

So did I. Gave it something special

[@custerranch]

Used to sing this as a Bluegrass song with my band 30 years ago, but this Cajun fiddle and rythym is so much better! Might have to revive it!

[@jorisvanhees851]

This is music, Grammy award winners on stage, excellent. What a pleasure to listen to.

[@alan4sure]

So much good music back when Levon and The Band were big. My youth.

[@greggtomchick1837]

One of the best things on youtube....RIP Levon....you made so many lives better!

[@thomassyverson7561]

A beautiful version of this classic standard. Has that high lonesome sound against superb instrumentals.

[@dominicfigueiredo2467]

That's a mean skill on the violin by Larry Campbell.

[@dannyleecountryyoutube]

Absolutely the best version of this song ever!!! Cannot get enough of it

[@uradragon]

It's probably what helped him through his battles with cancer.

[@user-kj2sy3dj7c]

Levon, the only American band member from the The Band, everybody else was Canadian.
