I use to listen to this song in my truck and my 9 year old daughter thought I was nuts. haha. . . But she’s 12 now and I took her to see Levon Helm when he came to Vancouver, and she ended up liking it. . although unfortunately Levon’s voice was shot. But Elvis Costello showed up and belted out a few tunes.
Anyway, I love these guys. . their music is ageless.
I’m one of two people at my High School that listens to The Band. Such a shame, they dont know what they are missing
Love this song
Laughed so hard, love these guys!!!
All of the music just sounds Brilliant!! And who but Helm could sing this like that? Wonderful. And with Danko on the violin I just want to cry —I miss all of the bank sooooo much At least I don’t have to be Jealous I have met with all of them :—)
RAG MAMA RAG
LOVE you guys. . . . . Blessing’s Peace, Love , LIGHT!
@bluesmahn Hey Bluesmahn,you are right. Paris 97. Fito is running the show now and I am sure he is doing it up great. I sure will miss the bear and everyone,they were good friends and the best white blues band that ever took the stage. John Lee Hooker said that. Sunflower could get on stage when he couldn’t talk and tear the house down. what a great bunch. I miss ‘em. yorbles
@yorbles Hey,I think I have some bad news. . I think the sunfrower passed away a few years ago. I was touring with a Lady named Alberta Adams and we stopped at a placed called Cosmic Piazza. . . I heard it there. He was playing with a band out there. I hit me hard. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . bluesmahn
@MrStartingGun they used to write songs called Rags,country Joe and the Fish had a song called “Feel like I’m fixin’ to die Rag. “Like in Ragtime,Got it?Get it. Good! P. S. to wingatewolf,They died. I think that the sunflower is still playing,but I would check. bye bye
@Philippinesisdabest
Yes, my favourite rock band of all ages ever!!! From México City, (B-p).
@Philippinesisdabest Im only 27 but my parents always listened to the band and other classics. I guess thats where my taste in music came from. What ever happened to Canned Heat?
I have to admit that despite loving this song, I am a bit confused about what it means. I don’t know why, it seems clearly sexual, but still.
Nevermind American Idol this is the real heart and soul of American Music. The Band are still well loved in England
All my vinyl’s in a box, the Brown BAND album among them.
God , I miss that outfit! They had it DOWN, man. . . . I’ma check with them karaoke folks and see if they have that album, make ‘em Get it if they don’t. I could ROCK doing RagMama Rag since none of those regulars have ever heard it. Tuba music? NoShit? You kiddin’ ,Right?
Thank you for posting their music, Brother. . . . from de boddum of me tiny little heart.
My tail had a lot of draggin’ back then. . . . Great memories
Oh, so good! Didn’t Ashton, Gardner and Dyke do a cover? Ressurection Shuffle was damn fine too!
180gram is quality and its hard to get new quality vinyl cheap now.
Love the tuba part!
They don’t make music like this anymore, and all the music at the original Woodstock sounds really good as well !
lets leave at it ‘the band’
This is the best ever, heard it first on John Peel on a sunday afternoon in 1970. Bought it when it was 100 in the charts at the time, still love it as much today.
classic tune with Robbie Robertson and the boys
have some of that
Ultimate party song for me. Great times back then.
Four decades of this. . . . as good now as it ever was in ‘69! “. . . bring that skinny little body back home!”
