Featuring three greatly loved artists round these ere parts, this a glorious piece of film from the green room of the Chicago Civic Opera House in 2012 as they rehearse the encore they are about to perform. It feels joyous and spontaneous, it is everything music should be. Great song, great musicians and a real sense of a shared experience. Enjoy.

I have heard worse versions of “The Weight” done by other bands who are classed as well worth a listen This “rehearsal” is so full of life and fun I will listen to it again and again.

Pleasure. It’s wonderful isn’t it.
