Levon says "what about me?"

RIP Levon, Richard, Rick and now Robbie as well... I wish I grew up during the 60s and had a chance of seeing The Band live.

Be glad you didn't. You'd be old now. Like me.

@@lowellcalavera6045 Yeah, but we had the best music. I was in my twenties in the late sixties, living in Westport Ct. and later New York City (I came here from Denmark as an au pair to Westport) those were magical years. The music, parties,wouldn't trade it for anything.

You are the frickin' man! This song holds a very special place in my heart, thank you!

Great lesson on how to take this classic in a unique direction. Makes playing this more 🤩 🎉😊

Another great Friday lesson, man do I love the Band. It's going to be a fun weekend jamming all over this baby.

Gotta love Robbie ❤

Another reason I love Fridays, I get another dose of Haugenomics 👌

An interesting thing you do that I think is worth pointing out is that you tend to keep the melody in your arrangement on the second and third strings, tossing in the other strings as appropriate for color. After all, you could probably play the entire melody within the fifth position. But this way, the timbre of the "voice" remains consistent in ways that switching to and from the thicker and thinner strings wouldn't. Clever, but often left unspoken.

This is by far the best solo I have ever heard for this song. I'm going to try to learn as much as I can and apply it to my band. Great video and thank you!

Beautiful playing and great lesson as always, Eric! In addition to the wonderful Robbie Robertson recently joining The Great Gig In The Sky, just a few weeks ago an episode on this song was released in the outstanding podcast series, A History Of Rock Music In 500 Songs. I highly recommend this podcast to any and all fans of rock music. It's superb.

Appropriate that this song turned me on to you and your teaching. Well done. RIP Robbie. I appreciate the cools things you left us to listen to.

Even the briefest appearance of that old Goya makes me happy. Fantastic lesson!

THANK YOU.

6:12 WORD (and thank you for another superb video on The Band, a new joint personal favorite along with "Hendrix Doublestops on "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down": R&B Guitar Lesson").

Epic tune. Awesome arrangement....and I picked up pointers to try to retain until tomorrow! Thank YOU!

Fantastic arrangement & lesson. Thank you for sharing with us!

Sensational arrangement. Enjoying playing along at home

Love this tune, great job with it. Also, loving the Supro on a suitcase in the background. Nice set dressing, really fits the vibe.

Incredible, yet again Mr. Haugen👏🏽👏🏽

Thanks!

You make it look so easy tiger... another great lesson on a great song.

Man, I wish you were my neighbor, lol. Seem a genuinely good human being + damned good guitar player. Love your channel, man. Side note... I now have two mustangs and a duosonic, largely thanks to your inspiration.

The bridge pickup on my mustang actually has a really unique "dark twang" to it - perfect for coppin' Levon's voice!

Wow, listening with headphones. Sounds beautiful!!!

Great arrangment Eric, I just downloaded the tab from your website to give it a shot. Its gonna keep me busy today!

Been ill for a month or so, didn’t know Robertson had died til now, Jesus, the band are one of the best things me n my father bond over n altho maybe RR was coloured as the villain from time to time it’s undoubtedly true that without him we wouldn’t halve a good number of the finest music the last century gave us. Eeeeeessh can’t believe my dad hadn’t mentioned it to me, very odd, rest in piece RR

This is a really nice arrangement. Great job!

Thank you, Eric! Great song, and a fitting tribute to one of the greats. Also a good lesson. Fun to see how music ties together in its similarities. Be good to you 🍕

Great song. RIP Robbie. Thanks for the video! It’s great to learn some more about a tune I’ve played for years. Happy Friday. 🍕

Fine stuff, as always. Thanks, Eric!

Thank you, Eric! ✌️😌🎸

Great song and licks 👍

Love the arrangement thanks for the chart and track on patreon!

Excellent Tribute to a Legend 🤟

Nice . Me and my dad jam to this song.

I know you love the "finish" on your Mustang, Eric, but whenever I see it I want it to be the original Oly White because those were my favorite Mustangs, although goddamn it, I've never had one.

A peaceful man, he is missed.

Can you do Monday by Wilco pleeasseee

Woah tasty playing

Yeah, man!

Can you do Monday by Wilco

I"ll add it to my list!

Oh, I was waiting for an Eric great melodic solo with the pedal steel sliding 'guitar' ... broke my heart not to have one... loved the arrangement though !

I now have Puff the Magic Dragon going around my head on a loop. Time for wine.

I was lloking at your gear used on the home page and couldn't find the amp from this video. Wondering if its a 8,10,12 or 15 inch model?

It's the 10!

Just curious…why the choice of the Mustang rather than a strat or a tele?

The bridge pickup on my mustang has a really cool "dark twang" to it - perfect for copping Levon Helm's voice!

Coincidence, I watched the Once Were Brothers documentary on Sunday evening, recommended for any The Band fans and musicians in general.
