- A clip from the first All Starr Tour, with Levon Helm performing "Up On Cripple Creek" with Ringo Starr, Clarence Clemons, Rick Danko, Dr. John, Jim Keltner, Nils Lofgren, Bill Preston and Joe Walsh at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. Of that first All Starr Band Ringo said "it was more of an orchestra than a band and the first time I would tour on my own. I called everyone I knew and they all said yes!"

Levon Helm was the only person in the world that could sing this song right.
Randy W. He carried his accent to his singing voice.
Randy W. Amen.
He makes me proud to be from Arkansas
And Rick Danko's backing vocals are unsurpassable! Look at him, having a great time :D
AMEN!
When Ringo called it his ALL STARR BAND he wasn't joking. Now that's what I call a stage full of talent!!! I am so sorry I never got to see them.
Levon was one of the greatest performers in the history of rock & roll.
Agreed. As a drummer, I love his loose playing style and deep grooves. Always playing for the song, singing always changes a playing style but Levin did it in a way that looked effortless.
I have never considered Levon to be a R&R Drummer. He is a contemporary C & W performer in my mind.
Damn straight
Ringo assembled some of the best super groups of all time. What a lineup, ridiculous wealth of talent!
For sure
Levon looks like he had a kickass model train collection.
You nailed it
Do you think it would rival Neil Young's?
@@mcburnski Neil probably has a decent one.
@@mcaddicts he bored me to tears talking about it in hiis autobiography!
i thought this was a burn calling him autistic lol
Ringo and Levon are the two famous drummers (deservedly so) but the third drummer, Mr. Jim Keltner of Tulsa, Oklahoma is a legend in his own right.
Don't you ever say the name fucking Ringo when you say Levon.
@@eighmanauraview Levon thought enough of Ringo to play in Ringo's All Star Band so why shouldn't their names be mentioned together? If you're just making the case that Levon was a superior musician compared to Ringo - I agree.
One of the "BIG 5 " from Tulsa.
@@eighmanauraview😂😂 that’s funny as hell!!! I’m much bigger Levon Helm fan than Ringo. I used to give Ringo endless amounts of shit about his drumming when I was younger and in my punk metal phase. I didn’t like the Beatles in high school b/c my drunk girlfriends would endlessly play Rocky raccoon. I still hate that song. I’m thought ringo was an over rated shitty slow drummer no chops. I later came to appreciate his drumming talents. Crazy amount of drumming talent on one stage . Jim Keltner, Levon, Ringo!!!! Rip Levon and Rick miss you boys!!!
@@mattryan6886 Paul McCartney responding to the question of if Ringo is the best drummer in the world: “He’s not even the best drummer in the Beatles.”
Levon, Rick, Dr. John, and Billy all gone and missed.
Especially by the bartenders
Clarence too.
RIP Levon, we still miss you!
Joe Walsh & Nils Lofgren on Guitar
Neil young
Quite possibly one of the better lineups Ringo's ever had.
The best by far
It's a shame hes been with the same people for maybe 10 years or more. No comparison to these early shows.
I think the best line-up he's ever had.
He was in the beatles guys. He had lennon/ Harrison as his guitar players and paul macartnye played bass for him haha
Ringo knows how to put together a band.
Unfortunately can’t drum worth shit
@@7979man pretty sure all your favorite drummers would disagree
I truly think that Levon and Rick were the same person playing different instruments. The chemistry between them is undeniable and incredible.
and today the so called music we are left with is so terrible I can't stand it. thank God for some real music like this
this lineup is insane
Levon is so cool...
What a goddamn lineup!
I was lucky because I was there. Hard to believe that half of them are now gone.
The story went, Ringo asked everyone he could think of, and they all said yes. What a band!!!
Levon - the only drummer that can make you cry.
This must have been a fabulous tour organized by Ringo Starr. Oh, but to be a fly on the wall !! This time frame was several years before his throat cancer diagnosis. The point being during this time period Levon was still in full control of his "gift". Hard to believe that was 28 years ago. You're with the heavenly choir now Levon. RIP
i seen this show at Great Woods in Massachusetts, I'll never forget
Now that’s an ALLSTAR band! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Levon and rick, my two favorites from the band! Having the time of their life. God bless them and may they Rest In Peace
Levon taking no prisoners!
And not one flammed snare sound from any those drummers. Pocket to the max. Great performance.
Very intelligent comment.
Was lucky enough to see this lineup 4 times. I'd give anything to go back. Rest in Peace Gentlemen.
No other trio could pull off 3 drummers. Simply amazing.
I went to this concert when they were in Indianapolis Indiana. My friend and I met Levon Helm and got his autograph. He was a great guy. A great concert and memory. 😀❤
Too cool. 😎🎶
That’s awesome 🙏🏻
I met Amy Helm after a Levon concert [actually a small club date]. She loved her dad VERY much.
Hearing Levon voice always makes me relax and cry at the same time.
RIP Levon.
Check the lineup and those couple of shots of Jim Keltner. It was three drummers together! Of course it helps it was three of the world's greatest drummers...
This lineup of musicians is simply incredible.
Levon wuz the real f•kn deal
Yes. He was. Long live Levon!
OMG this line up!!! Ringo has a really good thing going with his All Starr band. Nothing but legends! He lets the legends shine with their own works, they play the hits and everyone goes home really happy.
Nearly every time an amazing lineup takes place, Jim Keltner is there. The most unknown, yet accomplished drummer around I reckon. His Christmas card list must read like a who's who in music! I saw him with Little Village. Remember them?
Levon and Ringo are the drummers here? What has Jim Keltner got to do with this clip?
@@ianowens1577, there are three drummers on stage. Keltner doesn't get much camera time, aside from a few select shots, but he has just as much to do with this clip as any of the other musicians performing.
Yep.
Ringo gets by with a lot of help from his friends!
Yeah, he needs it bad
I like the way Levon is playing the 60's Ringo Ludwig drum kit.
My friend Ringo. Gonna miss you when you are gone. Good job man.
How in the hell could one sing and play drums at the same time. Amazing
Levon could pull off the amazing effortlessly!
There's a video where Levon talks about it. Levon Helm - On Singing While Drumming. Enjoy! :)
I do not think anyone else has come close.
@@martinmolloy5876 What about Don Henley from the Eagles?
@@juhisheljaste not much of an Eagles fan to be honest. I think Levon was the Master
Wow! So much GREATNESS on one stage at one moment in time! Thanks Ringo for all the hard work putting the 89 All Star Band (and all others) together!
Watching Ringo just be a guy in the band made me smile. He got to beat the drums and it was freedom. I saw a man who wanted to be there.
Certainly an all star line up. What a band.
This place must have been jumping this night. What a great line up. So much talent on that stage it’s hard to take in. Greatness from Levon all the way to Billy Preston this is just awesome.
Three of the best meat 'n potatoes rock drummers - three guys who played a part in INVENTING meat 'n potatoes rock drumming - up there on the same stage!
And i can see why Ringo called Levon and Rick: The Band were one of the ten or so best straight-up ensemble groups of the Sixties/Seventies, along with The Beatles, Booker T + the MGs, and the great studio bands - and now, Ringo got to play with The Band as well!
I caught this tour at Jones Beach, Great stuff, Moments of my life I'll forever cherish. Rick & Levon, Joe Walsh sang an acoustic version of Desperado and said he loved playing it cause it pissed Henley off. Clarence & Billy both gone, Classic tunes by Billy and the duet of You're A Friend Of Mine. Just beautiful all around!
FretsmanRFS alsome video
Levon is UNIQUE. Period.
Could there be any greater pleasure in life than seeing these legends of their craft on stage together? Music surely must be the best thing in life and these men are some of the best at playing it.
The Beatles E-Street Eagles Band. Truly an All-Star band. Pure joy.
It's a pity Garth was not part of the cast of players ! A genius who could play 3 different melodies on 3 different instruments ...all at once . Do you know why ? Because it was easy for him to do so ! No sweat whatsoever .
This stuff is great! We won't see anything like this again!! Never!
For sure,stacked with talent.
Jesus, what a lineup of talent.
Garden State Arts Center ....loved it
Levon. You made the Band. xoxoxox
This is amazing.
+colnago1mc 'He lived in Woodstock Ny near where I grew up and for years he would old jam sessions at his barn that he did on friday nights and locals would go over and see who would show up to jam with him. Many great artists would show up for the jams. They were so popular he would have to sell tickets to keep the number of people manageable . Was a great local guy who was just a normal guy around town .
Levon was my neighbor in Woodstock. Small world.
@@ethanrocket123 And I bet you did not know. Brian Jessy was living across the street for a summer! Amazing singer songwriter. I tried to connect him with Levon. But it never worked out. That would have been very special!
A collection of masters performing a classic song. Only a few of these performance are still with us --- who will be the masters of today?
I miss Levon Helm
Levon's just in a different dimension right now and his spirit will always be in this realm as long as his music is played.
If I ever did see one...
My soul mate...we never met. BUT
My god I hope that when my time comes levon is there to dip a donut in my tea.
What a talent. What a soul
Never saw this one! Levon still sounds amazing here!
i love you ringo starr
What a band, Billy Preston, Dr John, Joe Walsh
The 20 people who disliked this must be rap fans.
Thank you, RINGO!! We love you!!!
Sad that four Bieber fans thumbed this down... maybe someday they'll appreciate REAL music
When you have the musical mind of a second grader, his fans are challenged
@@debrayundt9732 Why are you making this about Justin Bieber and what does he have to do with this video? Do you know anything bout The Band? Obviously not. You've turned this excellent video into personal hate against someone who has nothing to do with it. Grow up.
Why the fuck is anyone turning such an excellent performance by Levon and friends into a hate on Justin Bieber?
@@debrayundt9732 Well then you should be further ashamed of yourself for making such an idiotic "joke" about one of Stratford's biggest success stories. The video is meant to showcase two members of The Band, but rather than comment on that, you chose to jump on the bandwagon of anti-Bieberism. Your comment had absolutely nothiing to do with acknowledging the "amazing talent" that Stratford has produced. Shame on you.
@@debrayundt9732 The video is about celebratratiing beautiful music by some great performers. Your comment had nothing to do that. Watch the video, enjoy the music and learn from the positive vibes Levon and company give off.
Sounds great with guitar solos on it too. Great version
So amazing!
I was fortunate enough to see them here on September 3 89. First of 2 tours. First sober concert in over 15 years. Was a wonderful night
whole lotta ROYALTY on this stage truly timeless bellezza
Man, I miss this. Helm, Danko et al, Keltner, one of the best skin thrashers ever, and of course RS, Dayam, wotta line up & crew.
I NEED the whole video from this concert. You hardly ever see concert footage of this quality from then, especially with this good of a lineup
Been available on DVD for many years, one of the best. Search for ‘live at the Greek theatre’. Enjoy.
Great stuff !
A room full of legends! Amazing !
Awesome!
Really amazing!!!! Really ALL Star
Levon.
Fantastic! What a band!
Awesome! My favs☮️❤️
DAMN!! this is great
Look at Rick having the time of his life.
I LOVE RICK
The guy looks drunker than shit
@@fanmaxis3004 I reckon Rick just liked to drink and perform and nobody could take one away without the other. Go Rick!
Unmistakable vocals.
two of my fav,,drummers..great vid,,
I attended this tour...and many others. Thank you Ringo for sharing talent and memories for so many years.... P&L ✌
So good
Awesome music
Amazing grace!
Ralph Macchio really played that well!
What a band!! Crazy how good this is!
This is my all time favourite song after I heard my dad playing it when I was a teenager , and what a version this is . Levon , you are a Legend, RIP .
Alot of drummers don't realize that Keltner is the most successful session/studio player in history....much respect!!
DrUmRbOy67 really, I thought it was Hal Blaine (RIP)
Hal Blaine contributed to 10,000 pop recordings over tge course of his life. It would be hard to say who was most successful. I won't quibble. They are both incredible.
Magic. Top class. X
Saw this lineup in Dallas. Great show! Great music!
Thank you!🙌
Pretty dammed good,what a great line up WOW!
This is the band I saw at the Kingston Fair grounds in New Hampshire a long time ago..
Levon was absolutely killing it here! Sounds so good with this lineup too. Anyone notice how he changed the lyrics up a bit?
all that talent on one stage, wow
So much swing in the drums on this song. But with these great drummers it’s no wonder!
All these enlightened people bring tears to my eyes
Legends. A whole stage of Legends. Absolutely killing it.
You're bands always were great as they were ! I saw you last time in Vienna and...GREAT GREAT GREAT !
I look back at some of the videos and dam near cry everytime. When I was really depressed time in my life I would watch Levon videos for hours. 100% got me thru some tough times.
Great line up!!
Rick and Levon....😢
Just came across this today. Wow. I was at this show. One of the greatest shows ever. Ringo lead a few songs, then everyone took a turn leading a song or two. Ringo closed out the first set and later the show with a few of his hits. I wish I could see the whole show on video. So many awesome tunes by this amazing line up.
Lol @ Lake Charles, Louisiana is where I live. But did live in the UK and loved it. Thankyou Dingo for bidding this one. ❤you.
Love,love,love this
