The opening organ riff to Chest Fever still gives me chills 55 yrs later
I miss those Heavy organ riffs from back in the day. Vanilla Fudge Keep Me Hangin On, Zep your time is gonna come and of course, who could forget Watcher of the Skies, I'm sure I've missed a few. Classic stuff
i found a copy of this record in 1985 when i was 15 years old ...and at that point i was listening to hendrix, cream, quicksilver messenger service , the who etc , while my school friends were listening to speed metal and butt rock . i was teaching myself how to play guitar by listening carefully and playing along, but when i sat down and listened to this album, it was a big turning point in my eventual decision to become a songwriter and pursue music professionally . about a year ago , robbie gave one of my comments about ricky danko a "like" and i got the chance to return to him my humble thanks for this work of art and related its value to me and how my life was changed and influenced by it. so, as a musician, a canadian ..and a human being , thank you mr robertson .., your musical spirit and love will never be forgotten ; may the raven guide you to the elders and the eternal place xo
What is butt rock? 😵💫
raised on Dylan and ,,,,the Band. immensely powerful, rich and amazingly original and heartfelt music with no real national origin,,, just inspired heads collaborating in a zone never to be repeated.

One of my fave albums of all time.
Robbie Robertson, thank you for your gift of music. Music from Big Pink has always been my favorite.
Robbie Passe today Aug 9th 2023 80yrs young✌️🎶🎸 Thanks Robbie Robertson love ya! Robert Hayes 🎸🎶👈✌️😇🙏🍻
Big Pink was very important to me as a kid.I loved the Band,for 55 or so years.My first encounter with the Band when they backed Dylan at Forest hills in 1965.
I've loved this album since I bought it in 1968 and then the CD in the 2000's (so I could play it in my car). Now I have it on MP3 player so I can sing along road-tripping in my KIA Soul. My favorite album is Big Pink that I love to sing along - especially "The Weight." So sorry another member of The Band has left us. Hope I get to see them in heaven and we can all sing praises to the Lord.
Fired up the sound system today and rummaged thru a box of old reel to reel tapes I have had for a very long time.Decided to do it blind, so I reached in and pulled out the first reel I grabbed on to. I should do this more often. This album was on the reel along with some Zombies, Procol Harum, Cream and a few others. Cranked it up, kicked back, and closed my eyes. I think somehow I got transported back to the 60's. Man did it bring memories flooding back. Could almost feel the spray on my face as I popped out of a tube on the north shore of Oahu as a kid. Who says time travel is not possible? I say it is thru music. Anyway, hope y'all are enjoying this as much as I am.
The passage of time sees what was , is no longer. Robbie left his mark certainly. We all leave our mark in our own way. I won't ever have the ability to impact so powerfully and widely but i do what I can do in my own way. RIP. Gone but not forgotten
the soulful singing on this album is just insane, specifically manuel and danko.
55 years ago. So, in 1968, the old guys mused about music from 1913.
I actually do. My favorite guy, along with The Band, Edmond Hall, was born 1900. Listen to the clarinet! Search Edmond Hall. He makes my hair stand up. Let me know if you like Ed.

My worn out copy was purchased when the first pressing reached the stores. Doesn't say "The Band" anywhere. Just "Music from Big Pink". I treasure it as much as my mono Beatles LPs and my mono Fresh Cream and of course The Band's follow up.
Well, on the inside cover it does say The Band - and the lists their names. Next of Kin get the nod too. ;)
@@revereconsultantsyep, at the time they were called The Crackers (as the record company didn't like their previous idea of being called The Honkies) so it was released with no band name - just their individual names. There was, as you say, "the band" listed above their names on the liner notes.
Good selection of music my friend.We were very lucky to have the music we did in the 60' and 70'
I'm 73 years old now and still listening to the music of the sixties ! We were so lucky ! ⚡
Incredible album. All time classic.
Great album, an education for me at the time. Easy Rider popularised their music, deservedly so.
Easy Rider for this 60 yo Kiwi [New Zealander] was one of my all time favorite movies. Along with Vanishing Point. The final scene in Easy Rider teared me up. Wyatt & Billy were totally misunderstood by rednecks. Has anything changed...
I just found this after reading that Roger Daltry said in an interview that this is his favourite album
one of canadas best bands ever
Tears Of Rage is one of the best songs in recorded music... production is A++++++++ its as emotional as it can get
Great song! Listen to the version Ian and Sylvia do in the Festival Express movie, stellar!
See the film "Once Were Brothers"...Robbie's story of The Band.
Wow, this should be interesting. I can't believe I never heard of this. It's on Amazon.
Levon &,Robbie hope the rift is stiched back boys thanks for the music
Not likely- since Levon died in 2012 after making a doc critical of Robbie’s songwriting credit deal-
I can sympathize w both sides- but Robbie picked Levon’s lower Midwest carcass clean to song ideas --
RIP Mr. Robertson
Legendary. Thank you. 🌟
This album put everyone on notice.. the band has arrived! The Beatles, Neil young, Eric Clapton were fans.
Thank you for uploading this classic album.
I can smell this music
The Weight is amazing, but To Kingdom Come is my favorite. This album is one of the best
Thank you very, very much! ❤️ I love this album!
Love how his guitar tones distort and change in the lead licks outro -
Robbie, RIP and Thank You!!!
..And life is brief.
Rest in peace
Without big pink albums like ziggy stardust and exile on main street wouldn't have been released
Wow. Remember this cant believe l was 8 when it came out
You're a little kid. I was 13, but was into Herb Alpert at the time. It took 3 years, summer of '/70 at overnight camp, to see the light. Now I can say The Band has been my favorite for 52 years.
@@joelwexler Ok junior,I was 14 😂 already into Ray Charles...Eric Burdon & Animals and Van...Music From Big Pink...still remember the album cover...might go and steal it off my old brother...🤣
Shortly after The Band made it, my Babysitters and other Young Women made sure to let me know all about it. Seems my wavy red hair had cashed in somehow. Then, times changed! 😭 RIP Robbie. Time to get back with your Brothers. God bless you all.
Garth! Don't gimme no lip!
Awesome!!!!!
Rest easy, Robbie
Who else is here because of Robbie?
R.I.P. Robbie Robertson
Only one left standing.....😢
Superb!
Just read Rogery Daultry says this is best album of all time
Ah, Robbie, RIP
Levon your alive in us all may I carry that" weight"
I understand how great and important this album was in 1968 and still is today, but I still prefer the versions of every song that is on The Basement Tapes.
best album since meet the beatles
To have been a roadie for the Band; with Dylan dropping by to chat and jam. Yes, Virginia there once was a Heaven (pardon the mixed metaphor). What is left when all the hippies are gone? RIP Robbie
No worries- AI will invent some more😮😢😊
@@jgwire- Wow. AI seems scarier with each day's passing 😬
RIP Robbie
the best album ever!
RIP Robbie Robertson. Legend.
Rip robbie
This kinda reminds me of The Greatful Dead.
great album|!
I love this album, but I absolutely have to be in the right mood to listen to it. Or more specifically I need to feel like I’m at a certain low speed, or I find this album totally intolerable to listen to. But when I’m in that particular mood there is nothing better to listen to.
I found this album after reading Eric Clapton's autobiography.
He wrote it himself you know
Before he went off the deep end.
@beniman8214 He's been in the deep end since the mid-70s at the very least.
I found this album in my older brothers vinyl 33's -in 1968 !🤣
@@stevepayne5965 He's the reason we have Rock Against Racism lol

I love being an old hippie and feel sorry for people in their teens & 20's who have never heard this (and other) classic music from this era. Today's music is mostly a waste of time.
But people now have access to all good music from the beginning.
Those who seek, in turn shall find.
I agree 👍
You hit the ex right on the head
until you try and stand up and you ache all over and wish you were still in your 20s
You don’t think every generation feels the same way?
What does song 'Tears of Rage' have to do with 'Presence of the Lord' of eric clapton?
@user-do9vh3gi4z - I don't know. Give me a clue.
And they call today's music music its such a wast of time todays music

ok boomers
ok boomers ? were you dragged kicking and screaming to this old folks thread and forced to supply a feeble rejoinder ?
Name ten good rock songs from the last 20 years
Thanks. Now, what else do you have?
Just watched a documentary on Eric Clapton that said he ended the band cream because he wanted to explore music like this. Don't get me wrong this is great but I call it a downgrade. I think that psychedelic drugs increase the speed of a person's evolution. He moved on from all that hippie sh*t. But my god it was glorious, should have stayed there.
I agree he was glorious. I disagree with the downgrade thing. Cream itself only has one "psychedelic" album and the rest are blues rock ot whatever. "Derek and the dominos Live at Filmore east" is the definitive proof that even after Cream he was superb, psychedelic or not.
Clapton put out shit in the 80s
@@kentcoon1220 He put out shit full stop, when you think what Dylan and Van Morrison did.
And the award for stupidest comment goes to..

Este es uno de los grupos más infravalorados del rock hace murió uno de sus componentes y años atrás también murieron algunos más, The Band grupo de acompañamiento del gran Bob Dylan
