Help me out Mike. This is Robby Roberson on lead and Levon Helms on drums, right?

That is correct Doyle. Along with Garth Hudson, Rick Danko, and Richard Manuel.

edited to fix typos.

One of my all time favorite tunes...that and "It Makes No Difference" by The Band.

I was at that show - the best $25.00 I ever spent.

Love that song and still play it as a "camp fire/family jam" song after all these years.

The highlight of my so called career was three years ago when I got to play The Weight with the Levon Helm Band on the dobro at the Midnight Ramble.
On stage between Garth and Chris Thiele and Cassandra Wilson, unbelievable...
The Band and Levon are the greatest !!

I always relate Roberson and Helms with Ronnie Hawkens in Toronto Canada, but that's been a long time ago. DW
