Wednesday Video: The Weight

There are many great versions of The Weight, it's been covered by everyone from the Allmans to just about every bar band in the country. But this version, by The Band with The Staples Singers, is the best. It was part of The Last Waltz, but it was filmed in studio. I've heard (and seen) it a zillion times, and it still gives me goosebumps every time.
