In what just might be the finest rock& roll concert film ever, THE LAST WALTZ celebrates the final performance by the Band (Robbie Robertson, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel, Levon Helm, and Garth Hudson). The show took place on Thanksgiving Day in 1976, at San Francisco's Winterland Arena--where the group had played their very first show more than 16 years before. In order to make their farewell even more unforgettable, they recruited numerous guests to join them onstage, including Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters, Ronnie Hawkins, Paul Butterfield, Emmylou Harris, Neil Diamond, the Staple Singers, Dr. John, Ringo Starr, Ron Wood, and Lawrence Ferlinghetti. Martin Scorsese, a former roommate of Robbie Robertson's, employs some of the world's greatest cinematographers--including Michael Chapman, Vilmos Zsigmond, and Laszlo Kovacs--to film the set in a way that captures the show's sweat and energy with a powerful intimacy. Interspersed into the songs are a series of interviews with the Band's members, who recall their early days playing for empty bars and their emergence as major players in the rock& roll game. THE LAST WALTZ is a thrilling concert film, mandatory viewing even for those unfamiliar with the Band or rock music in general.

Good luck led me to the IFC Channel (DirecTV) one night 25 minutes into this concert. I couldn't believe some of my favorite artists were in the same concert together. Powerful performances by everyone including The Band, whose music I had heard but didn't know who played it. Just plain good ole' fun!

Great Concert DVD
After many years, I finally bought the Last Waltz. What a great dvd! It came fast and just as expected. I just found out it is available in Blu Ray. Bummer, but for the price I bought the DVD for, I can get the blu-ray and give this one away as a gift. A must-have for any music fan!

The perfect gift
I bought this as a gift and my bf loved it. We actually had to shift plans so we could watch it that night. He still pops it in when we are doing stuff around the house so we can have the music in the background. I would recommend it for anyone who loves this type of music.

Awesome dvd
This dvd really shows The Band at their best. The bonus is all the great musicians on this with them. I especially love Van Morrison. Great live performance. Definitely worth the money. A must for any music lover.
