The Weight
Americana Music Awards 2012
a note about this track

This song was the finale of the 2012 Americana Music Awards, an emotional tribute to the late Levon Helm. The all-star line-up begins with daughter Amy Helm on vocals, and includes Emmylou Harris, John Hiatt, Brittany Howard (Alabama Shakes), Bonnie Raitt, Richard Thompson, Sam Bush, Jim Lauderdale, Booker T. and Larry Campbell, among others. The video is very moving:
