I was thinking it sounds pretty aggressive for Robertson's guitar, then I read the comment.

yes, that was burning, need to look and see if I have that boot in one form or another.

Now back to your regularly scheduled Todd & Robbie Extravaganza.

I have a Ronnie Hawkins comp released in '70
www.discogs.com...
It has Who Do You Love on it. Have always been bothered by lack of detail on the credits on it.

Thanks Joe!!!

That's because The Band refused to license the song for the soundtrack. Smith recorded it for the soundtrack.

WR:

↳ Song: "Chest Fever" by "The Band"
Hudson's organ playing on this and on much of the next two albums was something heard nowhere else.

WR:

This is triggering me to read the Wiki pages for their albums and reading about Robertson have remix resequencing done for anniversary issues of those albums. Damn, how many times am I gonna buy those albums.
  6:23pm
Dean:

I bet there's a reissue of Band tracks, remixes, remasters, etc., called I Shall Be Re-Released.

Not to be confused with John Cougar Mellencamp's Little Pink...

As you know, doctorjazz, I attended every Dead show, and so of course I was there, too.
