[QUOTE="Vanguard2001, post: 208225, member: 4459"] The Weight, written by Robbie Robertson in 1968 is an iconic piece of music that ranks in the top 100 of all time. Here it is presented in a different format but with our boy Robbie on lead guitar. I took the liberty of posting the words so you all could sing along :Singing:. enJOY!
