Amateur video of The Band's Don't Do It



This is obviously film (it's 1971), but feels like it was shot by an amateur. On the other hand the sound is great, which argues against an amateur. Anyhow, The Band's cover of a great old Motown tune (not so old back then). It's always amazing seeing Levon drumming like crazy as he sings   .On second thought, I bet they sync'd the music from the Rock of Ages live album, which came from those shows. BTW, the great Alan Toussaint arranged the horns for these shows. . .
