Covers: Evangeline

“Evangeline” was first performed by The Band and Emmylou Harris in a studio session in The Last Waltz film. I love the cover by two former Band members, Levon Helm and Rick Danko.

Evangeline from The Band's The Last Waltz Suite is a terrific song. I am, however, partial to a 1983 rendition from when Levon Helm & Rick Danko played it together as an acoustic duo somewhere live in Oregon. It's ragged, right & perfect.https://t.co/cT0LSJd9g3 pic.twitter.com/un6tiDHK0M
