    The Weight

    The great Robbie Robertson, composer of The Weight, just died of prostrate cancer. I am not quite sure what this song is about, but it is an awesome classic by The Band.

    However, The Supremes and Temptations duet version is horrible. Diana’s vocal seems to be in the wrong key, and quite frankly the rock/folk song is out of her element. Paul’s vocal part is also hard on the ears. Why on earth was it released as a single? Does anyone find it listenable?
