Elton John, Mavis Staple, Bumford and Sons And Others to Honor Levon Helm at Grammys.
They should just play the clip from ‘The Last Waltz’. I always find tributes just make me go screaming back to the artist being worshipped.
The Midnight Ramble will roll on at the Grammys when Elton John and Mumford & Sons lead a tribute to the late Levon Helm, The Associated Press reports. As part of the awards show’s in memoriam tribute, John and Mumford & Sons will be joined by T Bone Burnett, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Zac Brown and Mavis Staples for a special performance of the Band’s “The Weight.”

NO IDEA WHY THIS HAS UPSET ME SO MUCH. EXCEPT I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED LEVON. ALOT. HE HAS CLASS AND HE DRUMMED AND SUNG. VERY SAD. FUCKING CANCER.
Phillips County native and rock ‘n’ roll legend Levon Helm “is in the final stages of his battle with cancer,” according to his wife Sandy and daughter Amy. “Please send your prayers and love to him as he makes his way through this part of his journey,” they wrote.
“Thank you fans and music lovers who have made his life so filled with joy and celebration… he has loved nothing more than to play, to fill the room up with music, lay down the back beat, and make the people dance! He did it every time he took the stage… We appreciate all the love and support and concern,” they wrote.Helm had recently canceled several concert dates, including a headlining spot at Jazz Fest in New Orleans and several Midnight Rambles — the intimate shows he hosted over the years at his home studio in Woodstock, N.Y.
