Great post, couldn't agree more. Love this version from the first time I heard it.

@tharper1961 I respect your opinion, but general consensus among musicians I know and basically anyone who knows music is that this is the premier version of this song. The Staples make it so soulful and haunting. In my record collection I have 9 different versions of The Weight, and this is by far the one I listen to the most....

that noise at 2:17 (which you cant really hear if its not 480) is that Levon or Pops? Levon's mouth moves but it sounds like it should be Pops. (I hope its Levon)
