Not even close, besides The Weight which is hugely overplayed, and Tears of Rage (that Dylan wrote) The Band is superior in every regard...also itsit is correct that King Harvest is the best track

I agree. The Band is their supreme album. Deliberately understated, it is a sublime work of beauty - a timeless masterpiece. 'Whispering Pines' is such a gorgeous song, that everytime I hear it, I am forced to re-evaluate my athiesm. This album ought to be in all serious music fans top 100 charts.
