The Band performing "Life Is A Carnival" live in the studio for "The Road," a 1995 television series. The performance was captured in 1994 in Rockford, Illinois. "Life Is A Carnival" was one of The Band's last truly collaborative songs during their first era and one of the only times three of the original band members shared writing credit (Danko-Robertson-Helm). Billboard called it a "funky beat swinger with a potent lyric line." #TheBand | The Band: A History
