this is an absolutely fucking brilliant song. the album is spectacular. it sounds like the best of mid 70's psych-folk but there is no need to compare it to any other bands because it stands alone as a reminiscent yet fresh and original sound.
Ben Burton So very well said. Yes. JW is pretty close to it, for me, musically. Every record he puts out is brilliant. At least to my mind they are. And then there’s his touring with Tom a Petty, producing music by Roger Waters and having killer (people in the know might call it legendary) Laurel Canyon parties. Crosby and Nash stopping over to jam. I mean...wow! 🤙🏼❤️🌞
This song began playing on the NPR station while my son screamed in his car seat. He suddenly stopped crying, then began to cry again when it ended. So I took note of this but dismissed it as a fluke. Since then when we drive (he hates being in the car seat) I play it on repeat and he will stay calm. When I stop playing it he freaks out again. So, who cares what I think of this song? My 15 week old apparently loves it!! Thank you!!
First 0:54 seconds is irrelevant (CUT!), indicative of a drug problem, annoying, unnecessary, and maybe stop trying to be trippy Kanye West white guy or whatever, but rest of song good
@@tavtaverner5886 this was about a guy’s kid. Surely your response wasn’t meant to be for this. Try to chill out a little bit and get things right next time.
I don't care how you got here (I'm here because of Mark Appleyard's Globe skateboarding part), but the fact that you're here means that you have great taste in music. I love you.
This song is going to be playing at the pinnacle moment of my life, Sandy beaches, surfable waves, a cool water on the table, I’m about 40 and I don’t need money, memory’s of my life sweep through my head. This song will be playing.
Was delighted to see Jonathan on stage with Roger Water on the Us And Them Tour. Did not expect anything less from Waters, and wasn’t dissapointed by Jonthan’s performance. And that 70’s vibe is so delighful and brings a warm wind of change in this utterly fucked up time in history. Peace
This song/album helped guide me through my stoned haze of the last couple of years of high school. Would've been such an awful time, had I not some vague sense of the mystic awe of nature.
Wow - strange freaky video. It reminds me somehow of Carlos Castaneda's shamanic experiences. Wonderfully creative stuff, with some fine influences such as early Pink Floyd, America, Eagles, Gillian Welch (in my estimation)! The music has a valuable spiritual meaningfulness and humility. It is greatly adding to the quality of my Springtime 2012 experience, here in the UK. Thank you, Jonathan and friends!
Wow that's cool. I saw him open for Wilco after his first record Gentle Spirit had come out. This song instantly grabbed my intention. Wilco's Pat Sansone played the acoustic rhythm guitar on it.
Wow.. This man's work is a gold mine. I just found out about him yesterday. It's good to have friends from around the world online that share a great span of music tastes when gems like this get linked. Thanks, Kim.
Fuzzy white haze in the asphalt was a lake And the sand it was a grayish shade of blue Spirits held desire While my eyes they did admire The evening that we only thought we knew Further out to see I heard the birds wings over me The vibrations in the air through my ears The sun was rising slinking low The day was saddled up to go The desert's lonely nightfall disappear The raven who flies through the desert sky Is wiser than you or me The birds have a peace The stillness a sleeve And the desert raven he has poetry Close your eyes and fly to let the diamonds make the night Crystal blue will turn to ruby red The plants become a maze under the heavens starry hazel Pegasus he gallops over head The buffalo at night they follow close the river's edge while Saffron slowly grows inside the cage The starry minds of hyacinth the moon below the sun's eclipse The sandy canyon floats beyond the wave The raven who flies through the desert sky Is wiser than you or me The birds have a peace The stillness a sleeve And the desert raven he has poetry

Desert Raven is in the soundtrack around 28 mins for a brief time, then again in the background- so impactful I became a Jonathan Wilson fanatic. Weirdly, but thankfully, heard it on Gaga's flick, because I'm not usually a pop fan!
There was that guy before the Tom Petty concert. Usually I am not into pre-concerts, because a) it is totally different music or b) it sucks big time. But the few times it gets interesting are very scarse. This guy Jonathan Wilson totally surprised me. His performance was the perfect warming up. Thank you for introducing me to Jonathan!!!!
Jonathan Wilson, I will be forever grateful for this song. This masterpiece saved me from the psychic torture, desert raven flew to save me from the evil entity which made an attempt at the height of DMT trip.
i just discovered this song a few weeks ago. i love this beautiful melody, the voice, the spirit. an inspiration. it's part of my life now. thanks jonathan!
Makes me wonna lay down in the desertsand and sink away in pools of wisdom, the nothingness, no distractian nor pollution; God, the sun, warm white crushed shells and me myself and I, ow yeah ..ofcorse the desertraven:) .. alchemic messengers. Thank u for this juwl. Im a child of the sixties, well in some kinda way this music belongs there.
Just got a "heads up" on Mr. Wilson from Vintage Guitar's site, , , came on over here for a listen, , , wonderful guitar tone, , , great song, , , gonna have to find that "Gentle Spirit" CD now!
Recently discovered this song after hearing the Heavy Heavy's version. I must say, both versions are fantastic and unique in their own ways. I do find this version to be a bit more soothing.
@mikeb3yeah True. It also brings Neil Young's "Down By The River" in mind. Jonathan Wilson channels his influences with respect and creativity. He is perhaps one of the greatest music artists of our time.
Pretty decent this really ! an extremely talented guy + the man seems to have or have access to a stupifying collection of some of the coolest vintage music making/recording tools on the planet.

Agree totally. Nobody I show it to believes it's from the 2010's !
Takes me back to 1974, KMYR FM Abq, NM.

This brings light back in the darkness. Humans are good at art and love, inhumans in war and greed...
Absolutely timeless
This could have been released any time between 1966 and today
Loving the whole laurel canyon vibe of this, it's just gorgeous...
Danny Miller Agree!!!
Just popped in feed today. 10-12-2024. Love it this is awesome. Like 70's Folk Rock, Great Sound, great voice.
@@Mazzy22 I enjoy the repeating instrumentals throughout the tune
One of the best songs ever. It barely ever happened that I keep listening to a song on repeat but this one... So soothing.
This song is like sunshine and a silky warm breeze with your dream girl on the best day of your life....
Beautiful description
I don't care how you got here (I'm here because of Mark Appleyard's Globe skateboarding part), but the fact that you're here means that you have great taste in music. I love you.
I’m her because of cannabis. And it’s delightful
Yeah buddy, watch Appleyard's globe part nearly daily.
The Heavy Heavy ✌️

word.
Rooting for you
I can't believe we have this in this day and age. Classic and fresh at the same time. My god.
Mark Appleyard's "Globe" Part brought me here!
Yup same.
Same for me
I randomly found this song yesterday after watching that part and kept wondering where I heard it lol
Same now I’m in love
Yep. Skate vids have a knack for turning people on to good music.
this is one of the 5 best songs I have ever listened... so many emotions...
Kerem Alptekin probably one of my 10, but anyway!👍💪😎
what are the other four? I'd like to give 'em a listen
I need to know the other ones for no reason
Oh my god what a beautiful artist i've discovered..........
The sound is incredible. What an atmosphere, how delightful is it for my ears.
This is a mesmerizing song. A proof that good music is still possible to happen, I guess.

BRILLIANT RHYTHM!
Thanks Mark Apples.
What beautiful poetry! What groovy licks! My ears are smiling
Beautifully mixed and mastered.
Heard this on WNCW, best radio station on the planet!
ME TOO, bud; it just took me FIVE YEARS to go locate it again!!
This song/album helped guide me through my stoned haze of the last couple of years of high school. Would've been such an awful time, had I not some vague sense of the mystic awe of nature.
This is the song that I could listen every day.
I love it more for each time I hear it.
I love this tune. Zero 7 meets the Allman Brothers.
With a dash of Moody Blues ;-)
@@Fhantom99 Live at Pompeii
@@Fhantom99 and a heap of steve miller

I think Jonathan make all the references. "Desert Raven" "Don Juan Matus". Idk... Too many coincidences. But this book is a gem
Yep. So calming. I hear early 'Albatross' - Fleetwood Mac.
If you are lucky enough to get to this level of music, I bow to you.
Saw them open for Tom Petty in Germany. Such a great concert, both bands.
Oh man I would have loved to see that happen! I saw them separately in Los Angeles. Lucky enough to see Petty at his last show. ❤️
Wow that's cool. I saw him open for Wilco after his first record Gentle Spirit had come out. This song instantly grabbed my intention. Wilco's Pat Sansone played the acoustic rhythm guitar on it.
God I love this song its just goose bumps all the way through LOVE the orchestral bits💞💞💞🙏🙏🙏

An absolute gem of a jam. I put this on and just melt away.......
I found this on a mellow psychedelic playlist and haven't stopped listening to this album in a couple of days. Its beautiful.
Fuzzy white haze in the asphalt was a lake
And the sand it was a grayish shade of blue
Spirits held desire
While my eyes they did admire
The evening that we only thought we knew
Further out to see
I heard the birds wings over me
The vibrations in the air through my ears
The sun was rising slinking low
The day was saddled up to go
The desert's lonely nightfall disappear
The raven who flies through the desert sky
Is wiser than you or me
The birds have a peace
The stillness a sleeve
And the desert raven he has poetry
Close your eyes and fly to let the diamonds make the night
Crystal blue will turn to ruby red
The plants become a maze under the heavens starry hazel
Pegasus he gallops over head
The buffalo at night they follow close the river's edge while
Saffron slowly grows inside the cage
The starry minds of hyacinth the moon below the sun's eclipse
The sandy canyon floats beyond the wave
The raven who flies through the desert sky
Is wiser than you or me
The birds have a peace
The stillness a sleeve
And the desert raven he has poetry
No. "...the stillness of sleep".
THIS ONE, THIS ONE RIGHT HERE
Me recuerda mucho esta canción a los primeros años de Pink Floyd,entre otros,se nota que este gran músico bebió de muchas y buenas fuentes,GRANDE!
This is my favorite song of my life
Fabulous vibe stands alone but reminiscent of the classic Mathews southern comfort Woodstock timeless quality music in my opinion ❤
Canciones del alma...para el alma! gracias por compartirlas al mundo!!!
Ho visto un concerto di questo ragazzo con la sua straordinaria band: FANTASTICO! SEMPLICEMENTE FANTASTICO!!
Erano anni che non provavo simili sensazioni ad un concerto, davvero STRABILIANTE!
ALTISSIMO LIVELLO!
Grande Jonathan! ^_^
This song is like heaven
Never get tired of this.
Lady Gaga's Five Foot Two documentary brought me here! Amazing voice! Love the soul!
Me too! Had to sound hound it.. sounds so beautiful
which part of the documentary brings you here? curious?
@@obxhome76 ^seconded
Desert Raven is in the soundtrack around 28 mins for a brief time, then again in the background- so impactful I became a Jonathan Wilson fanatic. Weirdly, but thankfully, heard it on Gaga's flick, because I'm not usually a pop fan!
The essence of early seventies music.Brilliant!
This is both hypnotic and stunning
absolutely beautiful tune. that guitar line is perfect. powerful stuff
Gorgeous vibe and sound. Kinda like Byrds and CSNY music, late 60s early 70s ...very mellow. Love it!!
There was that guy before the Tom Petty concert. Usually I am not into pre-concerts, because a) it is totally different music or b) it sucks big time. But the few times it gets interesting are very scarse. This guy Jonathan Wilson totally surprised me. His performance was the perfect warming up. Thank you for introducing me to Jonathan!!!!
wow! real music in our times...
Real music? Man we're probably in the best time in music history. You can listen to anything you want with little to no effort.
Taifer yeah
Another jewel in a musical treasure chest this legend carries around. A true journeyman. Love brother.
This video deserves more views.
Great, down to earth, honest music!
OooH #JonathanWilson,, sweetness sways my soul with this GEM☄️
An utterly sublime piece of music.
This song absolutely rules
Jonathan Wilson, I will be forever grateful for this song. This masterpiece saved me from the psychic torture, desert raven flew to save me from the evil entity which made an attempt at the height of DMT trip.
This song makes me want to get in my car, grab my boy and go on a road trip 🚙🌻🎶🌼❤️👌💯
just discovered Mr. Wilson, awesome music :)))
definitely timeless
A guy who sounds like Fleetwood Mac's Future Games deserves respect! Amazing!

And suddenly, theres a hope for music.
Just met this guy on my flight to Dublin. Pretty chill guy
