I struggle for words . . . I've watched and listened to you for over a decade now and still I'm unable to express how that seeing and hearing makes me feel. You are at once a virtuoso on guitar (and pretty much every other stringed instrument you get your hands on) , a gifted singer with a voice that continues to season and mellow beyond expectations, a modern minstrel/troubadour, this generation's cultural poet laureate, and an obviously genuinely nice guy who attracts other gifted musical artists like moths to a flame. I'm old, so I won't get to see how far this actually goes. But, it will clearly go very, very far. What you do is undeniable and unstoppable. I'm honored to bask in the generosity of your gift to us all. Thank you.

This kid just keeps getting better. A true artist. Writing, plays everything, production, etc... I would love to see Josh at any live venue. HE IS GIFTED
Like Paul Simon in his finest hours, but even with more advanced and intriguing guitar playing. Pure beauty and magic on all levels - original compositions, lyrics, singing... yet with a touch of something very special. And obviously a very nice and pleasant personality. Well, it is no secret for quite some time that Josh is an absolutely top musician of the generation...
@@TheFirstGroover ya very talented and a lot of talented friends. I was shocked at his age. I thought he was like 19-20 but he said in one of his videos that he was 26. I would like to see his full bio. When he started playing etc.
To me it lacks something... It feels a bit too clean. Maybe the fact that all the instruments are playing live together. Or an execution a bit too "perfect"... Not rough, not organic enough to make this magic
The smartest move you ever made, sir, is not signing with a big label. I think I can honestly say that the best new music that's coming out or is established is like this; social media and touring. Thank you!!
I was around 7yo when I bought my very first record. It was "Wednesday Morning 3am" by Simon and Garfunkel. To this day, it was the catalyst that made me pursue a career in music. Now at 61, I'm again truly inspired by another.... Amazing dude!
@@-dale2051 Not the guy you're replying to, but yes man it's very worth it. My advice would to read out of a book for whatever instrument you choose or, if you can afford it, get a private instructor.
Josh, I know one thing for sure, one day the social media comments will be too numerous for you to read. For now, from all your fans, we just want to say with gratitude, hat's off to an artist who has figured out how and why art allows us to feel and think in ways that expand what we know and affirms the important things we knew already.
I'm an old guy who has watched and followed a LOT of musicians over the years, but I can't think of a single one who exudes the pure talent that Josh does. I feel like there is nothing he can't do musically. I'm without words to describe the awe that I feel when I watch what he's able to do. It's other-worldly. Damn.
So often i get hooked on an artist from their covers and am underwhelmed by any originals they might create. But this stuff is soooooo awesome! Josh, you are truly a musical legend in the making...
This! This is exactly what I would say about both Josh and Reina del Cid. Great, catchy originals with superb musicianship. It’s what separates the true artists from the pretenders. And I would know - I’m a pretender! ; )
Video editing, singing, bass, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, audio editing software, percussion, banjo, perfect ear for music, motivation, and he ain't lazy. Passion for music, great selection of covers, genius arrangements, great song writer, I'm sure this list is missing numerous items. Also just a super gentle personality. Must have tremendous parents. I wonder how many guitar Josh has. The country singer Josh Turner has talent, but total talent, no comparison. And Josh Lee Turner, he's Cool.

It’s been a pleasure. Loved the idea to upload everything in a row, and it’s amazing that you actually got a 37 mins video here and not just audio only. Keep creating !
This is a genius idea, it’s not just an album that happened to be released during a pandemic, but that documents what life is like mentally and physically. Josh is a genius in his own right, and his music just gets better and better.
I'm sure it's been said many times before, but this man is extremely gifted with his ability to create wonderfully captivating and beautiful music. I never tire of listening to consummate musicians such as Josh Turner.
I am sure of one thing: when the books are written about music - popular and otherwise - they will include a significant place for those few true artists that saved melody, harmony and beauty from falling away into the darkness of the muck that comprises most of today's 'popular music'. Among those very few celebrated will be you, Mr. Turner. There aren't enough words to express my gratitude for sharing your talent with us.
I've been following Josh for several years now and watching him progress. It has been absolutely enjoyable. This effort has made me realize his genius.
Like the last guy, Don and many, many others, I celebrate Joshua. I had so much fun playing music, this kind of music, with friends I met along the way. Within these tunes I found friendship, community, joy, kindness, truth, hope, sadness and humanity.
The love child of Paul Simon and Nick Drake has blessed us all. Thank you a million times over for commiting awesome all over my Wednesday morning... Oh, and a piece of Bruce Cockburn to finish off the set. Freakin' brilliant.
This is just lovely. Feel I'm listening to a blend of Townes Van Zandt, James Taylor, Neil Young, Chet Atkins, and Bob Dylan. Can't forget Brian Wilson or Doc Watson either. I feel the passion and craftsmanship that has been poured into this album. Certainly has your own soul ingrained in it. Cheers brotha. You've been a treat to watch and listen to over the years. 🤙
Best viewed and listened to with headphones….. this young man is a Masterful Musician, some of us have discovered his genius videos, but the world has not…… yet! But, for its betterment…It Should!!
I had those Beatles headshots in my room in 1969. They came with the White Album. I learned every song on those two LPs. Started my guitar life. (Insert heart)
Beautiful. This is why God put music in the hearts of . . . at least some . . . . of his children. So they could let it out and share it with the rest of us. Thank you for using your gift. By the way, I also recognize that it has taken many years of discipline and determination - and late nights up practicing - to see this gift revealed. It's a true partnership and, when it works, it's a work of beauty.
I claim my right as a very old, supremely untalented and hideously jealous guitarist to say I hate him . . . by heaven he's good. God speed to the pantheons of greatness, Joshua.
I fell into this artist's world about 2 weeks ago. Since then, i have binge-watched more music than in any single period in the previous 60 years of my life, wow. i am so glad I didn't miss this . And I thought I had a grasp on music.....not so much, not since I found Joshua Lee Turner. What can I say? just thanks for the music.
I fell in 2 years ago. I binged too.... He and Toni Lindgren are my favorite guitarist and I just truly enjoy the collaborations with Reina, Carson and all his musical friends. Truly remarkable. I detest the social media world we live in, but this music on youtube is a gem and almost makes up for all of the negative social media brings us. I am a Live from Daryls house fan too
I watched this video like 10-15 times since I discovered it few weeks ago. Your covers are great, but your original music is even more amazing! Please, keep making it! The video part is awesome too!
I just discovered Josh Turner! Amazing artist and gifted performer, musician, singer, songwriter. Thank you for sharing your God-given talents Joshua. A real inspiration and sure to be a legend in the leagues of Doc Watson and James Taylor! Keep making music.
Nostalgia/so far so long is my favorite. But seriously they are all so good!! Every piece has it's place in this album. There are very few albums as good as this where every single piece is really really good
I'm trying to find words to explain what I hear from your voice and instruments. It sounds like the old days, when good music and song was a joy to listen to.. You sir and your friends, are a fresh old sound. So happy I've stumbed across your videos and music. Thank you
Ive been listening to your work for the better part of a decade, but I always come back to this album. I so adore your original work and the feelings i have through this every time i listen through are a huge highlight for my weeks. ❤
Hi Josh. I'm living in Paris, France. I just want to write to you "THANK YOU"! It's really really really great. Bless you, young Man. I wish you the Best. And as Springsteen said : "We learned more from a three-minute record, baby than we ever learned in school"! Take Care. F.
This boy and his friend with whom they sometimes duo has a tremendous talent. In the 60s they would have been a kind of Lennon-McCartney, but with a lot more instrumental technique.
A lot more of what? Paul McCartney and John Lennon were tremendous musicians.. Paul McCartney plays drums bass guitar and piano as a top class artist. And John Lennon did the same with drums piano and guitar...I don't even want to mention the songwriting skills. Josh and Carson are great, I've been following them for years now, but that comparison is too much
@@andrealanzillotta4388 DEAR ANDREA, IT'S NOT TO MAKE AN ARGUMENT. IF YOU CONSULT MY YOUBE CHANNEL YOU WILL SEE THAT I MADE HUNDREDS OF ARRANGEMENTS OF THE BEATLES FOR SOLO GUITAR, SINCE I LOVE THEIR MUSIC. I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT IN THE 60S THERE WERE YOUNG MUSICIANS OF INCREDIBLE TALENT BUT WITHOUT INSTRUMENTAL TRAINING BECAUSE THERE WERE NO LEARNING MEANS LIKE NOW. DISCS LISTEN ALONE. TODAY JOSH AND HIS FRIEND HAVE A GREAT TECHNIQUE AND WITHOUT DOUBT THEY WOULD HAVE OUTSTANDED IN THE 60'S. TODAY IT IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO MAKE A CAREER IN MUSIC TOO. REGARDS
@@mrlaviola123 I AGREE CARLOS, IN THE SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES IT WAS MORE ABOUT THE MUSIC BUT TODAY IN THE AGE OF ON DEMAND TELEVISION AND VISUAL STIMULATION VIA RUclips, SEX APPEAL AND A PRETTY FACE ARE WORTH FAR MORE TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT AND POSSIBILITY OF BECOMING A HOUSEHOLD NAME THAN TALENT, MUSICAL SKILL AND CREATIVITY. REGARDS
Can we just appreciate how good he is at producing? I mean, no fancy record label to get all the thousand dollar equipment and place it in the right spots and spend hours editing, shifting the lights, combining all the instruments with the right amount of volume. This is spectacular, I can't imagine how much patience and knowledge you must have to record all these songs with such precision alone. Cheers.
My impression is that Josh is a new breed of musician; completely immersed into the beauty and love of music in all its splendor, so much so that commercialization ( profit oriented) would put too many constraints on him. He cannot be defined or boxed in. His talents and gifts continue to blossom. He continues to experience more joy in his creations and he shares his unending permutations and combinations of music. Stay independent , Josh. Keep loving what you do!
I am 52 and decided to start learning guitar. I had my first lesson a few days ago and have a newfound respect for the instrument and those who play it well. Beautiful video!
I love the first record but this one feels more focused, like there's a consistent mood throughout. I feel like the current state of the world has influenced the lyrics. Hope to catch you again sometime. I love the album art wish i had a big Public Life poster.
The composition is inspirational and the video clip instructional. I'm super excited to sit down and learn your songs, thankyou for using this platform so humbly
If I could write music, I would write a song like the first one. No note was left undone. Such a moving piece happily balanced and filled with emotion. Awe-some!
I struggle for words . . . I've watched and listened to you for over a decade now and still I'm unable to express how that seeing and hearing makes me feel. You are at once a virtuoso on guitar (and pretty much every other stringed instrument you get your hands on) , a gifted singer with a voice that continues to season and mellow beyond expectations, a modern minstrel/troubadour, this generation's cultural poet laureate, and an obviously genuinely nice guy who attracts other gifted musical artists like moths to a flame. I'm old, so I won't get to see how far this actually goes. But, it will clearly go very, very far. What you do is undeniable and unstoppable. I'm honored to bask in the generosity of your gift to us all. Thank you.
Nicely put Don 👍✌
I think your struggle for words, expressed a collective voice, Don!
Well said, I think a bit of history is being made with this album
Why don’t you marry him Don . Lol just kidding .
Same position here Don. Really well said.
I feel like I'm watching a young legend starting his career
I think you are.
Another guy who took 15 years to become an overnight success, perhaps?
Yes exactly
Yes I agree. Some day we will all be like ‘ Remember the ole days when we watched Josh on RUclips playing in his apartment ? ‘
Clemente you are
As Mark Knopfler once sang, "He got the action, he got the motion; Oh yeah, the boy can play..."
hahahahahha perfect!
And he’s got an amazing quality to his voice!

Man, Nostalgia/So Far So Long should be in 100 song folk songs ever. Stunningly beautiful.
This kid just keeps getting better. A true artist. Writing, plays everything, production, etc... I would love to see Josh at any live venue. HE IS GIFTED
I CALL em all Kids on this CHANNEL I AM 57

@@NavyVetJack 😅 his RUclips channel goes back 15 years
To me it lacks something... It feels a bit too clean. Maybe the fact that all the instruments are playing live together. Or an execution a bit too "perfect"... Not rough, not organic enough to make this magic
My thoughts.
He is in a rare class of musicians who are true masters. Insane ability to sing over complicated guitar parts.
Well said. Very accurate
Yes
"Now I'm shopping for my groceries and wondering what it's like to die" ... Greatest lyric I've heard all year.
That line hit me like a ton of bricks.
COVID in one line
The smartest move you ever made, sir, is not signing with a big label. I think I can honestly say that the best new music that's coming out or is established is like this; social media and touring. Thank you!!
Just amazing. I need a "Love" button here... Thank you!

@@-dale2051 Not the guy you're replying to, but yes man it's very worth it. My advice would to read out of a book for whatever instrument you choose or, if you can afford it, get a private instructor.
30 years from now this will be looked back on fondly.
Can you imagine having this kind of access to your favorite bands in the 60’s
For those watching this in 2030 when Josh is one of the most well known guitarists/musicians in the world.... We've been expecting you ;)
Josh, I know one thing for sure, one day the social media comments will be too numerous for you to read. For now, from all your fans, we just want to say with gratitude, hat's off to an artist who has figured out how and why art allows us to feel and think in ways that expand what we know and affirms the important things we knew already.
Yes
How beautifully put. I concur. No one could have said it better.
I'm an old guy who has watched and followed a LOT of musicians over the years, but I can't think of a single one who exudes the pure talent that Josh does. I feel like there is nothing he can't do musically. I'm without words to describe the awe that I feel when I watch what he's able to do. It's other-worldly. Damn.
This is what the internet was invented for. Great music, demonstration of talent, and cute cat videos all in one.
So often i get hooked on an artist from their covers and am underwhelmed by any originals they might create. But this stuff is soooooo awesome! Josh, you are truly a musical legend in the making...
This! This is exactly what I would say about both Josh and Reina del Cid. Great, catchy originals with superb musicianship. It’s what separates the true artists from the pretenders. And I would know - I’m a pretender! ; )
This guy recorded this stuff to _cassette tape_ and worked the magic required to bring such beauty to us. Just, wow.
Josh, I hope you know how much joy your music gives to everyone watching. I get a great sense of peace hearing you play. Thank you!
My 9 year old son is also a Joshua. If he turns out half as good as the Joshua in the video, my life will be a success. 😇
I play guitar for fun , and Paul Simon is my referent since I was a child. Nowadays Josh is my Idol.
Video editing, singing, bass, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, audio editing software, percussion, banjo, perfect ear for music, motivation, and he ain't lazy. Passion for music, great selection of covers, genius arrangements, great song writer, I'm sure this list is missing numerous items. Also just a super gentle personality. Must have tremendous parents.

This is just pure gold. This man needs more publicity. What an influence he is!
The man just does not stop! He's a force to be reckoned with.

Yes! The video adds so much to the story. As a fellow musician, it is incredibly inspiring and educational to watch Josh play all the parts.
This is a genius idea, it’s not just an album that happened to be released during a pandemic, but that documents what life is like mentally and physically. Josh is a genius in his own right, and his music just gets better and better.
THE ROUGH HAS JUST BEEN POLISHED OFF THIS DIAMOND. JOSH, TALENTED BEYOND MEASURE IN OUR CURRENT BLAH, BLAH , HO-HUM SOCIETY. WONDERFUL SOUNDS.
I keep getting the notion that this young man is my favorite guitar player and singer
I'm sure it's been said many times before, but this man is extremely gifted with his ability to create wonderfully captivating and beautiful music. I never tire of listening to consummate musicians such as Josh Turner.
well, here's my album of the year. thanks josh.

I've been following Josh for several years now and watching him progress. It has been absolutely enjoyable. This effort has made me realize his genius.
Just shows how crooked the music industry is! People like Joshua and Carson should be at the top of the charts!
Absolutely at the top of mine. Both of them.
Couldn’t agree more! Corporate music won’t back true talent! Doesn’t fit the paradigm they peddling!
Like the last guy, Don and many, many others, I celebrate Joshua. I had so much fun playing music, this kind of music, with friends I met along the way. Within these tunes I found friendship, community, joy, kindness, truth, hope, sadness and humanity.
I. Could. Not. Love. This. More. Simply superb. A million thanks for sharing your awesome gifts.
Finally... Music is alive... After a long sleep...
"Smoky Sunrise" is an absolute treasure to listen to and now I get to listen to it whenever my heart fancies it. Thanks Josh!!

Why doesnt this guy has 50M subscribers??
A modern day classic from one of the best current musicians in the world imo
Your music is such a gift to the world. I LOVE IT!!
I had those Beatles headshots in my room in 1969. They came with the White Album. I learned every song on those two LPs. Started my guitar life. (Insert heart)

This is missing album I needed in my life right now. A true accomplishment. You should be very proud.
You are a master of pop folk country music, both for voice and guitar playing. And the sound is perfect. Big hello from France.
Though I have the album, I find myself coming back to the videos. It's so satisfying watching him play.
This man is so talented, it's a privilege to listen to you playing that guitar Josh. Thank you for 35 of the best minutes of 2020.

We love you down here in New Zealand Joshua! 🇳🇿
Simply Awesome,the world needs more of this
Every time Josh picks his guitar up I put mine down. I wish I had half his talent.
Oh and I’ve played for 35 years.

Just bought it! Really great music. One of the rare musicians who actually makes individual music. Greetings from germany
blown away
all I can say
I've watched everything you've put out

Buy. This. Album! Josh is an incredible talent. Congratulations on the release, Josh!
Thank you Josh.
Very good, remembering t. Rex, Donovan, Neil Young, csny, cat Stevens, Buffalo Springfield.
I love the first record but this one feels more focused, like there's a consistent mood throughout. I feel like the current state of the world has influenced the lyrics. Hope to catch you again sometime. I love the album art wish i had a big Public Life poster.
the full album!!! what a wonderful experience this has been each friday. i'm so excited to listen to this start to finish. wonderful work.
Perfect thanks n every way. Your talent is unique and unequalled Josh. Heartfelt thanks for the joy you give us.
Thank God for the RUclips algorithm that brought me here today! I am a new fan :-)
You are the product of your passion. It is very inspiring. Just keep it up.

The cat certainly helps! :) Seriously, though, Josh plays guitar better than I've ever dreamed of doing. And sings ditto.
This young man should be a big star by now what are the record labels waiting for
come back to listen to this album from time to time, the video is just a bonus at this point :D
This is just simply good for the soul. Thanks Josh!
Bloody genius! You have been touched by the grace of God! Takes my breath away. Time to tour Australia!
