Nope - Gillian and Dave are the stars! Love jason & Amanda - but man, Dave Rawlings is amazing playing that old, cheap, classic guitar! If you see Dave & Gillian, Gillian will occasionally try to play Dave's guitar. The result: It's not the guitar, it's Rawlings' talent!
You rarely if ever hear Gillian Welch's name mentioned by mainstream people when they talk about great female country artists, or just great country artists in general. That should tell you all you need to know about the state of music today. One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
@Ophelia I think it is in part her own choices though. She has let Dave's career take precedence and has not had a new album in years. Her last won a Grammy, and she got a lot of attention in independent music in the 2000s. No one in the Americana genre is going to have superstar status, but she would get the attention of Kacey Musgraves or Brandy Clark if she was more active.
This is REAL country music. Dave is one of my all time favorite guitarists - a real virtuoso. Gillian is an incredible songwriter and singer, and the two were meant to play together. Adding Amanda and Jason was a great touch to an already amazing song. Pop country sucks - this is what music is all about. Great performance!
Absolutely phenomenal! Dave Rawlings has a very unique approach to scales and modes, so nice to see Jason just fall right into it... Right there are 4 of my favorite musicians performing today. Thanx!
@@mjcrawfYep, took me a while but somewhere within the last third of 30yrs of playing I realized there aren't any wrong notes they are just just less interesting ones and ones you don't use well. Know the Root, 7 and 3rd as just the guide posts, a long with a few tricks. After that, scales and modes take care of themselves as long as you remember that you play music and not guitar.
I've always been in awe when watching David Rawlings seemingly paint himself into a corner when playing leads, but somehow coming out unscathed by it all. It's almost heroic to a guitar player, his sense of walking such a fine line...
Funny but I understand exactly what you’re talking about. It seems like his music/mind wander off somewhere else into another tune and then he falls right back into the melody so smoothly.
Country is always alive, maybe the music media doesn't see it but it's there in someone's bedroom, barbecue's or anywhere people get together. Play some country tunes.
so nice to see grey hair on a lady. been watching her since she first came out and it reminds me that we're all getting older but he she just gets better.
My God...I've never been quite sure what this song is about, but I always feel like Gillian is looking for a hug after this song....she is more beautiful than any beauty queen...this song destroys me....when I remember all the love I've lost cause I chose looks over love....I think that this song is about being picked over and I'm guilty...but her talent as a musician to me makes her as beautiful as any model.....honestly she doesn't need music either...lm hooked to her words
I recall a seeing a B&W picture of a late 50's era young beauty queen - on parade, in a convertible, waving to the spectators, Miss Ohio ribbon across her bathing suit- ya know...doing the job of being Miss Ohio back in the day when women were thrilled to do that kind of stuff. The pic mighta been on a Gillian t shirt or in the CD booklet or something. So, anyhow, late 50's Miss Ohio....with the winning comes the appearances, parties, fun, independence, travel... the running around. And that was when the right thing was to get a man and settle down to 50's era homemaker respectability. But alas, Miss Ohio just wants time to enjoy the win, her fame, opportunity. In my interpretation, she maybe does get in a little too deep with the fun. That line "I know all about it, you don't have to shout it" sounds like a response I mighta made at some point in my past when someone suggested I may have a little drinking problem or something.... So Momma, the aunties, the old folks are worried /not happy and keep harping on her to do right. Plenty of room for interpretation to modern day trials and tribulations. Anyhow....Thats my story and I'm sticking to it ! Gill and Dave are beautiful souls for sure and if I ever meet them I sure will want to give them a big hug. Thanks for posting grassflats2.
I didn't think this song could get any better, then I heard this version with that beautiful mournful fiddle tugging away at my heart. Just spectacular! Thank you.
Just fabulous. In this world of throwaway stuff that just makes you switch off the system, this makes you sit straight up and pay attention. Beauty and grace, elegance and meaning, brought back to remind us what music was supposed to be about. And I'm not even North American! This has universal appeal.
I read somewhere that Jason sold his soul to the devil for 40 years with her. He claims he would have done it for 40 minutes with her. Sometimes you can actually have it all
What a shame it is in the selection of artists & songs that mainstream executives force through the radio. There isn’t a single song on the radio with substance like this. Willie Nelson once said “Three chords and the truth-that’s what a country song is”. If one were to use Willie’s criteria, it appears that radio hasn’t played country music in a very long time.
Im just a little obsessed with this song right now..listening to all recordings i find on youtube....it sticks with you.beautiful and just idk what makes this song to me so good..because it is?
It's wonderful to hear Amanda's violin, and how her voice seems to fit a perfect octave above Gillian Welch's. Four incredible musicians, playing an astounding song.
It's awfully tempting when collaborating like this to play a standard/classic song. I love it when musicians come together to play one of the artist's original songs. What a gem this is.
Gillians voice is so spare and natural sung with emotion conviction. The fancy noodling on the instruments never over powers her presence. Fortunately he sings harmony in a voice behind her
I love how whenever you hear songs about Ohio, it just like perfectly encapsulates the depressed as fuck and still kicking, stuck here but trying the hardest we can vibe of living here. Like no one wants to be here but damn we’re just sticking it out and trying our best
I saw Amanda Shires at Eddie’s Attic about 3-4 years ago. What a sweet and gracious woman. We saw her on the balcony as we we were leaving and a drunk friend of mine told her how much I loved her husbands music and she just smiled and told us how much she appreciated us coming to her show. First class musician and female all the way.
Yes, I got to see them twice in person. But, that is not enough. I look forward to seeing them post covid. Again! Praying for all the musicians that depend on live concerts for their income!!!!!! As a self employed photographer I know it's tough, but enjoying the gigs I do have right now.
... and this, folks, is why commercial country is just as awful as all the other over-produced garbage of every genre out there - you listen to such graceful, relatable music as this and the difference pops out in the most glaring fashion imaginable. In every genre, there are artists that bring their unique signature to their music and these four are part of that cadre of diverse voices that create something special when they perform.
Well, Gillian and Dave are in a class of their own! Yes, it is in some genre...maybe Americana or some, I started to say Bluegrass but no. It is...Gillian and Dave. That is the genre...them.
It sucks he didnt mention Dave. Imagine being one of the best guitar players in the United States and nobody knows who you are or even your name. Conan should know better.
No other singer or band can cover this song and gillians songs in general.. this song was covered by miranda lambert also one my fave country singer but i dont like it. And my all time fave emmylou harris covers Orphan Girl but sad to say nothing compared to gillian

The talent on that stage beggars belief. This is music for the ages.
When Jason Isbell and Amanda Shires are your backing musicians.......

darlincommitme I think I would go as far as to say that Musgraves is a super star now, to be honest.
@@colten4172 I certainly would drink to that! Always liked Gillian though. Real folk/country mix!
Tennfatmatt I love Gillian, and Rawlings is one of my favorite guitarists.

AMERICANA 🎶 Music at its finest.... I can't believe I just found this. So much talent on that stage !!!!
With all due respect Tom,
Don't be so hard on other musical genres. Peace Love And Understanding ; And keep on Rock'in in the freedom world ✌
Pop country does suck but this is sublime❤
Absolutely phenomenal! Dave Rawlings has a very unique approach to scales and modes, so nice to see Jason just fall right into it... Right there are 4 of my favorite musicians performing today. Thanx!
Mark Powell “unique approach to scales and modes” is a fancy way to say “he’s never met a note he didn’t like”. What an amazing performance!
Great comment, Matt... I agree!!
somehow he has figured out how to make HIS guitar HER harmony backup... plus a little 'take it, David'.....
@@mjcrawfYep, took me a while but somewhere within the last third of 30yrs of playing I realized there aren't any wrong notes they are just just less interesting ones and ones you don't use well.

ah yes, the modes...
I hear these people, together or individually..and this type music, all I can say is, "I'm home"

perfectly said
He's one of my favorites, so unique.
Gillian Welch's talent is otherworldly.
The love of my 20s meets the love my 40s. Country ain't dead yet.
Country is always alive, maybe the music media doesn't see it but it's there in someone's bedroom, barbecue's or anywhere people get together. Play some country tunes.
Good Lord...Amanda's background vocals.....what a great addition to this fantastic song.
so nice to see grey hair on a lady. been watching her since she first came out and it reminds me that we're all getting older but he she just gets better.
Every single one of them is a master in their own rights! Pure talent ♡♡♡
Dave is such a badass guitar player, very underrated.
Of all the versions this ones the best alot of heart and Amanda's back up vocals and violin adds a awesome touch.
This is basically my dream line-up.
Absolutely love this recording. 4 incredible musicians.
The look and smile from David at 4:21 is just... everything.
This is so perfectly done. One line that just gets you.
My God...I've never been quite sure what this song is about, but I always feel like Gillian is looking for a hug after this song....she is more beautiful than any beauty queen...this song destroys me....when I remember all the love I've lost cause I chose looks over love....I think that this song is about being picked over and I'm guilty...but her talent as a musician to me makes her as beautiful as any model.....honestly she doesn't need music either...lm hooked to her words

@@stupidlittleguitar that line - "I wanna do right just not right now" - its so universal. I think everyone has been there at some point.
She got Rawlings, so sit down and shut up
Who could ever give this a thumbs down? Absolutely fabulous!

So much talent on one stage

amen
this isn't real country either then cuz there's four chords in this song ; )
what's a radio?
Lou Reed once said "One cord is fine. Two cords is pushing it. Three cords and you're into jazz." Never-the-less, great version of this song.
Murder's been committed, down on music row.
Dave and Jason are two fine pickers!
wow! love them all! thanks for posting! I've never seen them all together.
Beautiful, the best of the best right here
Two power couples
Thanks for posting this. Would love to see more of these four together. Anytime, anywhere.
Im just a little obsessed with this song right now..listening to all recordings i find on youtube....it sticks with you.beautiful and just idk what makes this song to me so good..because it is?

I’m busted. Me too.
It's wonderful to hear Amanda's violin, and how her voice seems to fit a perfect octave above Gillian Welch's. Four incredible musicians, playing an astounding song.
Didn’t think this song could be performed any better until I heard this with Amanda’s harmonizing and Jason’s picking
It's awfully tempting when collaborating like this to play a standard/classic song. I love it when musicians come together to play one of the artist's original songs. What a gem this is.
I like how the song is left up to our interputation of what "I know all about it, you don't have to shout it' means.
Gillians voice is so spare and natural sung with emotion conviction. The fancy noodling on the instruments never over powers her presence. Fortunately he sings harmony in a voice behind her
Acoustic music at its best
I just realized David takes the melody in the last chorus. Seamless.
goosebumps from beginning to end
I love everything this wonderful lady does! Carrying a strong tadition of folkmusic on her shoulders... She is a true Atlas for me!
im obsessed with this. it haunts me.
Wow! My faves together AND playing that song?! Gotta see that live.(praying)...
I love how whenever you hear songs about Ohio, it just like perfectly encapsulates the depressed as fuck and still kicking, stuck here but trying the hardest we can vibe of living here. Like no one wants to be here but damn we’re just sticking it out and trying our best
Lot's of talent here, great song and performance
Great lyrics, great vocals and awesome players.

Too bad your buddy didn’t tell her how much he liked HER music.
Simply gorgeous! We'll be seeing Gillian again soon in Dallas! Can't wait!
Amanda's harmony makes this tune
Wow, this is so smooth and awesome ! I love it
Yes, I got to see them twice in person. But, that is not enough. I look forward to seeing them post covid. Again! Praying for all the musicians that depend on live concerts for their income!!!!!! As a self employed photographer I know it's tough, but enjoying the gigs I do have right now.
that was pretty freakin' awesome
Gillian just shared this on Twitter
Very cool. Glad she liked it.
This made my night 🌙 🎶😌

That Jason. He's one fine picker. So is David.

This is Utter Class.
Well, Gillian and Dave are in a class of their own! Yes, it is in some genre...maybe Americana or some, I started to say Bluegrass but no. It is...Gillian and Dave. That is the genre...them.
A nice variation from they original. Four good folks.
Great tune....Great band. Very nice indeed.
i'm sure glad gillian welch met dave rawlings. they're two peas a pod and really compliment each other.
27 people want to do right, but not right now
💘
The internet is so so stupid. Then you find a lifeline like this...
There's more talent on that stage then there is in the rest of supposedly "country music".
Americana Royalty
David Rawlings plays notes that don't even have names.
More Fiddle!!!! 3 guitars up there.....get the fiddle up front....
Gillian is great, but the Yearlings album was one of the harshest-sounding recordings I ever heard. Songs are great, but sound better on low-fi.
Who downvotes this?
my goodness @grassflats2 how on earth did you find this?
Wasn't easy. When Jason was Artist in Residence at the Hall of Fame there was a concert that was live streamed. Emmylou Harris was also on it.
Good question and thanks for the reply, which implies there may be more footage out there?
I wanna do right, but not right now----------- Sounds like a Mae West quote or Gillian's ??------------------ but either way I like it
Jason Isbell out-Rawlingsed Dave Rawlings
Body movement
Oh my I just love this. Does anyone know who is on the fiddle/violin?
That's Amanda Shires....Jason Isbell is her husband.
