I was at this concert with a stellar lineup, but David Lindley stole the show in my eyes!! 🌟 RIP David Lindley ~ I miss you so much ❤ No one in the world like you.
@@timothylewis2450 My different POV….is we were so lucky this master of all guitars played live and we of different generations were soooo lucky to see him live or even listen to his recordings! I was very lucky to see him with various other performers several times . And even have him sign a couple of my LPs. May David Lindley’s music touch the ears and hearts of those who haven’t heard or seen him yet! Big thanks to those who post his live performances…in those he still lives on..and on!
Cindy Schneider- Someday I wanna find out how Jackson & David bumped into each other...other than the fact that it was The Master’s plan- then a blessing for those of us listening thru so many years.
@@jackrambler3262 I have an an answer to your question that is somewhat vague, so I’ll give Cindy Schneider a couple of days to come forward and answer because she probably knows a hell of a lot more than I do.
@@jackrambler3262 I knew I had read that story somewhere before! www.fretboardjournal.com/features/jackson-browne-meeting-david-lindley-first-time/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CI%20%5Bfirst%5D%20saw%20David,the%20Nitty%20Gritty%20Dirt%20band.
@Jack Rambler and Cindy S. Jackson explains how he first met David Lindley and what he first felt when he heard him play alone in his dressing room. As I said , it is vague , without any details . It is contained in the video "Farther On” from the documentary “Going Home”, in Jackson’s words. Jackson explains that a friend (of his) brought Lindley to his dressing room and asked if he could play for him. At that point, Jackson explains what he felt for the first time upon hearing him. Sorry, Cindy S. , but I put Jack R. first because he was the one who first asked the question about how did they just bumped into each other. I originally had you first and I apologize for reconsidering . “Reconsider Me”. ruclips.net/video/4TbQHF3Y9oo/видео.html
Dave, our MAGICAL MUSICAL MUNCHKIN, has gone on ahead damn it. Driving that Mercury '49 up an down the streets of gold and and tuning-up some heavenly harp with those amazing God given fingers. Thanks for the visit Mr. David. We are blessed and.....
Rest in peace, you wonderful human being! I feel so fortunate to have seen El Rayo X in a bar on a college campus in the 80's. They blew the roof off the joint, obviously. To this day, hearing Mercury Blues live is one of the concert-going highlights of my life.
I saw them on this tour in 99 in Nampa, ID at The Idaho Center Amphitheater. It was hands-down, one of the best live shows I've ever seen! This was one of their encores. Talk about leaving a concert on a high note...
I saw them all together in concert at the Jones Beach Theater, Long Island NY. I don't remember what year it was, but it was the best concert I've ever seen. All my favorite artists. What a night!
This event at Red Rocks took place on September 12 of 1999. I saw these same musicians at the Gorge in eastern Washington a few weeks earlier on August 25th, 1999. It was quite a show!
When I was a child, my parents had a '53 Mercury Deluxe with V-8 with manual overdrive. My Dad ran the Hell out of that car; He also ran a little SHINE in that capacious trunk.
Since no one else has made a comment within a year , I’m guessin’ I’m the only one out there who knows what “ SHINE’ means. I’m from Kentucky . At one time everyone was in fear of the revenuer , a government agent , during Prohibition. They were searching for stills to destroy them. Stills were all copper pots used to distill corn into 100 proof alcohol . When I was about 10 , on a trip to western KY , my father pointed out smoke or steam that was coming off of a mountain side and telling me about moonshiners.At that time you didn’t have to do it by the light of the moon. When the heat was on about making illegal whisky , I just think it was done under the light of the moon . Moonshine was still being made in the 1960’s because of the many “dry” counties in Kentucky which still exist today. When I was a teenager , I was shown a very small house in West Virginia devoid of any vegetation , but to which hundreds of pounds of sugar (instead of corn) were delivered weekly to make moonshine . To this day , August 27 , 2019 , you can still buy 100 proof moonshine in a liquor store , in Lexington Kentucky . Now it is considered part of our heritage . I’m not sure , but I think it may have a cult following . It’s everywhere , but you have to know that it is just grain alcohol , which is also readily availably in any liguor store , at least in Lexington KY.
kitano0 if you look on RUclips you can find Shawn Colvin as a member of Richard Thompson's band, that would surprise you too I bet. In a real good way!
Just before I herniated a disc in Belfast, Maine 4 weeks ago Commander Pecor, USN 20 year Vet Frigate Commander and Annapolis grad "I drive ships" he said. I drove him about 10 miles and he bought me a couple of those big Twisted Teas and a pack of cigarettes. How's that for 'benefits?' Well, he's still with DOD and now out building me a new Frigate USS (can't tell you) We 'know' her name and she is fast fast fast like a fucking sea Mercury. When these badass fucking ships 'breakaway' after un-reps, they accelerate for all they're worth right up to 35 knots with enough firepower to end a war all by herself. They make a hard turn and stay bolt upright while blaring their 'breakaway' song (always badass rock songs) that sounds like it's being amplified by Bruce Springsteen's full Madison Square Garden kit. And when the twin turbines spool up and whine like Goddesses on the hunt you just stare in awe. Anyway, I'm getting a new one of those with a credit card for gas.
#1 most badass drum performance I've ever seen/heard. Sounds like a Cosmic locomotive comin' down the tracks straight out of Heaven to take us all home. All aboard!!! Kisses. Arthur. Peace
I saw these guys on this tour, which was in 1999 which you probably know but thank you SO much for posting this! The show I saw at The Idaho Center in Nampa, Idaho was amazing! Good memories..
Dennis, Lindley is more than a slide player. He plays banjo, fiddle, mandolin, bouzouki, saz, chumbush, and more. Check out his "official bootleg" live recordings with Wally Ingram or Hani Naser on percussion. I saw him play at one of these solo/duet shows; I had brought along a couple of young teenagers, and Dave and Wally gave the boys guitar picks and drumsticks, autographed their T shirts, answered their questions, and conversed with the boys as equals. It was a fine thing to see!
Hello again, good 'un. I just want to add that your experience is typical of the late, great Mr. Dave. Kind, gracious, and also funny as heck. No one will ever replace him.
Like a cosmic locomotive coming to bring us all home to David's secret getaway in some un charted Hobbit hole in deep deep deep space surrounded by Leprechaun grace and music and love and bliss and unlimited kisses. Peace David Shawn Callie Arthur forever with you dear sweet Angel of badassedness. Kisses
I am proud to say that I'm in this audience! Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado! 1999
I was at this concert with a stellar lineup, but David Lindley stole the show in my eyes!! 🌟 RIP David Lindley ~ I miss you so much ❤ No one in the world like you.
Those double knit sports coats gave David special powers.
Rest in Rock, David Lindley! What an amazing talent.
So sad. Legendary.

@@bakokat6982 Well said.
There will never be another. RIP. We got to meet him. Great dude.
RIP David, cruise that Mercury into the great beyond
...and that's why we love rock 'n roll!!
In The UK We Are Convinced that David Lindley is The Messiah of Steel Guitar.. The man is An Absolute Legend.
I bow down to the genius of this man, indeed I do!
Lindley is steel guitar.
He absolutely is! Seen him several times on his own
Here in California USA we feel the same way!
Yeah, that's accurate.
As good as it gets. What a talent this man was. RIP David Lindley.
El Rayo x is one of my favourite recordings
And very greasy
RIP David. Your legacy will live on forever. Was lucky to hear this live at Great Woods in Manfield, MA on this same tour.
boy, I don't know how you could go wrong with that lineup. Goosebumps.
When Bonnie steps in with her slide to answer David's steel. Absolute goosebumps!
Can't say enough about how much I love this! Just WOW!
Gonna miss this great guy...
You are decidedly in good company. Sometimes, I still can't believe he's no longer among us poor deprived Earthers...
Another great version of Mercury Blues!! Stomper!! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🤘
RIP David Lindley. 😢
What a fabulous line-up Lindley, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt and Shawn Colvin hard to beat !
And at Red Rocks yeah
I saw this tour... Still to this day in my top 5 best shows. Bruce Hornsby was also on the bill.
And Bruce Hornsby!
It doesn't get any better than this!
Fly high, David 🎼♥️
The Maestro with his talented backing Band
I went to this tour as a huge Shawn Colvin fan. But David Lindley man
Saw the Running on Empty tour. Lindley stole the show.
David Lindley is the best steel player I've ever seen or heard. His vocals are un-matchable...he's really good.
Never seen this before, I like Bonnie Raitt doing a Dave impression.
RIP David Lindley !!
I saw this show in Santa Barbara. I'd have to say it was one of my top ten ever.
I met Jackson Browne in Gaviota, CA. Also had a crush on Bonnie Raitt!
@@user-ip5dm6jf8k we all had a crush on Bonnie Raitt.
"The wonder that is Lindley!" That's right!
@CindyS. Yes indeed and agreed.

Billy Gibbons wrote Sharp Dressed man about David Lindley.That's absolutely true ,or it should be,and these days,that's all that counts.
Goose bumps
Love this performance...it's just got so much energy...the drum beat is killer and Shawn Colvin with Bonnie Raiit!!! Yowza!
Damn, this is Red Rocks just outside town!! I missed it!!
Red Rocks has to rate as one of the nation's best dance halls ~ awesome place for music
A whole bunch of my favorite players, and a song by the great American rural blues singer and guitar player K. C. Douglas. Love it. Fuzzy
Forget Clapton, Lindley is god!
Clapton who?

The Prince of Polyester!
I got to see this! I saw them back-to-back night up at Red Rocks. This was the second night. Awesome!👏🏼
Not seen this before? Brilliant. Big shout for monster drumming.
Holy Cats, what a Lineup!
Holy crap! Lindley is a god, and Bonnie Raitt is among the best slide players...ever!
the best steelguitar ever!.....
How in the @#$& did I miss this show? That song would have been worth the price of admission alone.
It was.

Here's to David.
Saw this never before ! Thanks !

Red Rocks!!! The Very best Ledgends (musicians)! Love
Now that is a band..............
Add Waddy Watchel to the line up. Saw this tour in 1999 in Concord, CA. It was, of course, fantastic!

Damn it..."David Lindley is a bad man lol...he's a fucking awesome steel guitar man!*****
David Lindley was so awesome what a talent
Our David. We miss you so much. I cannot place this if Rosanne in room . She will break down. .
I am so sorry for your loss. ❤
No words can be enough!!
I saw this tour at the infamous Merriweather Post Pavilion in '99
Saw this show at the Santa Barbara Bowl. Epic! Highlight: Bonnie and Shawn dancing on Bruce's grand piano. Lindley wasn't bad either!
Hey, me too!
Priceless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Colvin surprised the hell out of me...I've never seen her rock like that...always saw her as a folk artist.
kitano0 if you look on RUclips you can find Shawn Colvin as a member of Richard Thompson's band, that would surprise you too I bet. In a real good way!
@@goodun6081 We saw her open for Thompson in the mid-'90s. I'm glad to see that they're touring together now.
Most badass drum beat EVER!!!!!
When the drummer laying down such a solid beat with the hit of his TomTom
Talk about a superstar lineup!!!
immenso

thought he was going to take that thing even higher.. so great
Damn that was good
Rockin' at The Rocks.
#1 most badass drum performance I've ever seen/heard. Sounds like a Cosmic locomotive comin' down the tracks straight out of Heaven to take us all home. All aboard!!! Kisses. Arthur. Peace
Wally Ingram, if I remember correctly. He and Lindley did a couple of albums together and toured as a duo. Fantastic.
Classic
Ummmm..........I'm speechless.
Listening (again, still) in 2023. Still needs some Papa John Creach rock violin.
Flawless
I don’t know if it ever was recorded but…John Trudell , added a verse to Mercury Blues, can’t remember it verbatim but it was all J. T.
And at Red Rock.
Thank you for making my day.
Those were the days...
And Bonnie is pretty good too!
Mike Haines- Yeah, Bonnie’s Always Great...
❤no lies mates
In the Great Tradition of Comments, someone please tell me which of these brilliant players is "underrated".
I mean, fuckin WOW!!!!
I saw these guys on this tour, which was in 1999 which you probably know but thank you SO much for posting this! The show I saw at The Idaho Center in Nampa, Idaho was amazing! Good memories..
Bonnie has that slow slide style like Lowell. Absolutely fucking rips.
I hope I NEVER have to meet any of the 9 people who DON'T LIKE this (08/24/21
In Red Rocks....twist twist
No wonder Warren Zevon like David Lindley so much!
Now they're reunited in the Band of the Great Beyond.
Rock on!
Jackson on the Teisco 😜
I am 99% sure I was at this show! unless this lineup played Red Rocks more than once....
Is this available on a dvd?
There is no-BODY like David Linley! I know, I looked.
I had da record & posted wayaway for the tshirt too
Lindley is a badass. Greatest slide guitar player alive. Bonnie ain't so bad herself.

btw: How cute is Shawn Colvin? It's like asking how big the multiverse is. Kisses
I produced Shawn once
Cool. What record was that?
