This would make Glenn Campbell, so happy , my brother brought his friend from college & he taught me to play this , I was in 7th grade , I'm 70 years old now , thank you so much , moe
Can’t forget ol’ John Hartford, he surely would have loved her version too. I enjoyed the memory you shared. What instrument did you learn to play this song on, Moe?
Somebody needs to give the Bass player some props. People don't realize how essential it is to have that clean, crisp beat laid down exactly 'in the pocket', and this woman is spot on. Kudos from a fellow Bass player! ...Oh yeah, and everyone else is kinda nice too lol. This is a great performance all round.
Saw John Hartford solo with just his banjo, fiddle and a sheet of plywood on which he tapped out the rhythm. He said he was grateful to Glen Campbell for all the royalties that allowed him to afford such an elaborate stage set.
Years ago I first became aware of john...I had obviously heard this song, but didnt know who John hartford was.... I bought a VHS banjo instructional taught by this cat named john hartford...in the pack with the VHS, was this paper foldout that you layed out on the floor...it was like a twister game for your feet only....didnt make no sense till I started watching the video...you could learn to tap out rhythm with john.....good times.....heaven became bonafide when john strolled thru those pearly gates....
Molly's music, playing, singing, and smile is what the world needs right now. Can't help but feel like there is still good in the world. What a beautiful talent. A true gift.
Sorry steam loco you don’t have to be the total Tommy Emanuel virtuoso to bring joy to the world and Molly does just that. As a guitarist of 50 years (I started late) I am in awe of Tommy but Molly brings me more simple joy.
Ok. Let's see. Tommy Emmanuel. Then Tommy Emmanuel and Billy Strings. Then Billy Strings and Molly Tuttle. And finally Molly Tuttle. I love RUclips ! Greatings from France.
A few folks have commented on the bass player. She is Missy Raines 8 International Bluegrass Music Award winner for Bass Player of the year. Of course the whole band and Molly sound awesome!
Strong, clear, individual voice; amazing clawhammer fingers; winning smile; and I suspect a deep personality (personal strength from her life experience, just guessing here of course, but I sense it). She's the real deal.
It's not a Glen Campbell cover; it's a John Hartford cover. Glen Campbell recorded it and it became a big, big hit. John Hartford made a boatload of money, was forever grateful to Glen and he moved back to his native Applaciahia where he could record and sing the song he wanted to sing. RIP John!
+Steve Roberts Wow, I just saw your post, I didn't know John had passed, and 15 years ago! So sad, but his song lives on. God bless you, John Hartford.
Magic Molly........just magnificent.......what great musicians.....to you 105 thumbs down egotists......you have no souls......hope you find them soon...........thanks Molly......🇦🇺
How can anyone not like (31) this performance? It is a simply an outstanding interpretation of John Hartford's timeless contribution to our musical heritage.
Molly is her typical superb self in this, both with her as-usual perfect vocal (her relaxed feathery quality with a hint of vibrato is perfect to tell the story in this lyric), and that insane yet effortless picking puts her out in front of most artists today! They're all at the top of their game here. Missy Raines is in the pocket on bass. Wes Corbett is an impressive virtuoso on that banjo! John Mailander is just right, especially on his solo, keeping all the favorite classic parts of the fiddle in the Campbell recording. Well done, guys!
Jim Whitted Molly is a unbelievable talent, but this is one song she butchered. It doesn’t change how talented she is, or how I feel about her. When she has a concert in my neck of the woods, I will be there.
I’ve had this video stored on my phone all these years and this is one of the best renditions I’ve heard, I have played it so many times. Molly is absolutely amazing as are the other members of the group. I’m an old guy, 74. And a huge Glen Campbell fan since high school.
Just discovered Molly a couple of minutes ago, sittig here with tears in my eyes, enjoying this beatuful music, flattering my soul, being so happy that young artists, can play this kinda music so beautifully. Thank so much you for this enjoyment, you defenitely touched my heart. Great.
I will admit I'm not the biggest fan of bluegrass. But this is still one of the greatest music videos on RUclips for me.. so much melody, musicianship, and virtuosity in this rendition, it moves me to my core every time..
Well, all her pronounciations intonations inclanations are precise, charming just like a baby girl to her father - meanwhile like a disciplined lover woman playing the guitar..Simple Melting my hearth! :)
So much of country music before it became pop music and catered to its audience was and is a nataunal treasure. Art has an integrity and power of its own that looses Itself in its condescending to the masses. As in everything we are just sits wonderous eyed observers and travelers and in its good faith its treasure provide.
A very nice ensemble, fronted by the amazing Ms. Tuttle who grew up less than 20 miles from where I sit writing this. I gotta say the immensely talented and dedicated crop of young artists devoting themselves to acoustic music of all kinds is a bright spot in an often tumultuous world.
Molly nailed this timeless classic and the band was spot on! Molly's voice is like an angel on this beautiful song. Had the pleasure of meeting the songs writer "John Hartford" many years ago in Nashville one rainy afternoon at Gruhn's Guitars. Myself and 2 other guys got a private concert. What an interesting talent! We all visited over an hour or more and I learned John was from St. Louis same as me. A very memorable day!
Holy smokes. This is such a tight beautiful rendition of a great, great song. Molly Tuttle has a clean and clear voice and really excellent musicianship all around. I bet I've watched this 15 times in the last week. Damn what a good song!
I'm definitely not into Country music but Gentle on my mind is one of my favourite songs. Never heard anything about Molly Tuttle. But I like this version. nice voice, very good guitar playing. thumbs Up!
Just recently started listening to Molly and I'm really enjoying her style and sound. She's got great chops on guitar, banjo as well as vocally. I hope her career really takes off, because I think she deserves it
I've listen this song a lot when i traveled to London, and now every time i listen to it, it makes me remember my beautiful travel. Its such a great performance. If you see this, keep on Molly !
Molly does such a superb job on this John Hartford classic. While her guitar picking is perfection, as a singer and performer I'm amazed at her memory of all these lyrics that flow like water over steep falls - and, she obviously isn't reading off a teleprompter. Amazing!
The song, Gentle On My Mind, June 19, 1967, sung by Glen Campbell and written by John Hartford, is often interpreted, but your interpretation is the best of all. Your voice fits in really well with the song. Thank you, that you share with such a beautiful voice, such a great song, with us all.
Glen Campbell will forever in my heart will play this song right when he did it live. Along with the most amazing country solo in history. I'm happy this song is still going and that molly did a banging solo to it as well. Lovely to see a female guitarist making a big impact on the real country side of music. I just now got into her and hope this women has nothing bud success and happy years to come!
Am deeply impressed Molly. Some people say got to be listened always to this when America is in trouble...God bless your sensitive female respond to the deceased Glen Campbell! :)
I have listened to this recording at least 100 times. It's about the most perfect performance of a piece I have ever heard. It's as if each member of the group is gentle on the other's minds/
One of the best up and coming artists of the age I am certain and I am so glad I have been blessed to finally be aware of Molly Tuttle and her Sunshine Band. Thank You !!
It's my humble belief this is the best song ever written. We owe so much to John Hartford and Glenn Campbell. Wonderful cover, Molly can sure play a mean guitar and mad props to the guys on the fiddle and banjo.
This would make Glenn Campbell, so happy , my brother brought his friend from college & he taught me to play this , I was in 7th grade , I'm 70 years old now , thank you so much , moe
Can’t forget ol’ John Hartford, he surely would have loved her version too.
I enjoyed the memory you shared. What instrument did you learn to play this song on, Moe?
Molly is 22 y.o. in this great clip, showing great presence and maturity. Brilliant guitar work. Love it.
Somebody needs to give the Bass player some props. People don't realize how essential it is to have that clean, crisp beat laid down exactly 'in the pocket', and this woman is spot on. Kudos from a fellow Bass player! ...Oh yeah, and everyone else is kinda nice too lol. This is a great performance all round.
+choirboysadist ropenflogger That is the indomitable Missy Raines.
+choirboysadist ropenflogger The great, and solid as ever, Missy Raines.
+hapwichryk Thanks!
+Kevin L. Thanks!
I will give Misty Rained her props anyday
This song has helped me through 4 years of grief. Stuck in my head most days 😢 But beautiful, none the less. Rest in peace my son Conor 🙏
So sorry for your loss. Much love from Sweden.
Sincere condolences 💐💙
I am so so sorry for your loss.
Peace to you and your family.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Hope you and your family are ok💕

Molly's music, playing, singing, and smile is what the world needs right now. Can't help but feel like there is still good in the world. What a beautiful talent. A true gift.
Her flat picking is good, but she was completely destroyed by Tommy Emmanuel in another video. Everything is relative.
Sorry steam loco you don’t have to be the total Tommy Emanuel virtuoso to bring joy to the world and Molly does just that. As a guitarist of 50 years (I started late) I am in awe of Tommy but Molly brings me more simple joy.
Ok. Let's see. Tommy Emmanuel. Then Tommy Emmanuel and Billy Strings. Then Billy Strings and Molly Tuttle. And finally Molly Tuttle. I love RUclips ! Greatings from France.
You can find Molly Tuttle and Tommy Emmanuel as well.
A few folks have commented on the bass player. She is Missy Raines 8 International Bluegrass Music Award winner for Bass Player of the year. Of course the whole band and Molly sound awesome!
That's Missy Raines on bass! She's on top of her game for sure!!! I just love to hear her play with anyone ,especially MIss Molly! Good golly!!
I heard that voice, looked at that sweet face, and I was instantly captivated. What an angel.
Just discovered Molly. She's great.
ditto
Thanks for posting she is awesome talent
I discovered her about 6 months ago. I'm so glad.
Strong, clear, individual voice; amazing clawhammer fingers; winning smile; and I suspect a deep personality (personal strength from her life experience, just guessing here of course, but I sense it). She's the real deal.
Could not agree more, clearly a consummate live performer , now waiting for a London / UK gig
Molly Tuttle, ladies and gentlemen. MOLLY TUTTLE!!!!!!!!!
This is such a perfect performance .. by Molly for sure, but also every instrumentalist !! It is just fabulous. Brilliant!!
Voice as pure as it gets and throw in she’s top 5 as far as guitar pickers in my book.Pretty special young lady.
It's not a Glen Campbell cover; it's a John Hartford cover. Glen Campbell recorded it and it became a big, big hit. John Hartford made a boatload of money, was forever grateful to Glen and he moved back to his native Applaciahia where he could record and sing the song he wanted to sing. RIP John!
+Steve Roberts Wow, I just saw your post, I didn't know John had passed, and 15 years ago! So sad, but his song lives on. God bless you, John Hartford.
Haven't listened to Molly in some time she's seems to have matured a bit...her voice is so gorgeous
Rolly Polly l
Appalachia? LOL....John Hartford (Harford) was born in New York City, and lived his childhood in St. Louis, Mo.
R.I.P. Glen Campbell
Molly is one of the best guitar pickers I have seen in recent years. She has a lovely voice and to top it off her smile is so sweet.
Check out Billy Strings
That smile when she gets that first reaction from the audience is priceless.
Isn't Molly just amazing?
Magic Molly........just magnificent.......what great musicians.....to you 105 thumbs down egotists......you have no souls......hope you find them soon...........thanks Molly......🇦🇺
How can anyone not like (31) this performance? It is a simply an outstanding interpretation of John Hartford's timeless contribution to our musical heritage.
Every now and then an artist comes along that stops you in your tracks. This is undiluted greatness.
John Hartford is smiling down on this, and he's really proud. What great pickers. Thanks for being around.
Molly is her typical superb self in this, both with her as-usual perfect vocal (her relaxed feathery quality with a hint of vibrato is perfect to tell the story in this lyric), and that insane yet effortless picking puts her out in front of most artists today! They're all at the top of their game here. Missy Raines is in the pocket on bass. Wes Corbett is an impressive virtuoso on that banjo! John Mailander is just right, especially on his solo, keeping all the favorite classic parts of the fiddle in the Campbell recording. Well done, guys!
HOLY CRAP killer music.
This isn’t gentle on my mind, it is racing through my mind.
I thought... Did she start the song too fast. It should be a laid back song. We love Molly.
Jim Whitted Molly is a unbelievable talent, but this is one song she butchered. It doesn’t change how talented she is, or how I feel about her. When she has a concert in my neck of the woods, I will be there.
The OLDIES JUST SEEM TO GET BETTER AND BETTER DAY BY DAY !
THANKS FOR SHARING MUSIC AND DELIGHTFUL MOTION EXPERIENCE !
I’ve had this video stored on my phone all these years and this is one of the best renditions I’ve heard, I have played it so many times. Molly is absolutely amazing as are the other members of the group. I’m an old guy, 74. And a huge Glen Campbell fan since high school.
The lady on the bass is on the same level as the other musicians in this performance: Top of the top. What a wonderful piece of music!
The best version of this song I've ever heard...
Have you heard the Petersen’s?
Listen to the Band Perry's version , you'll change your mind.
@@zaneturner4478 I will check that out
I met John Hartford once at Merlefest. What a gentleman he was! This is a great rendition of an amazing song.
John Hartford is smiling up in heaven every time he hears someone do a great cover of his songs.
I love that she's always smiling as she sings and plays.
Molly Tuttle incredible talent I been watching her and AJ Lee and company..
Greetings from Ireland
You are the future. ..
Kerry Evans I'm
When you’re playing comforts people you’ve succeeded!✝️💕☮️🎸
Molly has a sweet face with a smile and voice to match. The way she plays that guitar is like water flowing down a mountain stream.
Very well done Ladies and Gentlemen. John Hartford would be proud.
Every single instrument in this enchantment is stringed… which the exception of the voice, which is a divine manifestation.
I always wanted to ask Molly why she left the heavenly choir and came down here.
It’ s even hard to memorize all those words of the song. Beautiful singing. Thanks all.
AMAZING! thanks
Why have I never heard of this talented young woman before?
Missy's smile says everything. This is a superb performance.
This woman must really be an angel!
Bass player absolutely killing it
Glen would surely be smiling looking down on this performance. The circle is unbroken.
Billy Strings brought me here, and im more than happy to listen this
Molly you are GREATE . Regards from New Zealand.
Just discovered Molly a couple of minutes ago, sittig here with tears in my eyes, enjoying this beatuful music, flattering my soul, being so happy that young artists, can play this kinda music so beautifully. Thank so much you for this enjoyment, you defenitely touched my heart. Great.
I will admit I'm not the biggest fan of bluegrass. But this is still one of the greatest music videos on RUclips for me.. so much melody, musicianship, and virtuosity in this rendition, it moves me to my core every time..
So pleased to see such an appreciative audience.
I love the way she pronounces the word "memory" in full. Most other versions pronounce it as "mem'ry". Simply gorgeous cover.
That's her time at Berklee showing itself.
Well, all her pronounciations intonations inclanations are precise, charming just like a baby girl to her father - meanwhile like a disciplined lover woman playing the guitar..Simple Melting my hearth! :)

Today is the very first time I ever heard Molly Tuttle sing this song. I had to hear it THREE TIMES because her voice was so angelic and smooth.
Oh wow! Molly Tuttle can play and sing! Fantastic! Just discovered her.
She has genuine talent. Something rare in the entrainment industry these days. AKA actual talent.
Molly nailed this timeless classic and the band was spot on! Molly's voice is like an angel on this beautiful song. Had the pleasure of meeting the songs writer "John Hartford" many years ago in Nashville one rainy afternoon at Gruhn's Guitars. Myself and 2 other guys got a private concert.

Glen would be proud!!
I love you Molly...from Chile a hug and I never tire of saying that you are a beautiful angel..
This rendition gave me chills.
I'm definitely not into Country music but Gentle on my mind is one of my favourite songs. Never heard anything about Molly Tuttle. But I like this version. nice voice, very good guitar playing. thumbs Up!
Wolf Simon good music is good music, regardless of genre . This is good music.
stunning stuff.. and the girl is beautiful singer 💐
Just recently started listening to Molly and I'm really enjoying her style and sound. She's got great chops on guitar, banjo as well as vocally. I hope her career really takes off, because I think she deserves it
Beautiful voice, excellent song, brilliant musicians. Anyone who doesn’t like this has something wrong with them. Thanks
I've listen this song a lot when i traveled to London, and now every time i listen to it, it makes me remember my beautiful travel. Its such a great performance. If you see this, keep on Molly !
Wow! Molly sings with so much urgency and passion she knocks me out. Thanks!
Molly does such a superb job on this John Hartford classic. While her guitar picking is perfection, as a singer and performer I'm amazed at her memory of all these lyrics that flow like water over steep falls - and, she obviously isn't reading off a teleprompter. Amazing!
Biggest insult in the world to a singer is saying you wonder how they remember the lyrics Reading off a teleprompter? You understand nothing.
That bass player is amazing!
That looks like the great Missy Raines,
Thanks! Man, she knows how to work that bass!
missy Raines , I think
She's fantastic.
Dam speed and grace. Tears running from my eyes every time I hear this song.
The song, Gentle On My Mind, June 19, 1967, sung by Glen Campbell and written by John Hartford, is often interpreted, but your interpretation is the best of all. Your voice fits in really well with the song.
Thank you, that you share with such a beautiful voice, such a great song, with us all.
Love Molly and her music, what an American treasure. :)
Glen Campbell will forever in my heart will play this song right when he did it live. Along with the most amazing country solo in history. I'm happy this song is still going and that molly did a banging solo to it as well. Lovely to see a female guitarist making a big impact on the real country side of music. I just now got into her and hope this women has nothing bud success and happy years to come!
i think Molly's brain is just a little faster than the whole rest of us . always fantastic.
One of my favorite John Hartford songs
this is the first thing that made me cry in a while
Am deeply impressed Molly. Some people say got to be listened always to this when America is in trouble...God bless your sensitive female respond to the deceased Glen Campbell! :)
Molly Tuttle is really something special
I have listened to this recording at least 100 times. It's about the most perfect performance of a piece I have ever heard. It's as if each member of the group is gentle on the other's minds/
Love this version ...amazing ..all fantastic musicians..that lady bass player loves her work 👍😊😊☘️☘️.. nice to see happy players ..thank you .👍💯🤣☘️🇮🇪
Missy Raines holding it all down on Bass. Brilliant.
great performance, pocket is super solid, and a very nicely phrased banjo solo. Obviously Molly kills it.
What brilliant musicians. Whoever hits the dislike, go away from bluegrass, please, it is beyond your heart's comprehension.
One of the best up and coming artists of the age I am certain and I am so glad I have been blessed to finally be aware of Molly Tuttle and her Sunshine Band. Thank You !!
makes me feel american. born in san francisco but when I listen to this son it reminds of being american
Molly Tuttle an incredible musician .
It's my humble belief this is the best song ever written. We owe so much to John Hartford and Glenn Campbell. Wonderful cover, Molly can sure play a mean guitar and mad props to the guys on the fiddle and banjo.
Oh. 6 years. Ago. This is so good.
mbsnyderc, she is great and so is Molly, love them all. This music is so "at peace".
So beautiful Molly Thank you
The classic's always stand the test of time.
Somewhere, across the river, John is smiling.
John is probably piloting a Paddle Wheeler up and down the River with a guy named Sam Clemens.
That puts chills up my arms. The quality of this group is as good as it gets great song with a bluegrass twist.
Great version! Definitely my favorite.
Molly, you are an Angel to my heart...
God bless you !!!
Once you see Molly perform, you will have her on your mind.
Molly owns this song. Thanks, John!💜
How can there possibly be 70 people do not lot love this amazing, outstanding, rendition of this classic. Wonderful!
Chuck Fedler, because they have ears that are functional.
One word........fantastic!
Another winner, Glenn, another kindred spirit, thanks!
I must admit I stumbled across this but I'm so glad I did , pure shining brilliance I do believe .
Doesn't matter HOW you got here! I'm grateful as hell for my lucky stumbles :)
I sure love me some Molly Damn this young'n can pick the hell out of a guitar !!
