oh my word, I didn't know he passed....I've lost so many so close to me...his going is another notch in the wheel. What an appropriate song. Praise.....
David has been been gone nearly 3 months now. The sting hasn't subsided. Doubt it ever will. I listen to this one about once a week. Like this song goes "I've got memories to last me".
i weep everytime i listen to this. it is, in my opinion, one of the best videos on youtube. Zevon was such a brilliant song writer and this interpretation, by an equally brilliant performer, is absolute magic. there is no other way to describe it.
Yeah, I can't add much to that. This is music that makes you hate everyone that didn't buy/doesn't like people like this. There are damn few of them, and for the most part they languish in relative obscurity. Dave shoulda been bigger than the Beatles...
I click this up regularly. Immediately receiving the full dose of what David has offered to us. Beyond my little head I sense this going out past me, out into the 'everything' far and wide at the speed of sound. Or, as David ment it to be, 'at the speed of love!' Does that even make sence?
It's so very bitter sweet that as our mortality looms ever near, there's a comfort in looking back and again we're reminded of the legacy of so many who made an ever lasting impact on music which will outlast us all.🙏✌️
Jeez….. he was so masterful at whatever he chose to pursue. Great job! Learning this tonight on lap steel, love the right hand technique, gives it so much propulsion.
There's the difference. Watch Lindley playing in the USA and you hear the audience talk all the way through. European audience is actually listening to him. Great stuff.
I always remember when he said to an audience in Tokyo, “I’d like to do a Professor Longhair tune,” and when the audience cheered he said, delighted, “I like that! People here know who Professor Longhair is.”
@@dcozy, In an interview David once said "Japanese audiences are the best in the world. They know everything you've ever done, no matter how obscure, and at the end of every song, they clap for 10 seconds, and then it goes dead silent and they wait for you to play the next one. And at the end, they riot!"
We just keep losing musical treasures. Warren Zevon...my Golden God, my hero...David Lindley... amazing musician..gone...both gone. I weep at the irreplaceable TIME, irreplaceable MUSIC, irreplaceable TROUBADOURS. Gordon Lightfoot..gone...Tom Petty..gone. But my greatest sorrow.. Warren..golden ray of musical sunshine...no longer striding the midnight streets of his beloved L.A. Lost to me forever now... Lost to us all....THANKS TO THE VAST INDIFFERENCE OF HEAVEN. CRUEL, TO TAKE THEM AWAY FROM US.
I first encountered David Lindley in the late 60s as a member of the San Francisco band Kaleidoscope. David plays anything with strings --acoustic and electric guitars, dulcimer, banjo, fiddle - and plays them very well. In the 70's, backing artists like Jackson Browne, he sometimes got billed as the Lindley Brothers because of the array of instruments he played during live sets.
@@peha524 , promoter Doug Reynolds, who hosts the Uke Festivals, recently held a benefit T-shirt sale and donation drive to help pay Lindley's medical bills; David is suffering from long Covid and has been unable to gig for several years.
Was anybody else amazed when they heard "nothing left but the sound of the front door closing forever"? Just because it's a momentary thing and Warren stretches it out to lasting an eternity.
@@jamesmurphy186 you should have asked "Are you related to WZ 'forever.'.." and you would have stretched it out to lasting an eternity (apparently). Lol.
I first heard this song when my dad was dying and still half a decade later I find myself seeking it out on RUclips when I'm missing him. Such a beautiful song.
Warren Zevon ,in his songs, warned us of all the things that occur in our world every day under our naive noses. He was ahead of his time with words that cut to the deepest of the human core. Short life though..
I came here for the song, which I love, and at first thought "oh I don't really care for his voice" and then several minutes later I realized I'd listened to the whole thing and loved it. Excellent.
I'm a big zevon. love his voice. i heard mr. dave do this in Milwaukee about a decade ago, and it's stuck with me since that day. it's like Brothers Under The Bridge, to me, for me, lindley's version is the one.
I personally don’t think anyone knows where we go after we die or even if we do. But if there is some place after death, I hope I get to go wherever Warren and David are.
Been thinking of you these past few days,and magically, you and G.E. Smith appeared! Then, to hear you play out and sing Zevon's tune, made my day. Ain't it the truth,Dave. We gotta carry on, regardless. Blessings to you,wherever you roam. Play on ,brother!
I've never seen him at a festival (where somebody is always talking no matter who is playing). In all the clubs in which I've seen him the audience has been very respectful (as i shis due!). Cheers. :)
how good does it get? lindley and wally ingram playing percussion at continental prahran melbourne circa '88 aprox. $26 one of the best things i have seen. rack of weissenborns, turkish czas? unbelievable talent; should have guessed listening to 'running on empty' years ago, but my musical knowledge and appreciation would not have permitted.
I've seen Lindley 10 times in the last 2 years in the US. NOBODY was talking through his set. Coulda heard a pin drop. Where did you see him where people were talking?
RIP Dave. I’ve been listening to this cover once a month for close to ten years. Such a master and one-of-kind. You’ll be missed.
Same here. I will miss him, too.
Same here - I’ve reached for it maybe 100 times through the years for comfort & balm ♥️
oh my word, I didn't know he passed....I've lost so many so close to me...his going is another notch in the wheel. What an appropriate song. Praise.....
David has been been gone nearly 3 months now. The sting hasn't subsided. Doubt it ever will. I listen to this one about once a week. Like this song goes "I've got memories to last me".
Anybody know what tuning?
This is the first thing I put on when I got today’s sad news about Mr. Dave.
i weep everytime i listen to this. it is, in my opinion, one of the best videos on youtube. Zevon was such a brilliant song writer and this interpretation, by an equally brilliant performer, is absolute magic. there is no other way to describe it.
Man, I can’t stop listening to this and I can’t stop crying. Achingly beautiful.
Yes
Yeah, I can't add much to that. This is music that makes you hate everyone that didn't buy/doesn't like people like this. There are damn few of them, and for the most part they languish in relative obscurity. Dave shoulda been bigger than the Beatles...
😂😂😂
Yes pure f****ing magic!
Miss this guy! My first concert was Jackson Browne in 1980. His love for David was unmistakable.
RIP David Lindley. This song has always made me happy listening to it, and made me cry, too. Now, especially.
We will always love and remember David Lindley. Thank you so much for your Musical Gifts.
The Hank Garland Family
Greatest slide player ever on this planet...no joke...hero of my guitarplaying youth...lord, we miss you so 😇✌👍👍👍
first tune i went to when i saw he'd passed away, rip
RIP David Lindley. As talented a picker as ever was.
Just look at those fingers working with those strings to make this magic!
Oh! David Lindley can put so much love into a guitar playing. A living legend indeed.
How lucky am I, to have lived on the same planet at the same time as a songwriter like Zevon and a musician like Mr. Dave?
Very, very lucky indeed.
A truly inspired artist
Absolutely right!
Yes indeed. I could say more, but I think it has already been said. Warren was a genius with faults.
I click this up regularly. Immediately receiving the full dose of what David has offered to us. Beyond my little head I sense this going out past me, out into the 'everything' far and wide at the speed of sound. Or, as David ment it to be, 'at the speed of love!' Does that even make sence?
David Lindley understands how music works - and what it's for.
He’s gone. What a loss. I will still have this.
Rest in music, you damn genius.
It's so very bitter sweet that as our mortality looms ever near, there's a comfort in looking back and again we're reminded of the legacy of so many who made an ever lasting impact on music which will outlast us all.🙏✌️
Jeez….. he was so masterful at whatever he chose to pursue. Great job! Learning this tonight on lap steel, love the right hand technique, gives it so much propulsion.
David now accompanies Warren in the vast indifference of heaven. R. I. P.
Zevon was a master of human frailties... and david played and sung beautifully.
Well said, Sam.
RIP Mr. Dave! Hope you're with Warren right now, brother.
Exactly one year ago, on this day you left this planet.
I’m here to remember you and say than you for your music.
We miss you, David. ❤
God I love this rendition. Keep coming back every fortnight or so.
Brings tears to my eyes
To the 19 people who disliked this video. I’ll give you the hug you need.
Give them the hug they deserve, but not the hug they need.
Heh!!!!!!
@@jg300ascout1I think that is what was meant lol
"I remember times when I was happy" God.....that's true
God Bless Mr Dave. RIP 3.3.23, 78 years. Thank you so much. 😢♥️ 🎸

@@goodun2974 Absolutely true.
RIP, one of my musical heroes. I am sad today.
First time hearing this gent, warren is probably my favorite musician here we fuckin go.
Best thing on youtube.
It really is.
A great musician playing a great song written by a close friend.
We just keep losing musical treasures.
Warren Zevon...my Golden God, my hero...David Lindley... amazing musician..gone...both gone. I weep at the irreplaceable TIME, irreplaceable MUSIC, irreplaceable TROUBADOURS.

Lost to me forever now...
Lost to us all....THANKS TO THE VAST INDIFFERENCE OF HEAVEN.
CRUEL, TO TAKE THEM AWAY FROM US.
A master’s rendition of a masterpiece.🎉❤And now the master is gone🥲
We will miss you greatly my good man. Man, you were fantastic.
Rest in peace, David. Thank you for all the great music.

I know my comment is 2yrs late but yes, well spotted.
Are you related to WZ?
@@jamesmurphy186 you should have asked "Are you related to WZ 'forever.'.." and you would have stretched it out to lasting an eternity (apparently). Lol.
@@jamesmurphy186 sadly no, I am not...except in the way we are all related to him.
Just heard the news, he will be missed ! RIP Mr Dave, no one will ever sound like you.
Lindley brilliance from a majical Zevon song !
I first heard this song when my dad was dying and still half a decade later I find myself seeking it out on RUclips when I'm missing him. Such a beautiful song.
This is so beautiful, it makes me ache. RIP dear one.
One of my favourite performances on RUclips. Beautiful, Melancholy, Masterful. thank you thank you thank you
I love the homage to "Desperados Under the Eaves" Lindley is the man, and the ultimate when it comes to guitar tone.
Yeah, that's brilliant :)
yes.
I must be tone deaf, but where does he do desperadoes? Timstamp?
@@UnbelievablyGauche 5:03 and onwards you’ll hear it
When Lindley, Bonnie, Jackson, Bruce do Warren it touches me.
Warren Zevon ,in his songs, warned us of all the things that occur in our world every day under our naive noses. He was ahead of his time with words that cut to the deepest of the human core.
Short life though..
Love and peace to you Mr. Dave, wherever you are. I am so very glad to have been here with you for awhile.
If it has strings , David can play it..and play it masterfully ! Seem him live a number of times and am ever and always elevated by the experience !
Super tune, man what a player!
Damn I miss Warren Zevon. Thanks Mr Dave!
This is perfect. My jaw is on the floor.
Brilliant musician. Have always loved Lindley’s music. And now I found Warren Zevon too, thanks.
Its so nice to hear people think the way I do, well... when it comes to lindley and zevon
I came here for the song, which I love, and at first thought "oh I don't really care for his voice" and then several minutes later I realized I'd listened to the whole thing and loved it.
Excellent.
lindley owns this song, as far as i'm concerned. a master.
Sorry, but that's taking things too far. *Nothing* beats the unique timbre of Warren's voice - at least when it comes to his own songs anyway.
I'm a big zevon. love his voice. i heard mr. dave do this in Milwaukee about a decade ago, and it's stuck with me since that day. it's like Brothers Under The Bridge, to me, for me, lindley's version is the one.
I will soon forget. Im feeling lucky to have been there.
Play this at my funeral, please. Thank you, Warren and Mr. Dave!
great rendition of a tune I always felt deserved more; really love the Desperadoes ending
sublime !!
David died today, and my eyes are leaking.....
Sensational..this is rhythem and the lyrics are terrific..David Lindley a legend and great guitar player..and singer
Whatever you do out there; don't dislike this!
David loves the strings and the strings really love him. When they touch he is my 'magical musical munchkin' and the world gets better.
"But they don't live around here" at 4:50. Just perfect.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this. Anything with strings Lindley
Lindley is a near deity. So nice to listen without a bunch of conversation mucking up the sound.
How lucky are we , to have WZ’s original, and this as well?
Fly free now, Maestro 😢
I’m giving you a thumbs up for me, and for my late friend Bohica. He knew. He taught us all sir.
WOW goosebumps every time , thanks for posting
Better than Zevon’s in my opinion.
Would've killed to've been there.
@@UnbelievablyGauche would’ve been sick to hear Warren sing this with Lindley playing slide…. Lindley’s version is better IMO!!!
Damn he can play
Lindley's right hand is a machine
❤❤❤❤❤
I personally don’t think anyone knows where we go after we die or even if we do. But if there is some place after death, I hope I get to go wherever Warren and David are.
Love how almost he quotes "Desperados Under the Eves" at the end.
Love Dave. I have often gone to see him by myself.
Thank you for uploading
Every song of David's takes you on a journey....this one is no different..there,s no one like him...thanks for sharing :))
listening to that lovely guitar ... heaven is not that indifferent.
Thanks for sharing, this is a touching song and David Lindley is such a great artist !
Still listening in 2021
Master of strings!
Been thinking of you these past few days,and magically, you and G.E. Smith appeared! Then, to hear you play out and sing Zevon's tune, made my day. Ain't it the truth,Dave. We gotta carry on, regardless. Blessings to you,wherever you roam. Play on ,brother!
Dave is brilliant!... Dylan has covered Zevon too, more than just one song also
Nice marmot. I saw him do this song live and it's still just as touching.
LINDLEY THE LEGEND.
New to me, and what a happy day it is!
can't listen enough
+ math. Thanks so much for the song and then again for its history.
Mr. Dave does it all... been a fan since Kaleidoscope first started. Wish he'd bring his banjo on tour just for one song a night.
True ---- I've never seen him play a banjo live, just the Oud, Saz, Tambour and Bouzouki, and of course his Weissenborn lap steels....
Great stuff.
I've never seen him at a festival (where somebody is always talking no matter who is playing). In all the clubs in which I've seen him the audience has been very respectful (as i shis due!). Cheers. :)
I've got a long list of folks I'm forwarding this to.
Love how he works in some of "Desperadoes Under the Eaves".
Where?
Tak for videoen. Er netop hjemkommet fra en fuldstændig magisk koncert med DL i Svendborg :-D
LOve the quote from "Desperaoes Under The Eaves".
RIP David.
It does not get better.
Whatever the instrument ,....his stage sound is sooooooo cool ...FAT & awesome ,like there s no tomorrow !
how good does it get? lindley and wally ingram playing percussion at continental prahran melbourne circa '88 aprox. $26 one of the best things i have seen. rack of weissenborns, turkish czas? unbelievable talent; should have guessed listening to 'running on empty' years ago, but my musical knowledge and appreciation would not have permitted.
WOW! That is all.
at a golf course once, saw a bumper sticker on a guy's car: "El Rayo-X". What's that about?, I thought. Now I know: Lindley the Great
I've seen Lindley 10 times in the last 2 years in the US. NOBODY was talking through his set. Coulda heard a pin drop. Where did you see him where people were talking?
