What is wrong with the 15 folks who gave this a “thumbs down”? This is real mountain music.
Charlie....simply the best
This is one of the greatest things ever.
still come back to this all day long charlie. im pretty sure he developed some serious arthritis in his hand from gigging so much but still plays this classic far better than anyone ive seen. true contemporary folk master.
Hopefully young people will find Charlie and discover his music.
Got my teenage boy into him, via the Gaslight Anthem, into Springsteen, into Nebraska, into Charlie. A long road but made it in the end.
Charlie rocks, so glad I had the chance to hear and meet him in the Netherlands a few years ago.
One of the best to do it brother…. Thank you so much Charlie for sharing your passions with us. Means the world to this man! 🙏🏻✌🏻💤
This guy is wicked, bad, the bomb, lit, righteously excellent, what have you.
Our favorite "local" (Minnesota) blues man!
Todd Ojala That’s really not Blues, that’s Hill Billy music. I don’t mean that in any perjorative sense, just different classifications of music. The Blues have their roots in African American music from the Mississippi Delta around the turn of the 20th century. Mountain, or Hill Billy music has its roots in the Irish and Scotish settlers who settled in the deep reaches of the Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains in the early to mid 19th Century. Some of these communities were so isolated that you could still hear the celtic brogue in their speech before the Second World War. One of the best things FD Roosevelt did was use musicians in the WPA to go way back up in the Mountains and collect and record the old folk songs from those communities. What a tragedy it would be if this music had been lost to time!
My five year old son just came to me. ' Are you watching Big Foot?' No son, that's Charlie Parr. Sorry Charlie! (Ps. Love all you've done for Americana music. Cheers)
So much soul poured into this, love you Charlie. Your music makes hard times a little easier.
Words fail me, just beautiful.
If only "Moonshiner" would appear on the next album!
Solid. Great justice to an iconic folk standard.
this is magical
great great great version!!
Yeah, way different than early Dylan, but just as honest.
He should pay his rent with such unbelievable talent, greatings from the Netherlands
Beautiful song. It's also the first time I've seen Charlie use more than his thumb and first finger to play in a live performance.
He’s suffered recently from focal dystonia which means he’s had to adapt to playing with only thumb and first finger. Maybe this performance is from before he had the problem.
Amazing one of my favourite songs to play on guitar... awesome charlie... thumbs up from Ireland! Happy Paddys day all
praise be Charlie, Love ur music man keep up the fantabulous works man : ) truly champion music
no words. hands down.
Simply awesome man. One of my favourite versions of one of my favourite songs. Much love man
Great cover! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
one of the better of our time, nice to have that when the world is about to burn
And here we are years later and 4 years ago seems like "the good old days"
Not "my music" - still, I loved it. Very much so even! COMPLIMENT, Charlie! Great playin', great singin', great writin' !
Damn, how I admire, envy, and am in awe of someone who can play guitar like this. Please don't hate me for saying this, but I really like Cat Power's version of this song more. Not that she plays guitar, but I have to say the emotional feeling she puts into it is something else. Thumbs up to Charlie, never would have come across this if Spotify hadn't turned me onto him by the song "Cheap Wine".
Love the sound of a Guild 12 string! Great cover!
Salute to you Charlie Parr.
There's something about this. Can't explain it.
Now I now what it's supposed to sound like.....copied this out of a book in a library cuz the lyrics seemed cool....when my my son was 3 he was flipping through all these copies and said "Dad play this" .....I said I couldn't cuz I didn't know how it goes and I can't read notes, but he kept on begging and was almost in tears. So I did like Kant and just imagined how the moonshiner in those hills may have sung this....might post that sometime.
Exactly......I live in Tennessee. I promise you.....we do it how we feel it. Not like how people tell us how it sounds.
sounds interesting, please upload someday :)
Just awesome!
Love some Charlie!
man I've been trying to learn this. this is a great song
wow i love this artist
Wow that's some amazing picking
Pure Class !
man, that's a fine piece of music craftsmanship - this man looks that unimpressive, but he's a titan of the blues
I am very impressed also
Listen also to the version by Lost Dog Street Band. (And by Redbird!)
My favorite version
love it thanks so much for this
That guitar is kind of like Charlie... a little road-worn, lot's of character, and full of beauty which can't be contained.
Pops up on the feed again and again so keep hitting play again and again. Excellent cover better than the original by miles (sorry Bob). Anyone worked out a tab for this version?
This is haunting 🥲
I wish I could fingerpick that well on a 6 string! Always wanted a guild and by God I'm getting one
Awesome cover
Nice!
I'm the 13,666th view \m/ Man, Charlie has got so much soul in his music it's riveting! His original 'Hog Kill Blues' is another one of my favorites. Keep up the excellent work brother!
Pickin with the best of em.
That's fkn solid
Very nice sir!
Cuts right through me.
Wow! This is really good :)
I don't think I've seen anyone good fingerplay a 12-string before. Obviously, I have much to learn.
artwork
extraordinary
The BEST
What does he say on the last verse, something like "Come all you moonshiners and stand on the hill' or something? Does anyone know the full verse by any chance?? thanks in advance!
John Mercer stand all in a row, I think.
I'm assuming the 16 dislikes were some highly deranged individuals
People who didn't like it. Who cares? Why bother insulting them? You can't like what you like without the backing of 16 strangers?
is this an original or a cover? either way i lover this song!!
It's an old anonymous folk standard.
*****
Thanks!
It's actually interesting because it's most closely the bob dylan arrangement that he's playing, but uses lyrics usually attributed to much earlier versions!
Very Americana and very well done.
This rulez
God bless all the pretty women . . . see you soon, Charlie - Dec 8th at City Winery Philly!
Is this the same one as the song by Dylon? sounds the same but he changed up the lyrics a bunch ...
Zev Posner it's an old traditional song. From the Appalachian mountains i believe. Lyrics of traditional songs were changed around and often included lyrics from other songs also.
12 strings, plays with two fingers, Charlie parr is genius
Whoa...
This guy was singing this way before the pack damn
I see a lot of people playing this song, who wrote it originally?
Zach Butler no one knows. it's a mystery! 😊
$5/gallon. I'm in! 😂
Dave Van Ronk!
Wow
The video that originally made me want to get a 12 string
Iv only herd Benjamin Todd's version now I know
what do those kids say---------sweet
All you downvoters can meet me at the flagpole at noon.
Does anyone know what tuning he’s using? String by string. Tell me like I’m an 8 year old. I can figure the rest out.
love to hear the bob dylan version
This backdrop is undeserving
What year is that guitar???
Sean Brummel Hard to say. I'd guess anywhere from 1967 to 1986, most likely late seventies. Only the serial number knows.
I swear that there are some arschlochs who live on the Death Star as it travels through the Black Holes in the Dark Web that just cruise YT to rage with thumbs down on anything that others like. I could just spit!
Who cares? Doesn't stop me liking what I like.
No clue on him.?. But hear some southern Missouri boy in him. I'm probably way off. Enjoyed it anyway.
Duluth MN
This guy plays guittar so good go slow ever
Fran by eu Piracicaba S.P by J. dos Santos
anyone know the tuning?
I'm pretty sure it's standard, then tuned down one step. It's the way a lot of people tune their 12 strings because it relieves some neck tension and you can get standard tuning by putting a capo on the second fret. I hope this helps! Not sure how it would sound on a six string because you wouldn't have the higher paired strings to brings the sound up a bit.
Who's playin' the other guitar?
Theres only one guitar. Its a 12 string
Nathan Deen
My feeble attempt at being facetious.
It was really a complement to his playing......and a re-quote of "I think" an early recording executive who said it upon listening to one of the first demo's of the great Robert Johnson.
rubbersole79 it was Keith Richards.
Mountain bluegrass v_v :-)
Y is lol Wayne famous and ol Charlie isnt
Needs to be more clear in vocals, like Bob!!!
no one appreciate this music anymore
