I like drums, electric guitar and keyboards as much as a lot of other people do but it's great to hear such a "slimmed down" presentation as this (and, of course, this singer seems "in her element" - as if to say: "In what other way would one approach singing this number ?" ) !!!!
Tracy does the best of the many versions I've heard of Gypsy Rover - the guitar styling and chords and key change; and her lively, perky vocals. Very fine! AD Ruark
Karl - I loved the Highwaymen and became friends with David Fisher who started the group. In fact, for a short while back then, David and I formed a duo and played the coffee house circuit in New York. He and I and another guy did a short stint as a group called The Mosquitoes promoting Union Carbide's 6-12 insect repellent. Too much information? Thanks for listening!
@@tracynewman3256 Tracy, you made my day -and shed some light on a childhood memory. That's a hilarious story about The Mosquitoes -yes, as I well-know, we all have to eat :-) Thank you and here's wishing you the very best.
Grew up listening to my parents' Kingston Trio albums, their version of Gypsy Rover is a permanent fixture in my head. I love your version too! You're a lovely lady.
Wow, my guitar teach taught me this when I was 14…in the early 90s. But I’ve never heard the song until now. Instill have the sheet music. Wild, it’s just how he taught me.
This person was around in 1965, enjoying her life, doing something she loved, and she's still around now, doing the same thing - I was born in 1982, I've been miserable for the last 40 years, and I plan to end it all pretty soon - life really sucks ass
Wow this is brilliant! So glad this is available on YT so the modern generation can see what they’ve been missing with their modern mass-produced drivel.
This song was written by Leo Maguire my music teacher in Dublin Ireland. I have been living in Australia for 38 years and this song brings back happy memories every time.
@@tracynewman3256 it,s an irish rework of an old scottish song the gypsy laddie/twa gypsies. similar theme. look up jean richie singing it on you tube. as does the american song black jack davy
@@ArkRed1 Sorry I just noticed this question. You might not be interested any more, but I'll answer anyway. I got it through McCabe's Guitar Shop in Santa Monica CA. I bought it from a teenage boy who had it in his garage in two pieces (neck and body). It was his grandfather's. Now that I think back, I'm wondering if he had permission. I don't know! I was pretty much a kid, too.
@@tracynewman3256 I understand you still have it. You've got a real treasure there. I guess McCabe's repaired it. Hope you didn't have to give an arm and a leg for it. Those small Martin's are worth their weight in gold to collectors nowadays. Thanks for the reply.
@@ArkRed1 I paid $150! I didn't really know what a steal it was at the time. I was offered $600 for it when it was repaired, but I kept it. I love it. I don't play it much these days though because the wood has gotten so thin over the years. It's kind of delicate. Also, it's only worth about $6000 now because someone put a pick-guard on it long, long ago, and the appraiser said that kind of ruins it for collectors. Thanks for your interest!
In b/w times colurs in such setups were not chosen as how they looked in reality but how they met the greyscale / contrast scale of the recording equipment. So there you could find a lot of crazy combinations - even in face makeup!
@@tracynewman3256 I used to watch your shows.Think "Freight Train" was a staple,right? Didn't you do somebody's later show which featured the steel guitar? Met you in Los Angeles 1982.
"The wood has to vibrate and it won't be able to vibrate with all that shiny stuff on it" 0:44. While she says this her guitar catches the light and shines.
Lol! You're so right! By the way, the guitar (which I still have) is a New York Martin from 1898, and would be very valuable today if not for the shiny finish on it. I bought it that way in the late 1950s.
She would of been great playing in the sound of music playing the nun that the actress Julie Andrews played. I bet she would of probably been better at it than her!
@@davidjacobs8558 Sorry this took so long! I have a brother named Paul, but he's not the one you're thinking of. My sister, however is Laraine from the first cast of SNL.
This is poor quality of folk song compared to Susan Kerner of 99 balloon fame. Susan goes on to sing many albums of 'Kinderlieder' songs. Tracy attempts to reappear in the mid 2000s.

She's like a crystal clear I don't how to say, but i really love her voice and confidence. ❤️😘
The song is just beautiful, the talent is outstanding, and the little lady captured my heart immediately!

Thank Christ I did not speak my mind!!

I feel young again, thank you Ms Newman✨

I never heard of her until today. What an amazingly lovely girl n so amazingly talented, too!
wish she had an album of these songs

Obviously you’ve never heard Tommy Makim or Liam Clancy sing Gypsy Rover…☘️🎼
Lovely song, you are so darn fun to watch, thank you Tracy.
I discover something new everyday. I'm the newest Tracy Newman fan. Great!
Hah. It's almost 2021. I hope I get 2nd place soon.
i can listen to you sing all day...very nice.
Tracy! I love these old videos. You’re such a talented lady!! Music and a television writer too! Wow! ❤️
Cute and charming. I like her singing style too. I like the story of the song. 🙂
Simply great... Miss old times really much
A wonderful performance. I really enjoyed. I used to listen over and over to my 45 of the Highwaymen doing that song. So many years ago.

This is exactly what I would've become addicted to back in the sixties!
Absolutely delightful, both playing and singing, I am an instant fan retroactively to my College days. Oh to have a time machine !!
This lady is one of the best musicians of all time.
Your voice is amazing
Lovely! I remember hearing the Irish Rovers doing a cover of this song around 1969.
Delightful song always loved this one. Thank you for sharing it Tracy C
Thank you so much for putting this up, these are incredible vids, just precious!!
Happy Sunday Ms. Tracy Newman! Excellent post. Good music like this ages well.
Neskutečně krásná píseň. Úžasný hlas a nádherné provedení.
it's a bit more punk rock this one and I love it.
Grew up listening to my parents' Kingston Trio albums, their version of Gypsy Rover is a permanent fixture in my head.
I love your version too! You're a lovely lady.
wish I would have found you sooner Ms. Newman
爽やかな歌唱で素晴らしいです。
Absolutely amazing....
Very helpful advice. Who'd have thought such a girl would also be a world class card shuffler?
Beautiful in every way
Beautiful then, beautiful now!!
Fabulous is all I can say, greetings from Yorkshire England lol
Fine version of one of my favorite songs during the "folk scare" of the sixties. Thank you for sharing.
We need a new "folk scare."
Який чистий голос! Дуже сподобалось!
Can’t read it
Very good and very nice sister

Lovely a beautiful lady a good irishsong i

Beautiful girl.
Now, I'm sure of it lol. Off I go to learn everything about this overlooked (by me) wonder 😊
It's a Tracy Newman sort of say, just a-rollin' all her vids.
Cute as a fucking button!
Nice looking Martin guitar. If it's not a Martin it has a very nice tone.
It's a New York Martin from 1898. You have a good eye! I still have the guitar.
IN excellent condition. Where did you find it, Mandolin Brothers?

Can I ask what colour was your outfit it's a shame it's in black and white,very talented
As I recall, it was purple velour! Yikes!
@@tracynewman3256 purple? ? I wouldv have thought light brown or pale green with the background ( let's keep it black an white eh,) LOL
@@merlinthemagician3388 much nicer.
