The 4 thumbs downs must be from Black Sabbath fans, that's all I can figure. Sweet music, timeless Americana. Thanks Chris, Herb, and John for years of great music!
Black Sabbath fan here and I LOVE This stuff, in fact went out to see Chris and Roger last night along with Marty and his band. Good music is good music, don't be hating on us Black Sabbath fans, different road but also great.
Another Black Sabbath fan here . Them , and The Byrds, Ice T , Syd Barrett , New York Dolls , GG Allin, Germs , Grateful Dead , Moody Blues , Velvet Underground , Public Enemy , Flying Burrito Brothers , Jim Reeves , Pink Floyd , Judas Priest , Marty Stuart, Jefferson Airplane, The Stooges, MC5 , Miles Davis...
The Desert Rose was a great group. "Time Between" was one of Hillman's 1st tunes to be recorded by The Byrds on their 4th LP, "Younger Than Yesterday." I can listen to Chris Hillman sing all day.👍😁
@@BCTGuitarPlayer : He was a Bluegrass mandolin player before joining The Byrds. I have read that many of the musicans in Manassas were recruited by Hillman.
You know I don't think desert Rose band realizes what they did and the impact that they had on average people out there in the world trying to make it , this music is so awesome it speaks to every aspect of an average person's life and I just love this music I play it every day of my life and it blasts all through my home everyday.
Founding member of and steady hand on the tiller for The Byrds, Manassas, Flying Burrito Brothers, Souther-Hillman-Furay Band, Desert Rose Band. Extraordinary musician. Reliable band mate. Good guy.
Saw The Flying Burrito Brothers with Gram Parsons at Portland Civic Stadium around 1971 after their 2nd Album was out. The sweetest song of their set was Chris singing Cody, Cody.
I worked on the first album cover art with Jay Dusard (Photographer) in Prescott AZ and saw an early show at Matt’s Salon and knew this was one of the hottest bands ever with the then debuted John Jorgensen on guitar, Chris on lead vocal with legendary Herb Peterson on Banjo and harmony, and Jay Dee Maness on Steele. Have enjoyed the occasional reunions, and all of John’s wonderful work to this day.
Back in the day when Prescott was a town not a city. Bird Cage Matts Palace. Guy, J S who owned the Bird Cage was/is wired and weird. Just an old man now paying his dues I hear
@@lastnamefirst4035 … I was in Prescott a few times and enjoyed it then. As I understand, now it’s nothing like it once was. Some call this progress, others don’t.
The Desert Rose Band is an American country rock band from California, founded by Chris Hillman (formerly of the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers) along with Herb Pedersen and John Jorgenson in 1985. Rounding out the original lineup were Bill Bryson on bass guitar, Jay Dee Maness on pedal steel guitar, and Steve Duncan on drums. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the band charted several hit singles on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts until disbanding in February 1994
Met Waylon Jennings brother Bo James in Lubbock Tx at the MFA both of us were in line to unload. He was pulling his trailer with a black Mack that was still lettered Waylon Trucking With Miss Jessie's Dream on the bunk. He favored him quite a bit. We struck up a conversation and he invited me out to a club that night since I was going to spent the weekend. Long story short at the club that night was The desert Rose Band, great night. Got to know Waylons boy Terry, reconnected on Facebook with Terry several years ago, he wrote a book about Waylon"My Outlaw Dad" Sadly Terry passed away a couple days ago, but he was able to share a lot of his dad with us before did. R.I.P. Terry Jennings I hope he's huggin you and callin ya Hoss again.
I just like all their music and love the youngest versions of them. It is so hard to imagine the guys. getting older.I feel so sad for them. I hope they will be around for a long long time!!!
I had an appointment in Hibbing, Mn a few years ago where Bob Dylan grew up. I couldn't find his house. He said once that he was born in the wrong town to the wrong family. Never liked him much after that.
With the crap Chris had to put up with Gram he's earned the right to sing the songs they created!! Chris just put out his book and I think I read he said Gram was a good person but not a good friend. Shame we lost Gram at such a young age.
@@Lee.Higginbotham Gram said in an interview that he'd asked Hillman to do more of the lead vocals, but Chris said no. Possibly still too shy. With the Byrds Chris looked like he'd like to disappear. Maybe performing with Gram helped him get more comfortable on stage. He's certainly a great performer now. As for Gram, it's not easy working with someone who has mental health issues, which I'm sure he had. Hope that Chris can forgive Gram for the disappointments he caused.
.....sadly, yet another case of tone-deaf director....in this instance, not knowing difference between a pedal steel solo and a mandolin in You and Me......who hires these guys??
John Jorgenson is probably the best thing that happened to Hillman. John is one of the best musicians out there. Hillman is arrogant and doesn't deserve some of the new elite young musicians out there.
What do you mean by arrogant? That he’s confident? Focused? Have you seen him rude or belittling or sarcastic? “Arrogant” is an empty charge unless you describe some behavior. Otherwise, don’t throw this in.
Herb Pederson’s harmony is always unmistakable 👍
No one is better than Herb.
Chris Hillman is a “blessing”. He’s an original, authentic musician. We’ve been blessed to have him in our lives.
One of my fav artists of all time. Everything he has ever done musically has been superb. I true pioneer in country rock.
solo lp ripple mandolin is awesome
Never get tired of this song!
Love Chris Hillman's book! He's got to have one of the most impressive resumes in all of country music
Thank God he wrote that book, it's everything.

Was Hillman doing this stuff before he joined with Stephen Stills' Manassas?
@@BCTGuitarPlayer : He was a Bluegrass mandolin player before joining The Byrds. I have read that many of the musicans in Manassas were recruited by Hillman.
@@josephlemko3027 At that point, Hillman was a force of nature, Stills was a musical genius!!!
No twerking. No auto tune. No BS. Just first rate musicians doing what first rate musicians do. Does it get any better?

Sin City grabbed me in 1969, and has had me until now...A great ride...Love Chris and Herb, Jorgensen is amazing; JD is a treasure!!!
Chris has been paramount in my own music. I heard “Sin City” in 1969…Gram and he hit it out of the park for me. That was 55 years ago.
Chris Hillman has a legendary background as a founding member of the Byrds and Burrito Brothers. Really captures the essence of both here.
...and the Scottsville Squirrel Barkers. Caught them at the Julian BG Fest and at Lou Curtis' Folk Festival. Serious bluegrass.
Let's not forget Manassas.
That first Desert Rose Band album was absolutely amazing- it still knocks me out after 30 odd years.
Has it been that long?
Chris Hillman...what a career.
Fantastic band . They put out some great music between ‘86 and ‘90 or so . Soundtrack of my life for those years

John Jorgensen tearing up any instrument he touches, including scorching fast mando cross picking here. The triplets at 1:56 are nuts.
And the finger-picked harmonics in one of his guitar leads
Chris Hillman I feel like he carries the torch.There is some wisdom behind his eyes.

This is real country music.
I think Gram Parsons called it Cosmic American Music.

JD Maness on an Emmons pedal steel.
3.32 sees John Jorgensen dropping in another one of his killer solos.
the Gold Standard! Their live performances presented Grateful Dead- like sound dynamics...when they had youthful juice and amped it up.
❤🎉
Amazing musicians! And phenomenal singers!
Phenomenal is the word I would have chosen! Truly amazing from Buffalo Springfield to Byrds to DRB (and a few in between)
What a band. Greetings from Greece!
Wonderful Musicians
Hit dislike by mistake. Love this band and this performance!!
Western & Country & Western music.
How am I just now discovering these guys? That’s a dam good band!
Almost a Don Rich silver sparkle Telecaster on lead guitar. And Clarence White’s B bender guitar sound!
Chris Hillman f*****g legend! Lolxxx
I just like all their music and love the youngest versions of them. It is so hard to imagine the guys. getting older.I feel so sad for them. I hope they will be around for a long long time!!!
All top shelf musicians
Che grande nostalgia risentire Sin City ...bellissima ancora adesso nonostante gli anni ...e ...che grande nostalgia. Ciao Gram !!!!
Love this band.
Chris Hillman weighs in on the inevitable decision. "pack up your money pick up your tent" is his choice.
Great songs, great musician.
Amazing classics
They are the best ❤
Desert Rose Band Lives...
Reading Chris’ book. Amazing musician.
Tim got to see him and DRB and the Okanes open for Emmy Lou Harris in 1987, great show
Chris Hillman my boy voice personata listen do RIPPLE
I had an appointment in Hibbing, Mn a few years ago where Bob Dylan grew up. I couldn't find his house.
He said once that he was born in the wrong town to the wrong family. Never liked him much after that.
Yeahhh !!! my Idols
Love it but now I have to go listen to Gram singing " Sin City". Nobody sings it like him.
I am partial to the version JD Crowe and the New South put out, but we are fortunate to have the song and all versions.
With the crap Chris had to put up with Gram he's earned the right to sing the songs they created!! Chris just put out his book and I think I read he said Gram was a good person but not a good friend. Shame we lost Gram at such a young age.

@@margaretross9150Chris did a great job with the lead vocal covering "I am a Pilgrim" on The Byrds Sweethearts of the Rodeo album.
Super stuff
Brillando con luz propia!!!!!
This band has a great "sound"
cue thunderous applause, please.
This is what the Byrds and the Burrtto Brothers could have been.
Mandolin 🔥
The Lord's burnin rage.... It's a reality!
The lyric is "the Lord's burnin' RAIN...not rage.....
“You ain’t goin nowhere “ is screaming for banjo
I would have had no problem if Hillman had hung Burrito Bros. name on this killer band. None whatsoever!
He couldn't. At the time he didn't own the rights to the name - John "I'm a big country star - just ask me!" - Beland did.;-)
Any music
science fiction country...
...once again, deaf sound guy problems!......levels great on mandolin and steel but completely lost John's tele!......
Was that Richie Furay on steel?
JD Maness 🙂
Herb Pederson sings while barely opening his mouth. Odd. Great tenor voice.
I noticed that too. He makes it look effortless, but what comes out is amazing.
"Pack yourself"???? Oops...It's "strap yourself".
.....sadly, yet another case of tone-deaf director....in this instance, not knowing difference between a pedal steel solo and a mandolin in You and Me......who hires these guys??
You mean "Time Between". BBC Noobs. Till today there horrible in direction music performances!
I've always wondered how they got the job. It makes no sense.
Who's on steel?
+William V Miller jaydeemaness.com/

The best !
John Jorgenson is probably the best thing that happened to Hillman. John is one of the best musicians out there. Hillman is arrogant and doesn't deserve some of the new elite young musicians out there.
Yes JJ is one of the best all round musicians for sure. Re your comment on Chris.. any experiences ?
First negative have ever seen about CH.
You are wrong about Chris . Where do you get off?
