My lord. He is asked to do a Grateful Dead cover, ponders which one, the guy requests Birdsong, he goes on to play eight minutes of the most incredible guitar work I’ve heard. Now we all know Keller knows every Grateful Dead song there is, but this was incredible.
That is what I call knowing a song inside and out.
I love it, the guy says "Birdsong" and you can see Keller pull it up in his dome. Like a word that activates this amazingness.
Never in my life have I introduced someone to Keller’s music and received a negative reaction. Pure Genius.
I have never seen a human being so amazingly awesome on there own as keller. He could be looping bass, beatboxing or whistling. Then there is just jamming the shit out of an acoustic guitar. Keller is THE effin Man
Some dead heads will try to burn me at the stake but this is my favorite birdsong. I was there for "doin that rag" awesome in Houlton, thank you sir.
what a beast! wish we couldve gotten a pizza tapes style session with keller and jerry.
Everytime I hear Keller's version of another of my favorite bands songs it is not only better but its like hearing them the first time again with more feeling and emotion. I love these songs and you can hear how much he loves them too. Such an amazing gift he gets to share with the world.
Never been a fan of covers but Keller can do no wrong. 🎶💜
i watch this once a week
I never heard of this guy before but Oh My Lord can he ever play. Nice voice too. HES GOOD.
Unbelievable... not only how fast he goes into it but the improvisation after he loses his pick @
This song both breaks and makes my heart whole... I come back year after year to hear this particular cover. One of my all time favorites.
Did anyone else notice how fast he went to the song ??? About a millisecond after the words bird song hit his ears!

I met this guy at a park. I had my ovation steal string at which i was remedial. He rides up on a bike starts talking to us. He was just like you might imagine. He Asked if he check out my guitar. Started playing any song i could think of beautifully telling me to sing.
Watching this again and still can’t comprehend how versatile and smooth this performance is. Geeze!
That's one of the best acoustic guitar sounds I've ever heard...love Martins! Amazing cover by Keller!
birdsong. Keller. first saw you with Matthew szechenyi back at lambda chi alpha in spring of 87. wow what a long strange trip
I've listened to hard rock for so long that I've almost forgotten how beautiful an acoustic guitar can be
