Thank you, Mr. Heartfelt Music. What a guy. Sweet sorrow.
Mr. Lindley was in a class all his own. An absolute master in every way. Mr. Groove!
God Bless David Lindley.. so much music, what a treasure. Thanks for sharing.
David Lindley belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
What an absolute treasure.
Great story! Thanks for sharing. Mr David always a great sense of humor and inspiration of instruments and talent galore. Such beautiful backup for Jackson Browne and many more. So glad I got to see him at Belly up and with Jackson. He's in heaven where his and all other's make the best backup music for the love of life ever lasting. Peace and love to everyone❤
Brings tears to my eyes and warmth to my heart... David Lindley is a grizzled wizard of stringed instruments!
So amazing. I saw him solo and twice with Jackson Browne. The first time Jackson Browne had just released his first album and just starting to get well known. I was in the balcony in the first row right above the stage and Mr. Lindley was right below me. He had a park bench painted red white and blue with his instruments lined up. A Telecaster, Banjo, acoustic tuned open and a violin. His laptop was on a stand in front of him. He played them all throughout the show. Jackson Browne is one of my favorite artists. He was awesome. I remember Jim Keltner was playing drums. I also saw the unforgettable Running on Empty tour.
Wow!! 😻 Thanx Douglas!
Being a uke player it's wonderful watching David playing baritone & a magnificent resonator uke.
How I wish I could have seen him performing live. Seemed like a lovely fella
David, One of the most Magical-Sonic-Earthlings, his Vibe is traveling through the Universe.......putt'n a Grin on those Aliens! Have-Mercy! RIP!
As similar as i find them similar in many ways; he did things Steve Howe never did and vice-versa. I met him once and he was very gracious. I miss him already. Great guy, fantastic musician. RIP. Mr. Dave.
Amazing man...I met him several times.
He is a very nice man.
We used to listen to him and others practice at a place called The Alley..near l.a.
Anyway he was taken from us to soon.....I miss El ray-X too.
If you search Jackson Browne/ David Lindley folk festival ...It will come up....Its very good show.
That was just too good for words.
The last song had me literally crying with laughter. Such a great man and musician. Loved the bit of seven ate sweet on the ukulele too. I’ve been kicked out of more than one party for trying to play that tune over the years, but some people just have no taste.
It proves again, it's not the instrument but the people who plays on it that can make anything possible
David dresses so cool. I love his shirts.....so cool david. Love u.
I seen him with Jackson Brown back in the 80s. The best concert I been to. They just wouldn’t get off the stage.
My favorite ❤
That was AWESOME!!!
Meraviglioso.
MAGIC !
I saw part of this performance uploaded elsewhere on RUclips years ago, and ever since then, "so nasty it made me want to go drink the dishwater" has become a staple of my lexicon when I talk about nasty and filthy guitar/ukulele/mandolin/stringed instrument tone. Probably zero people know what I'm referencing, but it's such a great saying. Thanks for sharing this!!
I only got to see and hear him once just before COVID hit. He was playing at a place in Spokane, WA called The Flour Mill - just up the hill from Clinkerdagger's Restaurant. It's an old granary - solid stone walls and floor - maybe the worst acoustic environment you could envision. We sat right next to his sound guy and we chatted with him all the way through. Analog mixing board - they tried a couple digital ones and Dave didn't like the sound they produced: tinny, no warmth. Just travels with his instruments, the sound guy and his board.
The sound guy never pushed the sound levels to something obnoxious - full in the room... but not strong enough to involve the stone surfaces except for some very faint reverb quality they provided. There was maybe only 200-250 people there and it was very intimate.
At the end we kind of hung around to see if we could talk to Mr. Lindley for a bit. There was a merch table off to the side of the 'stage area, and we went over there and were talking to the sound guy again. David walks over carrying one of his two Weissenborns, listens for a few seconds and introduces himself and reached out to shake our hands. We proceeded to talk to him and his sound partner on the road for the next 45 minutes. There was the 3 of us, Dave and his sound guy, and a couple people folding up chairs in the room. When we asked a couple pointed questions on his instruments, he asked if we'd like to hold it. So the three of us got to hold and check out a very unusual instrument that evidently is quite valuable to Mr. Lindley due to the difficulty of finding one that contained the proper amount of 'funk' in the sound. Then he went over and got the other one and let us pass that one around.
He was extremely witty and wiseass, made us laugh pretty hard several times - he could not have been more gracious.
When it comes to 'drinking the dishwater' I think that both he and his friend, Ry Cooder, look for that sound character in all their instruments.
That night we heard him, he put out that gutbucket Blues tone that just grabs you and doesn't let go. I think you know exactly what I'm talking about.
@@Joe_J-MT_Boy I know exactly what you mean with that gutbucket sound. That's so great that you got to chat with Lindley for a while. I've seen Ry Cooder as well (have Paris Texas soundtrack signed by him and Lindley) and they both brought unforgettable performances. I'm glad I saw Lindley when I did, as he never played out my way again. When I briefly met Lindley, he was carrying his oud and he talked about how a lemur bit his finger on his second day in Madagascar with Henry Kaiser during sessions for the World Out Of Time Vol 2 album. Very dryly funny guy.
@@violadrone4285 - for some serious 'gutbucket sound' I hope you have the soundtrack to the movie Crossroads where Ry just shines on every cut. Recently I picked up the 2 CD set of The Family Tour 95 - Live At The Vienna Opera House where Joachim Cooder channels Hani Nassar and Lindley's daughter Rosanne plays guitar. Killer sound quality on both of these catalog items. You can almost hear the catfish grease...
@@Joe_J-MT_Boy My dad's massive CD collection has Crossroads in it, so I've listened to it - I should probably rip a copy to become more familiar with it.
@@Joe_J-MT_Boy I'm so glad you had that experience and grateful you shared that. I had a brief interaction with David and he was actually very much as you say. Funny but with a sharp wit about himself! Quietly Humble if that makes sense. I only had a limited time with him but the almost smaller so to speak physical stature was non existent because David was such a kind man with what seemed to be a very big and affectionate personality. David sounds so very good, yet he almost seems unaware of his Musical Excellence. That's how I think of David.
What a Beautiful Soul. 🙏💖🙏💖🎶🪶
Прекрасно, очень хорошо
I think the instrumental is titled "7/8 Suite", from his days with the Kaleidoscope. I've heard him play this elsewhere on RUclips (probably on Saz or Bouzouki).
I remember some gave Dave an ukulele: " and I aint givin it back either..."
Does anyone know what the deal with the ukulele is on mercury blues?
Doug, I heard about the T-shirt benefit-sale too late to buy one and contribute. Is there any other way to help him out?
Not at the moment but keep in touch. If you’re on Facebook join the fan group, I make announcements there.
@@douglasreynolds8842 , I detest Facebook! Can't get my wife to quit using it, however, so maybe I'll have her follow and monitor your efforts to help David. I should also ask, how is Wally Ingram doing? Its my understanding that he was fighting cancer at one point. I got to meet both Dave and Wally at a gig some years ago; Wally was dating an acquaintance of mine who arranged an introduction. I had a couple of teenagers with me, and Dave and Wally were great with the boys, giving them guitar picks and a drumsticks and brushes, and autographing their T-shirts. They're kind men, and I wish them both the best.
@@douglasreynolds8842 , I am so sorry to hear the news of Dave's passing. I got to meet him at a gig with Wally Ingram, where I had several teenagers with me. David and Wally gave the kids guitar picks and drumsticks and autographed their shirts and talked to them at length, treating them like adults. I feel blessed and privileged to have seen ElRayo-X play 4 times, and to have seen David play with Ry Cooder several times, as well as a bunch of shows with Hani or Wally. My condolences to his family, and to you, and to everyone who knew him. His music rewired not just my brain but my heart as well, and I could count the number of musicians who had that effect on me on just one hand.

@@goodun2974 Wally is good! I talked to him Friday. He is touring now.
