- "Desolation Row", performed by Gabrielle Louise (www.gabriellelouise.com) with Michael Bellar, in concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Takoma Park, Takoma Park, MD, USA on June 16, 2012.
Gabrielle Louise is a nationally touring troubadour noted for her poignant lyrics (a two-time John Lennon Songwriting Contest finalist, winner of the Jack Maher Songwriting Award) and lush voice. Gabrielle Louise's music is anchored deeply in folk, but undeniably drawn to rich harmonies and melodic adventurism. Her sound has the earthy feel of early Joni Mitchell while also veering into the spirited delivery of fellow genre-hopping artist Martin Sexton. Unafraid to take a random musical escapade in the name of inspiration, Gabrielle is at one moment folkie and ethereal, the next moment a smoky jazz chanteuse. Recently, she's fallen very much in love with Argentine Tango, and is committing time to studying to play and sing tango standards.
Sound: Dave Eisner, Dave Richardson

This is a phenomenal cover of a Dylan classic. This is a song that should be impossible for another singer to make their own but to listen to this woman sing it, she could have wrote it herself. Amazing. Love it
Ashok Thomas Phenomenal?? Really? What are you 15?
Yes you are writh with your words but do not forget what it is for my friend
WOW! THAT......was BEAUTIFUL!
I have seen Dylan perform it a handful of times. I have seen, and heard, the Dead's version many times. I also play, and sing, it. But my oh my that was lovely!
I found myself holding my breath when listening to this for the first time tonight.. A beautiful rendition of an extraordinary song... If I wasn't already married.. to the most wonderful woman in the world..Suzanne Viner.. I would be sending you a proposal tonight Gabrielle...and Michael Beller is the perfect accompanist ...
larry viner Stay married fella. She ain't interested in you anyway. Just what I suspected most of you dudes like this mostly because you all want to get into her pants. It's just not gonna happen unless you are loaded with filthy lucre and even then she can play you hard.
In the sixties, I was 16 , and allready 'an old' boy, The first time I hear this song by Bob, my dear , older sister translated it for me. All the years later, in diference omstandigheden, always i follow this song...Now in 2020, see and hear this beautifull performence I said thank you very much! Big 😊jaap Amsterdam
Absolutely marvellous. I've always loved that song.💓
Outstanding version beautiful voice
Can't watch this without tears falling...so incredibly beautiful
pamela sue jackson exactly...exactly.
pamela sue jackson Tears "flowing"??? Really so when you hear the superior version Bobs original how are your tears babe? No no no it ain't me babe it ain't me you're looking for child.
John Dorfner maybe I expect that from a chickeepoo who normally likes sappy hallmark music like Celine Dion but a dude??? Must be a sissy or something.
you understande and i am a frenche and understanding to
thank you
Lovely! XXX
The best rendition of Desolation Row I have ever heard. Love it! wonderful voice. Thanks
Trong Nguyen Better than Bob Dylan's original? Are you cray cray or what? She's smiling too much for the forlorn lyrics and desolate nature of the song. She's too cutesy looking and sounding for this.
really? yer nuts.
I'd have to agree, and yes, it's definitely better than the particular rendition that I watched Bob Dylan perform. It's the only version I watch/listen to. Thanks Bob Dylan for creating such a soulful/piece.
t piece
Have you heard Chris Smither’s version? It’s a lot better than this one, IMHO. She goes too slow and it makes the song drag on a bit. If she speeded up, she would be able to sing the missing verses.
I love the accompaniment here and it is a lovely version. I do prefer Chris Smither's take but neither beats Bob's original.@@perilouspoozer3749
I am so glad to have just discovered this amazing voice !!! :)
What a beautiful voice!!
What a fantastic cover of this Brilliant Dylan song!! :-)
Norman Hyett Fantastic? Poor Norman who thinks rat burgers from White Castle is real good and slim Jim's don't suck and Red Bull isn't Red Bull shit. Haha clevvver
Beautiful voice added to incredible lyrics. Still no one can delivery it like Dylan.
Best Desolation on the RUclipsr! OK, maybe the Dead version is as good but hey..it's the Dead. But look how Gabrielle can turn this mourning epic poem into a passionate love song. And Michael nudging with his moaning melodica.OK, Tubers, use this as the gateway to hear some of her original songs. The best voice you have never heard...but that will change really soon I suspect. This performance moved me to tears while I tried to keep the console dry! Please share this gemstone. DEE
David Eisner who you kidding??? You want to bang her as well. And your stupid prediction from 5 years ago shows you're way off the mark. Maybe she'll have to be an obedient housewife now. No shame in that. John Lennon was even a househusband.
Very pretty voice and version!
Wow, this is a fantastic rendition of Bob Dylan's masterpiece. Very different take from other covers.
Wow, wow, wow, I really hope 32,777 years from now, some one, is sitting comfortably, enjoying this 1/2 as I am!!!
Thought it was magical.Really love your voice.
Robert England magical would be if 95% of the respondents woke up to reality. This is mediocre at best and I'm just being kind here.
@@JBCo2012 bro stfu damn
wowwwwwwww. I'm speechless
thepokermyth Are you DRUNK 😵 as well?
for god sake i think i'm in love
Lovely rendition of the song, well done!
I love this woman forever
Very beautiful song !
Highly original and beautiful.
Beautiful, but not original.
Beautiful, but too pretty. And not original.
I don't know why every cover version of this song is a ballad...
peerman2006 EXACTLY but truthfully not that beautiful either.
teppolundgren Because generation x and the millennials for the most part don't have a shred of originality in them.
Liked hearing Gabrielle Louise do this Bob Dylan song.
A great cover. Every time I listen to this song it's like I'm in a dream. I love the words. I've even made a video of it as a parody called Isolation Row. Dylan inspires me to write.
Absolutely amazing.
Wow! Fabulous.
i love it ... very nice
What a great version of this song...
pour moi , la plus belle chanson du Zim ; for me , this song is the best song of Zim.........
Nice job on this, it's a hard hard hard one to cover.
for me , the best song of Zim ; and this voice is so nice ........
yves thinnes Nice voice isn't enough for a song which mentions desolation. Too cutesy for a Dylan classic
Credit to Chris Smither needs to be acknowledged here for arrangement, tuning ... Great performance though. Nicely done.
Check out Chris Smither doing this and you will see what I mean.
Brilliant take on an amazing song..Dylan would love this
Graham Petrie No No No he would most definitely not. Hey I love Bob and all but he gets horny too. I think he only gave crow sherryl Mississippi because she was hot at the time now crow is nothing to crow at
DealReal12 haha OK if u say so
This is the Chris Smither version of this tune and it is well done. The credit for the arrangement though must go to Chris Smither. Check him out as well.
That being said, This is truly beautiful. Great job! What a voce !!
Mary Wolston Chris is great and he does Bob proud. This chick is hot and her version ain't terrible but she hardly brings the gravitas the song and lyrics require proving once again that she's just another pretty voice in a sea of them. Too many fishes in the sea.
impresionante
Oh yeah!!!!! Sing only if you know all the lyric by heart. Great 'un mate. Love from Assam, IND.
Beautyful!
A Ambions coulnd you brings everywhere
Poetry comes alive
obožavam je, moja nova bosonoga devojka ...
Just watch this ladies elegant moving both fine hands -- reaching the accords - se well
Que voz tan linda, te escuche cantando a silvio y me enamore de tu voz.
ONE WHOLE MINUTE SHORT
Dylan would be proud...beautiful.
John Dorfner You're an Ass for saying that. He would be embarrassed. He might say it's good if she asked him out of respect (I might lie to her face too) but trust me she will never get near him. And the fact that you uttered such ridiculousness shows me the terrible taste of most Americans
Now beat it and go your own way
Oh ! Dios por fin encuentro a alguien a quién admirar , pensé que ya no existían elementos como ´tú . . . eres magnifica , el acoplamiento con la guitarra , la manera como manejas tu voz es perfecta , parece que un adjetivo ensuciara lo que escucho , no puedo felicitarte siquiera porque opaco tu manifestación . Tú vuelas. . . sólo sigue . . . . - desde Uruguay -
very very very nice interpretation - angelical. Any one knows the name of the organ flute? Thanks
The melodica, also known as the pianica, blow-organ, key harmonica, free-reed clarinet, or melodyhorn, is a free-reed instrument similar to the pump organ and harmonica.
Thank you so much - I'll find out if this would be a new dimension to my series of mouth harps..
@@geebud1880 they cost all of $45.00. I use them with my music therapy clients all the time. Breath control. Finger dexterity. Attending to two things at once. On and on. And the singer? My daughter. (-:
And I LOVE Michael Bellar.
Just this beautiful voice and guitar.
Why the mini-keyboard ?? too bad !
To explain: I produced and engineered the show. The mini keyboard is a melodica. Her partner chose this over the piano to take the place of Bob's mournful harmonica solo in the original. Notice how he kind of pushes the tremolo sound towards her.And, if you watch carefully, he 'bonks' the mic stand at one point. Go to the 'imtfolk' channel and search Gabrielle and check out her Spanish cut. The girl is pure gold and as sweet inside as out. Note: as she finished the piece here, she flips the guitar which says 'Thank you'. It belonged to her recently deceased Dad. Thanks for your interest. DEE
+David Eisner I happen to like the melodica a lot for this song. Oddly enough, I think the leader of Steven Colbert's Tonight Show band, "Stay Human" plays the melodica. Just looked up his name: Jon Batiste. I like the way Gabrielle interprets this song. Will check out more songs by her.
Oy, I have to disagree with you on that! He hits a few sour notes, but I like the overall effect! I also own one of those, so I'm a bit biased, though...
Disagree with me on which point exactly?
Archie Merwin
I meant to reply to David Eisner, sorry!
Lone ago but the row still Maintenant qué
The verses about Dr. Filth and Casanova are cut to allow for the slower tempo and keep the time down. The Irish folk version takes a little getting used to, but it's well-done, IMO. Thanks for posting.
Jessica, You are 100% on point. I was the recording engineer and producer of the show. The venue was giving me the "high sign" to wrap it up as we were going into overtime! Gabby and I go way back so this was in a way " Desolation Row Lite" It was also the first time she had used a Neumann KM105S vocal mic so there was a love affair going on with her and the mic which gives her vocal the room to breathe.
He still ambitiious but for the the good weelhing for the worlds
That sounds like Open G! Do you think she's influenced by the Chris Smither cover?
George Parkins I don't think she would know Chris Smithers music if he bit her on the ass, to kinda quote Frank Zappa who said the American public wouldn't know good music even if they were bit in the ass. Hahahahaha heeeheee
@@JBCo2012 sorry Deal but she gives credit to Chris. Not sure the "if he bit her on the ass" Zappa analogy works but I would love to see that as well! LOL
Does anyone knows what kind of tuning is she using?
that was beautiful.......mo ghra thu.....when are you coming to ireland.......paddyo
we need to improve this world ,and comets like this from you and your leader will never help ,not in the u.s or anywhere else in the world.
great cover of this classic and a beautiful voice, are you ever in the vegas area to perform would love to come see your show
what do you call that harmonica?
It's a melodica. Hohner makes them.Yamaha entered the fray a few years ago.

C'mon, while most will recognize this as a Dylan classic, in this case one should credit Chris Smither for the arrangement.
In g tuning obviously with capo :)
i love her voice i just wish see knew the words
They know what means to be from desolation row...
Really beautiful version of a song that is extremely difficult to cover well. My criticism is that the correct order of the verses is important and gets utterly mangled here.
I managed about four seconds.
Try Viagra.
72secondprize Thank you for saying that Sir. I forced myself to listen to most of the performance but lemme tell you it was the hardest thing I did today. Very tedious except one saving grace she looks hot. But for some reason I doubt she'll stay with her boyfriend if she accidentally makes it in show biz. For me she sounds like she's About a Mover.
teppolundgren Exactly. She needs a real man to SATISFY Her, not the chump she got.
Try this one too: "Desolation Row" (song by Bob Dylan)
Stan Denski Why?
How did you like that Bob
There are Bob Dylan songs that are best left unperformed to avoid ridicule.
Far enought
Isn't this my Chems song??
melodically player should be heard not seen. he's a distraction and too boppy.
Don't care for the little piano you blow into. Besides it looks ridiculous. Harmonica would be better or just you by yourself. One of my favs of Dylan. Nice voice and love the guitar playing.
It's not a shmalzy love ballad for god's sake. Ugggh.
very good better than Robert Zimmerman
Oh, you take that back...right now!!! Or go straight back to Justin Bieber.
Adrien Tsebrjinsky Only an antisemitic ASSWIPE would make such a jejune fatuous inane insane immature ridiculous ludicrous dick-headed distasteful loony cazoony, pixilated, bizarre, ignorant, obnoxious, lackluster, facile, over the Bottom (sic),moronic comments. Glad you're not a Dylan fan or you would be barred from attending any of his shows.
justforfun Doesn't he sound like a moronic moron. Probably a fan of the evil racist pornographer hate monger disgusting repugnant schlock jock HOWEIRDFARTMANSTERNSHIT or maybe he likes the world's biggest homophobe (her stupid nickname for herself) the evil spiteful vindictive still in the closet self hating lezbo michelle ugly Shocked a real freakazoid. Ugghhhh
dreadfull
hrxy1 EXACTLY! I hate to tell a sweetheart like her this But SOMEBODY HAS TO!
