Qué hermosa está Gillian con su melena plateada !!!

LOVE IT ❤️ RAY TWELVE STRINGS U.K 🎶

Nice one Jake.

Just sublime: Wish they would put Cruel Mother on an album

❤

Seldom does one experience the very pleasurable sense that the note(s) were played/sung EXACTLY the way one would have played them (if only he could play...or sing...) This video delivers that sensation. Thanks.

Great version! Need to listen to more Jimmy B

It was a hot July day in Atlanta when I first heard these guys on NPR in 1996. I wrote them a letter and they wrote me back. I have that letter framed. She sounds so young here.

Привет из России! Настолько глубокая песня.. Слёзы на глазах… Великолепное исполнение и вокал 👍🏻 Всем добра!

Thank you David and Gillian, that is truly a beautiful song and tune, from a 61 yr old music lover. Awesome, love it!

In such a TINY state, Vermont, LOL...did they really deserve this amazing favor?!!

Amazing recording. Do you have the whole show?

I know all about it, so you don't have to shout it

Timeless

Thank you for sharing this beauty.

Magic...

Didn't know this song existed until I saw The Gentlmen. Forgot about this song. Shame on me. Recently saw it again and now it's my new favorite tune. The 12 string is awesome!

they go together like cocaine and waffles these two

Music, music, music...

I beg you don`t delete it

Isn't it just great to watch and hear two musicians, so unpretentious, who so love their music? Long life and happiness to everybody.

Back when hardly was still good, last weekend 2024 looked like a regime clown show, don't think you can vote your way out of this situation. Too late

Is it just me or is David Rawlings a little "self-indulgent" with his lead guitar playing?

why am I only finding out Welch was on Conan in this year of 2024??? come on, algorithm, get with the program!

These two! Sheesh! I love 'em. Just picked up a '52 J50 last week. I see why Gil likes hers! Though it may be a few years newer.

Thanks. Sounds good.

These two people have no choice but to love each other. Brilliant

Phenomenal!

This is great. Thanks for posting!

Preety song

Thank you so much

Her song, Orphan Girl, reminds me of the Carter Family song, "Motherless Children". Motherless Children has a hard time when the mother is dead. Motherless Children has a hard time when the mother is dead. They are driven out in the cold, God knows where to go, Motherless Children has a hard time when the mother is dead. Orphan Children has a hard time in this world. Orphan Children has a hard time in this world. Sister does the best she can but she really don't understand. Orphan Children has a hard time in this world.

Gillian and David have put incredibly beautiful guitar music and melody singing to this hundreds-years-old Child Ballad (Child 20) collected deep in the Appalachian Mountains by Cecil Sharp in the very early 1900's. It originated in England as a folksong (unknown writer) in a time unknown but perhaps in the 1600's. It died in England but was rediscovered in the Appalachians a couple of hundred years later. It had been brought over by English settlers who had sang it only amongst themselves on their porches until heard by Mr. Sharp, who notated the songs in a book then transcribed them to sheet music. The original, if you hear it from someone in the Appalachians singing it, without accompaniment (these are "unaccompanied ballads") would be virtually unrecognizable to this recording, for various reasons. It has been recorded many dozens of times by mostly unknown folk artists but also by Judy Collins and Joan Baez. There are hundreds of versions of this folk song. Gillian has picked through many of them to create her own version. I hope they record their versions of these Child and Roud Ballads. It would be a wonderful service to humanity and help many to be able to listen to these documents of the early American folk music tradition. These are the songs that created Bluegrass, hill music, folk music and then rock music. This music is one of the greatest gifts America made to the world and it all came from the Appalachian Mts. and the Appalachian people but people nowadays know nothing of it. But it is arguably one of their greatest heritages as Americans.

This recording is a little #

The energy that flashes out from Gillian's eyes at 23:17 is incredible in this tale/song !!

Such a great film.

Flat-wounds!

Genius

They are known in the industry but not that much known by the general public.

I'm a big fan, but I do see that Gillian, here, is rewriting her own history, claiming when hearing folk records at college she "might really become a musician." Conveniently left out is that she was already a musician playing in bands - a goth band and a psychedelic surf band. But, oh, well.

The sound quality of this video to me is unacceptable. Sounds like a 'vintage' mp3. How are filtering and compression artefacts like audible phase burbling even still allowed? Or possible?

If push comes to shove I will carry you on one of my shoulders as long as it takes (or I die...)!! PS. This is what I call harmony!

This woman is such an inspiration!!

Wichita is one of my all time favourite song. But what about Acony Bell or Caleb Meyer?

Fly away on high , music from heaven. Beautiful.

Brilliant!

These two are the unified brilliance of acoustics, harmonies & message all rolled into one. We are lucky they ever met.

These two, David and Gillian are creators and performers of music in the highest degree,. Have been listening for years and always hear something old, much new and always a super treat.

Perfection !

Amazing harmony singing from these three. Beautiful song with really sensitive playing. So glad to have seen this. Thanks for the upload.
