Billy Strings "Seven Bridges Road"

10/30/2019 Knoxville TN Bijou Theater

This song is pure magic. I´m from Juarez Mexico but I have a strong love for America and its people and of course, for country music, 5 years ago I drove from El Paso TX to Phoenix AZ, listening the Eagles and Steely Dan all the way, I met really nice people and watched dozens of red mountains, it was definitely the most spiritual experience of my life. I think Billy Strings is doing an outstanding job for America and the world of music, Grammy dont lie!

[@zachhessler8722]

I'm glad you could come to America and experience those feelings, the people, and the natural beauty. For all the craziness in the US now, it still has that something that is spiritual for some of us. So happy you got to connect.

[@justinhuff7915]

I wish you well my brother. I’m glad you were met with kindness and respect in Arizona. I hope is a well.

[@ohbabycat]

Billy Strings and lucky me, walking the earth at the same.

[@charleydickson5344]

My mother used to sing this to me, when i was just a baby. Back before we lost all we held dear, and back before i had learned the struggles of life, before i lost innocense and joy. This song will always be close to me.

[@derektramp3773]

I think you just wrote a new verse to this song. 1 yr later, I hope joy has returned.

[@HellCamino]

What a beautiful comment

[@3ldr1tch]

Written by one of the most incredible American Songwriters 'Steve Young'. A good performance. I'm sure Steve would be happy his songs continue to live on. He was a wonderful guitarist and singer.

[@NARISHMA42]

As someone who agrees with The Dude when it comes to the Eagles, this song is magic.

[@MTNJOHN]

I've had a long night... but don't worry this is actually a Steve Young original, the fuckin eagles covered

[@spencertherren6806]

​@@MTNJOHNAnd covered perfectly.

[@madmattdrummer5487]

Don’t sleep on the eagles

[@HeadOutOnTheHighway]

One of the most harmonically sang songs...EVER!

[@steveself3570]

That was some mighty fine a pickin and a sangin...

[@clemsplace]

Honestly, had I been there, I'd have been singing with them, so I get it. Nothing can dim one of the most beautiful songs ever penned, played or sung. Thank you, Steve Young.

[@chrisdavis2742]

Dixie sky still the truth, even in 2023 , 1984 whatever it is in Fed land my Alabama happy places still look the same. They are coming though. Sad time. Southern men aren't what they used to be. God forgive us, and give us a hand up.This music is timeless.

[@chrisdavis2742]

Didn't mean these guys aren't the same as bad ass Southerners. They are the hope. God bless them, and guide them....music is powerful.Can take souls if not careful.

[@markwilliams8532]

I don't think I have heard anything he and his band have done i didn't like. Basically they are all amazing musician. Great job on the harmony. You guys get a 10+

[@lynnpeirce3205]

Glenn Frey is proud🎸🎵❤️

[@jaimebowen5684]

Love some Billy Strings!! Dust in the Baggie and Cocaine Blues are great by him as well! He can saw the neck off a guitar! Pure freaking talent with a country twang! OMG...

[@ALPACABOWLCOMPANY]

Intense & beautiful.

[@kathleenwhite6148]

I first knew this song in the 70s, when Crosby stills nash did it, have since learned that the Carter sisters did it (as in June Carter cash).....and am now hearing bill monroe also did it.....such a wonderful beautiful song!!!!!!! From sooooo long ago!!!!

[@jerimahstonebreaker7236]

There is nothing wrong with this song I like it a lot ever since I've first heard it when I was little Billy Strings is an awesome singer

[@QueenofNonSequitur]

So glad you guys performed THIS.

[@zibabird]

Fantastic as always! Thank you for posting, shared.

[@oldsoundz]

My favorite Eagles song by my favorite flap pickin phenom. Beautiful!

[@ioanniskostoulas3843]

oldsoundz actually its Steve Young's song

[@oldsoundz]

@@ioanniskostoulas3843 Thanks for the info. I have been meaning to listen to some Steve Young after learning he was responsible for Rock Salt and Nails. One more reason to go down that road. Cheers!

[@connyfjellner2481]

@@ioanniskostoulas3843 ...and the Eagles "borrowed" Ian Matthews arrangement 1980, 8 years after his release in 1972 kzbin.info/www/bejne/b17WgpmFfr16mJo

[@bradstribling]

And rock salt and nails was actually written by Utah Phillips. When Steve Young recorded it, he took a little heat for some of the lyrics … Even though it wasn’t his song. All he was doing was doing was giving attention to a really well written song. One of the reasons I’m happy to hear these younger guys keep 7 Bridges Rd. alive.

[@doctorotis3743]

Off the Charts. Such Tone Love!

[@joshwatson1971]

This was awesome

[@Sunshine-jl3un]

[@TheBluegrassJunky]

[@willielodge7576]

Y'ALL DID GOOD💯💯💯

[@yjjeepman]

That one hits better than most. They nailed and nailed it hard!!!

[@debo7166]

Outstanding!

[@teriley]

really wish people would keep their yapping and their yelping to themselves on songs like this or freedom (spoken as a concert yelper). There is a time and a place people.

[@jpwilhelm1975]

Tim Riley same here, save the hootin and hollering for the end.

[@bryancozort2068]

Agreed. As a musician myself that gets on the nerves. I know they mean good but it can be distracting. These guys have good tune out skills.

[@94757598494309438]

Agreed. Knoxville is really bad for that....

[@JacksonLinn.]

I was at this concert and at the beginning of a song I would yap and holler but after that I wouldn’t. I agree people that do it for the whole song just need to shut up.

[@schwartzenheimer1]

Needs to be a 'shit-kickin, inbred dick' exclusion rule at the gate, keepin' out the yelpers

[@agnome1176]

WOW! TALKIN' SHINING STARS!

[@authenticvegas]

I've seen Billy twice (Ohanafest and Las Vegas) and his sets are magical. I do keep waiting for this one, though. The Steve Young original is amazing, but I do like how they channel the Eagles here.

[@lisajustice4]

Love it ❤❤❤❤

[@Skootsem]

Well done, gentlemen!

[@zdr5191]

Amazing!

[@robertfellinjr8020]

beautiful! thx t shaw!

[@jerimahstonebreaker7236]

Not me I like this song a lot

[@Appalachained]

Top of the line

[@donadunsmore6283]

Seems I am always late to the party! Love this guy.

[@fuzzybutkus3951]

Don’t worry he’s still real young. Welcome to the party by the way. Keeps getting bigger and bigger.

[@mackpainter7445]

I got here as fast as I could

[@callys238]

yesssssss

[@barkingstarz4730]

Lovely rendition, obviously based on Eagles’ take, which was (probably) based on Ian Matthews’ cover, all versions, of course, composed by the late great Steve Young!

[@monsterk7603]

Chills.

[@Christopher_Bachm]

Wow!

[@terahcrawford]

Chills

[@kc03300]

impressive harmony

[@danielwilson8112]

[@chynnadawl9022]

Hot dayem!

[@houndsman911]

❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥

[@wingsofsteel3246]

Great

[@staggerproof5589]

Love Billy Strings and his band. Unfortunately the only time I went to see them in Knoxville recently, people like those shouting and hooting on this video caused me and my wife to walk out. Such a shame, I will never see them live again, the KZbin vids are all I will see.

[@afdccesd470]

The crowd knew their role. The crowd shouts exactly like the eagles version

[@jettglover1187]

badass

[@mikeg949]

Fuck yeah! Love this shit!

[@juniorbailey8407]

thems my buddies

[@kathleenwhite6148]

Listen to the "Carter sisters" version...as in June Carter Cash.....with her sisters, before she met Johnny Cash.....

[@micksherlock4083]

Are you making stuff up? Song was written by Steve Young in 1969. She met Cash in 1968. The Carter family recorded it in the early 70's.

[@elliotportner8020]

Billy has great vocal strength and power to match his guitar quality

[@kristielawrence393]

Better than the original imo.

[@josephcalitri5710]

Your opinion is wrong

[@ItsOverFatKid]

Comment!

[@melonhead49]

Oh shit

[@bigal25938]

What a great job. Could have done without the audience members screaming out. Don’t really want to hear them.

[@donwade-di8ny]

If everyone could sing just a little higher! Bluegrass version of The eagles... Hmmmmm

[@F15Bluto]

How awesome could this be…if the clowns in the crowd would shut up? It’s not about you.

[@brettworley3614]

Can’t beat the original eagles, not even close

[@KSfan4ever]

have to agree

[@telecasterblue]

a half decent cover

[@stv111play]

Stick to kackalacly not cali wanna be

[@lallikallio1370]

Daniel Radcliffe this desperate for a job?
