Warwick university..... My best friend and me saw the concert with you of you ....Russ was ecstatic that he got to eventually meet his idol mr billy bragg ....sadly Russ passed away 6 months later

[@RS-os7wm]

One of those songs that resonates with you , John Hartford created a true classic sung by so many artists .Pure lyrical bliss

[@GiovyMalfiori]

I came back some days ago from a railtrip through the West Coast of the USA and I have to thank you for Shine a Light. I listened to it by chance and that album inspired me that journey. Thank you Billy, Thank you Joe.

[@cjknotty]

Saw Billy & Joe sing this in Canterbury last night. Great uplifting evening.

[@elektrolurch68]

Am 1.2.23 ist die Beerdigung meines besten Freundes. Diese Musik wird spielen. Nur für dich alter Freund.

[@soulexplosion007]

Mein Beileid 🎉😢

[@paulgunn9263]

Heard this this on the Huey Morgan show this morning driving into work. Stunning.

[@chuckabbate5924]

I was at Northeastern in 1986 when we had Billy and his compatriot Wiggy do a duet concert in the campus student center...great show.

[@paolocanti3035]

Thank you Billy! Two of my favourite songwriters singing this beautyful song...

[@paulkelly4202]

If you look closely Joe Henry is leading this and Billy is reading off a cheat sheet below him but great version of this song.

[@eclecticmusica]

2016? How it took me three fucking years to find this (or KZbin to finally get it right) is beyond me, but so glad I did.

[@monicamcguiness7798]

Awesome song. Awesome voices. Lovely stuff lads.

[@soulexplosion007]

❤ thank you for such a wonderful version

[@EranEdry]

I first fell in love with this song when i found an old clip of Johnny Cash and Cass Elliot singing it together as part of a medley. Never heard it in its entirety. This is spine-tinglingly beautiful.

[@thomasdungl8493]

Very strong, sensitive part of such a wonderful session, thank you so much for sharing!

[@DavidTransformer]

Big welcome guaranteed tonight in Glasgow as part of Celtic Connections. Loving this cover.

[@barbarageitz1023]

I saw Billy Bragg & Joe Henry at the Byron Bay Blues Festival & I think I may have had a little tear in my eye after this number.

[@Tony-mn7vo]

Nice song

[@CPSLondon]

I found this on a recommendation of a friend who knows how much I love this song....Damn this is amazing. I love it.

[@JeffreySykes]

This is sparsely wonderful.

[@BluegrassPhil]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ John Hartford was a genius and this rendition is AWESOME !

[@una790]

Could not agree more...

[@DaveMacIntyreYYZ]

So beautiful! Toronto was epic!! XX

[@Seanog1982]

This would life your heart.

[@watchingyou5247]

It's knowing that your door is always open And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag Rolled up and stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shackled By forgotten words and bonds And the ink stains that are dried upon some line That keeps you in the backroads By the rivers of my memory That keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy Planted on their columns now that bind me Or something that somebody said Because they thought we fit together walking It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find That you're moving on the backroads By the rivers of my memory And for hours you're just gentle on my mind Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines And the junkyards and the highways come between us And some other woman's cryin' to her mother 'Cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' Cracklin' caldron in some train yard My beard a rustling, cold towel, and A dirty hat pulled low across my face Through cupped hands 'round the tin can I pretend to hold you to my breast and find That you're waiting from the backroads By the rivers of my memories Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind

[@leebruce7923]

Merci beaucoup

[@cammiethebricklayerruncorn5701]

I absolutely love this, great song from yester year brought to the present with beauty and grace.

[@nollaiglonergan1729]

Great cover

[@roman.venica]

One of my favourite song of all times. Big hug from Argentina.

[@MacWalther]

ok. Beautiful.

[@orbfile]

I can't believe that the two of you were a mere two miles away from where I type this comment, and I didn't know about it. Please come back and play for the citizens of San Antonio.

[@coneyislandgirl930]

I love these artists, this song, and this video. Fantastic work, Ray! ~Gail

[@rayfoley2797]

Thank you Gail!

[@JackCerro]

"I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' Cracklin' caldron in some train yard My beard a roughening coal pile, And a dirty hat pulled low across my face" ------- F.U. John Hartford------- Sincerely Every would be song writer ever.

[@chuckabbate5924]

Beautiful

[@therushden]

Best song, off a brilliant album 👏😎👍🔥

[@smithy280663]

saw them live at the Sydney Opera House a few years back..............sensational.

[@davidmurphy2301]

Such a great tour

[@4theHeroman]

Great show last night!

[@TechNed]

Just beautiful. John Hartford was so great.

[@blakeallyn4152]

This is amazing. Good lord.

[@okrajoe]

The world needs more duets!

[@coricasala]

magic

[@RosePetal17]

No tickets left for Toronto show :( I left it too late...I'm sad!!!

[@scrumpadelic]

Rose Petal they're playing at Hillside festival in Guelph next weekend (14-17 July). Go.

[@RosePetal17]

Hi Darrell, I wouldn't have been able to get there anyway. Thank You so much for letting me know

[@scrumpadelic]

I heard it sucked :(

[@raymondbrown2107]

Have up when I sang like this.

[@neilrafferty2097]

Is this song in the top 10 ever written ?

[@SteveMoorebuttermilkmedia]

MY first office was in Al Delory's office with 7 grammys on the wall -

[@cristianhill7379]

I don't care a jot for Mr Bragg's politics but this is one of the most beautiful things I've heard in a long while. More please!

[@TwangThang57]

Gorgeous sound! What ribbons are you using?

[@Raymantico]

moving version

[@carlmanguitar]

😁👍🏻

[@giupezio]

diciamo che il tempo passa, non ci sono più le stagioni di una volta, non ci sono più i simon e garfunkel degli anni 70 ma in cambio ci ritroviamo questi due ...poveri noi

[@damionmarkham9835]

oi!

[@nicholaskazmierski4706]

anyone know the tuning on this?

[@mark03101992]

Dying to know as well... lol

[@gortagnan]

Me too !?

[@ryanfischer2889]

Key of E and capo on the 3rd fret. This is a great song

[@leoc3149]

Really late but I was trying to learn this a few months ago and I’m pretty sure standard tuning but drop D with a capo on 3rd as stated by another commentator. I’d play with the tuning of the E as I’m not entirely sure if it’s exactly drop D or tuned a bit lower

[@bertramblik8826]

I don't get the weezered joke. But your piano paying is amazing! From a jazz musician. Which Weezer song's melody are you playing?

[@willbee7925]

That's not Billy Bragg!!!!

[@king77703]

Yeah it is.

[@garystevens4303]

Can only here the other bloke (whoever he is). Bragg doesn't exactly have a singing voice, just a protest drawl!
