Fleet Foxes Tour Documentary - Robin Pecknold 2010

[@peterpcarroll]

My best attempt at annotating all of the music in this wonderful film. (I’d welcome corrections / thoughts!) 0:00 - fingerpicking from the beginning section of "The Cascades" 1:04 - cover of "That Lonesome Road" written by Gene Austin and Nathaniel Shilkret (though Robin is playing the a rendition closest to John Jacob Niles) 3:01 - vocalizing in sound check - sounds to me like "gold teeth and gold jewelry…" from "Montezuma" (which would match the timeframe well), though others in the comments have mentioned that it sounds to them like "Third of May" 4:11 - "Silver Dagger" - folk song with origins in the early 19th century; made popular in the 1960s by Joan Baez 5:52 - "White Lace Regretfully" (demo available on the First Collection 2006-2009; the original idea being for this to transition into "The Plains / Bitter Dancer"; full performance of this lovely song (and the rest of Robin’s performance from MusicNOW, for that matter) at 18 : 26 of "Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes at MusicNOW" kzbin.info/www/bejne/ip7RZKeqp72Mf8k). 6:40 - (transition from performance above to same tune in hotel room) 7:11 - very short clip from Joanna Newsom’s song "’81" 7:27 - impressive tambura and fiddle warm ups by Ryan Francesconi and Mirabai Peart (as someone points out below, they were part of Joanna Newsom's backing band during that tour). 8:38 - cover of "Blues Run the Game" by Jackson C. Frank 11:39 - fingerpicking "The Shrine / An Argument" 12:08 - beautiful bridge to "Blue Spotted Tail" - you can find the full version of this, starting at 1 : 40 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6DRd3mGr8qbqLM. Robin also hums the melody from this bridge in the studio version of the song 13:19 - "Blues Run the Game" performed by Jackson C. Frank

Robin is my favorite tenor in the universe. His voice is so warm and euphoric like I've known it all my life.

[@tanaquinz]

I envy his relationship with his siblings so much

[@RockandRollWoman]

Wow, Robin is really young here. Still with that amazing voice... 💙

[@moony4566]

3.05 he's soundchecking 3rd May/Odaigahara... watching this in 2017 Crack Up is about to come out. Goosebumps.

[@sarllsspencer]

He has one of the most enjoyable voices I've ever heard. I will always be a fan! Keep making music man!!

[@eLStromy]

aja pecknold is so beautiful

[@twodays90]

Robin's voice sounds phenomenal in the video. On this minitour, his voice was at an intermediate stage between the raspier/lower tone of the first record and the higher pitch of his most recent tour. But he has sounded amazing throughout his career; his voice just seems super healthy here.

[@angelaSunrae]

Robin's voice is just my absolute favorite.

[@neilcrowesongs9768]

Incredible depth and breadth comes out when he sings

[@salsmusicetc67]

12:10 oh my goodness that is so beautiful. Its a early version of blue spotted tail but its so amazing like that

[@felixmontanez4090]

i kinda enjoy that lyric more

[@benoit252]

This video is so inspiring, whenever I feel down on myself I watch this and remember why I started making music in the first place

[@edmundcoyle364]

Wow! Am gone on 1 of those metaphorical voyages that this world wide web enables one do. Up to about 48 hours ago I thought that song about the blues was a Pecknold or Fleet Foxes song. Since then I'm on a voyage discovering Jackson C Frank. Robert's version: brilliant.

[@Zombywoof91]

The amazing Joanna Newsom at 3:02

[@heatherl7680]

amazing! Robin is so talented.

[@IanAannevik]

He is really inspirational, Robins voice is wonderful

[@thetreesify]

this documentary always makes me happy, i have an unhealthy obsession with robin pecknold XD

[@iremklncdemir7650]

Me too

[@theone456]

[@affanfadillah1200]

[@snaresparkles]

[@paraguayrules]

About the song at 5:50: "It's called White Lace, Regretfully and will be on a 7'' that comes out with my sisters new magazine hopefully!" -Robin, from his twitter account.

[@GraditudevsRevenge]

If I could have anyones singing voice, it would be his.

[@jazzmeister22]

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

[@jimcappadona]

[@krdtsmj4]

[@rramone]

[@bobbyfrostful]

[@IanAannevik]

Beautiful venue, too!

10:45 the little whistle he does hear sounds just like the one in Bunny Is A Rider by Caroline Polachek. It's even in the same key. please let me know if anyone knows what I'm talking about lol

[@browneyedgirl876]

Robin definitely grows on you!

[@Johiwiwi]

I really love it, it's a beautiful video

[@ModestlyBlazed]

Beautiful cover of Jackson C Frank's "Blues run the game".

[@gladystimm]

Realmente, foi um achado especial!

[@browneyedgirl876]

Thanks

[@wezzlyn]

It's really interesting watching this now that Helplessness Blues has been out for a while, and you can hear how he's working on some of those songs.

[@oldhousesandtaverns]

I cried a little ;)

[@tanaquinz]

Kamil Florczak i cried a lot

[@JamesMcGillLives]

I believe the cascades from Helplessness Blues. Or it sounds like the chords from that particular song.

[@adaxel]

it's from the "shrine/an arguement" but he doesn't finger pick it in any other version than this one, as far as I know. So cool though!!!

[@browneyedgirl876]

Really wish I had a version of Blue Spotted Tail that had the verse Robin is singing in this video at 12:10. So good!

[@limestoneheart]

1:12 - Fuck. Goosebumps.

[@drakeholliday5671]

ROBIN WHERE ARE YOU?!

[@coleudall14]

He's touring again with Joanna real soon here! They're coming to SLC UT, but it's a 21+ show so I can't go. I can't tell you how sad I am.

[@coleudall14]

+Zach Reid I may do that. Hopefully.

[@ferudmer]

"I thought he was 38!" hahahaha CUTE!

[@MrSookazz]

12:08- Blue Spotted Tail

[@ilovejustinvernon]

nope not nick d. it's originally by jackson c. frank and that's the version i think he's covering.

[@FuturephonicEducation]

Does this share footage with the video for Other Lives' 'Tamer Animals?' The sort of animated city.

[@browneyedgirl876]

I'm dying to find a version of Blue Spotted Tail with the bridge in it that Robin sings between 12:10-13:00.

[@peterpcarroll]

As someone else points out here, there is a complete live version of this in the second half of this MusicNow performance clip: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6DRd3mGr8qbqLM
