Friday Sessions #26 // "Gold Dust Woman" (cover) featuring Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra

We had the pleasure of teaming up with the wonderful folks of @Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra for this week’s Friday Session! They're such an awesome bunch! It was heaps of fun playing this cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Gold Dust Woman” bluegrass style, at the awesome bar Krøsset in Oslo. Filmed by Nikolai Grasaasen.
Enjoy! And please subscribe!

Thank you!❤️

[@gregdahlen4375]

it's nice to see the singers smile and also the players one in particular. idk if musicians smile that much when they make music generally?

[@DarlingWest]

Yes! Sometimes it´s so much concentration, one forgets to smile, but here we just had so much fun. Glad you could tell:)

[@MrStevemarkevans]

Hva er oddsen for at jeg skulle oppdage to vanvittig bra Bluegrass band fra Norge på samme dag. Dette er helt vilt bra 🤠

[@DarlingWest]

Tusen takk! Så moro. Ja, dette var en gullgjeng å få spille med!

[@alexmorris452]

I thought they were Swedish ,,,,,,,,NORWAY is the place they are from ,,,,,,,,,magical ,,,,,,Norway gave us the vikings ,they are super at getting oil from the North Sea , hardy fishermen , and a brave country fighting the nazi influx during the war , nobody fought like the super brave people of that great nation ,,,,,,,,,and then you give us these talented group of lads and lassies called the hayde bluegrass orchestra , are there no end to Norwegian talent like this ,,,,,,,Sweden had ABBA and Norway has come back with this band to even the score a little .y

[@DanielCPurdy]

Listened to it first thing this morning on their video. Just as good as your video.

Takk! Det var gøy!

[@camillatagestadiversen6852]

@@DarlingWest DET tror jeg på! I august så våkna jeg på hytta her på Gålå og tusla ut på verandaen fordi jeg hørte vakker musikk fra Gålåvatnet. Hayde BO hadde da lydprøve før konsert på friluftscena og stemningen var til å ta å føle på der lyden bar seg på tretoppene. I september var vi på dere på Arnemoen Gard og hadde en fantastisk konsertopplevelse på første rad. (Vår 14åring var vel kveldens yngste fan og ble enda mere frelst.) Så da kan du tenke deg når jeg i dag kunne fylle kontoret mitt med fredags-musikken deres og da plutselig sammen med Hayde BO! FANTASTISK! Takk! God helg!

Kjempefint cover 😃

[@DarlingWest]

Takk for det! 😃

[@IdealDanl]

The feelings I get from this cover are stronger than any I recalled from listening to FM and Stevie for >40 years. Real? I just listened to eight versions, the Rumours original and seven live performances through 2004 (professionally recorded and mixed). Even on the original, compared to this performance, it sounds like Stevie is phoning it in. Her phrasing and emphasis is monochromatic -- like she's reading off a teleprompter. In later years, she is swallowing words. The poignant, pathetic description of the icy soul I hear in this cover is absent in Stevie's renditions. The lack of emotion in Stevie's versions is likely why the song never struck me before this version. Rock on DW / HBO.

[@IdealDanl]

(Though I must admit I was always partial to Christine McVie, going back to her Chicken Shack days.)

[@DarlingWest]

Thanks so much! This made our day! ❤️

[@IdealDanl]

@@DarlingWest Another version of GDW by FM popped on a playlist to which I was listening. What first caught my attention was Mick Fleetwood was on cow bell, someone else on drums (kid you not, cow bell...). And then Stevie begins to sing, and once again, flat and lifeless. I had to come back here and listen to the perfect rendition of the song.

[@DarlingWest]

@@IdealDanl Wow, Dan! Such kind words! And surreal. I mean Stevie Nicks.
