Gillian Welch and David Rawlings - One More Dollar (live)

[@MrMonikerjay]

They're so damn good it sounds like a studio recording. This is music.

[@mentaldetecting]

I was about to make the exact same point. Dave Rawlings and Gillian Welch are beyond perfect together.

[@garageink74]

But I miss those hills, with the windy pines.

[@remotegod255]

Pat Pattison sent me here. What a voice, what a tone, the arrangement is beautiful, great plucked strings. The harmonies.. wowwww. I love it

[@nofascistsonmywatch]

One of my absolute faves from them, along with "Orphan Girl", "Red Clay Halo", "Sing That Rock and Roll", and their (THE BEST of all of them!) cover of "Railroad Bill" ("Ride Ride")!!

[@TROUBADUO]

This is my favorite version of "One More Dollar"... Y'all knocked it outta the park once again Gil and Dave #priceless

[@jeannemarie4839]

So beautiful, makes me cry.

[@400outthedoor2]

And ain’t that just grand?

[@sunnyseacat6857]

Saw Gillian and Dave in Nashville many moons ago. This song was freshly written then and is timeless still as is Orphan Girl, Annabelle, Caleb Meyer, Paper Wings, Red Clay Halo......

[@thetinychapel]

Picking peaches in Arkansas in 1973, driving over from Texas to do that, and seeing how a little Mexican gal could pick faster and better than any of us who drove over from Austin, Seguin, and San Marcos...well it seems like a thousand years ago. At least I did get back to the red dirt and Blue Ridge in the end. Anyway, great song, thanks Gillian and David.

[@nofascistsonmywatch]

Sequin, the immortal Nanci Griffiths' birthplace! 😉

[@SatyarthShankar]

Anybody who got to this song without the help from Coursera deserves my salutes!

[@LivingformyJesus]

i did!

[@SatyarthShankar]

(salute)

[@justhuman3977]

dont have a clue what the hell Coursera is.. so I guess I am one of the few..

[@sirbattlecat]

I didn't. In fact, this is as far from my normal listening experience as you can come (metal and synth stuff), but I believe that if you're a musician you should feel like all music has merit - something that's worth taking away from it.

[@fredsonne9352]

thank you :)

[@Frisbieinstein]

One of the most beautiful sounds ever, if you ask me.

[@reihayashilim3362]

Hey there Coursera classmates! :D

[@saulferialopez6094]

hahahaha

[@violetfields3]

Rei Hayashi Lim hey:) at least we're all doing our work

[@kateshi219]

[@cristinaguitron4286]

[@dorl0987]

Rei Hayashi Lim hi glad we arent alone!!

[@gari-ellenbrick4474]

fab

[@gullreefclub]

This is what music is supposed to sound like

[@nasaka81]

"One More Dollar" A long time ago left my home For job in the fruit trees But I miss those hills with the windy pines Their song seemed to suit me So I sent my wages to my home Said, we'd soon be 'gether For the next good crop, pay my way And I'd come home forever One more dime to show for my day One more dollar and I'm on my way When I reach those hills, boys, I'll never roam 'Cause one more dollar and I'm going home No work, said the boss at bunkhouse door There's freeze on the branches So when the dice came out at bar downtown I rolled and took my chances One more dime to show for my day One more dollar and I'm on my way When I reach those hills, boys, I'll never roam 'Cause one more dollar and I'm going home A long time ago left my home Just a boy passing twenty Could you spare a coin and a Christian prayer My luck has turned against me One more dime to show for my day One more dollar and I'm on my way When I reach those hills, boys, I'll never roam Just one more dollar and I'm going home One more dollar, boys, I'm going home

[@JerryCagle]

Goosebumps. The quintessential american experience...

[@kp8923]

I really appreciate his pace and explanatory abilities.

[@mt-nv4jd]

Maybe the best folky recording in like forever.

[@movieboyXD]

Hellllo coursera!!! I don't usually like country even though I'm from Texas but this song is solo beautiful.

[@HunnyB]

Hello back to all my fellow Coursea classmates! Thanks for this playlist!

[@222Lightning]

when I was 20 I drew a pic of her in my art notebook from a music magazine. That was before I'd even known her music. Just thought she look cool as hell in that poke-dot blouse with an acoustic guitar.

[@lisazonder9069]

Songwriting that draws you in to the emotions evoked by being on a journey for something material and all the while thinking of home and missing home. Struggling with the notion that the dollars and luck will run out at some point. I feel the writer's concern that maybe the musical journey might end...seems to be a universal concern. Coursera still going strong many years later. Grateful.

[@francisfarinacci9866]

Hello Coursera classmates! Great song!

[@silverlining5876]

I am in love with this course !!! The songs are just amazing !! Thank you Pat for being a great teacher :)

[@Matejko]

Ha ha, that's too funny, I'm from Poland and I love country!

[@serenoart]

So awesome

[@robcrozierjazz]

This is an incredible song!

[@edelweissokeefe8265]

Thanks for putting this song list together. Makes it easier to refer back to for the course. :)

[@comanduke]

Hi, just wondering where is the list you mentioned. Thanks

[@alpineinc1]

They did 4 songs at this Prairie Home Companion show, which was never released officially - in order, Orphan Girl, Acony Bell, Caleb Meyer, and One More Dollar. I've posted Orphan Girl from this show on YT as well (it's also on the APHC-Duets collection) and may post the other two songs in the future. They've done a few APHC's over the years, many available for streaming on the show's site. I don't think this one is, however. And I agree, these songs are better stripped down than on Revival.

[@alpineinc1]

Lot of beauty here. As usual, David is masterful on his old Epiphone guitar, nice flourish around 1:50 and a great lead break starting at 2:47, right through into the last verse. And Gillian's vocal inflections on the last verse are heavenly.

[@dreamwell2020]

We have a gem here.

[@steveboyd3551]

It was tobacco and hay bales in middle Tennessee

[@DocBism]

These guys are.....perfect.

[@katherinebotula8917]

Coursera, nice lead to a fine song.

[@spiritedstrider]

[@dankeschoen4303]

Coursera is amaZzzing!

[@LexiMae707]

Wow.. There are so many people who go to Coursera.. Actually makes me feel much more "in place", if that makes sense ^_^

[@nancyadams9228]

A good old Norman Blake song. I sing it when “sangin”. Gillian’s interpretation is very plaintive.

[@aisfly]

Hello y'all from the Coursera!!!

[@keithcalmes1492]

Classic.

[@oxboworchard5610]

Favorite track on Boots No. 1!

[@elenathomson1816]

I have to listen to these songs for coursera

[@marekprz]

sweet!

[@willarity6927]

They're singing my song.

[@lastnickeldrifter]

Coursera? never heard of them...Nashville Bluegrass Band covered it in 1995. Saw G&D in 1996.

[@alubershane]

Made an animation based on this song, check it out: Lubertoon - One More Dollar...in space (music by Gillian Welch)

[@lesliefillion4167]

Would you happen to know where/how I could by this particular soundtrack? I like it much better than the studio version on the Revival album. I'm hoping to sing it at an open mic cafe in a couple weeks. Thanks!

[@FernandoGuerreiro]

Hi Coursera guys :)

[@madeleinelonghurst571]

Hi coursera class mates :) Just trying to hear the lyrics - I don't usually bother to listen to lyrics after the first verse and the chorus lol!

[@HillaryMarek]

so if we posted the answer in the thread does that break the honor code??

[@rensagalirte]

Me too. Coursera

[@svenlittlecross]

whats with the coursera stuff i wanna kno

[@GeorgeBrindeiro]

Why not? Open your mind, it's all music!

[@butterflyforesthawai]

Who are the 28 people with no mortal soul?

[@zacharymandell9591]

not exactly my style of music, but goddamn this is gorgeous.

[@CuppaTCat]

haha yep Coursea brought me here

[@shaneeradilshan]

Hey Coursera Fellaz how are you ?

[@seamasrigh2162]

Hello Coursera - Verse is verse, it's all in the construction. Though none of the songs on this quiz were to my liking. They just don't speak to me, emotionally. Technically, yes.

[@matthewbeckwith4861]

what's a coursera??? lol

[@kevinheydenrych5150]

+Matthew Beckwith Check here... www.coursera.org/learn/songwriting/

Coursera, 1 year on, same songs it seems :D

[@briane596able]

If it’s not broke don’t go trying to fix it. Think that’s how it goes

[@xaedes]

that is in key F, or?

[@CriticallyAlive]

xaedes A I believe, although I play it in G.

[@CriticallyAlive]

Correction, it's in D, but I play it in G.

[@shs2017]

What's up coursera people.

[@MRcDraper]

Why must we even try to interpret the words of country singers? I'm googling the lyrics. Hello fellow Courseraians.

[@SoadMansory]

Hello Classmates :D
