RIDGE TOP SERIES // SHAKEY GRAVES “Rotten Ol Me”

[@alexanderclambell9188]

the firework or gunshot was timed so perfectly

[@israelhammans7329]

Can’t hear another version now

[@derrincalk9579]

I believe Bob Ross would call it a "happy accident"

[@joelworthen5087]

@@israelhammans7329 yeah this one is still better than the newly released version

[@dabberoosky8103]

This

[@nickburleson3312]

God clapping at his creation.

[@seellsworth]

This is one of my favorite Shakey Graves videos. I come back to it often and then it transport me to somewhere nostalgic.

[@Thrivewithliz333]

My son just shared this artist with me today years old (39)❤absolutely new favorite ❤️ I’ve shared to anyone I knew would enjoy it 🎉❤😂😅😊God Bless you and yours sir. Thank you for sharing your talent with us lucky ones !!

[@belliott88]

I genuinely believe that this man is a once in a century type of fella. And he's "just gettin' his feathers wet..."

[@cortroxx85]

I’m so so so glad I stumbled across him! Amazing! His guitar playing along with his voice, you can’t get any better! * except for Father John Misty lol Shakey graves is close behind!!

[@roycotterill5263]

I am obsessed with shakey graves. saw him twice in the last week

[@Mosey410]

He sure is something,truth be told there’s a fuck ton of talent out there that most of us will never hear. Neighborhood bars and street corners,local bands and cheap beer. His new record is fire 🔥

[@MaryJo-t4g]

His "feathers" wet, but not drowning, in debt, from the US and foreign courts of illegal activities and illegal accidents, of their illegal" incidents" and whaaaaat productivity " all I hear about or see is the destruction of the United States of America!

[@biglipsjim]

Shakey at the end " I'm still figure it out and it's psfft." No son, that was it.

[@bgierat]

The guitar playing is so incredible

[@jordanowens6253]

He can sing beautifully but absolutely shreds guitar. This dude found his calling. ❤

[@joshuacamacho9755]

"Still figuring it out" so modest for a god

[@kevink4932]

Just when I thought he couldn't get any better, he busts out a gem like this.

[@light_and_sound]

soothing and beautiful

[@darlenedelaroca6204]

One of my favorites... they are all my favorite everything you do magic....love you

[@dylanfletcher2138]

I just listened to this and I’m listening to it again for the third time now as I text this, it’s deep and very relatable don’t ever change sometimes I feel like music is dying but then I hear something like this and I feel like picking up my guitar and playing again, don’t ever change.

[@wandering_dirtbag]

[@Huhwutok]

Nobody can appreciate this man feel lost in the generation of wilds, thank you Mr. Shakey for keeping it real and playing truly good music...

[@DiscipleofJesus_2024]

I'm in love, his musical vibrations bring on the most delicious delivery of timing. PERFECT!

[@ricocortez7467]

That gun shot or firework was perfectXD

[@corylattanzio2922]

You are loved!!! ❤️

[@hannahlafaso8356]

Best moment lived was this show 🫥🤍

[@kileace9610]

I wish I could expeince something like this .this is the first shakey graves song I learned how to play been enthralled with open d tuning an finger picking. tha ks shakey

[@tharris171]

Kile Ace could you post a tab? And a picking pattern? I would really appreciate it!

[@november8039]

That shit is hard, congrats dude

[@november8039]

Also tabs would be awesome

[@atom-o-tronic3505]

There's something to be said about playing a relaxing woodsy song on top of a hill while a screaming garage band concert echoes in the foreground

[@derrincalk9579]

This needs to be more popular lol my favorite personally of yours Shakey. Would love to hear the audio on Spotify someday too

[@derrincalk9579]

That little riff at the end just tops it off so well lol

[@setheps]

I've loved this song for a long time, and just now relating to the lyrics. Like a lot.

[@thegrowers420]

So far, my favorite version of this song. Big time.

[@markcannon2766]

Can't wait until he takes over

[@ConcordKillagr8]

That noise was probably someone's head exploding probably no big deal to him by now

[@mathewraimbault1793]

Concord KiLLa reminds me of the scene from Tenacious D and the pick of destiny

[@jillianjones257]

I read this comment seconds before that sound went of bahaha

[@israelhammans7329]

I Have to listen to this version Every time now for that sound

[@KeeganWoodward]

beautiful vermont! beautiful song!

[@beccarichardson]

Amazing.

[@joelworthen5087]

8 years later and he released this song he was "still figuring out" lmao

[@AbsoluteAstronaut]

Top notch artist, top notch song.

[@whassupd.1098]

I'm in love how have I not heard of him yet.

[@dustinroy4586]

Danielle Seems to me you need to be spending a decent amount of time diving into the web and learn about him, (unless, of course you already have, seeing as your comment posted 5 months ago when the earth was still relatively normal). Dive into KZbin, search his records out. If you know where to look and who to talk to, you’ll fare just fine.

[@lukeskywalker8145]

Hell yeah. Forgot …should be writing music. Love this guy so amazing

[@bradleymunro4625]

Just quality mate... Saw you at Camden London uk.. Looking forward to you coming again need more talent like that here 👍👍

[@belieberforlife46]

Beautiful.

[@johndudley635]

I love the shout out to the Shel Silverstein song title.

[@maxfrench9538]

The bang was on beat 😂😂

[@Markingramforheisman]

This video. I've watched it lots. I wonder why it has so few views though?

[@Demo6262]

Obviously you don't watch it enough.

[@Markingramforheisman]

It's certainly gained some traction in the last 2 years!

[@arachnohack9050]

Because the newer generations don't understand

[@aronsimpson3444]

There is a pow wow in the background or native singing that just adds to the coolness dude

[@michellemoore9839]

Would love to see you play with Shovels and Rope!

[@drock5597]

That's a great idea!

[@light_and_sound]

He has.

[@DudeImHereAlready]

Anyone know where to look up chords/tabs???!!!! LOVE YOU SHAKEY 4L

[@GreenDayfreak717]

he's so attractive 💖💖💖😍😍😍

[@thewess26]

Such a good song!

[@meaganariel9171]

god damnit he's so beautiful

[@victorkinzer7822]

RIGHT?!?!?!

[@MrFrendan]

Meagan Morgan exquisite

[@acma200]

He really is though, and this is coming from a (mostly) straight dude. Would definitely suck him off.

[@lorilangley4574]

amen

[@CharlesTheClumsy]

[@fred120364]

Be Rich Hey, thanks for your work in tabbing this song!

[@brich233]

no problem, it was my 1st and last tab I ever did lol

[@Shifty0525]

RIP DMX

[@RobertRoss-pu9tj]

Now there's music

[@Tenskwatawa4U]

No better-timed gunshot in the history of....

[@miniruss123]

LOVE YOU

[@staror890]

Previous to the video "Ok i'll give you 20 quid to fire your gun at this exact time, don't ask questions it will be cool I swear"

[@x4x665]

Rory Malone what the fuck is a quid bro?

[@calcium97]

Shane tindall A quid is slang for a pound

[@x4x665]

Callum Gough. Ahhh not sure why I didn't connect the dots. I have an American public school education, please forgive me lol

[@calcium97]

Shane tindall Believe me, I highly doubt the British education system is much better! If you've got the money for a private school then you're set in life, otherwise you're pretty screwed, I'm sure it's the same sort of deal in America

[@-damnit]

Gunshot at the perfect time. Only in Texas.

[@cambennett2857]

Vermont actually, beautiful state

[@lwb256]

That was an awesome moment.

[@jillianjones257]

At a festival...this is the kind of music I gravitate thru the tents to. Avoiding trip wires and planting my ass un invited in front of

[@MaryJo-t4g]

I'm a mother, not a nun or a single woman, I'm a mother, since 1989, I was pregnant during 1988 not just a wife, of an baby boy, that was born during 1965, during 1987!

[@barryanderson8347]

This is the best version of this song. The record version is electric and is good but pails in comparison.

[@randipoirier2958]

I can't even listen to the studio version 😵

[@1blackfrend]

Inspired

[@carmendelaroca4540]

I love you

[@DudeImHereAlready]

Where can I find a download? CD? Anything!!

[@joshmatney8159]

what an attention grabbing intro, chorus, and hook!! Dude always sells out, plays with all his heart.

[@priiimmrose]

Tabs?

[@doncard9228]

That gun shot!

[@brandongazica4702]

Awesome

[@djghettofunk2530]

What mic was used?

[@mike87364]

What was the mic used to record this?

[@arsenicpharaoh413]

3:43 bonza\m/

[@delhoncho8811]

Nothing like a gun shot in the background in the middle of your jam 😅

[@Sterkan93]

What guitar is this?

[@Dudelikey0]

+Sterkan93 It's a loar small body acoustic, check their site.

[@LexMassive]

What tuning is this?

[@LexMassive]

Open C#. Hard to play half decently.

[@november8039]

I find it extremely difficult

[@gaiangnosis5218]

Fuck yes... if loveshh the way then loveshhh the end

[@alanmalcheski8882]

so this is south by southwest? yeah i can see why people go to that.

[@susankairn2171]

Probably isn't a man I'm more attracted to.

[@amesbrice]

Why was that gun shot on beat? Lol

[@montroseringler494]

Staged or not, the gunshot was dope.

[@everetttuckee1905]

[@MaryJo-t4g]

Oh, he isn't drowning in debt, as the rest of us American women and our children all are!!!?!?????????

[@c0zeable]

Sad tha tthat stupid base in the background makes your head explode, takes focus of the song:)

[@deannawolfe6669]

[@Markingramforheisman]

Did you expect him to stay in suspenders an a fedora for the rest of his life? ;)

[@rogerengle2509]

[@henriquelima3649]

roger engle search on utube: How to tune in "Open D" its quite easy, good for slides, folk, blues, fingerstyle... Enjoy
