Gregory Alan Isakov - The Stable Song (Live @Pickathon 2014)

[@LauraRose44]

In my opinion, the best version of this song ❤

[@timgallagher1041]

Sometimes I despair about the state of the music we hear these days compared to my youth (60s & 70s), then I come across a genius like this. Warms my heart!

[@mandyblaxland847]

that plucking on the fiddle = nice

[@Living2bLoved]

❤️❤️❤️

[@sarceexplores]

Picking the fiddle at the Pickathon. Seems like the appropriate thing to do 🤭😁

[@rosepena712]

this is my favorite version of his classic song....that banjo player guy is one of his newer musicians and i can tell he is like a soul brother....he really adds a nice touch to his songs

[@harryvandegoor]

Steve Varney is a brilliant musician!

[@stickybandit327]

remember when our songs were just like prayers. like gospel hymns that you called in the air. come down come down sweet reverence, unto my simple house and ring… and ring. ring like silver, ring like gold ring out those ghosts on the ohio ring like clear day wedding bells were we the belly of the beast or the sword that fell…we’ll never tell. come to me clear and cold on some sea watch the world spinning waves..like some machine now i’ve been crazy couldn’t you tell i threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell now i’m covered up in straw, belly up on the table well and sang and drank, and passed in the stable. that tall grass grows high and brown, well i dragged you straight in the muddy ground and you sent me back to where i roam well i cursed and i cried, but now i know…now i know and i ran back to that hollow again the moon was just a sliver back then and i ached for my heart like some tin man when it came oh it beat and it boiled and it rang..it’s ringing ring like crazy, ring like hell turn me back into that wild haired gale ring like silver, ring like gold turn these diamonds straight back into coal.

Narcan Nova beautiful

[@amaise1480]

I've watched this many times, and i think, it's just perfect.

[@stickyfacade3388]

My favorite version is the colorado symphony one I'll listen to it over and over

[@TheBartBarton]

I picked a banjo for years when I was young....ain’t ever seen anyone do it like this...my god...when his head gets moving you know....never seen better..

[@Paris876]

Is this an acceptable choice for a wedding song? It's so lovely, but bittersweet.

[@Seattlepsych1]

See him live if you get the chance. Amazing talent.

[@erastusndakize4765]

Beautiful music ❤❤ Am sure we shall be singing these hymns in heaven 😊😊

[@mdogg1604]

Kaylan, TY so much for introducing me to the music of GAI. I know you love horses, so I'm sure you love this song too. I miss you. Matt (in Iowa).

[@michaels7416]

Found this randomly on KZbin Music. Such a great piece. So simple. Sometimes less is more.

[@samsmith1819]

t's life. "Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table And I drank and sang, and I passed in the stable" He's dead or dying wishing he could do it all over again. Billy Graham was asked if there was anything about life that surprised him. He said yes, how brief it was. The singer has learned some painful lessons "now I know" but he wants to do it all over again! Dear Lord, so do most of us.

[@mabelem3618]

great trio. they harmonize so well everyone leaves room for music. The banjo just plays a few notes but perfect sometimes less is more!!!

[@shaunoakford9272]

Three exceptionally talented American musicians - each in their own right - making a great song yet better. Fantastic rendition for a pick-up session guys, I'm in awe. Respect from Australia's Northern Territory..

[@frankfiello7904]

They make a 3 string band really sing. Enjoyed it.

[@shaunoakford9272]

A trio of amazingly talented American gentlemen

[@markhannam7144]

This song takes me home to a place I loved so long ago ,a boat trip around Brownsea island in Poole harbour Dorset.Days of memories happy times, warm summer says fishing off the quay with my late Grandmother. Miss these times so much, bad decision to move North many years ago to the wretched Midlands!

[@peterjones5428]

[@hammersteve8]

Another different, but beautiful version. Adore the violin. Look up the Mark Rasbah session for a another beauty just acoustic guitar and piano.

[@romulosantos7965]

Sempre incrível.

[@tafelridders6880]

2:12 - Oops! :-D Glad to see Greg is still human, after all!

[@DomTheHammerMan]

+Tafelridders what do you mean?

[@tafelridders6880]

He fumbled with the lyrics. Great to see Greg and Steve having a little laugh about it :-)

[@terryc.3390]

Pretty sure whatever it was was the banjo player, not Greg, 'cause Greg kind of gives him an eye at that moment. Guessing the banjo player didn't do something as rehearsed ;)

[@johntoland7198]

Terry C. Yeah! Gregory usually messes around with the lyrics sometimes when he plays live. Like the “laughed and drank and passed in the stable” lol

[@daviddixon5031]

very cool

[@mandyblaxland847]

You have got to come to Australia :) ;)

[@dystructivegirl]
