Pokey LaFarge - Josephine

[@gerrygilmour6493]

One of the nicest tracks I have heard in 63 years.

[@johnpowers2921]

I think if the records could be found, Pokey was born in Illinois 137 years ago

[@cowgirlndn]

Oh I LOVE this song.....simple, pure and wonderfully unique!! What a talented young man...I could listen to him all night....Love his style of singing and guitar pickin'....POKEY YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!!!

[@dscrd1]

Pokey LaFarge - old time legends from a new time

[@MsPin0]

I saw them last week in Paradiso-Amsterdam. He did this song too. It was soo beautifull. It was the first time i saw them live and it was one of the best live bands i've ever seen, and i've seen a lot.

[@BeeLZBeeb]

They seem like they’d be so fun and interactive

[@spittyfire3]

Pokey is great! Keeps things true to the roots. Ragtime, blues. Love it.

[@mhattenbach47]

He is a reincarnate. He has the face, the sound, and everything from the 20's.

[@bellsauce]

The 2020s.

[@joem7572]

@@bellsauce Let him usher in the roaring 20's!

[@BartTheBardOfficial]

This song can really calm a stirring mind. Great stuff.

[@zen8robi]

Simply natural ! in contrast to all artificial high tech modern music fakers, wonderful !

[@imannonymous7707]

Tru dat...spoken like a true music aficionado... posers be damned . Lol

[@batfink777]

So old school I can smell the saw dust on the barn dance floor.

[@BrunoEG-ju3jp]

Pomade and shavie crame also

[@rhombus0ne]

I have no idea, but it is SUCH a sweet song thinking about a man singing it to his baby girl!

[@pfroge]

This is a very special song...that I think has gotten lost in the playlist behind all the faster tempo stuff. This is in my top three favorite songs by Pokey LaFarge.

[@fqhousehouse723]

[@keithamyx1215]

Incredible. I think is the right word, for his ability to send me to another place.

[@hrukjan4225]

At least once a day at this point. With a nice tea or coffee. This here is an avenue to temporary peace.

[@Narrator_JasonForbis]

I love seeing the immaculate fingerwork on the frets in this video.

Pokey is an Absolute American Treasure.

[@S0UL0NE]

I love his expression. This is true.

[@jrbres00]

Beautiful

[@medsp11]

An incredible, lyrical sound master.

[@JamminWithKapu]

I second that, kanikapila wit Pokey. He can prob appreciate the old school island jams

[@BoiledOctopus]

Talent.

[@Vikingdescendent]

Great song! Very Dylanesque.

[@sleepyeyeguy]

The passion and tension in his voice reminds me of the late, great Jeff Buckley.

[@dazzlingdavedainty]

only come across these tonight slick!

[@Abuelitahere]

Please if you can see him in concert. Please do. He is amazing in person.

[@beastshawnee4987]

Just Great talent

[@sleepyeyeguy]

Dude, fantastic! Keep it up!

[@sheila7806]

Love this guy.

[@CEwebNL]

So talented and real!

[@fairybits]

Listen to Carolyn Hatch Payne. She is a great singer as well. Her song is called HOOKERS NIGHT OUT. Eehehe. A fishing song.

[@liamdixon8163]

And just when most people thought Pokey was a rhythm guitarist 💙💙💙

[@g1stylempdesign929]

OL Timey all the Time.

[@53jed]

Smacks of John Hurt.

[@gourmandespagnol]

¡Grande Pokey!

[@MallikaMenon]

Just stunning

[@Carolina.R.]

Wowww 👏🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@RemoteControlband]

That background is so typically Dutch!

[@dave474c]

This guy is good.

[@Peter824100]

Very reminiscent of Jesse Fuller's "San Francisco Bay Blues" - particularly Jack Elliot's Version here on youtube

[@heathersefcheck6961]

My favorite new artist!

[@LC-bp4my]

Maravilloso

[@garylowery6216]

I hope he makes more of these .

[@babebamsu]

Perfect Pokey.

[@AndrewEllisAndymanout]

Certainly a rare talent.

[@joedljoedl]

Has Pokey LaFarge got any more solo tunes ? Heard one when he was live and he did a whisteling solo and it was incredible

[@bigcase4449]

I heard him do that on when did you leave heaven and it was so nice lol

[@Poeders]

Yep he did that at a gig in Nijmegen, loved it!!

[@steventhefunky]

amazing. just amazing. I've probably contributed over 400 views.

[@FunkSoulBubby]

+Steven Wright I am right behind you.

[@caliuet]

😊

[@williamschuhmacher3468]

a man is leaving to a treatment center. "goin' to Carolina to rest my bones. He's been home and it didn't work. Whisky.....and apples and oranges ar noon. He realy wants it to work. (Lay me down.....) And I really like the guitar, so simple and so great.

[@elblusilla]

Fantassstiiiccc!11

[@artpaulschlosser]

It's sounds like the music to Your Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

[@Targetteer1]

Just so damn nice seriously beautiful song that I love so much.Can someone tell me the story behind this song?Is it a "true song"as Mr Monroe would say?Who is Josephine?,a wife?,a baby girl?

[@evsynator]

WOW .......................

[@dutchcowboy3665]

1 september is hij weer in Maassilo Rotterdam ik kan niet wachten 😛

[@michaelelliott1212]

The Frozen Man thawed out. And here he is! Preserved from the days before the great freeze (music was lost in the vortex of auto-tune, blurred genre lines, and lesser beings in the music world). With Pokey we have a rare creature. Genuinely talented!

[@monkeynuts1806]

For a moment I thought I was listening to Ralph McTell

[@missalyssa99]

LOVE IT :)

[@fredcorbin1]

woow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Kylerjguitar]

So good

[@LOUISFIELDS1]

Sympa!

[@lucioLulo]

me encanta esa canción

[@jamesmcgraw724]

Not the same without that great band .. long time fan here but disappointed as a single performance. It all blended so nicely with his style of singing with his band

[@mikeymernhart4328]

is that Robbin Williams sitting in the background?

[@dasmageil]

best part 0:00 - 3:05

[@Brutuz62]

Recorded in the Netherlands yeah

[@rafaelmangrone721]

❤️

[@UncleWally3]

This is what makes America great - as it was, and could be. Not fuckin' walls . . .

[@franckaltero3620]

Perfect song… but the compression of KZbin break the thing…

[@alessiog8458]

He has very bluegrass voice!

[@carlscamino5844]

Where was this recorded?

[@patsielee7760]

If only I was Joshine.

[@plasticpaper757]

It's good to be a josie..

[@neckermannpasha]

Степь, да степь кругом.

[@sassygranny8450]

Does Pokey have more songs like this?

[@madogblue]

Ghislaine Joymar All sorts, start surfing you tube and enjoy!

[@sassygranny8450]

madogblue​ Goodbye Barcelona and get lost are great ☺

[@madogblue]

Ghislaine Joymar Goodby Barcelona was great thanks!

[@MrLknewell]

You would probably also really like My Kentucky May. One of my favorites by Pokey. He has 4 or 5 albums though, loads of great tunes.

[@BeeLZBeeb]

Get lost and I forget the Name of the other one I found so far, something about why did you leave heaven

[@chavmanrush7109]

They don’t pick like that anymore

[@MeYeahh]

If anyone's feeling that way inclined, I've got a more mellow cover of this on my channel :) check it out!

[@carlgraham2941]

I bet mark knophler could pick and sing like pogey ....

[@jay-rodrish2188]

This sounds an awful lot like don't think twice by bob Dylan

[@doodlkatz]

a lot less bitter than bob pokey seems like a much nicer guy .. I assume that Dylan is somewhat of an ass

[@seacruse]

Wow...very tasty.
