Willy's voice is absolutely one of my favorites.

[@Gar-64-Dragon]

I know about all these troubadours but bless youtube's twisted soul for showing me this.

[@jamesmanriquez3493]

I love how much Gillian and Dave are enjoying Willies singing

[@janste90]

I was just thinking the same thing😃😃. When you are the only one with real talent you can only expect tho use kind of looks🤨

[@gregorysullivan7175]

isn't that nice.

[@janste90]

@@gregorysullivan7175 apologies, having listened to a few more tracks, they are ok better a few years ago😃

[@daddyfuse50]

They knew willie was killing it!

[@eaglehawktigerbear_949]

Damn he has the perfect voice for country/folk

[@Kasino80]

Have you heard his version of Gallows Pole?

[@shawnwilkes9050]

I mean 😊

[@daddyfuse50]

The guy is an absolute megastar....with near zero following. It's baffling.

[@barrykrakovsky756]

Beautiful. Thank you.

[@rinner3]

I love his unique voice

[@RemingtonRidersMusic]

This is an awesome performance. I just discovered Willie Watson, and I think I'm in love. 😊

[@ginfluckyk9347]

THANK YOU FOR THIS ! what a pleasant moment.. good ambiance. Magnifique 👏 song. Clear and beautiful CAPELLA. 😮❤

[@Pandameter13]

I usually play this with Creedence's verses in their order, but in willie's slow-then-pick-it-up style. Love folk music, so modular

[@DreadMew]

this is the best version of this song, took a while to find

[@donbutler6100]

THAT is just pretty AWESOME !!!

[@philipcrawford777]

This does it for me, the final definitive version of this. I love this group.

[@daddyfuse50]

It's Willie man, the guy is just special

[@danielberry9610]

Frankly, I can't think of many better combinations of living artists that could grace a stage.

[@robertosignorotti1121]

Country blues music at its best!

[@Merrygreenleaf]

Man....I can see why Willie left OCMS which left a big hole in that band but he doesn't need anyone else to sing with, his voice is so powerful and it soars! He's like Hank Williams, with some Woody Guthrie thrown in, a touch of Townes Van Zandt and a whole lotta Appalachia Holler soul for good measure! What a talent....keep on keepin' on Willie!!

[@mastathf]

I'd compare his voice to del mccoury

[@jude999]

Jim Croce

[@LazyIRanch]

@@mastathf that's a good observation! I hear it now. This is as good as it gets!

[@susantjfl3147]

Appalachian Holler, yeah was trying to think of that description.

[@daddyfuse50]

The man should be a megastar. Maybe in a different life.

[@agassizbeekeeper]

Great song! My Mom turned me on to folk before I knew what it was with songs like Cowboy Jack, Hobo Bill, Red River Valley. She use to tell about this little Filipino cowboy who use to come in with the freight every year to work on my Grandpa's threshing rig in the Red River Valley of the North. He sang and played guitar.

[@danecobain]

Another one for my favourite videos playlist

[@bobfreengel]

[@justinhuiet3383]

Robert Engel, I don't know who you are sir, but thank you thank you so so so much for making all of the videos of these amazing artists in such high quality available to the world. That video with Welch and Rawlings and Punch Brothers? Literally my two favorite groups together. My mind is blown and my heart so so grateful. Really, thank you.

[@bobfreengel]

Thank you for you nice words!

[@MrBabycool12]

Good performance. Though Leadbelly wrote that song and I don't see his name nowhere. I guess it's worth mentionning

[@mitoguitarman]

Great

[@carguy6668]

[@jaym6314]

Only 402 likes out of nearly 90,000 views? something is seriously wrong with people.

[@joea.9969]

Most people are dumb. But...be glad were not those dumb people:)

[@justinhuiet3383]

Jay M I was thinking the same thing

[@jeffj318]

Some people view but don't feel like liking. That way the video is not saved.

[@DerekHartley]

I can watch it 10 times but only ever like it once.

Great song, really good artist. I want to give credit to the origins of this song. Look up Lead Belly.

Leadbelly 's song

[@josephlivingston2ndcoming]

[@NotoTruth]

+Debbie Novak That was my question.

[@Danoh1639]

[@frankmunich1881]
