This is the best version of Angeline the Baker on You tube. The fiddles and Miss Shelley's voice are amazing. Kudos to the producer of the video.

[@randyraeder2333]

The video is delightful, and I've returned to it repeatedly over the years to raise my spirits. But it is simply NOT "the best" rendition of the classic work. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHiUdH9pbcplbdE&start_radio=1&rv=VvZkozpQ-Lw

[@gregh6719]

Just plain good. Many thanks.

[@jakebarnes7266]

Why do I love this video so much. Simply delightful.

[@georgefleming864]

The lady's voice is marvellous, rich and fascinating. The band is her equal.

[@longjohnsilver7986]

Beautiful voice, beautiful band. God bless you

[@georgegarcia1445]

I like this version best.

[@kenLeiboff]

Love it !. You don't often hear anyone sing this nowadays. Actually a very sad song for a happy song.

En dat dan allemaal in Nederland, hoe is het mogelijk. Keigoed ! Gerry Thijssen, Beugen Nederland.

Naprosto perfektní zpěv. Úplně na mně dýchla atmosféra divokého západu. Jen tak dáááállllll !!! Posílám Vám pozdrav z druhé bluegrassové velmoci na světě z České republiky. 🤠🎻🔥🪕🇨🇿

[@johnneumann3789]

Great music. They play like they were born in the mountains of Appalachia.

[@auntpittypattys]

[@replyhere590]

I'd refer you to Dry Branch Fire Squad's version, too.

[@kathrynwebster6307]

This is a slave song about Angeline the Baker being sold to another owner and leaving without chance of saying goodbye. Her sweetheart is missing her. I wonder how it evolved to be sung so happily.

[@marleneruppert1874]

What a Fantastic video. This tune is well worn, but this video and version breathes great life into it!!

[@blauwgrasschelp]

Thanks. It was filmed with a very OLD camera. That's why the lighting is funky now and then.

[@tonyschram1260]

Outstanding, loved it👍✌️

[@SyncoPeer]

Great sound, great playing, and above all; great singing!

[@weswolever7477]

I’d like to have a couple of acres out in the country just so I could have a horse like that

[@bradhunt275]

This is the best Angeline the Baker I have ever heard. Im just a closet picker and wish i had this version tabbed for mandolin. I have liked this singer and the version of Cotton Mill Girls. Probably gettin close to wearing that CD out lol.

[@noci48]

Thanks Brad! Our third cd is released a few weeks ago. The cd is called"Cat's Got The Measles".

[@bradhunt275]

I have spent the last week working up a 5 minute mandolin version of this tune and just finished it, now I am adding the ornaments, hammer ons, pull-offs and double stops. Please tell ur singer I think she is 1st rate for this kind of haunting music. i will look up ur new CD. All the Best.

[@noci48]

Brad, You can listen to the songs and order the cd at: theoldtimestringband.bandcamp.com/album/cats-got-the-measles

[@mikegoldberg5261]

Yeah, I really like the way they did both these songs too.

[@hawthorneguy]

Thanks Leslie. This song was on our first album. We have our fourth cd coming up in februari.

[@tiborcsanyi8981]

Nagyon jó hallgatni, szép népzene.

[@blauwgrasschelp]

Hello Greg. First of all, thanks for watching. As far as the title goes, i tried to harken back to what seems to be the most original title, though it is known by both.

[@russellharvey6652]

Never knew there were lyrics. Cool!

Better than most of the American stringbands I hear. Very sweet! Great vocalists!

[@noci48]

The Oldtime Stringband is from the Netherlands. They have just released the 3rd cd: theoldtimestringband.bandcamp.com/album/cats-got-the-measles

[@gurdyman1]

Thanks for the link. I spoke with one of them on facebook some time back, don't remember who.

[@noci48]

I am the bassplayer

[@gurdyman1]

I checked out the CD trailer. Excellent. Is it available in USA yet?

[@noci48]

Not in the cd shops i think. You can order the cd's at theoldtimestringband.bandcamp.com/album/cats-got-the-measles

[@blauwgrasschelp]

Bakersfield's Central Park? (just kidding). Who knows.

[@Bayoubonton]

amen that .......

[@ScotchIrishFool1]

The tune was written by Stephen Foster. He named it "Angelina Baker". Not "Angeline the Baker". This reminds me of "Cumberland Gap" being called "Tumblin' Gap". There are many who do this.

[@blauwgrasschelp]

Did quite a bit of research on this. From what I could find "the" is in the oldest records.

[@wadenewberry9834]

Is that a auto harp the lady is playing my grandma use to play one when I was a kid 😊

[@shaunkelley2195]

Cool idea, mixing the instrumental bluegrass version with the Stephen Foster vocal

[@blauwgrasschelp]

Thanks. We decided to mix it up instead of getting into fisticuffs.

Fabulous should base themselves in England

[@noci48]

UK is not so far from The Netherlands. We did 3 short UK tours.

[@bluegrassancientlockwood9754]

AtB is basically a tragically sad song, here done brilliantly happily, for which many are grateful, as am I, [Go Shelly!] but we should remember the slave singer's misery that his love was taken from him without warning or explanation. Slavery which in many forms continues to this day. Just saying, think if this had happened to you...................

[@greglr19751]

It's Angelina Baker.

[@gurdyman1]

Angelina Baker is the part that is being sung. Angeline the Baker is the instrumental part. Two different songs made into an interesting medley.

[@nunofurbiz4796]

Audio and music are great. Video, though was pretty bad - not content, but just way too dark. Many scenes are impossible to see both color and B&W. But thanks for the music!

[@jlinkels]

The BW scenes look like recorded in the Netherlands. Bicycles, clogs... Just the windmills and tulips lack.

[@jlinkels]

The sound is totally indiscernible from folk music played by Americans, so I would say you're doing well.

[@auntpittypattys]

where is this bands home base at what country?

[@honkytonkmen7236]

Netherlands

[@danielperry8221]

Of course- a Stephen Foster song..

[@allencooke6794]

That is an interesting mix of neither song. Angelina Baker was written by Stephen Foster and those are the lyrics but not the melody. Angeline the Baker is an old time version, which they are playing only the B part. An then there were those picks on the banjoists fingers...... hmmmmm. Identity crises but great music.

[@John-wr6yo]

I guess this song is anglo american in origin.
