[@danielgeary5215]

Every one of these players is a master. And also the key to masterful country playing is playing less notes, but playing more soul/feel. This is one special performance.

[@timothydaniels504]

I’m a luke warm country music fan but Vince Gill is on my desert island list. Actually, all of these guys are. Maybe I’m more of a country fan than I thought.

[@anglodutch8321]

Absolutely excellent vocal performance by Vince. Faultless. Inspiring. Matched by the great steel guitar. World class.

[@robertnewman4072]

Vince Gill,one of the greats.

[@marieasparling6717]

Vince is an awesome singer, songwriter & entertainer. He is one of very few singers, that can sing many different styles: Country, Bluegrass, Gospel, etc.... He has always been one of my favorite singers, & anyone who knows his music & voice like I do, would know that he has, still can & always will be able to take any singers song & remake it & sing it, Vince Gill style. He sings everyones songs as though they were his very own. Thank you Vince, for a lifetime of awesome music. A lifelong fan always. :)

[@Guitargate]

This is as good as it gets. Don’t forget it.

[@johnsee7269]

My thoughts (below) exactly; lol!

[@johnsee7269]

That steel guitar! Perfection! Beautiful!

[@KB6YAF]

Paul Franklin's pedal steel and Vince's vocals......a heavenly match

[@mightybritania9544]

Vince will surely have the lead in the Heavenly choir

[@thatgirl626]

[@drumlover1687]

Paul Franklin is simply outstanding!

[@drumlover1687]

Vince Gill is as that old saying goes is "money in the bank". If it gets better than Vince I'd love to hear it.

[@SweetStreet28]

Vince Gill is incredible, nobody else can touch his sound

[@22markski22]

Tim Street So disheartening, but very true haha

[@dhldt1021]

Agree, Vince Gill is dope. Cannot touch that voice.

[@herdingcats3850]

Paul Franklin really puts the feeling in this video. All well done. George would be proud.

[@FreidaSmith-y5o]

Vince is the very best Country musiciam out there and his beautiful body of work as a songwriter singer. and guitar playing is superb and he makes this world better. love him❤❤❤❤

[@wiseonelol25]

what a treat it must be to watch a talent like Vince Gill in an intimate setting like that!

[@roysass1387]

I''ve seen Vince a few times and will see him in the future whenever I can. He puts on a helluva great concert. I can't decide if his singing is better than his guitar playing, both are world class, He's a fine story teller as well.

[@lordhoho1]

He's the complete package that's why Dire Straits and the Eagles wanted him

[@johnhooper5073]

Thanks so much for the folks who post videos like this! There are a lot of us out here who would never get to see or hear such incredible music performed by the best musicians on the planet 'cause we live too far away. Please keep it up. The Time Jumpers are an amazing group, and there are no adequate words to describe how great a musician/singer Vince is.

[@shelleyking8450]

Thank you, Time Jumpers and Vince, for picking the blues song.

[@thorvalderiksen1814]

A love Vince and The Time Jumpers..I saw Vince once in Nashville i 2015..I am an Aussie. I wasn't sure what Vince looked like. I saw this bloke in shorts and flip flops a tee shirt and unshaven setting up .I walked up to him and said "g/day mate, what is this Vince Gill like" , he smiled and said "I reckon he is ok" I honestly did not know it was him. I was overcome with embarrassment when he sat down and was joined by he rest of the band and started to play. What a show and when he saw me he gave me a big wink and a smile .Thank you Vince..

[@suebeattie5101]

Hilarious! Hes great inne?

[@gloriabayley6671]

There is no music to beat country and western. ❤❤❤

[@lwhowell4387]

This must be what Heaven sounds like.

[@susanford4606]

George Jones recorded this song, but how many of you know that James Taylor wrote it? Vince Gill's voice is perfect for this song and the steel guitar is sad and beautiful at the same time! Keep singing Vince and may George rest in peace.

[@gillygil8747]

Susan Ford: When George Jones heard what James Taylor had written and performed, what did George say?

[@michaelhenderson5098]

@@gillygil8747 George said nobody will buy that record because it is too damn sad!

[@bigbadjohn8099]

James Taylor thinks George Jones hung the moon- I saw him in concert some years back and he talked at length about the ol' Possum. I am in complete agreement with Mr. Taylor, Jones was an amazing talent. Miss the man immensely.

[@briankelly5432]

Susan Ford Wow. James Taylor ! What a blast. In reference. To Townes van zandt . Great great song Very chill

[@michaelelliott1212]

I love Vince but doesn't do this song any justice.

[@dm7b5]

Paul Franklin is the reason someone invented the pedal steel.

[@classicalmusic7430]

Superb performance by every member. What talents on one stage! I love Vince's humor no matter where it is, there is always laughter.

[@Golfer964]

Best version of this song ever, I never get tired of listening to it !

Vinces wife does a good job on bRtenders blues also

[@colbyjack7074]

Paul Franklin. A great steel player. A greater man.

[@colbyjack7074]

Followed by Mr. Tasteful Andy Reiss.

[@rickcypher4240]

This song always brings a tear no matter how many times I hear it....When George sang it, Vince, or James Taylor....beautiful

[@MrMusicguyma]

Man, Vince is a seriously country singer. Time Jumpers are the best country band I've ever heard, or heard of. While any of these guys can tear it up at will, restraint is the order of the day. In fact, IMHO the main difference between deep country and deep blues is restraint versus release.

[@ciarraibuzz]

Really? How was Pluto? Would you recommend it?

[@drumlover1687]

From the greatJames Taylor to the late great King of country Mr. George Jones and now the great Vince Gill. Now that's money in the bank!

[@BettyHanson-i6p]

If there was ever a doubt of who's going to fill their shoes this is the man that can the job done❤

[@BettyHanson-i6p]

Can get the job done

[@dalejefferies4536]

The whole band is exceptional but Steel guitar solo droped me to my knees!

[@olddvr]

I had the pleasure of meeting Vince in Birmingham, AL. Amy was promoting and autographing new cds at a Christian Bookstore and I was hired as security. Vince came in with Amy, and the funny thing was, I don’t think any of the contemporary Christian fans of Amy’s music even knew who he was! So after we got Amy set up at her table, I eased over back where Vince was and introduced myself. Vince was a super nice guy and I asked him if not being recognized bothered him. And he said “Well you did, didn’t you?” Then he laughed and he said no, this was Amy’s spotlight and he was just here to watch her enjoying herself. Then he thanked me for my service in law enforcement, and directed his attention back to his lovely wife. What a super nice and classy guy!

[@RickaramaTrama-lc1ys]

Vince is a living legend and no one does it quite like him~!!

[@drumlover1687]

There's musicians that that want to play country music,and then there's The time jumpers. There is no substitute for the real deal.

[@Mags150]

Vince is one of a kind that comes along ever so often and his voice is truly unique and I can listen to him all day because he is true country. Much respect!! Vietnam vet 70/71. I salute you!!

[@callunah1664]

Vince is soooo incredible!!!

[@donnawilhite2714]

Best tenor voice out there and not too bad on the eyes!

[@lukezorich6444]

Such a blessing to live in Nashville and get to hear these types of bands everyday of the week. For those that don’t know the time jumpers play every MONDAY night. I’ve been lucky enough to hear Vince sing this song on a couple occasions. One of my favorite voices and versions

[@wadesouza6402]

I wish I had known that when I was in Nashville for a week in September. Of course, Vince might be on the road with the Eagles. He is a long time favorite of mine and I think he is woefully underrated as a great musician. I have heard him play so many styles, all really well and his voice is outstanding.

[@bettycatalanello9989]

What a wonderful band and No one , No one has a honey silk voice like Vince, Love the guy!,

[@ElizabethHughes-so5rz]

VINCE GILL AND PAUL FRANKLIN, ABSOLUTELY CLASSIC TOGETHER. VINCE HAS SUCH AN AMAZING UNIQUE STYLE VOICE THAT NO ONE SHALL EVER BE ABLE TO COMPETE AGAINST HIM NOT IN OUR ERA ANYHOW. ELIZABETH IN SCOTLAND ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I HAVE BEEN A FAN OF VINCE FOR OVER 40YEARS ,AND A FEW MORE. EXCELLENT ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Nigel-ie6gy]

200% emotion in every bend

[@FredVannini]

That's a fine guitar right there... Good call Vince!

[@joshcbakerr]

his voice is gold! RIP George Jones!

[@robertlee8042]

He’s a very good studied unsurprising guitarist but he’s a top rate total package when you consider his singing, personality, looks and song-writing. Not one whose collected album would be the one you’d take to an island if you were only allowed one, but worth listening to. I also loved the video of him interacting with Chet Atkins on a morning TV show. It was real and sweet. And he played very well with Chet. They each took it easy on the other. No ego. All notes pretty much in the melody but effortlessly played. Vince Gill is a very talented genuinely very nice person.

[@webnuts4u2]

I saw him do this in Richardson, Tx on Thursday night with the Time Jumpers. No one (not even George or JT) does it as well as Vince. What a fantastic band this is.

[@user-ox7lx6yi7i]

You guys are the reason for my love of music. Great Job too each and every one of you.

[@sven-goranlindmark1583]

This song is written by James Taylor and was on his album 'JT' 1977. The song is covered by many artists and one is George Jones.

[@Jeliar]

So glad to see a person like him can play guitar and sing a nice song. Not an easy work to be done but still can do the best. Well done. I always love the music and all the songs that always be sharing with me. Thank you so much and God blessed. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Love Vince Gill but don't think this is his best version. Actually I think his wife, Amy Grant, has a better version!

[@dougschuch4328]

Ummmm, Buddysimo.... James Taylor never did a "cover" of this song. He wrote it! Everyone else is doing a cover of it. As for this version (same as the last one I commented on by Vince - I wish he would get the words right! Haha! But gotta love the Time Jumpers!

If you're gonna be in Nashville on a Monday night, check the schedule at 3rd and Lindsey. The Time Jumpers play on Monday nights and it only costs $25 to see this incredible band. Intimate room with very few bad seats. Pretty good burger too.
