I don’t think I’ll ever forget the first time hearing Gillian Welch and David Rawlings…The most perfect music to help me through a dark time in my life . Thank you both for the comfort while i needed it most.
My first time was on the Hell Among The Yearlings tour. I had gone on a recommendation (and because of a fondness for the venue) not ever hearing them before. Can you imagine my (pleasant) surprise?
This is proper music - pure class. Gillians vocals and Davids guitar are stunningly beautiful. They are in a different league to the shit you get in the pop charts. Pardon my French - excusez-moi.
I'm a rocker, and I could always listen to them for hours and hours. They are so very very very good. The songs, the playing, the singing, the presentation. Time has only made them better. It's music at its best.
@@cool............... it’s prob their Mics. They tour with piles of 57s and 58’s. Cause they said they are all a bit different so they roll through em till they find the ones for that room.
I play guitar. At least I thought I did, until I saw and heard this man play. He aint frum earth, the man understands the instrument on a cosmic level. Christ, I wish I was born with that feel and touch. I am an old man, and knowing that I will never achieve what this guy does is kinda gallin...but, what the hell. At least I can listen to the man who owns the guitar!
I don't play -- and at 74, I never will. David Rawlings makes me feel as if I've wasted my life not learning. But as you said, I'd never reach his magic touch. But love love to listen to it. gosh, never heard the like before. Where have I been?
He comes real close to chokin that olle’ arch top out, but decided to spare its life @ the last sweet second. I’m not sure if I’ve ever heard two guitars making love before but here I am . That’s one kinky dude there 😎🤙🏼😅🤣
@@carolynwest1131 Fuck that, give it ago, whats stopping you. I started making making music during Covid in my 40s. Now I'm never going to set the world alight but who cares I enjoy it
This song speaks to me, so beautiful and tinged with weary regret. The talent just shines from these two like a beacon. This is as good as music ever gets.
From the very first time we heard them which was almost 20 years ago now, there hasn't been a week that we've not played their songs. We loved seeing them Live. They never disappoint. Top talents!
I am just starting to learn to play their stuff. I'm a 5 finger picker and it takes time, @ "73 and a third/rpm, years of age. Sweet harmony with a growling voice works well here too.
Every time I revisit the best live performance videos I always find myself here. There are live performances as good as this, but I'm not sure there are live performances better than this.
One of the most beautiful songs written in the last 100 years. Every time it comes up in my headphones I have to stop and listen to it several times in a row.
Of all the artists I've listened to over the past forty years, these two have turned out some of the most spellbinding tunes. And they've done it more than a few times. Their work is, IMHO, nestled perfectly within the Americana they so obviously have studied and love. Dave's dissonant jags remind me of NY on electric and Willie's playing when he goes off the rails.
Tears streamed down my face when I finally got to see/hear they play this live last year here in Lexington, Ky. This guitar solo is as good as guitar gets. Rawlings is transcendent live.
So hauntingly beautiful, it’s like thousands of years of human collective consciousness went into this song because the perfect dissonances create such an emotional reaction that the words are superfluous, ultimately. One hears the chords and immediately understands that the song is about suffering and not wanting to anymore, ever again.
That was nicely written. Lyrically, I think some of the words harken to both great moments and some of their worst, like being called a fake or an imitator just because she chose to play music she was not raised around. I suspect that was painful for her for a while, but she has continued doing what she loves and cares for and millions have enjoyed it. I think she's the bee's knees and David Rawlings is too.
Probably my favourite version of this song. I was very fortunate to be able to see them twice, once in 2010 as Dave Rawlings Machine and once a year later, just the two of them.
I was drawn to Gillian Welch (and Dave Rawlings who came along too) by comments made by Sarah Jarosz name-checking her on a Transatlantic Sessions gig. Thanks, Sarah for your great music, and for introducing me to these two.
I gave up seeing George Thorogood at Jazzfest back in 2007 so that I could listen to Gillian and David perform. It was one of my best decisions ever but my brother and friends didn't see it that way. haha
Possibly their best TH-cam performance - the venue and the closeness and attentiveness of the audience seems to have had a remarkable impact on the intensity of this amazing song's performance. Dave's solo is a mind blower and Gillian's singing and zen-like rhythm playing is absolutely breathtaking.
"Zen-like". Nice. It shows that perfection is better attained by simplicity than complexity, not to mention the 'beefy' Gibson sound completing the sonic spectrum with David's Epiphone.
I agree. I have seen these guys live 4-5 times and watched dozens of their videos on TH-cam and I think this BBC 4 production is them at their best as a duo. They seem to have taken it seriously, the lighting is great and of course - it's BBC - the recording and the sound are perfect. Their performance of Jacob Meyer at this show is intense and almost breathtaking.
I discovered them many years ago- I listened to them as I was running the road for my family and always loved the unique style that they were giving to us that we had never quite heard before- love Gillian and David - hope they continue to rock on for a long time - Ran many miles listening to “ I Dream A Highway Back to You “ Superb Song ‼️
the most impressive part of this phenomenal performance is Dave's originality on each solo between verses and how he builds them dynamically. Each one is unique, clever, and spectacularly expressive. So very, very hard to pull off. True mastery of the instrument.
I loved the music immediately, but it took a few more listens to truly understand. This is the most beautiful song I've heard. Edit: Gillian has true feeling, and David is a true Nortmittmielian... there aren't many left around here, but they're here. And, they love great music.
Timeless, classic, and strangely unique...I can’t think of anything that sounds quite like this. Like she’s singing about my own history and then the amazing solos that give you time to really absorb the lyrics.
David Rawlings, nobody can hit all those notes that aren’t supposed to work or be there. I always hang on every note he plays, because each has such feeling.
Just superb. I'm so glad I lived during this time of so much good music by people who have deep respect and affinity for this kind of engagement with the past and present.
2007, I've watched this entire session hundreds of times by now, and I still have no idea how they do this live.... It's just brilliant, I'm so in awe of Rawling's guitar playing. He's doing such complex stuff, and only flubs one or two notes in the whole piece. Just amazing.
I think I've watched every uploaded video of this arrangement and this one is the best. Rawlins is perfect throughout, stunning at the finale and Welch is at her very best all the way through.What a duo! What a piece! What a treat it must be to have seen this live. Blessed are all of you have been there to absorb it!!!!
Darling, remember When you come to me I'm the pretender And not what I'm supposed to be But who could know if I'm a traitor Time's the revelator They caught the katy And left me a mule to ride The fortune lady Came along, she walked beside But every word seemed to date her Time's the revelator The revelator Up in the morning Up and on the ride I drive into Corning And all the spindles whine And every day is getting straighter Time's the revelator The revelator Leaving the valley And fucking out of sight I'll go back to Cali Where I can sleep out every night And watch the waves and move the fader Time's the revelator The revelator Queen of the fakes and imitators Time's the revelator
Amazing. This is dated BBC in 2007, and I've only recently discovered Gillian and this song. Heard an interview on Double J where she describes the joy of realising she could actually write songs. A gifted lady.
These two are amazing to watch live - they start to really get into what they’re doing about midway through their concerts and that’s when they magic is made. Each performance feels unique - they add little twists and flourishes to the melodies.
I literally heard of these two an hour ago following a link to Ryan Adams album Gold, on which Gillian co-wrote the excellent Enemy Fire. Man, do I have some catching up to do! Absolutely breathtaking, the songs I've heard so far.
Rawlings is a master at using dissonance. Studying at the Berklee School of Music is a good reason for his brilliance. Listen to his guitar lines. Nobody plays like he. Positively original style. Hard to be original. But the dissonance is incredible.
His dissonance gets a lot of comments, but more amazing to me is the consistently inventive melodic lines. I think his is even better displayed on, say, Scarlet Town and Tennessee.
@@davidlowney634 I guess you're on the same wave length as Spock - he would always reply to Captain Kirk, "That's illogical" about any 'sayings' he couldn't understand. Here's the skinny - Words are turned on their heads by the young, and end up with the opposite meaning. Or, sometimes it's by locale. That's what happened to the word "sick." The word "wicked" means evil, but here in the greater Boston area, it's means real good or real cool...,as in "That clam chowdah was wicked good." I'm old too, so I won't say - OK Boomer................OK Boomer?
Dave looked sooooo different back then!!! I'll never forget the first time I saw him play - was at the Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill, NC and my jaw dropped and stayed dropped while I watched him shred that ole geeeeetarrrrr!!! Love these guys!!!
The St LUke's show is a gem. BBC....did PRO aud/vid and Revelator is.......EPIC. Gilly lays down a perfect foundation so Dave can wrestle sounds out of that old Epiphone that Guitars usualy keep secret. Really..SPECIAL stuff
No matter how many times I find myself back with it again, this song never gets old or feels stale. And this is, by far, one of the best performances I have had the privilege to hear.
I understood the "fader" line right away, but it just now occurred to me that "watch the waves" can refer to soundwaves as well as ocean waves. Wow! Thanks for quoting this line!
Dave's solo in this performance is full of amazing improvised bits, like the looping thing on 2:12, or an arpeggio on 3:59. My favorite version of the tune...
I'm so glad the polite British crowd doesn't feel the need to yell "WOOO!" after (or during) every solo like they do here in the States. Rawlings' harmony is so close to Gillian, it's a mystery how he does it. It doesn't follow any conventional norms of harmony. Brilliant. I saw them live, and they were just this good.
Rawlings incorporates a lot of harmonics that are seldomly used in popular music, for instance the 9th (?) on the opening notes of this song. I can see why it would be perceived as "unconventional".
My buddy Bill turned me on to Gillian Welch and I'm very thankful! We went with some friends to Higher Ground, a club in Winooski, VT and they were amazing. "Fucking out of sight".

Love this comment - time is and will ever be the true revelator, but I agree with you ❤
I see what you did there !
Just so you know - it doesn't get a whole lot better than this.
You don't find David's guitar solo of over two minutes from 5:21 to 7:34 excessive (I mean in length, not in nature)?
Well...time; the revelator. @@benmeltzer
I could hear Rawlings guitar jams all night long@@benmeltzer

...My Sweet Lord. OOooo my Lord.
David Rawlings is a guitar god, and god bless the great Gillian Welch, maybe the most underrated duo on earth today, wonderful....
Not underrated by anybody who knows their music!
Dave seems to gracefully get himself out of any bottomless pit musical rabbit hole he's run down with that old Ephiphone.😊
Underrated or not dude’s brilliant
I doubt they are underrated. They aren't popstars and I bet they are happy with the careers they have had.
Let’s give a hand to the sound engineer too. Excellent sound
Right 👋❤️
yeah man. BBC using simple but classic SM57s. Best mic ever.
@@cool............... cannot agree more
You noticed that too? It stood out from the intro.
@@cool............... it’s prob their Mics. They tour with piles of 57s and 58’s. Cause they said they are all a bit different so they roll through em till they find the ones for that room.
Back again for a dose of this musical medicine. Just incredible.

This gets me every time. It's amazing. Musical genius. ❤
Her songs are haunting and beautiful. Gillian is a brilliant songwriter!
I am sure David has a ton to do with that too. His guitar play is wizardry.
Her voice is unique! Great stuff!
these songs are nearly all co-writes.
And that, folks, is why dynamics matter.

Simply sublime. Must be in the top ten ever-recorded live performances
Are there still beautiful things? Absolutely.
Such a beautiful, soulful performance

Came along, she walked beside
But every word seemed to date her
Time's the revelator
The revelator
Up in the morning
Up and on the ride
I drive into Corning
And all the spindles whine
And every day is getting straighter
Time's the revelator
The revelator
Leaving the valley
And fucking out of sight
I'll go back to Cali
Where I can sleep out every night
And watch the waves and move the fader
Time's the revelator
The revelator
Queen of the fakes and imitators
Time's the revelator

I'm sorry but I can't quit listening to this and how did I miss this great music for so long
Chris thile brought me here - I am new to this genre but this particular song sounds like one of the best of its kind.
What a great performance. Great combination
beautiful...no wonder this song is on my fav list...
2022 still back..
Classic one ...and her voice ..
Never remake this Gem..
Just cherish
These two are amazing to watch live - they start to really get into what they’re doing about midway through their concerts and that’s when they magic is made. Each performance feels unique - they add little twists and flourishes to the melodies.
I Love this video an this song so much it almost brings tears to my eyes.I wouldn’t admit it if it did.

This is truly fantastic - spine-tingling stuff.
Rawlings is a master at using dissonance. Studying at the Berklee School of Music is a good reason for his brilliance. Listen to his guitar lines. Nobody plays like he. Positively original style. Hard to be original. But the dissonance is incredible.
His dissonance gets a lot of comments, but more amazing to me is the consistently inventive melodic lines. I think his is even better displayed on, say, Scarlet Town and Tennessee.
its also, as my teacher told me, the spaces between the notes. they are MORE important than the notes themselves.
@@scrapheapofshame Very true...
I've invented a new term. I call it "aharmonic" (long A). It's different than true dissonance, and it describes what David does perfectly.
well, I mean this a little bit hyperbolic, he is a good guitarist, but what he does here is educated doodling, it cost him two weeks to figure out.
haunting....stunning.... beautiful....
These two are just sick. This stuff is for real whatever genre of music you like.
So sick they make me puke and get sick again
What the fuck does ''sick" mean?

What a wonderful song so well presented David you have a gift and a heart it shows in your playing Thank you from Nova Scotia Canada
Who built this man's guitar? Body is shaped like a cello and the sound blends with that instrument. This is beauty!
I found it: 1935 Epiphone Olympic
And thanks to his talent the price of them has doubled.
The St LUke's show is a gem. BBC....did PRO aud/vid and Revelator is.......EPIC. Gilly lays down a perfect foundation so Dave can wrestle sounds out of that old Epiphone that Guitars usualy keep secret. Really..SPECIAL stuff
He seems to strangle the beauty from it!
Ron Wood; AGREE
Unbelievable acoustic guitar solo, really transcendent.
No matter how many times I find myself back with it again, this song never gets old or feels stale.
And this is, by far, one of the best performances I have had the privilege to hear.
And here I am again, a year later. And the words that came to mind this afternoon were: "They never fail to amaze."
screamingly brilliant
“Watch the waves and move the fader.” Best line ever for a sound tech.

This is sublime saw that concert on bbc gobsmacked
A breathtaking song and performance. These two are the best.

Timeless Perfection
I love it when Mr. Rawlings goes off the deep end :)
The title track of their best album played in their prime, wow!
Just gives me goosebumps watching and listening to this. Yay, they are touring here in Feb 2016. Thank you for the video.
o m g this burns my soul as much now as the first time I heard it
Absolutely sublime.
Outstanding.
stunning. trance-inducing. music so sweet, sublime and transporting...
Rips out my heart every time
I'm so glad the polite British crowd doesn't feel the need to yell "WOOO!" after (or during) every solo like they do here in the States. Rawlings' harmony is so close to Gillian, it's a mystery how he does it. It doesn't follow any conventional norms of harmony. Brilliant. I saw them live, and they were just this good.
I agree no whoooos are better.
"It doesn't follow any conventional norms of harmony." What? It so does. XD
I hate the macho, growling YE--UHH!!s of some US audiences. The US is cool, in my books, but I'm not a fan of the YE-UHH!!
Rawlings incorporates a lot of harmonics that are seldomly used in popular music, for instance the 9th (?) on the opening notes of this song. I can see why it would be perceived as "unconventional".
Saw them live around this time in Durham, NC and the audience was just as respectful. You could hear a pin drop.
My buddy Bill turned me on to Gillian Welch and I'm very thankful! We went with some friends to Higher Ground, a club in Winooski, VT and they were amazing. "Fucking out of sight".
My god this is brilliant
his voice complements hers just about perfectly. I don't know much about music, but I know what I like. this is incredible.
