dude the HARP ABSOLUTELY SENT SHIVERS DOWN MY BODY
To Carson’s dad - I’ve been following Carson for about a year now. I’ve heard just about all of his TH-cam recordings. It’s not just his mellow voice. He’s a good storyteller. He knows how to make you feel the song. I’m 62 and I notice a lot of the comments for Carson and Josh are from people in my age group, but lots of younger people too. Good music appeals to everyone. I’m sure your proud. I’ve heard Skylar too, and love his voice as well!
you have a lot of catching up to do with all their videos from years past, a very nice road to travel. They are down to earth, amazing, talented, Artists.
just kids. 75 here
Beautiful 🥰
What a lovely comment.
@@dufus2273 One behind you...
That harmonica has a lot of soul. Beautifully done.
"Just give me one thing that I can hold onto . . . "
Thank you, Carson for sharing your musical gift during this troubled time.
Holy cow - John Prine would be proud. Your Dad did a great job, too.
Holy cow, Becky! You nailed it with that phrase. I can't help help seeing Carson as a little like Buddy, and his old man looks a little like Leonard. They're both angels from Montgomery!
righton!
Brought tears to my eyes. Thanks.
My wife said that this was the best post of you that I’ve played for her. We think your wonderful. Thank you for entertaining us. May God Bless you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What a wonderful rendition. I really enjoy your music very talented.
Man, I'll be honest I used to scoff at Carson vids, looking so clean and everything pristine. But he is bringing some truth. Now they get my spirit riled up to make music.
I'm 60 and I've been a big fan of Carson and josh for about three years now and they never disappoint me. Carson has an incredible voice and is a great songwriter. So thank you Mr. Mckee for making a baby who grew up to be a wonderful musician. And nice job on the harp too. 😊❤👍🎶🎶🎸
A fine troubador for this generation. We are blessed by the work you, Josh and your friends offer us through TH-cam. Thanks Carson... and thanks to your dad. I imagine he's had something to do with your taste in music. Most of what is on offer today is worthless drek. Thanks for the antidote.
I’ve been waiting for this cover for a long time and it’s even better than expected! Rest In Peace John Prine
Thank you for the beauty that you bring into our lives! Rest In Peace, John Prine. You deserve a good rest and an afterlife of love, music, and peace
If there is one singer-songwriter I wish I could have met and jammed with on one song... John Prine: Angel From Montgomery. Carson, you and your Pops have captured everything Mr. Prine poured into this iconic song. Thank you. (Bro-hugs to you both)
Oh sweet Jesus y’all must have some good water where you live! Thanks 🙏🏻
This might be one of my all-time favorite recordings/performances of any song ever! Music is my life and soul and I would never say something like that lightly.
How the hell can a person
Go to work in the morning
And come home in the evening
And have nothing to say
Chills every time! Nobody captures life like John Prine did. Lovely cover as well!
It's hard to analyze why that particular lyric is so pungent, but if he did nothing else other than write that lyric, that would be a career well spent.
I've been following you since the lockdown period, but I missed this piece. Here in Italy, among young musicians there is often a debate between the importance of unpublished music and re-proposing only the repertoire of the tradition of the last 50 years. I wish many of them enjoyed your humility and preparation.
Thank you Carson and a big hello to your father .John PRINE is in peace now with the Angels. 😥😍🙋♀️🙋♂️
Beautiful tribute. Thank you. I have been a John Prine follower from decades back. I was so saddened by his passing. This felt extra special to me this week as not only did we lose John Prine to the virus, I also lost my mother to the virus on Easter. This felt personal for me. Thank you for putting such feeling into this. Your dad is amazing on the harmonica. Your whole family must be master musicians. Thank you for sharing!
Carson John is smiling from Heaven along with his buddy Steve Goodman, so nice to see your Dad. Much respect and love, you all stay safe.
Applause!!!!!!!! This is your song. Own it. Run child, run.....
Good effort Carson, keep it up, we're enjoying it.
We all had tickets for John Prine's concert in Glasgow at the back end of last year - which was postponed due to John's health and we all got rain cheques for the new date this year. Then when we heard he'd caught it, this infernal plague, we all knew it looked bad for him with his history. He'll be missed but I'll keep playing his songs in the folk clubs and pubs like I've been doing for years and years. What a song writer!
I was agitated tonight. Thank you brother for giving me a piece of your peace.
This is one of those I found in parents’ records and listened to over and over on lonely afternoons. John Prine’s songs kept me company and still do. I am sad he is gone.
Thanks for that rendition.
Dylan, Eagles, Johnny Cash, John Prine, Ernie Ford, The Levee and Flawed recording..... You are a gift to us Carson.
What a fitting tribute to one of America's greatest song writers. Thanks for doing this. Please keep them coming.
A new McKee! Great!!
Love it… You and your dad would made John Prine proud. 😍
The future for live great movie keeps getting brighter with such brilliance!
Wow. As a life long Prine fan there is nothing more that I can say, just wow.
Smooth fellas real smooth 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍😎😭😭
Carson - outta the ball park dude. Outta the ball park.
I don't typically write comment on music videos because I expect them to be good. :-).
But this is incredible. RIP J.P.
Nice job. JP would approve
Man that Eastman sounds like a million bucks on this one. Great cover of a great song.
I've been playing this for a number of years in G, but after watching your version, I much prefer your chord sequences. Great guitar work great voice & phrasing, a wonderful tribute to John Prine. This 67 year old is impressed!
I can’t stop listening to anything Carson and josh put on TH-cam. My head explodes every time. Keep it up!
What a fantastic voice Carson has and his guitar skills have improved considerably. Maybe one day, The Other Favorites will get the credit that they deserve. Josh and Carson are pure class.
Wow. Needed this one right now. What a poet John Prine was.
His buddy Steve Goodman greeted him at the Gates of Heaven for sure....
Absolutely. Saw him sing this at I think the Quiet Knight in Chicago and Bonnie sing it at Tulagis in Boulder both long before Carson was born. Prine was wonderful and Carson has the soul to do this justice.
Thank you for remembering John Prine. I didn't know of him until I listened to you & Josh Turner do Paradise. I became a fan after I Iooked up to see what else he had done. That was about three years ago. So sad to lose such an enormous talent.
Superb! Joel just dropped the cherry on top of it all.
Man I love your voice you have a split personality when you're with Josh you are today's Simon and art and when you are on your own you become today's Bob Dylan I just want every album you do on your own and with Josh, I am a big fan.
Beautiful Carson. Thanks.
Thank you Carson love you
You and yours stay safe too, Carson. Super version...
I’ve loved John Prine since I saw him peaking out on his hay bale in HMV Records, Manchester back in 1971 (?). One of the best buys I ever made. Got every album since and I wouldn’t trade any of them. Gems all.
There’s a little JP in you and Josh. And that’s great. Keep on keepin’ on.
well done Gents.............! Very nice music, good for the soul in troubled times!
Nice work Gents.
Wow Carson, that was great. Nice to see Joel add this two cents in too.
Bravo! Great music there. And making music with your Dad is priceless. My mother played until age 77 and sadly, alzheimers took it all away from her and finally her life. What I wouldn't give to sit with her and make beautiful music once more. Treasure these moments with your father.
Have seen you with Josh. Sorry I didn't appreciate your talent till this video. VERY nice! Thanks for sharing and honoring John.
Carson: This was amazing. Thank you.
Thank you.
A beautiful tribute.

"Hello Carson. Let's go to your room." -- Anton Chigurh
Just being silly. Great cover. Harmonica is a nice touch. As usual, I felt this.
I am so.pleased you did this. I am sure John Prine would have been pleased too.
Just stumbled across this looking for a male voice doing the song other than Prine - Just looking for something different. I do believe this is the best version I've heard. Unbelievably good - and yes, Prine would approve!
By far the best cover I have heard of this song!! Absolute perfection!
Dude, you are killing it. I relish these songs. Double bonus : your voice and the choice of songs. Keep it alive, Carson!
Just...wow 💚💚💚
Still can’t get my mind around John being gone. Well done, Carson.
Nice work here, boys!
Okay this was the video that made me subscribe, after watching dozens, maybe 100.
Beautiful Carson
oh my gawd!!! this is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo gorgeous!
Thank you so much for adding your voice to this fantastic song. RIP John Prine, you are truly missed.
I was fortunate to hear John Prine in concert, loved his music and songs. You've done this song very well and your Dad sounds great on the harmonica. You're such a musically talented family.
Thanks for this also to your dad
Serious chills! Thanks Carson and thanks John Prine, RIP
W O W Your voice is so expressive. So pure. So simple, direct, no frills needed, your soul is speaking clear and strong.
Nicely done. RIP Mr. Prine.
Well done, brother.
Huge fan Carson I grew up playing,singing and living John Prine and I think you nailed the best tribute I've seen to date. I hope he got that 9 mile cigarette.
This just broke me, man. Bless you and your dad.
God bless you all dear Carson. So nice song! Keep safe. Uruguay Catalogne, Montevideo, URUGUAY
A lot of people can sing a cover. You my friend, are unique in your ability to inhabit the story, give it warmth and intimacy. In my humble opinion , this is true art.
Well done.
This is beautiful and the harmonica is perfect.
Nice to see your dad on this. Hoping to see you and Josh on the road again.
I'm really looking forward to the gang getting together again soon, but I'm also really coming to appreciate you on your own. This was excellent.
Okay for real how are y’all they not top of the charts yet? Honestly this music stirs something in your soul. That’s what the world needs to hear and feel
Digg! Love John Prine, and this is one of his best. You nailed it!
One of my favorite songs done beautifully. Bravo, Carson and Carson's Dad!
Fabulous singer « the voice » this Guy Carson and an excellent musician 👍🍀👏🏿🙌
Fantastic work Carson and Dad!
Such a great version of this song and I didn't notice the capo left the E string open until I tried to play along. That's a new one on me but it sure works well for this song. Thanks Carson
Carson, you have made John Prine proud. Great cover. Thanks.
Amazing
Your voice shoots to my soul in the most beautiful acoustic melody. I wish you ease in these tumultuous times.
I also wish I lived in Bklyn in addition to adoring your accent from yesteryear. Over the years I lost mine too, but it's not nearly as charming. 🤔
Every. Single. Note. You. Sing. And. Play. Is. Done. With. Superb. Accuracy.
Carson doing John proud!!!
Nailed it with sweet country soul intact. Love the blues harp as well.. Rock on, brother.
I’ve listened to this at least 10 times a day since you dropped it.
You got it, man. Blessed for playing music. You are a true songbird.
Beautiful version of this John Prine classic, Carson. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, Andi 🙂🎸
Nice to see your father finally show up in a video.
How is it that every video that comes out becomes my favorite one yet, without the others not staying my favorites? Excellent, Carson!
Beautifully and simply - and therefore strongly - sung, as Prine intended it to be. Harmonica by dad was a great touch. Awesome.
Absolutely wonderful. RIP JP
You have such a powerful emotional voice ,, it matches anyone,, and your playing is so subtle and melodic, from a Brit fan,,
This is how I would love to play the guitar. Maybe someday. Thanks for the great rendition.
Beautiful and soulful tribute to Mr. Prine by both father and son.
