Donovan! Still after all these years rocks my heart smile! 1968 laying on the grass in the back yard with my little portable record player, Donovan, and the open sky. ❣
I totally agree this would have easily been a Top Ten in 1968. It's a great song but not marketable on today's market - unless it were to have been recorded by say someone like Harry Styles.
This is incredibly good. Growing up as the next generation in England my parents both listened to Donovan, some with stories of shenanigans in Hatfield & St Albans in his company. Of course, Dave Gilmour is a massive influence (I was at Earls Court when the seating collapsed). I was playng some 60's songs the other day - Mad, Mad John... This new song is classy and brilliant. Best thing I've heard for ages. I think I'm done now. Thanks for the music.
@@HamptonGuitars Imho Ogden's Nutgone Flake is one of the most brilliant albums ever made. Don't think a band has ever been more true to its roots than Small Faces. I wish things had gone better for those lads success wise but life is life and it is what it is..
Donovan and Gilmour...you had me at hello. Good song to boot. Hope Gilmour comes round the states sometime soon or even Europe. I'll go to him. Had a chance to see Waters and blew it off. Just as well-he went on another political tyrade which included Israel. Got to see Donovan five years ago. He's still got it.
i just love how the guitar goes into floyd mode after a gradual buildup its pure genius ty so much gentleman they could have called this "spirit in the sky part 2" very reminiscent of....
The second verse is awesome! ... You've got a way about you There's no doubt about you In the crowd you're never too loud You're my heroine All the places we've been ...
omg this is so fantastic! a childhood into adult life surrounded by both of these wonderful musicians throughout it ALL ...i had to play T Rex Immediately afterwards IDKW it's ever so true now more than ever~ they saved the Best Fur Last💌
Donovan, perfect composer who in a wonderful and innovative song - Sunshine Superman - gave the young Jimmy Page the opportunity to put his unique reefs, now brings the poetry chords of Gilmour….To curtindo demais! Dois gênios juntos ainda mandando ver! 🎸☺️
Wow.. Happy Christmas already.. Beautiful song.. Sounds from back in the day that's brand new.. Donovan and Gilmore.. Don't get much better than this.. 🎶😎❤️
You've still got a brilliant voice ... and I like David's tasteful tones over the background ... cheers Mr MaryHill Man and say hi from a Sunbury on Thames chappy ... take care
Donovan going strong. Recently I was surprised to discover Jimmy Page had played on Sunshine Superman. Now David Gilmour. Good company..
What a sh*it solo and song
And Hendrix on and Jeff Beck on other singles
I'M Know about the three Jeff was on but which one was Jimi on?
@@RobertSmith-ix1cu Hendrix was originally going to play on Hurdy Gurdy man, but Page got the gig.

That's a nice image!
Same here same year I'd lie on the bed in my dorm room at night listen to Donovan for hours..
Gilmour’s guitar playing is absolutely unique, recognisable in seconds🖤✨
What a sh*it solo
You can recognize that distinct guitar playing immediately
Woah!!!! My two favorite musicians of all time?!!!!???!!? Today is special
The world needs more Donovan music to get through all the turmoil we have
Indeed so!
Uh... yeah... that will fix things.
What turmoil?
This sounds so retró and I love It. Can't beat Donovan and David Gilmour.
Gilmour so expertly laid into the track. A Holiday Gift. 🎅
Lifts my soul ❤☮️
zBack here again 🎸✌️✌️
this sounds beautiful. donovan still got it and those guitar licks from david gilmour. perfect.
Most guys at that age struggle with the vocals. This is very surprisingly good.
Fabulous stuff. Gilmour is all over this one.
54 years ago this would be a top ten 😍😎
I totally agree this would have easily been a Top Ten in 1968.

@@ericbellerose With today's crap music audience,how could it be...
So true and I love your Born Again baby pic. Music with real singing and real instruments doesn't fair too well on the charts these days.
Correct 😍🥁😎
@@ericbellerose because music fans today like nothing but shit.
What great guitar work.
The old man still got it..... Great song
Woow! That is awesome! Two of my favourite artists together! I love your music, Donovan❤!
Awesome, yes!
Piffle.

Love Mad John, Small Faces in general. I read that David Gilmour & Steve Marriott were roommates for a while, Seamus on Meddle is about Steve's dog.

@@HamptonGuitars A different Mad John. Check out Dono's from Gift.
It's so great to hear that Donovan is still making music. That guy was so great back in the 60s.
Today who else needed this besides me?
The lives we may have lived when Jahuesha Christ Our Lord was in the Earth
Great song ! And if I understand well, a new album to come ... what a good news !
Donovan continues to release spectacular music to this day, Thank you for the wonderful gift that is your music ✨
The guitar, the electric (violin?), The emotion behind the singing - I had never heard this before
Peace man.

You've got a way about you
There's no doubt about you
In the crowd you're never too loud
You're my heroine
All the places we've been
...
Lol.
This is what music is all about , a great track
I listened to a ton of Donovan during my college years. Listening to him today still takes me back to those wonderful years. Magic 🪄 🎶
Donovan was (and Is...) In my top 10 of songwriters
Listening to this on repeat. It's giving me life right now. Thanks to Donovan and all of the artists in his orbit.
Donovan is a living legend what a tune high volume / repeat 👌
For me, D Gilmour was and still is Pink Floyd
FWIW
Late night dreamy vibe
A wonderful album.
dope song
Fantastic song Donovan!
Gets better every time i listen ......Would love one of your guitars ...Universal Soldier !,,Best lyrics ever written ✌️🎸🎸
Reminds us a bit of T. Rex, very nice job on this one. We would love to see you tour the US soon.
Funny that; when T-Rex first started they reminded me a bit of Donovan! 😄
That's really a great song!
omg this is so fantastic! a childhood into adult life surrounded by both of these wonderful musicians throughout it ALL ...i had to play T Rex Immediately afterwards IDKW it's ever so true now more than ever~ they saved the Best Fur Last💌
This is awesome. I have always enjoyed listening to David Gilmour and Donovan.
Kinetic energy. This is a deceptively great song.
Number one on the charts! Long live Open Road's Roots of Oak! Thank you for the music.
Oh so Great , what a fab collaboration Guys . Keep Rocking 👍👍⭐⭐🎵🎵

Gilmour.
This tune will stick with me
Wow this is what we need. I have tears in my eyes. So good. Well done Geezers :)
Cool song!
Cool :)
Very good songs and very good guitar solo. 🤘👌✌️
Still doing great things today. A little bit of 'Lay Lady Lay', yet pretty original. Always cool and one of the greatest, singing songs of love.
Melody brings joy and the riff brings chills.
Genio Donovan
I saw Donovan when he opened for Yes, during an early 70's US Tour... (74?, I think)
Old is new again. Beautiful
Very good, super really!🙏❤🔥📿
Wow, this is unexpected! Sounds surprisingly fresh.
Foly huck! 💚
😆
Love it
Great song! Thank you!
Awesome!
Evileyes. It is not a top ten any longer but after such a long long time Donovan still gives me bumps. I love him and his voice. !!!!!!
🎶LEGENDARY collaboration!
Great! I can’t wait for the album.
I have loved Dono since the 1960s, he has only one problem , he never knows when and how to end a song .
Ahhh, naw: ya just fade out and call it good! 🤓😉😬
Way down below the ocean...🎶
You dont know how to start a song and who calls him Dono???
@@Bo88in I have songs coming out of my arse, the problem is they are too deep for the moronic general public, and his mates call him Dono.
Love is Donovan
Too You Donovan
super song ! j'adore ! très belle musique !
DONOVAN IS GREAT!!
Good stuff!
Christmas came early ‼️🧣
It sounds great I must say
Sounds like something from the saucerfull of secrets ~> more soundtrack time period
