- Commemorating the King with this 1989 Alannah Myles tune.
So excited about this collaboration! Happy to have had the chance to catch up with an old college friend, and super thankful The Other Favorites took time from their busy tour schedule to make some music with little ol' me.

I'm old enough to be your grandfather (74). I'm also a professional guitarist/singer who's played and sung rock for a living since I was 16 (was a studio guy in Chicago for many years). You kids blew me away! You are the real thing, without a doubt. Thank you.
Great grandfather you mean?
Not quite. But close.
No need to be an asshole. I was being complimentary to these musicians. Why do you feel the need to insult me?
Great compliment Gran'pa. I have to agree, these guys are awesome musicians.
@@prs1945 Don't let the trolls bother you, Marv. Your wholesome comment was pleasant.
I am regretfully terrible at responding to comments, but please know that I have read through them all and I am so grateful for your support and kindness! I am planning on sharing a lot more with you all soon :) Thank you all so so so much from the bottom of my heart!!
You need to give us more!! 😍😍😍 you can go places lady😊😊😊
Hey Talyor. Love your voice. Please dont rush, and make quality covers like these!! 😉 goodluck!!
Love your voice Taylor! Can't stop listening to this one.
You have a bright future young lady. Don't outgrow your "raisin".
Can you post more blues songs plz? 🙏🙏🙏
Takes a good guitarist to make a single electric guitar sound so full and complete and a Telecaster at that. They really are more versatile than we give them credit for - Telecasters - Josh is superb. As another 60 something guitarist singer I'm also blown away by these young musicians performing without multiple effects and overproduction. It's refreshing.
I totally agree, talent galore! I don't play guitar, but if I did, it would be a Tele :-)
The tele is simple you can either play it or you can't . I have owned several of them of all values including custom shop they to me are the finest guitar out there . These guys have lots of talent too . There life in the fast lane cover is right on .
The Tele is the most versatile guitar, does everything from spikey punk to mellow jazz. It’s just a perfect instrument, so simple but so effective.
Lou Davidson, Yes, not easy to make a single guitar sound that good, and great harmony's too.
I would love if next time they directly recorded the guitar instead of through a vocal mic, that would do so much more justice to his playing and the mix would be a lot fuller especially in the low ends :))
My favorite thing about Josh's covers is that he really "gets" what these songs are and what they ought to feel like.
Absolutely, it’s one of his superpowers. I have listened to his various singers and they never sound as good as they did with Josh. This doesn’t include Carson and his brother Skyler. They get it.
Josh really does understand the songs. I love his entire Channel. Fantastic songs, one and all. 😍
That singer is special.her voice brought a tear. I hope she's performing regularly with it
That brother on the right is absolutely spot on with the harmony. Great tone all around.
Isn't he just? It's very impressive
He’s great, his name is Carson McKee and he and Josh Turner Guitar (L) are a duo called The Other Favorites. They all have their own TH-cam channels. I love it when they get together like this
Terrific harmonies!
That brother's friggin Carson Mckee. Dude's got a legendary voice. =)
Holy smokes, her voice!
she's not that bad... 😂
she's pretty bad though... 😐
Her voice is about 20 years older than she is; and I mean that in the best way. Awesome.
Blake *yawn..Can you try harder please?
@@blake59 Like a pizza cutter,
@@blake59 its not that good
Favourite thing ever in live recordings:
People laughing/ smiling during either because they made a minor error or just really enjoying themselves.
Man those harmonies are [chefs kiss]
Back of the neck hairs: UP!
Thought the same thing
THIUS SUCKEDD
@@scootter1956
correct...
@@scootter1956 No, actually they ARE harmonizing. Perhaps you're confusing harmonizing with splitting octaves.
God, that harmony during the chorus..WOW
Never gets old, even years later. That harmony…just. wow. Well done! ❤️
I’ve watched this video a number of times but for some reason, this time - when the chorus kicked in - chills went up my spine…it’s dead on.
Man she ROCKS this song! Its amazing that her speaking voice is so soft but when she sings she belts it!
My God that young lady has a wonderful voice 💕🤩
I'm 68 and I've heard about everything and this is one of the best covers ever!
Pretty voice..Perfect Harmony..To your knees indeed
Gave me goose bumps guys - Wow! - 67 year old Aussie. Fantastic harmony. Never noticed the wrong chord - only the laughing!
That young lady has a fantastic voice. Josh and Carson are always good to listen to. Well done by all.👍👍
The lyrics:
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightning, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could
You do?
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
If you please, if you please, if you please
Gracias
Amazes me that he does all the tunes that I like. And does them better than I could ever imagine.
Period... Pure God given Talent.
This is why I am addicted to YT. All the great music from "unknowns" I should just say, uncommercialized
This isn't an "unknown" song. Hello?
@@TheVeek192 I am decently sure that he(she?) did not mean't to comment song.
She meant people not song
I come back and watch this all the time. Wish you guys did more songs together y'all sound incredible
Dude can play his ass off!!!!!!.......Lead singer got soul!!!!....Harmony is impeccable!!!!!
IT started quite as a common cover .....but........ thouse voices ... oh my goodness..... You are amazing
Holy smokes, her voice!
Man those harmonies are [chefs kiss]
... Really? You've literally just combined two top comments
I love the fact that these "kids" are digging the awesomeness of the classic songs! Hats off to them! Rock on!
Carson au top ! Josh comme d'habitude, bien présent où il faut. Taylor...wahou !!!
There are no words...well, bloody amazing springs to mind.
Wow! Her voice is incredible. Great job guys!
You guys nailed that!! What a beautiful singer and great harmonies by the gentlemen!!
I can't get over her voice👍👍👍
Keep coming back to this, it’s something else
Oh man Oh man!!! I'm 38 and i just cried ! You folks just shattered my bones and evaporated my blood! I felt totally absorbed with your voices and music !!! I hope you all make it in the ways you never dreamed of !
Was already my favorite song... now it has transcended even further.
Oh my God .. sing it Girl ! So good. I love your soul.
What can you say, this kid Josh and his friends are always well worth a watch, TH-cam thank you.
I've listened to this like 100 times and I just now realized that he laughs when he plays the wrong chord at 3:14
Boy what fun it would have been SIXTY years ago when I was this age... to have the capacity to record ourselves. Love it!
Shivers all over the place. Those guys are good, but girl... you are from an other planet! And beautifull on top of that... More please?
Man it is refreshing to see all this talent and going worldwide. You kids are great with sound and style If you go big time..please don't change!!!.
3:30 Taylor´s look and that lip bite at the end. I am weak on my knees right now
The voice of that girl is amazing. Much much much better than many of the fake singers imposed by media..
I can listen that whole day..
Thanks for sharing guys.
Taylor and Carson really nail this song, and beat all previous versions. But as always; Josh. When you can do what he does with “just” a Telecaster (the only electric a real player needs), or a no-cutaway Martin 000 (see other videos), you aren’t just a performer, or a session player. You are a true freakin’ master musician. Real artist. Please don’t stop. And btw, Sixteen Tons just proves it again. You guys belong in the Congressional Library of Eternity or whatever it is called.
Until now I didn't realize what the song was really about... I am truly blown away by these youngn's...
A pure sensation! Please never stop singing!
Simply....BEAUTIFUL!
This is excellent. Taylor Neita you’ve got a great voice.
This girl vocalist has talent . Go girl! . A great version of BV . A joy to listen to this trio.
This is still one of my favorite. I just k Ike Taylor's voice and huge talent. She's gooodddd
I love the way Josh plays the guitar.
In it heart and soul
Hey! I Write to you from Italy. In these time of quarantine, to see and discover that still exist thinghs like this, reminds me that good times will never ends. Thank you. You're very great musicians; YOU ARE FANTASTIC.Really.
Riccardo.
Beautiful harmonies, it sounded like one voice. And a beautiful guest singer as well, with a killer rendition!!
Everytime I watch you young cats twist out a tune that I'm familiar with or know y'all just blow me away !! This was no exception, WOW I'm fixin' ta be 63 and y'all may just be my new favorite rockers, cause Lord knows I damn sure can't wrap my head around none of the so called rockers today, actually there aint no rockers today. Keep up the great sound kids, Peace Out and Fish On
Loved this song back then, love it now.
So good to hear real music these days. These three are terrific. Thanks so much.
Carson McKee what a fabulous Voice.
fantastic, what a voice, great! 🏆⚘♥️😎
Alannah Miles grew up about three quarters of an hour drive from where I grew up. I used to see her in little dive bars. Thanks for bringing back some three decades old memories of the good old days.
That guy on the right is a real unsung hero in my opinion.
Who is he?
@@lizzyw4157 Carson McKee
Like many before me I am also going to say how awesome it is to see young people playing and singing together. You are all very talented, an impressive performance. Actual music these days is becoming so rare, this was a breath of fresh air.
Man that "smile" from 3:06 gives me shivers!!
I've watched this every night for the last week.... dam it's just so good....
Been following Josh and Carson for about as long as they've been around. Originally for the folk and bluegrass covers, and eventually because as a musician they sure keep me humble. Have to say, this trio is, of all the collaborations, absolutely amazing. I would be so happy with an album of you three with rhythm accompaniment. Just fantastic work.
Josh, Taylor, and Carson caught lightning in a bottle with this rendition of Black Velvet. I've been around a long time and that piece gave me shivers and brought tears simultaneously.
Great job guys.
2:53, Carson's harmony is so damn good.
Listened to this about a dozen times and I don’t think I’ll ever stop.
Awesome, well done folks. Love the Telecaster too.
I’m addicted to Taylor’s voice. What a vocalist great job. Also she is adorable. Excellent work by Josh and Carson as well. I hope to hear more of Taylor soon!
3:15 - Best Moment, when they just laugh away that mistake. Love this!!!
Wow, her voice just fit soo perfect for this piece, and the 3 togheter make it even better.
A favorite song and you guys nailed it!
@Taylor Neita PLEASE do not let anyone tell you that your voice needs any type of rework in any recording you do
That was PURE
Good music never dies when performed by talented people! Excellent work!
Wow i have been listening to this on repeat for the past couple of days, what an awesome cover! Amazing voices, lovely playing, truly an amazing cover! Please make more because this trio rocks!
Wait...Josh finally played a wrong chord? He’s human? Damn. I may get my guitars out of the closet and start playing again. 😁
When was this alleged wrong chord? Right at the very end?
@@RalphDratman 3:13
@@siveguten3739 Thank you! I would never have noticed that without help.
@@RalphDratman Haha! No, i didn't notice the first time i watched the video, he is really talented!!
Ralph Dratman Actually Josh himself admits it at 3:42.
I had a wicked crush on Alannah, just like every other 16 year old boy in 1989. You kids are absolutely incredible! I have to listen again. I'm definitely old enough to be your dad. I wish you were all my kids! So very proud of you!
Magnifiques vos 3 voix ! Et la guitare de Josh 🔥
Great pipes! Gives me goose bumps. Yeah!
Wow dont lose each other. Great harmony. I used to play in bands. We tried to get a motown sound. Not easy for 5 white guys from Va. we never had anything like that. Iguess we needed a lady..for those high parts. You guys just knocked me down this morning. Good choice of songs. Have you ever considered..some old Patsy cline or some of the country rock stuff. Some of it is so old you could make it your own.
Great, great. Love it!
Interesting to see comments on here from "older" guys.....me too....I'm 68 and (being a Beatles generation) had given up on hearing quality music again....but everything that Josh and his friends produce has given me renewed hope that live music can be great again....and in so many genres.
I've been listening to this song since I was 4 when it came out and my mother fell in love with it. Without a doubt, this is one of the most beautiful versions I've heard. Well done.
It takes a lot to make this ol girl smile!! I just laughed. This is beautiful. I love to see young people with this kind of passion , having fun.
I have listened to this a thousand times already (probably). I LOVE the harmonies in the chorus, I LOVE her (husky-like) voice, I LOVE the telecaster tone and the cool fills that Josh plays here and there. This is just perfect.
That sharp aggressive tele sound are a perfect contrast to the vocals. It adds some edge to the performance and helps it to stand out. 👍
I know this is an old one but I love this song! Great cover, y’all never stop amazing me !
OMG! The harmonies! Mind blowing!
one of the best accoustic covers i have ever heard
I got kids older than you guys and am a musician.....I'm very proud of you kids. Great job. Girl, you got some soul in those vocals. Keeping a full sound using a Telecaster takes some skill....you nailed it, kid.
I just cant get enough of this and its been years
I just keep coming back to this cover, it really is all that. The vocals had the perfect balance of raw emotion and flourishes. Also, just chiming in with another 'this needs to be on spotify' comment.
I remember hearing this song on Toronto radio I could catch from across lake Ontario when I was in my teens.
I love when people keep the end of performance "how was that take?" etc. in their videos :)
For sure. Makes it more "real" used to love hearing it on albums. Like Ringos famous "I GOT BLISTAS ON ME FINGERS" 😂
I've been following Josh Turner for a little while and it amazes me that he is surrounded with such fantastic talent. I'll admit that I had never heard of you but I'll also admit that it was my loss.
11 out of 10 on the talent scale! Taylor knows how to switch on the afterburner!
Ouahouhhh ... Impressionnant. Sensationnel !!! . Super !! Une voix magnifique, des chœurs impeccables. ( bonne gratte ) ! Chapeau bas.
Sounds even better after a few listens, soul in them vocals, tasteful harmonies, bad ass guitar..... raw young talent, good luck out there, kind regards from Alex in the mountains of Norway.
Wow! What a beautiful voice! You're all fantastic! Love it. Thank you.
In love with this cover! Listen to it everyday!
I give up. I can't comprehend hoiw JTG can be so good over so many different genres and styles and always connect with the perfect people/musicians for each song over and over again? He has this effortless talent for channeling the artist he is covering. Doesn't he know that he's impossible??? His covers are more marks of reverance than covers!
