- This is from night one of four nights at the Guild Theater in Menlo Park, CA, a fabulous small venue with a great sound system. Molly's show was exceptional!
The Band:
Molly Tuttle - vocals, guitar
Dominick Leslie - mandolin
Kyle Tuttle - Banjo, vocals
Shelby Means - bass, vocals
Bronwyn Keith-Hynes - fiddle
I love it when Molly and the band put a slow, soulful song or two in their set. This is gorgeous, instrumentally and vocally. Molly, your voice with the harmonies is exquisite.
Lets say thanks to Shelby for the icing on the cake.
Molly's a straight-up badass.
shiver me timbres
Such a beautiful woman! Her music is a force that cannot be contained and she harnesses it and shares it with us in a way that we can understand.
Around 0745 that takes some doing!!!!
Beautiful cover, wonderful band all around. Geeks will know that Garcia ad Hunter lived in Menlo Park 1961-1963, they would totally approve.
What a wonderful version to add to to the timeless catalog. Molly adds her own wonderful touch and I love every bit of it.
Lovely. Thank you!
Mollie has a great voice but when singing with Shelby it all sounds that much better.
Props to Shelby Means!
You girls make cool music
Such a great sound , a great song and a truly a great ensemble performing this wonderful song. Molly Tuttle is the just best ,isn't she.
She absolutely is!!
Standing on the moon
I see a shadow on the sun
Standing on the moon
The stars go fading one by one
I hear a cry of victory
And another of defeat
a scrap of age-old lullaby
Down some forgotten street
Words by Robert Hunter
Thanks for this, Paul. A late gem that Molly makes her own.
Yes, I agree. It's an excellent cover!
Beautiful. You all sound so sweet.
Thanks for listening
She was awesome!
Absolutely!
that girl can play guitar
Sweet! I know a place on Earth where you can stand on the moon. I would happily take you there so you could check it out.
Standing On the Moon
Standing on the moon
I got no cobweb on my shoe
Standing on the moon
I'm feeling so alone and blue
I see the gulf of Mexico
As tiny as a tear
The coast of California
Must be somewhere over here - over here
Standing on the moon
I see the battle rage below
Standing on the moon
I see the soldiers come and go
There's a metal flag beside me
Someone planted long ago
Old Glory standing stiffly
Crimson, white and indigo - indigo
I see all of Southeast Asia
I can see El Salvador
I hear the cries of children
And the other songs of war
It's like a mighty melody
That rings down from the sky
Standing here upon the moon
I watch it all roll by - all roll by
Standing on the moon
With nothing else to do
A lovely view of heaven
But I'd rather be with you
Standing on the moon
I see a shadow on the sun
Standing on the moon
The stars go fading one by one
I hear a cry of victory
And another of defeat
A scrap of age old lullaby
Down some forgotten street
Standing on the moon
Where talk is cheap and vision true
Standing on the moon
But I would rather be with you
Somewhere in San Francisco
On a back porch in July
Just looking up to heaven
At this crescent in the sky
Standing on the moon
With nothing left to do
A lovely view of heaven
But I'd rather be with you - be with you
Songwriters: Robert Hunter, Jerome Garcia.
Thanks for posting the lyrics.
absolutely my friend; some songs are lyrically so poetic that the words can stand alone and seem to transcend when connected with accompanying music @@pauldion914
Is no one going to mention the killer Rancid cover (5:20, don't know the song name), especially her inspired extemporeneity at 7:32 and forward...
The song is "Olympia, WA" and I agree that it should be getting more attention. It's one of my favorite Rancid songs and she killed it!! Thanks for your comment and for watching.
@@pauldion914 LOL I thought we were missing the song title, but it's right there.
She is so much better then that crazy lady that seems to always interrupt football games.
