  • Bonnie Raitt & John Prine perform "Angel From Montgomery" live at the Farm Aid concert in Austin, Texas on July 4, 1986. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

    Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help - what can you do?

    I was just a kid at this show... saw dozens of the greatest musical artists of all time in 20 hours. I was hot and sunburned and drunk and tired. It was an amazing day. Now..38 years later, I recognize that this was the performance of the day.

    Never gets old - this was so real and so poignant.
    It still echos in my head almost 50 years later......
    RIP John
    Keep on Kickin', Bonnie

    This version of this amazing song does things to me that are both physically and emotionally so bloody profound I have no words to describe it.

    This just makes me smile. They look like they’re having a blast. I love this song too and I think, although not perfect, it sounds even better live. I wish I was born 20 years earlier and I was at this event!

    Hey...I am from Australia so we are so "Down Under" but I am getting old and perhaps 'senile' Was that Chris Kristofferson who came in the help John? As I said apparently a year ago how amazing this song is(written by John ) but OMG...Bonnie 's voice is something to die for. It gets me every time. I don't check You Tube message much but I would LOVE to know if it was Chris before I drift off into the world of eternal darkness. THANK YOU and sorry if this question is lame. Good night. xox Darren

    Bonnie perfomed the song in key of E. John always did id in G. So it made it more challenging when feeling good from partying

    Once upon a time there was a phenomenal video of jp and br singing this song live but it was removed. Pretty sure it was the same version that is featured on JPs “live” album. Wish I could find that version again!

  • @pepawg2281
    @pepawg2281 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    John begins the next verse early (after Kristofferson exits) and looks at Bonnie as if he's sorry. She nods as if " yes, go ahead ".
    Uhmmmm, yeah, it's HIS song!!!!

    Was the sound engineer on vacation? Looks like Bonnie was pretty ticked off.

    • @MidWestConcertVideo2

      This is a tricky situation. Nobody on that stage got a sound check. You can see they're standing on a rotating stage, and they test a little bit on the other side before it rotates, but they really don't know how it's going to be before they're in front of an audience. What was feeding back was not the house speakers but those monitor cabinets right in front of her, and she probably told him that she really wanted them loud, and they were probably on the edge of feedback right at the beginning.
      Fortunately most people are now using in-ear monitors and that's eliminated that source of feedback, as well as dramatically increasing the quality of the sound presented to the audience.

      The sound was always a bit hit and miss with these sort of concerts, especially in the 80s for some reason, also the sound guy seems like an imbecile 🙄😂

      He had to - Pine was one beat ahead of the band. Kristofferson jumped in and helped him get back on track. Good that he did that.

      Kris "discovered" him in Chicago thanks to Steve Goodman's ( "City Of New Orleans ) recommendation.
      Steve, and John also wrote "You Never Even Call Me By My Name" which was a big hit for David Allen Coe.
      It was written as a total goof on country songs, but became a big hit.
      R.I.P. Steve, and John. I know you guys are having a great time wherever you are.

      Yes indeed, I realize that, yet I wonder how much better it might have been if the original two had the opportunity to perform it without him.

      Kris Kristofferson helped John Prine and Steve Goodman at the start of their careers. He is a big fan of both those songwriters and jump started their careers. Oh, and by the way he is pretty good songwriter in his own right. duh?
