I seriously can't figure out 8 people in this world that would give this a thumbs down. It blows my mind. You just can't get better then this.....amazing group of musicians. Only love for these guys
Made me smile to see Lyle in glasses. :-) I so appreciated the close-ups of the instruments; it fascinates me to be able to watch them being played close-up. It has been beautiful to watch Lyle mature over the years.
Can't believe no-one but me has enjoyed this video and commented on it in a year. This excellent 2012 live peformance of a Townes Van Zandt standard is an abiding favourite of mine! Lyle Lovett's lead vocals and rhythm guitar are supported masterfully with tremendous musicanship and unforgettable vocal chops from the band members: Victor Krause (left middle, on bass) Luke Bullock ( at the left, playing fiddle and vocals) The great Arnold McCuller (on vocals (wearing the hat, to Lyle's right) Kieth Sewell (at the right on guitar and vocals) John Hagan (on cello, to Lovett's left) and Russ Kunkle (behind Lovet on the ... er ... drum box thing that you sit down on to play. I hope i've spelled all of you fellas' names correctly. If not, ... sorry. You guys are epic together!!!!!🙂
That was incredible all the way around! I never heard Luke sing before, just knew he was a great fiddle player....guess I know what I'm shopping for today!
miss hearing Arnold's amazing sweeet voice on JT's work, so good to find hear him again with Lyle. as always, Lyle is just LYLE. defies understanding ;-)
this was such a lovely surprise -- I love Townes, and you introduced me to him [well, Lyle did] -- but I had completely confused my mind and fully expected to hear y'all launch into Luxury Liner. (which, you know, that'd be nice too.)
22 must be ( ) cause they ain't bout what music is about. These boy's learned to play, so that we can feel what their puttin' down. Boy's blow my mind, and give me an the misses a beat to two step, thank ya'all
God Bless them truckers! Thanks for haulin' gass! Put the g in there to keep it clean. You gotta' appreciate the big wheel drivers they keep the country running and it's a tough job. Did it for two years had enough. U. S A. F.

@@commontater8630 Yes, Ron White is greater than Tater Salad because Ron White can get a reservation at the finest restaurants. Try getting a reservation as Tater Salad.
Hard to see why you would. Molly's very talented (not to mention fleet-fingered) but her soloing on this song is pretty vanilla, while that of Lyle's guitarist here is full of character.

They are obviously from Mars where they don't have good music.👽🛸
Too much Barry Manilow probably destroyed millions of brain cells.
They have no soul.
@@robertrindler2080 Except for an arsesoul
Feel sorry for them
I wish there were more people our world like Lyle Lovett.
Like always, Lyle and the guys do a ridiculously fine job and love the music they play.
Excellent!! Great song, great musicians, and excellent vocals.
One of the many reasons that I'm proud to be a Texan. Lyle is so good.
I tell people I'm from Texas. Never been. Just trying to get State Credits!!!
Great truckin tune! Thanks for the music Townes and Lyle !! I'm getting to that age when old truckin friends are heading to the hyway in the sky too !

Uncle Lyle!
What a talent. Lyle you are so talented and you have excellent taste is selecting your group. Wow so great…keep it up.
That is one of the best songs I ever heard !!
Written by Townsend Van Zant, one of his many great songs.
What a lineup ! Saw these guys in Hamburg, Germany 2011. AWESOME ! ! !
So jealous!!!

Thank you for filling that out. What a set. These musicians made for quite a show all these years ago. A gem of a performance
I just love this song!
What a great bunch of talent.
Way to crush it gentlemen!!!
That was incredible all the way around! I never heard Luke sing before, just knew he was a great fiddle player....guess I know what I'm shopping for today!
Luke is an awesome singer, great voice.
So much soul.
Lyle , you are some kind of talent. wow!
miss hearing Arnold's amazing sweeet voice on JT's work, so good to find hear him again with Lyle. as always, Lyle is just LYLE. defies understanding ;-)
Thank you very much...
joy. pure unadulterated joy. steal away my mind.
Yeah Lyle Lovett go for for it
Love this music ❣️🎶

Love it!! 👏💐💗🙋
Proud that he is a Texan and his family lives close to my family in Texas.
I love this music and Lyle Lovette. Tony Dial
An amazing arrangement of musicians!
Good stuff. Real good. Diggin on that fiddle and player.
On e of the BEST...
Bad news from Houston boy can relate to that for sure
one of best of Townes'
songs he wrote but nobody does it better than Lyle
I have watched this on stage for the last 10 years , at least
Excellent
Reminds me of sitting out under the trees in the summer with a bunch pickers. No fluff just the real stuff.
absolute fire.
Yes Indeed

His guitar player is stupid good. All the great ones have someone like in their band.
Fiddler too. Not so much the Orange Blossom Special lick he follows the guitar with, but in his first solo he nails it.
Ooh yeah
townes would be pleased...

My son is an owner/operator, and there isn't anything in our lives that hasn't. at one time or another, been on a truck!
Bad News from Houston..most my friends R dyin
Yeah, that is nice.
💚
DANG ! TOWNES VAN ZANT WOULD BE PROUD.
dat sho' am good!
So, would that be "bluegrass cello" that the fella is playing...? (Tasty tune!!)
Only if you call this Bluegrass, which I wouldn't.
That harmony.
💜
Texans playing Texas music - Leeeeeevi.
Fine musicians all.
sounds good to me
Is that Dell McCoury on bass?
Fabulous! (There's a great version by Molly Tuttle & Tommy Emmanuel - which you might enjoy.) 😊
I agree. No soul or a broken thumb ! 🤔 Ron
All My friends are DEAD..
The Molly Tuttle version of this so much faster and loud it is ridiculous.
So faster and loud = ridiculous = what?
Molly is an incredibly good flat-picker and an excellent singer too.
B-A-D-A-S-S
I'm gonna say it ; I wish I was Lyle Lovett !
We ALL wish we were Lyle!!😂😂
If u love music, listen to mr. Lovett .
Townes Van Zandt America's National Treasure.
Thanks for posting. Now wouldja spell it right? It's FrEIghtliner. EI not ie.
There are only a radio station serving the public. Can't expect them to be able to spell too. They don't hire educated folks I guess.
@@alan4sure Yeah, sad.
Whos on guitar????

RUSS IN HIS FLIP FLOPS
Could you at least spell the title correctly? Freightliner. Ei not ie. Great song!
Townes VanZandt rules
You kids know what this song is about?
No daddy, tell us.
I can sit on a wood crate and slap it. HEY, I'M A MUSICIAN.
That’s one of the best drummers out there. Check out James Tayler
Yeah, like to see you slappin it, LOL

Luke Bulla.

I did not give this a thumbs down, but I don't like this song. The musicians are all GREAT, it's the song I hate.
I'll take Molly Tuttle's version over this one.
Big Disagree!
