An ensemble effort like this demonstrates how bone-headed the cancellation of LFH was...
These "Live From Here" videos come across my feed, and I'm filled with mourning that LFH died from COVID. Such fabulous sets.
They took the song, and just wrung every last drop of soul from it. And the audience a cappella part was maybe the highlight. Live music gets no better, and there's not much better in life than live music, so...
Lee Jones well said brother
Boy I miss LFH and all the magic moments that graced us each week. Always brilliant.
Magic happened here!
You had me at Aoife, everything else was just delicious gravy poured all over with a coffee and Bailey's for afters.
/agree
She got my attention when I found Crooked Still but she keeps showing me things... like Yo-Yo Ma... he's been in my awareness for years but it was with Aoife and Chris on 'Here and Heaven' that I finally /got/ it...
@Fred- the Grateful Dead got me to love this song originally. You too?
It is moments like these that show why LFH will produce pure musical brilliance. Take a classic song, add audience sing-a-long, an improvisational jam, along with Aoife's Crooked Still band mates,
then enjoy the listening bliss they create. Love the dual fiddling (goosebumps).
GENIUS - right before our very eyes people.
One day I want to jam with Chris Thile.
Incredible.
Chris Thile is pushing the song forward - everybody gets their "say" - lovely evening in Town Hall, Ellen
A drum solo that takes it steady, slow and subtle. I love this so much
Acoustic music simply doesn't get any better than this. Aoife is such a treasure.
This is superb. My daughter recently commented that music is good for the soul, live music invigorates it. This is a perfect embodiment of that sentiment.
The Stray Birds- 'Best Medicine'
"If the body is a temple, the soul is a bell. That's why music is the best medicine I sell."
We're all so sad that this amazing show is drawing to a close. Thank you for all the many amazing musical performances and collaborations over these last few years!
Never thought I would ever hear a drum solo in the middle of a bluegrass song! 😄
Actually the song Rain and Snow is decades older than bluegrass. :-)
If you wanna be a real purist about it, you probably shouldn't even hear a drum in a bluegrass song.
...and his cymbal went awol in the middle of it...damn, hate it when that happens (live)!
And WHAT A SOLO! Perfect control.
This is the version of this song I first ever heard. Then the Dead's. th-cam.com/video/-YE6_JhOS20/w-d-xo.html
The look on Aoife's face when they crash back in after the audience sings is everyone.
WOW. the was NICE
This just kept getting more beautiful. Even we (the audience) didn't drop our parts. Magical stuff...
I gave you a “thumbs up” but that doesn’t quite say enough! Beautiful work!…
Thank you!
Thank You Chris Thile and team for some of the most beautiful music that has ever brightened my days. You did a wonderful job and will be missed sadly.
Goodness...Chris can command a band and highlight every musician he has around him. He is awesome.
Twas a serendipitous morphing of their two bands - Chris's AND Aoife's, on a perfectly ancient song, & Chris knows just how to wring every drop of fun out of a LFH encore including audience participation in a soulful a cappella slow ending. but does he stop there? No! 2, 3, 4 jumps back into a righteously rollicking rocking instrumental finale, O! M! G!
Long live Live From Here
Kudos to the guy in the audience who screamed out this request- your clever spontaneity has been rewarded with this sonic monument of enduring beauty :) ❤
Is that the story? This was spontaneous response to audience request? It's the best single song I've ever heard; I'm 80 years old. The energy and communication are like none other
@@estherleedavenport5273 yes, Esther Lee- I was there in the live audience that night, and much to Chris's delight, someone shouted out this request spontaneously, in the moment. Chris replied something along the lines of "well, someone's been thinkin'!" and proceeded to coordinate the band in preparation of playing this song in this style. The only word that comes to my mind for what happens at the Town Hall is: magic.
I should also add the relevance of the request for context: the unofficial "theme" of that show's evening was "weather," so obviously this impromptu suggestion was highly apropos.
lol, Indeed
@@estherleedavenport5273 Full show back up now for just a little while:

Hope you get to enjoy!
That bass solo - this song 😍😍
Didn't really need that crash anyway . . .
What a great cover of this song. The Grateful Dead would be grateful. They wouls appreciate this.
Sorry "would"
Aoife's voice and harmonizing go straight to my soul! And a great job by all.
Damn, Chris is singing like a champ nowadays. I love this song. Makes me so homesick for the good ol' days in the Blue Ridge of my youth. Love from Bangkok.
Listening to this is wonderful, but watching it is a magical experience.
I love watching musicians interact. Nothing beats making music with a group, rather than alone, either.
A colossal tragedy that they took this off the air. Hoping for better days ahead where Chris and the band can bring their sonic wizardry back into our lives.
Yes it is! May be they will bring it back this year.
What a fantastic performance. Tasteful solos from each, and that morphing from bluegrass lament to a sort of slow jam to full on bluegrass, then to an almost soul/power ballad. Then the audience singing under Chris's direction. Wonderful.
Man. Drums don’t usually move me to tears. But that was perfect.
What great musicianship from everyone. Deep, deep respect...
WHAT A TREASURE!!! Brilliant performances from everyone.
Thumbs up is not enough.
Love the tempo and sultry drive in this song.
This dude is the modern hero of this era!!Too intelligent,true to his beliefs,a regular guy but with a huge talent and energy!!!
Damn!
Ho-lee sheeeit.
When we get this Covid thing under control we could add Molly Tuttle to your rotating house band but otherwise awesome!
No clue what time you wrote this comment but this show got cancelled
wow, Chris, pure tao... poetry in motion, so this is what a fully actualized human looks like....thanks
That choral moment at the end, dayum!! I wish I could be there!
Shit this is great.
everybody gets to do a break. sweet.
Chris is like Tommy Emanuel a genius that loves seeing other people play well...
Let me be completely honest here.
There are times on the radio show when Chris Thile tries my patience.
Too cute by half, says I.
This is most assuredly NOT such a time.
This is quite remarkable.
Being in the house at Town Hall that night was simply magical. Sitting in the 5th row singing low harmony when Chris turns and calls the audience; like the house was just another member of the band. That is a thrilling, you are not going to forget This any time soon, maybe ever, kind of moment.
Yes!!! It is magic!!!!
I keep hoping to hear an announcement that an entity is going to resurrect this show!
Does anyone know the name of the banjo player, he looks very much like the man who played banjo during the Springsteen Seeger Sessions Tour.
Never mind figured it out, Greg Liszt, and yes a member of Springsteen's Seeger Session touring band, fantastic player.
One and the same - Greg Liszt!
@@anthonysalvati5868 Liszt was alsto the banjo player in Crooked Still w/ O'Donovan. Definitely check them out if you've never heard of them.
If my memory serves he created that funky 4 finger banjo style, some banjo nerd-dom but it stands out. Great player.
But I thought the song was called “Cold Rain and Snow”!? How the heck can I enjoy it now? /s
The original is called "Rain and Snow" and dates back to the early 1900's
Is this banjo guy Gregory Liszt ?? Ok, checked, Is he , lol
Pure improvisational genius.
Laughed at the cymbal stand failure at 3:18 ! Marcus was unfazed.
hot damn when mike elizondo comes in with that bass...
Bring back LFH!! Best Radio show EVER! do we really need more bad news? bring back this stellar musical revue!!
They are filling some big shoes here. And doing it right! Cold rain and snow +
The Democratic expression of despair in this roots-driven tune offers everyone a chance to open our emotional and intellectual pores. Bravo.
I’ve said it before; Aoife O’Donovan’s quite important. Does a lot of really good stuff. Contributes a lot. Generally, I mean. Not just on this video.
She's awful purty too!
All those summer holidays in Ireland may have had an influence , ☘️☘️☘️love Aoife Sarah and Sara, I’m With Her, just great☘️☘️☘️💚❤️💚
& don't forget solo Aoife, Sometimes Why, & so many colaberations! She can do no wrong.
That bass solo at 2:00. Not a player, but it sounded simple but fantastic. Great mix too.
I love Pentangle's version of this song too!
Love the transition from mandolin to banjo at 5:50!
They would fit in at Woodstock.
Joe Cocker would be proud of Chris: the Rotating Rocker of the Mandolin! Great performance...
.... nothing short of OUTSTANDING !!
Though I can't say, but it seems to me that the "extended" version with the jamming is kind of an homage to the Grateful Dead, who popularized this song.
It's a "traditional" song It's not a Grateful Dead song. I've read that the Grateful Dead based their version from one by Obray Ramsey, though I've never read or heard from anyone in the band or associated with the Grateful Dead that that's what happened...maybe Dennis McNalley knows.
RIP live from here :(
What do you mean buy RIP?
Who’s that banjo player!?
Gregory Liszt. Plays in the band Crooked Still
Wow. Just, amazing! Thank you 🙏.
That's just smoking hot!
Chris Thile and Vulfpeck Bassist Joe Dart have super similar mannerisms and I cannot unsee it
Sublime! Brings tears to my eyes.
riding home from the mountain yesterday. This plays---tears and laughter....
Great version. I recommended also the Pentangle version. Very different
Brutal cough timing from the audience at the very end
Chris Thile constantly surrounds himself with the best talent. This is outstanding. He is a genius !
Delicate music
Wow
Bluegrass to funky blues jam,to Rollin hillbilly funk. I love you man!
Please Bring This Show Back!
dang! I remember the old Grateful Dead version of this tune, and Tony Rice does a great job with it, but this is wild!
Great song!
Nice work Chris!!
This is class their is still good music out there thank God
So god damn brilliant...I almost forgot to breathe
That cymbal just couldn’t hang.
Damn that bass sounds so good
Super! Great fusion!! 🎵🎵💟
Fantastic!
M Gilmore just staying in the trench, nice n deep
Another magic moment with LFH.
that drum solo was sick af
really fun. I mean, really really fun.
Absolute Trust and Precision.
Impeccability.
Chris, Knowing that the vocals were weak - but the instrumentation Perfection - and integrated both into the end by forcing correction.
Ended abruptly, but appropriately, on an instrumental masterpiece.
Be easier to just practice the singing at least a Few times first be easier... but, instrumentally?
Profound. And Loved the wrapup.
Excellente
I don't think I have ever heard anything so beautiful and so perfectly directed. All the hairs on my arms were straight up. Just amazing.
What musicianship, all around. And those two just winging those harmonies!... And Thile, of course, is supernatural.
Yes sir eeee! Love it!
The patience. The dynamics. The chops. Oh man.
It's got that 'ooh'!
Bloody brilliant.
LFH was a true American treasure... and they just threw it in the trash....
