this is by far the best version of the song. tops the studio version by miles and is much better than any other live version. this is just simply amazing.
This is one of those magical moments that you 'happen upon' (I literally have no idea how I just found this....) and it makes your entire year! I HAVE to see Shakey Graves live. SUCH a cool performer. Wow.
The reason some studio session recordings seem to fall short compared with the live videos is ... cause people like this are meant to play LIVE!!!! they're channeling something.... pure soul!!!!
Such a totally talented and individual, distinctive, unique way of playing and singing (you realise when you try out one of his songs - hah!)... Shakey never ceases to impress me.
I heard about this guy earlier this past semester at UT, and showed this to my Dad-- he thought it was badass. The second he realized the bass drum is a Samsonite was pretty much the tipping point on that one. I appreciate your delta-blues sound dude, keep making awesome music.
NO DOUBT!!! ...he opened with Roll the Bones when I saw him the other night in LA too! I was like WTF?! Damn, dude! You don't fuck around! haha This was the very first video I ever saw of his. One of my best friends was like "You gotta see this!" ...and it happened...and I was blown away...and was blessed to see him live just a few months later. Incredible performance. Super sweet guy. Definitely catch a show if you can and spread the word. This guy is worth every last bit. Promise.
EXXXACTLY!!! I post Shakey on my Facebook multiple times every day. I feel like a total creeper...it's not the case...I'm just trying to make the world aware of his incredible talent! Unbelievable what this man can do. The world hasn't experienced this kind of talent and raw soul in a long time.
Didnt think I would get a chance to see this guy for a long time. Just found out hes coming to the edmonton folk festival! Shakey is gonna blow em away!
Ahh that is brilliant! This is one of those rare instances where the performance is matched by the production and you get THIS...something that is pure and beautiful. You do phenomenal work. And it has to be said, Shakey Graves is just a beast
I had the same thought with the album, But ALL his Live videos blow me away!! He is super talented. I would love to see him do "A Take Away Show" Just like you, I bought his album to say Thank You for all the free entertainment I get from him here on youtube. I hope he makes a proper recording, i will buy it again in a second! I love finding new artist like Shakey Graves & Lady Lamb the Beekeeper. Im a little sad I discovered him a month after he played Denver.
Had never heard of Shakey Graves before...went to the Britt show in Oregon where he opened for Robert Plant and was blown away by his set. Roll the Bones was his first song and I was hooked. Each song in his set is great...love his musical style...but how the hell does he finger-pick, kickdrum, tambourine and sing at the same time??
Went to see Old Crow Medecine Show last week and that guy was their frist act. Was overwhelmed by his performance. After the show me and my friends were in a bar and we didn't realize he was sitting right beside us the whole time, we did shots and hung out with for a couple of hours! Great guy, he explained to us how he got to play with this brand of guitars which was a really interesting story! Oh andJameson's is his favorite if you get to meet him haha ;)
Start listening...nice beat and guitar-melody. find out the beat is coming from guitar player...wow. enjoying this instrumental song. Starts singing...surprised not just instrumental. His singing is great?? stupefying! This dude is the effing man!

Real music. That's all. No gimmicks. Just pure talent.
this is by far the best version of the song. tops the studio version by miles and is much better than any other live version. this is just simply amazing.
Pure musical genius. This guy's been listening to what most of us don't hear anymore. Austin going back to its roots.

Music that can change a person's life. Thank you. From one human to another. Keep keeping it real Shakey.
Damn he is talented this same song would have hit #1 in the 50's
I guess this is my favorite song ever. I keep coming back to that - it just has everything I need.
I just can't stop listening to this, I'm just alternating between this video and the album... Amazing
Just saw this man in Columbus on Friday. My God. Legendary. One of the best live performances I've ever been to.

This is really beyond what most musicians are doing these days. Incredible musicianship, performance and songwriting in one man.
I didn't think I would like any song as much as Late July... Then I heard this. You are an incredible musician and have a fan for life.
what a great talent.. I can't play any instrument and he plays three in the same time and also sings.. simply amazing!
Real music making a big come back. And yet it really never left because it lasts forever.
EXXXACTLY!!!

This never gets old
Why would anyone change this wonderful sound? What makes this so great is the simplicity of it all!
Still can't get enough of his music! ^.^ So amazing.
to call this simple is an understatement, this guy is BRILLIANT.
Looks straight out of the 50's in the best way possible!
sweet sound, natural voice without any enhancement, thanks for bringing the music to us
I was there that night, a night I will never forget! ! !
I should say, I don't regret buying his album... happy to support an artist.
His voice is just perfect- I love his sound :D
Love the gravel in his voice.
Just listen to it a few more times. It will totally grow on you. Promise.
...but nothing will ever top his live, solo performances. Holy shit...
Didnt think I would get a chance to see this guy for a long time. Just found out hes coming to the edmonton folk festival! Shakey is gonna blow em away!
Dude was amazing last month live in Vancouver.. this has to be the best version on youtube
I drove 2.5 hours to Kansas City to see this guy at The Riot Room great show!
Bittersweet stuff. Shakey rocks and rolls the bones..
Ahh that is brilliant! This is one of those rare instances where the performance is matched by the production and you get THIS...something that is pure and beautiful. You do phenomenal work. And it has to be said, Shakey Graves is just a beast
I'm going to make my first ever youtube comment to tell you to keep it up. Shakey, you're my favorite modern artist. keep on keep'en on
Glad I wasn't the only one. Was really let down by the sound but was happy to spend $20 or whatever it was to support a talented artist.
Easily my favorite Shakey Graves song. I was there in the front row, too!
Lucky SOB
Listen. Repeat. Listen. Repeat.
yuuuup
