Ryan has got be one of the few invaluable modern songwriters. Just a fabulous song and that about sums it up really.

[rubbersole79]

I need an FM station that plays this kind of stuff..........

[BrotherBoognish]

Legendary live version of one of my favorite RA tunes. He is on something and having fun in this one!

[Sully5400]

1:30 = Geeked

Damn, what a song! what a performance!

[BraydonGreenway]

i want those shades. hes the man.

[kim8501]

I listen to this song over and over again. I love it! I think it is my favorite by far!!!

[hijodelchostomo]

Este es un maldito sueño hecho realidad, larga vida al enorme Ryan Adams!

[AtmaRising]

this album is an underrated gem.

[stina20a]

Trying so hard to learn this one on guitar. As a beginner, it's been slow going. Have only been playing for a bout two months now. And just recently started concentrating on this one. Had a bit of a breakthrough tonight! :P YAY!

[rosswsp]

Best songwriter of our generation.

[natschavez]

the man fucking rules

[MrSoundman1955]

this is insanely good. INSANELY GOOD.

[buddybopper]

One of the greatest songs ever written.

[jimbopumbapigsticks]

One of the reviews of 29 said it was "An amazing return to form".

My question: when was he ever off-form? Reviewer talking shit, plainly.

[buddybopper]

@jimbopumbapigsticks Maybe it had something to do with his heroin addiction? Or maybe that was Easy Tiger.

[BlackInkSociety]

I love these Ryan Adams BBC sessions. Very good quality videos. Thank you so much for posting!

[stina20a]

Also addicted to "Strawberry Wine". Can't understand why the album didn't appeal on first listen. Guess it just wasn't the right time.

[stina20a]

Long been fascinated by Ryan (10 years now) but never managed to be a fan. Kept circling back to his music until last spring - time must've been right. I'm a late bloomer! :P Heard "29" last year and didn't like it. Finally picked it up again last week. I'm so addicted. I've lost track of the number of times I've played this song - AMAZING! Now can add "29" to my list of other Ryan Adams addictions! DAMN YOU RYAN! :P He always gets me in the end!

[GregDrJJones]

Macfae, you are the angel agent of Ryan Adams quality live performance YouTube videos. Thanks!

[macfae]

@GregDrJJones - thank you - it's a pleasure sharing Ryan with anyone and everyone.

[MrForhelvede]

@macfae Do you know if this show is out on DVD

[macfae]

@MrForhelvede - wish it was but as far as I know, no. It was just a special on the BBC

[ArbisIII]

los Cardinals tocan la hostia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gerry8737]

1:46 = happiness

[detroitkeith]

it doesn t get much better than this !!!!!!!

[detroitkeith]

it doesn t get much better than this !!!!!!!

[wist0301]

"29" was a seriously underrated album.

[axegas76]

@wist0301 Indeed

[hammer41184]

He sure can tell a story...and sing it! It's always so perplexing why more people don't know about this kind of song

[macfae]

Ryan writes such interesting lyrics and they seem to be straight from the heart.

They read like poetry.

Guess that's why I've become a huge fan of the Avett Brothers. They are great storytellers too.

[retrograde458]

"i met your sister, and i'm marrying her in july. But if only to get closer to you, caroline."

best part of the song. period.

ryan adams is a god.

[dbldee22]

Thanks!

[dbldee22]

Ryan is one of the most prolific, brilliant & honest song writers in music, period. Thanks for posting these.

[macfae]

glad you're enjoying them !

someone else who has a lot of great old cool RA videos posted on youtube here is: Trandofir

check out his page.

[dbldee22]

One of my favorite RA songs. I've picked up like 12 whiskeytown, cardinals cd's in the past 3 months. I really hope he brings the Cardinals back. Seemed like they had great chemistry together, Im hopeful they tour again

[macfae]

I got interested in Ryan the last couple of years after hearing a lot of his live shows on the net. Actually, I only own a few cds of his because I am so hung up on the live recordings.

But I finally picked up a Whiskeytown cd

( Strangers Alamanac ) recently and love it.

[dbldee22]

All 3 Whiskeytown cd's are worth picking up. The "Deluxe Edition" of Strangers Almanac ( 2 cd's) is definitely worth getting.

Can you suggest some live RA recordings? Are they decent sound quality?

[macfae]

The Deluxe is the one I bought....I recomment it to anyone.

if it's ok, I'll send you a message with some info about the live recordings.

[valverdista]

The pedal steel makes all the difference.

[funkyfairyfur]

BRILLIANCE!

[lanerant]

JC! there is no one better alive!

what the hell does one have to do to get into his band???!!!

[agoldenexit88]

haha I live in Mecklenberg

[olebrent]

I love this song to much!!!

[tervivjerbry]

this might be a really stupid question but is that john corbett--the actor playing guitar--i know for a fact john corbett dabbles in music!!

[macfae]

guess he does look a little like him but no -that is Neal Casal...he has his own website and myspace, if you want to check him out further. He and Ryan seem to blend together very very well.

[nabreadner1]

Love this song..anyone want to speculate on what its all about?

[jbelle1985]

just absolutely fantastic. i'm excited to see these BBC sessions, finally! thanks for posting them, macfae, way to be a good Cardinals friend and fan.

[blandatious]

one of my all time favorite ryan adams/ cardinals songs. album version could pass you by but comes into its own live. thanks for posting

[macfae]

I began familiar with Ryan Adams through hearing a lot of live taped shows. As much as I love his cds, he / the band / the songs  - it all really comes alive with an audience.
