Arlo Guthrie - Sailing Down My Golden River

[DrWHolmes]

I grew up listening to a recording of this concert, but the tapes burnt out and I've never been able to find it again... WHERE CAN I FIND THIS FOOTAGE?

One of the greatest songs I have ever heard...

This song connects the generations. Pete wrote this song. Arlo asked his daughter Sara (who wasn't born when this concert took place) to sing it in concert in 1993 while he played and Pete watched. There's another great (and much more recent) video of Sarah Guthrie singing this song with her brother Abe, her husband Johnnie, and her Dad.

I do love the harmonies from Shenandoah in this video.

Does anyone know what happened to the drummer here?

[mcgrover1]

@ledder68 The drummer is Terry "a la Berry" Hall who is touring with the Guthrie clan still, but at this recording, was part of Shenandoah.

funny- he is wearing the same shirt he did when he sang it on the muppt show

LOL look how relaxed Pete is at 1:13 !! makes you just want to kick back with him!!

[eeek77]

Not only relaxed, but enjoying Arlo's song.

We sang this at my dad's funeral this past week--was quite perfect for a guy who lived for being on the water. Anyone know where I can find an Arlo MP3 to download? Found ones by Greg Brown and Pete, but both are slower than I like it--Thanks Pete for creating such beauty

what a man your dad must have been!

[puelemueix]

have you checked out Amazon?

[blortner]

Pete and Arlo together brought the generations together in a way that no one else seems to have been able to do. They're both living legends!

Dear old Pete is 89 now. May he live to 105.
