Emmylou Harris & The McCarrigle Sisters - Skip Rope Song

[jdsol1938]

what kind of violin is that being played?

[MissLilyCaro]

..first time I'm listening to the McGarrigle Sisters - not quite sure where to start, but wow, this does live up to my expectations and beyond...!

[MsSarjen]

@MissLilyCaro Well, if you're interested in more, their self-titled first album is great, and also a great introduction. One of my favorite albums.

[MissLilyCaro]

@MsSarjen thanks - will most definitely try it...

Any song sung by the McGarrigle sisters must be great because they pick wonderful songs for themselves. Besides the incredible voice, Emmylou has absolute perfect pitch and amazing voice control. Emmylou, and Kate and Anna are magic.

Thanks for posting this wonderful performance of this Jesse Winchester song . All of the playing and singing are exceptionally real and beautiful. BTW, the correct spelling is McGarrigle.

[aspidestra]

A moving sensitive performance of a simply profound song. I love all these voices and instruments. It all fits together perfectly. More please and thank you to all involved in performing and posting this little gem.

[Robert3146]

A wonderful performance w/ EmmyLou Harris.Though the electric fiddle bites it.

[MsBHoopingAllure]

Impeccably beautiful. Such an evocative and haunting song . Thanks !

[thatevening]

A beautiful, beautiful song. Thank you so much for sharing it.

[wendellhoff]

Thank-you peters332home, beautiful song by some of my favorite singers. The "a**holes deleted this from a previous post, some gibberish about infringement, nice to find it again.

[Chastalard]

I agree with everyone! What a beautiful Treasure!

[flatheadsandy22]

That's just about the beautiful treasure my ears have ever found.

[manwithnoname123]

the McGarrigle sisters are wonderful (and obviously passed on some of their musical genes to their talented children, Rufus and Martha Wainwright, too!). what a treat it is to hear emmylou in their company...

[formula602]

Nice...I saw Emmylou open for Neil Young a few years ago.

[om92555]

I have the c.d. Emmylou has covered a few of the McGarrigle songs before. Excellent choice here.

[theloaner2]

Another fine REmmy cover of yet another splendid Jesse Winchester song.

Too bad we never see him on tv internet contributions.

[jaehoel]

THANKS ! One copy sold to me : )

[jaehoel]

+ the DVD, because there's a DVD made with this album

"The McGarrigle hour" i'm not sure this video is in.

if nobody knows, i let you myself here later.

TANKS AGAIN for that post to peters332home.

[TontoYoder]

"The McGarrigle Hour" is both a CD AND a DVD and the music is not identical (though it's VERY similar). The DVD is mostly a live show with the McGarrigles, Loudon Wainwright, Rufus & Martha Wainwright & others but it has two other videos--with Emmy (the vid here) and one with Linda Ronstadt--that are obviously recorded at some other venue/time.

[jaehoel]

a few days (i hope now) : )
