  • I actualy got to meet Gerry and Dewey backstage at a concert once and it's a moment that I'll never forget

  • Love this song! The original recording has a great electric piano groove running through it and the piano is really turned up in the mix. The song as well as the recording has a most haunting beauty to it.

  • I got in touch with Dan Peek about a month ago, I have loved America ever since "a horse with no name" but I hadn't realised they knew John Martin.Dan was kind enough and magnanimous to reply and take the time to explain how it all came about.I don't want to presume but I guess he was very unwell at this time.All the more respect for a great guy who improoved the quality of my life countless times. R.I.P my special soul mate.

  • priceless

  • My definition of music is this, and sounds I need to hear.

  • This is on a par with John Martyns original America great job diferent tuning me thinks ?

    

  • I LOVE THIS SONG

  • AMERICA rocks still to this day..have seen them over times in 40 yrs..met them many times..partied with them once or twice backstage..met their famililes ..nicest guys EVER!! Their music is timeless.....and they packing in the crowds all over the world.!!

  • "Layin' down the ways to SHay I need you

    SHcared of lookin' tall and feelin' SHmall..." :-)

  • If it's an America album and the album name starts with the letter 'H' it cannot be beat!

  • Amazing sound !! absolutely great

  • THANKS for posting this--it's as good as the original

  • thanks for butchering a beautiful Martyn song. awful

  • Gerry Beckley has such a beautiful voice

  • Really lovely cover. Most of the time when I hear people playing versions of John Martyn songs they just annoy me, but this one is very nice :)

  • What was the location of this video?

  • This is my first time I hear them alive... OMG, Gerry and Dewey have their style... Here, Dewey has the most beautiful voice I ever heard... If somebody knows how to invite them to a concert, PLEASE, tell we want them here in Lokombia!!!!!!!!!!

  • Gerry & Dewey, you guys are truly AMAZING ... your guitar playing, your singing, your spirit...is MAGIC. Feel happy to be ALIVE, when I hear this song..... Thank you so much :)

  • the second time they visited Lima in 2004 they played some great rendition of Cornwall Blank" with guess appearance of Cristopher Cross singin' the Peek's Dont cross the river later on that concert.

  • great song! going to see them for the 2nd time in may....i hope they sing this.

  • DUDE!!! Do you have "Moon song " Which was also on that ALBUM? That was one the greatest albums of my youth. And that was my fav song by America!!!! I'd apprec!! :)

  • Hey, have tried to post "Moon Song". Would love the live performance of that particular piece if anyone has. "Homecoming" still rocks!!!

  • @Cornwallblank75 -thanks for posting this video! You rock!!

  • @missdebbielee check Cornwallblank75's channel again. A vintage clip of Moonsong was posted in April, after your post requesting it. Cornwall has tried several times but all have gotten pulled. This one, so far, has stayed... Know what you mean--love this song, too. If you like America, feel free to check my channel, too, for some good playlists of their material.

  • sounds like alvin and the chipmunks

  • Nice live performance of this song!

  • Many thanks for this, a great take on John Martyn's gem. The original is fantastic with Danny Thomson's jazzy bass work and Martyn's inspiring vocals (the album Bless the weather is of similarly high quality).
