Monte Montgomery Live From Daryl's House - Sara Smile

[seocom]

I absolutely love that song. Usually only like the original but that was great

[ShaneWhitecloud]

Amazing bro!!

[Tracey1972m]

Monte was amazing in this, but Mr.HallLove Hall and O was soothing at the end like always..very cool..

[carlosantenna]

best band. EVAR.

[witz59]

how cool would it be, to sit next to daryl, and have him ask you to sing his song??

[dcbp00]

...i love how they didnt show the black guy playing the drum ... at all, just a hand

[tylarmelfi1]

@dcbp00 Why was he not video'd!!

[NCBlueDevil09]

Truly Amazing what a great song.. Old school jam with soul.could watch over and over.... ...when I feel I cant go on ,you come and hold me..

[NicholeB1969]

I could watch and listen to this forever!!!.. RIP T Bone !!! You were an awesome gutarist!!!

[fivesmom]

Never want them to stop! Thank you guys!

[steveb391]

This is what its all about. Just groovin and feeling the music, eveyone knows the song so they just felt the vibe and its beautiful. Man I would love to do that more, pure love for the fun magic of making music.

[AllanDavidRock]

GREAT FEEL,VOCALS AND INSPIRATIONAL LEAD GUITAR WORK,

[BaconStrip27]

Saw Monte in Cleveland this past weekend, Incredible musician! He is a guru of the guitar!

[ForestElfQueen]

most awesome!

[ChicagoJan]

Man!! Everyone does it better at Daryl's House ;-)

[vossovich]

Getting old there daryl!!!

[helloman1976]

Why is it that every time I watch this, and I watch this video a lot, that I always look at the drummer and think, man he'd be the perfect Muppet character...LOL

[ForestElfQueen]

@helloman1976 agreed!! haha

[kenouman]

crap, I tried to cancel that post. didn't know the dude had passed away.

[kenouman]

John Oates, there in the middle hasn't aged too well...

(yes I know that's not really him)

[Marty7Wizard]

really? let Hall sing it. Other guy's voice does not fit this song and we get it. you can run scales on a guitar. I hate when people overplay on leads. only cool thing is that we get to see Hall sing a few bars at the end. write your own songs other dude.

[dharmaseed]

@Marty7Wizard He's trying to do too much on this song. His vocals and soloing are all over the place. If they wanted Beyonce, they should have called Beyonce. That's who his vocal style reminds me of.

[flipnsac]

I noticed how everyone was smiling while performing this, probably because they were all enjoying the jam. The guitar work by both Monte and T-bone was awesome. Every time I see T-bone performing on film I am blown away by his skill and mastery of the guitar. He was a fantastic musician.

[NicholeB1969]

@flipnsac Loves T-Bone too. Lost him too early man.  :(

[1964ser1]

@flipnsac Yes Mr. T-Bone was one of the best.. RIP

[devlinmcivor]

awesome song damn good job good band

[Melissajoe816]

love how Monte sings this and love how high and sweet Daryl sings at the end of this one ~ he's taken good care of his voice it sounds like. beautiful swimming on the tune... all players doing open hearts ~ can hear it ~ :) gotta love it!

[izefreeze]

Watch this in 480p, it makes a world of difference. 

[mickcareolac]

OMFG!!! This is so cool. I love it slowed down like that, it grooves in a whole new way. You can tell Daryl was diggin it that way too. I have never heard of Monte Montgomery, gotta check him out NOW!

[BabsTen]

AWESOME !!!!!!!!! I love these guys.

[RFDlic]

The first version I heard was this:

Xf5WXsHWwvw

[RFDlic]

Monte loves the refrain with the background vocals.

(o: Next time Daryl will practice a second voice shortly before? :o)

We all love this song!

[austntexan]

Daryl is loving this. . . look at that smile! What a compliment for Monte to be asked to play.

[dunbarrn]

Great and the guitar playing, Wow! I believe I saw another rendition of Sara here at Daryl's house by another singer and it was great too a little less funky : I can't seem to find it . I should have saved it to favorites. Anyone know which one I'm referring to?

[rubyred0039]

@dunbarrn maybe the episode with Smokey Robinson? They did Sara together...

[tew8197]

2:40 He's gotta be thinking:  "I just died and went to heaven!"

[CrazyDad13]

Monte sounds awesome on this tune...this is a beautiful version....

[mann8942]

so sorry.....this is not music...this is magic on the making...

tks x 1000 for posting !

[lonesalcornbug]

this song sounds lovely.i love tom wolk dearly and i think when the time comes that monte montgomery would fit in

[MrRekinsky]

just Great!!!

[Starlitblond]

oh I still love this so much!

[olu143]

This collab was meant to be! =)

[boxguruhawaii]

This guy can Blow him and darryl is good

[Starlitblond]

T bone is greatly missed... he sure doesn't look like he feels good there. I don't know what he died from, but I sure do miss him.. I always loved his work.

[Starlitblond]

oh god this is great.. I wish I was there..

[Indifference07]

His guitar style reminds of Acoustic Alchemy. Love it!

[GuitarMike1]

Awesome!!!

[SONGABUNDANCE128]

Ridiculous how great this is!!!!!

[jembone]

Sickest version ever!!

[helloman1976]

I get goose bumps from this video...the sickest

[MsTeacherp]

Holy cow that's great!!

[mikebtko]

Wow, best cover, there really never was in a rush to get through such a beautiful song... Very smooth and soulful...

[frenzy9]

boy is bad

[bluegrassrle]

Love it...

[MsMoviestar1]

GREAT SONG LOVE ALL THE GUITAR PLAYING

[applewhiteroad]

i could have sworn i saw this dude do sara smiles at some canyon lake parties, and many years later to see the great daryl hall ask monte if hes gonna sing,,, good stuff!!!! really enjoyed this team up!

[eppeone]

My fiancee, who sadly is no longer with us, absolutely loved Monte... But was not a big fan of this song... She would always head for the ladies room when he played this... lol..

I miss you , baby, and I'm sorry but I really like this song... Rest in peace, baby..

[janalexah]

@eppeone This made me smile when I read it :0)

[BIGSOULMAN1]

Stunning version but I think Daryl toils to hit the high notes these days and he's the first to admit it, but 10/10 to Monte for a great vocal

[BIGSOULMAN1]

Stunning version but I think Daryl toils to hit the high notes these days, but 10/10 to Monte for a great vocal

[usamericanz]

I love how Monte's face lights up when he hears the harmonies kick in...like he's been waiting to hear them forever, lol...Monte, you are Austin's favorite son, and you continue to do us proud. Rock on!

[kippyedwards]

amazing...........

[50BJONES]

Miss my man T BONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ronah62]

Backing vocals gives me goosebumps...

[cheebateam]

Amazing guitarist doesn't say enough....

[CheleinSF]

this collaboration is absolutely brilliant.

[sweetbilly]

My god that sounds bloody fantastic!!! Almost better than the original.... Monte's guitar has a tone all itself, I've "RARELY" heard a guitar with a tone that bloody rich and I've played for almost 25 years now. Like Willie Nelsons guitar the older they get the better they seem to sound...

[usamericanz]

@sweetbilly, if you haven't already, you MUST watch Monte's videos and check out his music. Monte is from my home town, Austin, Texas, and I've often wondered - along with the rest of Austin - why Monte isn't playing larger venues. He's an acoustic guitar phenom...and I feel spoiled that I get to go watch him at local pubs here in Austin on a regular basis. So help us spread the word....his talent should be shared with the rest of the world! :)

[tinman5680]

@usamericanz Thanks to youtube i discovered this guy... amazing talent!!! I am so pissed i missed him in fairfield ct. COME BACK Monte!!!!

[racesity]

THIS IS BAD TO THE BONE......

[wilvan]

Absolutely beautiful. Stunning.

[racesity]

FREAKIN EXCELLENT......DARRYL APPRECIATES MONTY LIKE THAT AND VICE VERSA.

[iso387]

The Best song in Montes Performance ever!!!! Bravo from Bosnia Hercegovina!!!

[TheRaybass]

Is that Elliot Lewis on keyboards ??

[GibsonHummingbird]

Daryl in his 60's OUTSTANDING!

[JosBIGnightout]

Wow ! Glad that you guys found eachother ! Absolutely brilliant ! Continue ...!

[tylerbryantlover]

My science teacher is a really good friend of monte's so i always get his good/bad news, i love it (:

[bombshell81175]

This is a wonderful blend of beautiful people and talent!! My favorite part is when Monte smiles at Daryl......you can see the excitement!!! Awesome!!!

[TheLONZO1]

Monte I love you man !!!

[groovemon]

I met T-Bone at a gig in AZ. What a great player and person. RIP. Great song and Monte playing with Daryl Hall, So cool.

[dogmanofdenstroude1]

Does it realy get any better than this ? truly tallented people. just makes me feel great when i watch this video. Monte; what an awe inspiring guitarist. The whole thing FANTASTIC.

[ohhellmaybe]

Crazy chord at 1:57!

[firehehe]

Monte's style compliments this song so well. What a fantastic collaboration. And RIP T-Bone, you are missed.

[SexySadieTX]

RIP TBone

[roj1969]

Huge loss :(

[kellinonu]

@roj1969 whoa what do u mean huge loss? now going to google to see what's up w/Mont.

[roj1969]

@kellinonu , Monte is very well. As for the deceased T-Bone

[helloman1976]

@SexySadieTX He was an incredible person and amazing guitarist and his love of music really showed through, he was amazing to watch.

[roojunk]

@SexySadieTX Never heard T Bone on the 6 string, sounded great.

[rlouie]

T Bone Wolk passed away this weekend folks.............thats the guy between Darryl and Monte..................RIP T Bone

[dmboda]

awesome

[SuddenSparkles]

I think Monte Montgomery has the best vibe of all the guests on LFDH so far... he is smooth and sweet like caramel.

[RcUniverseGuy]

why does his guitar sound so awesome!

[martinaxman]

practice ;-) this is an excellent clip!

[khaldoun21]

geil

[dannyd1572]

Very, very cool of Daryl Hall to do that. He made Monte's dream come true and in the process made us all happy to see this neat collaboration. Great job to both of them. Oh, and by looking at their eyes I'm guessing copious amounts of green were shared.

[jakeizlove]

Still one of the sweetest songs ever!! I like his singing/playing but just don't feel a song that great needs much (if any) embellishment.

[hush2088]

Sooperb btw, poetry in motion.

[GreenDaveDefoeSt]

So... Daryl Hall invites you over & happily coerces you to sing Sara. Basically so he can hear & see you sing it & play it. Soul - Super Bad.

[gotmonkeyfinger]

F,en Great!!!!!!!!!!

[mikejam2]

A Great rendition. Monte is a great musician. And I cannot blame him for playing small places. It's actually more satisfying to have an intimate gathering where the music is much more appreciated. Good for him, he is great.

[francinabela]

te amoo!!

[TChalla90210]

This has got to be one of most touching versions of this song. Beautiful. This is why music was invented . . . .

[TacoEatinCarlos]

Monte Montgomery got nothing on Ricky Martin's version.

In Mexico, we'd call this version P-O-B-R-E

[montefromagatka]

you yourself are poor and sick (p-o-b-r-e)

[TacoEatinCarlos]

Come to Mexico CIty and I"ll run you over in my el camino with mis hombres in the back on our way to paint some stores

fuckkin punta

[RcUniverseGuy]

yup sounds like a mexican to me

[roj1969]

A u nas w Polsce mówi się na takiego gościa jak ty żałosny lub B_I_E_D_N_Y kretyn

[snidelywhiplash]

Ricky who?

[sfstew]

Callete, pendejo.

[yonoerasi]

@TacoEatinCarlos

eres un pendejo...en Mexico a esto lo llamamos sublime...

[coffee489]

All I can say is ( G-R-E-A-T ) 5*****`s

[jenabejam]

tears!

[flytommy1]

One of the most beautiful renditions of this song. And believe me I am a Daryl Hall addict. I have listened to most of the covers of Sara Smile. Bravo!! Your guitar skills are fantastic Monte and you have a very soulful voice., and Daryl, what can I say?! You are my favorite. Pure soul.  Love it, love it!!! Patti

[usamericanz]

it just gives me such great joy to see the world finally waking up to what has been Austin's best kept secret...Monte Montgomery. I've seen him dozens of time over the last 15 years or so playing little crappy bars around town, and every time I wondered why he wasn't a bigger name. Maybe the Daryl's house gig will finally get him the recognition he deserves....rock on, Monte! You make Texas proud.

[flytommy1]

I hope so. Monte is great, I am from NY, Long Island, and I would def go to see Monte. What a fantastic musician, and a soulful voice. I hope, as you do, that LFDH gives Monte the break or opportunity he deserves!! Patti Go Texas, I lived there for awhile many moons ago in San Antonio. Loved it!!

[usamericanz]

tommy, monte tours constantly - he just rarely plays any venue larger than a bar.  if you go to his website you can see where he'll be playing...i'm sure he'll be in or near new york at some point. you can buy CD's from his site, too.

[flytommy1]

Thank you so much usamericanz, I will be sure to see him if he comes to NY. flytommy1 (Patti)

[Dokwok]

Roj,

Monte will be know Everywhere people have ears

[Setivo]

but most of them cant use them to tell the difference between good music, like sara, or bad music, like most of the mainstream shit around there.

5 stars to the video.

[zorozing]

I simply can not believe how pure Monte's notes are. So amazing....

[badbassjd]

Damn, this is good!

[D15Fingers]

To think YouTube brought these two awesome musicians together is inspiring. For Monte, I'm sure it blew his mind that Daryl extended the invite to jam. This is what it's all about. Bringing Greatness from all reaches, together.

[lebaronlx]

I'm pretty sure its a show on TLC or one of those channels. Not youtube.

[roj1969]

I do not have TLC or one those chanels .

I am from Poland :) .

Monte not known in Poland

[RankAndFileGuy]

Oj, może niezbyt znany, ale doceniany ogromnie wśród wybranych polaków. :) hahah

[roj1969]

Pięknie :) , dzięki za komentarz , miłego słuchania...

[D15Fingers]

Daryl produces directly from his home. Go to the link in the description to checkout many more jam sessions. He stated that he was forwarded a link to Monte's YouTube cover of Sarah; this being the reason he invited Monte to his studio.

IMOA, networks such as TLC, MTV, or AOL could not produce a jam session anywhere near this quality...

This is pure...

[delazzuro]

it dont get any better than this!!
