@OBrienGuitars Thanks for your reply - I only regret misspelling 'hereby'. . .!

Now, time to peruse your other videos. . .

Man I sure hope that guitar case was empty (2:40) - or at least there was a crappy guitbox in it!!

@davey4557 You just said it was a bolt-on (2:55)!

Thanks for your reply - I guess I took the 'Moody/80's' comment to infer that this arrangement was archaic and thus . . . well, inferior? I'm sure that's not what you meant, so my apologies, if needed. I think overall the arrangement was seeking to appeal to young and old alike (which is certainl...

PS: Oops, I meant BACKpacker. So solly (that's my Kim Jong-Un impression).

@SmileyV07 How 'bout it?! They say Kim Jong-il's rice had to be inspected ONE GRAIN AT A TIME!! If there were any nicks or any other anamolies, in the garbage it went.

Great song! At first glimpse, I see a young Tom Rush up there.

Friend, is Johnny Depp a type of Christ to you? It's absolutely senseless to post his pics to this song.

@kathryncolantonio The text is by Agee - music by Lauridsen.

First, to the two posters asking of the tuning, I think it's DADGAD - I don't hear the third being played. Second, I had never heard of this man until @10 minutes ago!,

when I was looking for a song - I heard it last night on the radio but never got an ID afterward, so I Googled what lyrics I re...

A coupla questions to ask, maybe you can help: one, it looks like he's playing a Gibson, but the headstock is taped up - was this some kind of legal issue? And two, when exactly did he stop using fingerpicks? I know he took time off in the mid-80s to rehab his hand, so was this video shot afterwa...

HEYAWRIGHT!!! Happy to see these clips posted - I myself had been doing a burn that this recording was never reissued (I had a feeling Leo was taking the 'over-my-dead-body' approach). I first heard of this record in a '73 issue of Guitar Player Magazine - they called it a watershed album - bough...

I'm assuming these two best buds are in Africa - and I've read that only Somalia suffered significant loss in the tsunami. Where were they stranded to begin with?

@MisterZemuu The only one that comes to mind is 'Doubletree', by Jeffrey Foucault - but it's a totally different style anyhoo.

@UruguayanLion I would agree - it falls under the umbrella of Folk/Roots/Americana. . .or as John Fahey would classify it, Primitive American.

Actually, the name of this song is "Phil Brown".

Wonder if John got any grief for the, uh. . . 'r-word'... schtick. . .(1:40)

Just couldn't help but notice. . . Loudon Wainwright, Stuart McLean - twin sons of different mothers. . .uncanny. . .

Keelo's one of my favorites, to be sure, and no disrespect here by any means, but he has the HUGEST!neck I've EVER seen on a musician! Don't get me wrong, it's supercool! I mean, if I ran into him in a dark alley and -I- had the gun, -I'D- run like hell!!! Did he do any amateur wrestling or lifti...

Television never made me cry but I sure wanted to beat the transistors out of one!

@Psihedelicul Personally, he reminds me of a young Orson Welles.

It's been said that every composer leaves a distinct musical 'fingerprint' - if that's the case, then Neil must have a million hands hangin' off of him, 'cuz virtually none of his songs sound alike; each one goes off in its own direction - no redundancy. That's what I appreciate about his music. ...

"An' Jesus Christ/died for nuthin', I suppose. . ."

@MissNadineBakker . . .or rather, Taylor Swift reminds you of Lori McKenna?(!)

Wutduhhek. . . (0:28) the JumboTron's got him reversed - how does that happen?1

heh heh. . . Ed looks like Boy George. . .!

@ricopel You're right, you know dat?! I stand corrected, wut duh heck?! I coulda swore it was '77. My taste in rock music was starting to shift from heavy metal to new wave, etc., around that time, so I guess it was all a blur those few years. Thanks for correcting me!

She's right, you know dat? When you're in a confined public setting, you at least put your phone on 'vibrate', and you turn your Bluetooth off and put it your pocket. It's simple courtesy. Heck, my mom used to throw me and my brother outta the house every summer morning with our baseball gear and...

@hunkydorybadger Maybe he's got Marty Feldman eyeballs behind those shades. . .!

Heh! What a co-inkadink . . . came across this by chance and I see this was 50 years ago TODAY!
