No, the guy on the martin guitar is the multitalented and great Carl Jackson. He's originally from the state of Mississippi. But he lives in Nashville,TN where he writes songs, does studio work, produces , and plays just about every string unstrument you can think of ! The man is a living legend in the world of Bluegrass and Country Music !! Unknown to the masses, but well known and respected by the people who are in that world !! lol...
Yes, and I love it when Vince comes in first singing those high notes and then the bottom line in the chorus. The Louvins had a classic 2-part sound, but I like the addition of his third part to this mix.
yes it does! when your loved ones die, they remain forever in your heart, even though, they are not here physically anymore. i love this song! have a great evening!
A fond farewell to Charlie Louvin who wrote this song and who passed today. Without him much of Emmylou's sound wouldn't have had a crucial formative influence.
So great, my favorite female country singer by far, oh then let's just throw in Vince Gill on mandolin and save his incredible voice for the three part harmony, , , not sure who the others are but they too sound so nice. Thank you for this!
i love this song so very much. it reminds me of me and my first husband. he loved this song. we were married 21 years. he is deceased. i married again in 1992, but he died in 2003 of heart problems. i've been through widowhood twice. i'm only 57, but i wontever give up. love to all. love, 54 susieq
EmmyLou loved Ira and Charlie Louvins' songs and sang many, she's an awesome singer , and an even more awesome harmonizer ,and why not, she learned her harmony style from the greatest there ever were, Ira and Charlie Louvin
@54susieq My dad loved this song. I was driving today flipping through the radio stations and heard this song. My dad has passed away as well but it still took me back to the good times when he was around.
You've got Herb Pedersen singing harmony, gypsy jazz guitarist Jon Jorgenson on Mandolin and Vince Gill stepping in for the three part harmony. Classic video, thanks!
Yea, the vocal harmonies are stellar. I used to hear this back in the 80s, but now am aware that it is a Louvin Bros. tune (Ira). Would somebody please tell me who (the guitar player) is singing the main harmony with Emmy Lou?, his accompaniment is profound--
Nope - the guy singin the highest notes is on the left,with the clean-shaven face....Vince Gill. The 4-part harmony at the end is beautifully executed.
