Gillian Welch at Old Hickory, 1997 - Full Show 

Am I nuts or is Gillian the most under appreciated songwriter of her generation?

Awesome! Definitely two of the best harmonizing voices to ever play music together in my opinion! This chick is so damn talented it’s insane! Thank y’all for all the great music Gillian! Touches deep in the soul for sure!!! GodBless!!!

This is a national treasure.

These two are every bit as accomplished and extraordinary as the Beatles. Their covers are awesome and their originals, extraordinary.

yeah.............it's hard to find words for how this music warms my heart and lifts my spirit. I appreciate this duo more and more over time.

I'm completely in love with this woman

Can’t believe I’ve only now found this team. Awesomeness !! Now one of my absolute favorites of of folk music. Working at making my Artists Books and Print Making. Wow wow wow. I’m in Heaven. 🌹🥰

Barroom Girls 0:13:00 Paper Wings 1:03:25 Only One & Only 1:17:05 Acony Bell 1:28:00 Orphan Girl 1:36:40 (For fans of their first album!)

These musicians are “ top shelf”. Always a joy to see and hear them.

I have worshipped these two for over 25 years. I have all the CD's and a poster autographed by Gillian...

I first heard this duo in 1996 on "Progressive Torch and Twang", a weekly program on MSU student radio 89FM. The song was "Orphan Girl". That was all it took. I became a fan. I never tire of the purity of their harmony and the texture created by Gillian's strumming and David's creative melodic picking. Two voices; two instruments; pure music.

31:46 It's so fun to hear their harmonies with such clarity. Intricate. Delicate. Perfect. I love these two.

Thanks for uploading

Great recording, true to the place and represents the artists well in that setting.

Superb bless you all …. Brilliant voice 👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️

Not enough is said about Dave. The guy is a virtuoso.

been said before.. But they are bringing the roots back again to music , reall music and they are not even trying... its just the way it should be ... and its what is missing in the music industry today , Just showes what two people can do, believing in what they do .. Its a powerfull thing that you just can`t fake ,, by being reall and feeling each others love in pure music... and we get the rewards ... WOW ! Thank you .. the fires not burnt out yet !!!!!!

Wow. These musicians are some of the world's best. Gods! Because of their relative obscurity I got to hear them in Phoenix in the Orpheum last year. One of my best experiences in my life. PHX never gets good music. Except for them.

Can't Get more Americana ! than this, !!!

Back in 1996 I wrote a letter to Gillian and said they should record a song a-capella. Glad to hear it 24 years later on this Bright Morning Stars. (She did respond back then, on type written page: "Maybe there is some a-capella in our future.")

The night came undone like a party dress and fell at her feet in beautiful mess. It's visual and superb isn't it?

One of the finest shows i ever attended

I must have listened to this about 15 times in the past 3 months since discovering it. It is truly amazing

I don’t care that she’s 32 years older than me, I love her and would marry her.

I love the way they participate in and contribute to the community of great musical tradition by playing other artists' work of the past as well as their own fine songs.

She is beyond all the rest

They are brilliant 👏

Saw them in Cheraw, SC, back in 1996. Still have my ticket.

awesome! thank you!

best version of Tennessee Stud I have ever heard...

i cry and feel

How can we thank you for that? Perfection

Thanks for the song list Darth!

So good.

Amazing songwriter and singer!!!

I live in germany and i can't remember, when i heart the voice of Gillian for the first time. I guess, it happens couse of the movie of the coen brothers (oh brother,...).Thince than, she is in my mind like Bob. I brought all office records including this three records in a box. If they play in europe one time, I will go, don't matter where. Little funny Story near by: A couple of years ago, i played Gillian for breakfast music in our little place at bottle beach. I dutch girl came in and couldn't beleave, that someone here has know her. Of course, we were friends after talking about Gillian. I think, you could here at RU-vid. Her artname Gitta van Ridden (not quote shure). After that Meeting i startet to read her lyrics more intensiv. I love, how she and dave touches my heart and soul. They are best

I have a crush on gillian welch.

So much sincerity in her eyes

53:00 ♥️

1:47:36 white freight liner blues

As a songwriter she is on a frozen rope to the stature of Joni Mitchell.

😂😊

Love TownesTownes, Hate this song. Downer. But, I can Listen to you/ this.

30:35 one more dollar

Is this on an album? I thought I had all her stuff...

I do appreciate being able to listen to this on RU-vid, but does Gillian & Dave approve? Anyone ask them? Hasn't anyone heard "Everything Is Free" ? Has the message of that song escaped you? Jesus Christ.
