Sufjan Stevens, José Gonzalez and Nick Drake are the best things that happened in my life.

Such a delivery. Such a cadence. Such a groove. Amazing performance Jose. Thank you KEXP.

José, te queremos en Argentina!!! hace años que no puedo dejar de fantasear con que vuelvas a Mendoza. Sigo cruzando los dedos por que llegue esa gira por latinoamerica y que pases por acá, seguí tus raices menducas y veni a tomarte unos mates con nosotros!!

Estoy trabajando y escuchando a José Gonzáles desde muy lejos..... Bolivia. Gracias por tu música. Working and hearing José Gonzáles from far away.... Bolivia, Thank you for your lovely music!

I've seen him live. It was such a special, fun, wonderful experience!

"Head On" is mind boggling amazing!!!

Cant wait to listen to this again TOMORROW MORNING right when I wake up yeeeeeahhh

I discovered the song 'El Invento' two days ago and it has been on a quiet, calming loop in my head ever since. Not sure why I just woke up in the middle of the night, but this song immediately started playing in my head. And in listening to various live versions of it, I found KEXP Home! I wasn't aware of the 'Home' versions. Thank you to all the awesome people who help make them happen. Long live KEXP y que viva la música siempre. Saludos desde Canadá.

Right on! 🥰

swing is the best!!

Right on.

he’s still just so incredible 😌

An expressive and impressive journey, performed with marvelous sound engineering, Kalle Gustafsson Jerneholm at Svenska Grammofonstudion! Thank you José González and KEXP!

The voice hooked me at the first song, then the playing kept me

what legend! a gift to humanity. indeed we rest on the shoulders of giants

He's so delightful!

His peaceful mind is contagious.

Me encanta José González. Gracias KEXP 💙

Finally! A genuine songsmith and performer reminiscent of the times when music was ART, not business. May you live long and succeed. Am a fan now.

He warns my soul!

Although I love the album however I do love this live acoustic version more.

I'm so thankful for Walter Mitty for introducing me to Junip, through which I eventually found Jose's music. It's one of my favourite movies too.

Wow what a "Pleasent Surprise" @ 4:17am on a Tuesday🌃. I get out of a long hot 🧂🛁 make a 🫖 of tea & find this delightful fellow José & his 🎶 in my recommendations. Nice one RU-vid & KEXP...I toast my ☕ to this new musical discovery this September morning...."prima🙂"

❤

I keep returning to this performance, and especially por El Invento, and I think it has to be the fact that it feels so authentically rooted in his... inspirations and upbringing? I forget where he spoke on it, but he mentioned that he grew up listening to artists like Mercedes Sosa and Silvio Rodriguez, and in El Invento, you can absolutely feel the inspiration bleeding into the guitar, from how he plays it to the lyrics that bounce off. It's been something so admirable and amazing to hear, especially as a latino who got into his music looooong ago when he had Far Away in Red Dead. Sigo volviendo a esta actuación, y especialmente por El Invento, y creo que tiene que ser el hecho de que se siente tan auténticamente basada en sus... ¿inspiraciones y educación? No recuerdo dónde habló al respecto, pero mencionó que creció escuchando a artistas como Mercedes Sosa y Silvio Rodríguez, y en El Invento, puedes sentir absolutamente la inspiración sangrando en la guitarra, desde cómo la toca hasta la letra que rebotar. Ha sido algo tan admirable y sorprendente de escuchar, especialmente como un latino que se metió en su música hace mucho tiempo cuando tuvo Far Away en Red Dead.

Since “the secret life of walter mitty” was announced in stores, i followed and will do it, jeá, for ever Jose 🔮 😉 . You got so many rythm’s in your music ! - Really ! 🙌

estoy haciendo arroz con leche y disfrutando este maravilloso performance!! genial

I love Jose. He has an amazing spirit that comes out both in his music and when he speaks.

Saludos desde Mendoza, Argentina

So consistently amazing...

I would like to see him play Far Away, with that song I met him and he marked me

Te amo Jose ❤

he's the loveliest!

This is humbly mastering your craft- I just love him and his work. :) ✊🏽🎶

Thank you for this José and KEXP, I really needed that Hello from France

Zé, o Brasil te ama!

N I C E

José has such distinct style of strumming the guitar. As distinguishable as his angelic voice.

He's so amazing. I needed this today. Jose's voice certainly lifts my spirit. Thanks, KEXP! Much love from San Francisco, CA

I loved this guy's From the Basement performance, it's nice to see he's getting appreciation here too.

He’s just wonderful!

EL próximo disco todo en español José!!! dejáte de pavadas

Great session, thanks for that!

his junip stuff rules

I love almost everything about it. I love the sweet happy positivity but when he said "forget your miracles" and "forget your god" it just twinged it with bitterness.

right on

Why do I suddenly have an urge to buy some desert boots

빨리빨리~~

Such a great session....gracias Jose!

Truely, a genius

Interesante y muy melodico.

Nice, Invento. Melodic. Should do more Spanish.

In El Invento he sounds a little bit like Silvio Rodríguez🙌🙌🙌

Swing: I call this, progresive Folk. Wow

Is José, a buddhist? The choice of words in his lyrics gives me an inkling of that.

Anybody know the musician Manuel Garcia from Chile?

00:38

I love it, right on! 🤡

Less talk. More music.

I'd loved to hear the red dead redemption song he made

I swear that first song was 20 minutes long.

El Invento gives me some Slivio Rodriguez vibes

Wait, both moms?

fishsongs?

How convenient to know that JG has been double jabbed! Now we can all enjoy our newly acquired freedom now don't we?!?

First

Americans, PLEASE learn to pronounce a common name like José or Juan. NO, it is NOT 'hosay' and 'one'! LISTEN on Forvo. Not learning ANY foreign language does not exempt you from respecting PEOPLE. Right on, absolutely. Right on, hosay.
