“Streets of Baltimore” originally performed by Bobby Bare covered here by Molly Tuttle and the Golden Highway during an Encore performance at Baltimore Soundstage!
This song was written by Tompall Glaser and Harlan Howard in 1966. Yay mentioning who covered it but please remember who wrote it. Awesome song! Also Emmy Lou Harris did a great cover as did I think Hazel Dickens maybe with Alice Gerard?
One of my all time favorite tunes! It touches on a lot of topics that were part of bringing my family out of Appalachia. Some didn’t make it and some came another 45 minutes north to the mason dixon line to a little town of Delta to work in the blue slate quarries and green marble quarries. They had to go where the work was ya know.
Lovely to see these young people doing this, and what GREAT MUSICIANS They are..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻🌞⭐️🌞⭐️🌞⭐️🌞⭐️❤️ Bless them all and their Mothers and Father’s..❤️❤️🌞⭐️👍🏻
You can see that the whole band had a lot of fun doing this great tune, not in their usual set list. And they kill the instrumental that follows… the fiddle and mando - wow!
This is awesome thanks for posting but you seem to imply this is a Bobby Bare song, dude, this is a Gram Parsons song...she's paying tribute to Gram, the greatest to ever do what these young kids are going for, Cosmic American Music...
Parsons may well have done a good job with it, but Bare did it first (and, arguably, best). In any case, it's really a Harlan Howard song, in that he wrote it (in collaboration with Tompall Glaser).
Thanks for sharing Greetings from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪 Molly been on our Radar since she was knee height to a grasshopper She come a long way I can remember the Bobby Bare version Which was magnificent This is groovy In a grateful dead Gerry kind of way Which I can dig. You guys are real tight musically talking your own language which is beautiful..
The post instrumental jam sounds like Bill Monroe's Uncle Pen. This group has not forgotten their roots. Molly's guitar playing definitely influenced by Maybelline Carter's style known as the "scratch".
This ‘Molly’ performance is best described as air pollution. Totalitarian states around the globe might like it, they could play it to torture their political prisoners. Best version of this excellent composition remains Tompall Glaser’s own cut with Chuck & Jim which is the original recording and has all the verses. Distant runner-up is Bobby Bare’s version on RCA Victor.
Many comment deletions on this post. If you don’t like censorship please join us who fight it by boycotting posters like this group and their advertisers. And don’t forget a big thumbs down on all their posts from now on.
