I was at this concert with a stellar lineup, but David Lindley stole the show in my eyes!! 🌟 RIP David Lindley ~ I miss you so much ❤ No one in the world like you.
@@timothylewis2450 My different POV….is we were so lucky this master of all guitars played live and we of different generations were soooo lucky to see him live or even listen to his recordings! I was very lucky to see him with various other performers several times . And even have him sign a couple of my LPs. May David Lindley’s music touch the ears and hearts of those who haven’t heard or seen him yet! Big thanks to those who post his live performances…in those he still lives on..and on!
Rest in peace, you wonderful human being! I feel so fortunate to have seen El Rayo X in a bar on a college campus in the 80's. They blew the roof off the joint, obviously. To this day, hearing Mercury Blues live is one of the concert-going highlights of my life.
Saw them in a small venue in Austin. Standing in front. Late 1985 as I recall. Their Mercury Blues had an opening dialogue by Lindley at the start with a great, greasy improv on the slide. Fantastic.
Cindy Schneider- Someday I wanna find out how Jackson & David bumped into each other...other than the fact that it was The Master’s plan- then a blessing for those of us listening thru so many years.
@@jackrambler3262 I have an an answer to your question that is somewhat vague, so I’ll give Cindy Schneider a couple of days to come forward and answer because she probably knows a hell of a lot more than I do.

@Jack Rambler and Cindy S. Jackson explains how he first met David Lindley and what he first felt when he heard him play alone in his dressing room. As I said , it is vague , without any details . It is contained in the video "Farther On” from the documentary “Going Home”, in Jackson’s words. Jackson explains that a friend (of his) brought Lindley to his dressing room and asked if he could play for him. At that point, Jackson explains what he felt for the first time upon hearing him. Sorry, Cindy S. , but I put Jack R. first because he was the one who first asked the question about how did they just bumped into each other. I originally had you first and I apologize for reconsidering . “Reconsider Me”. ua-cam.com/video/4TbQHF3Y9oo/v-deo.html
Dave, our MAGICAL MUSICAL MUNCHKIN, has gone on ahead damn it. Driving that Mercury '49 up an down the streets of gold and and tuning-up some heavenly harp with those amazing God given fingers. Thanks for the visit Mr. David. We are blessed and.....
When I was a child, my parents had a '53 Mercury Deluxe with V-8 with manual overdrive. My Dad ran the Hell out of that car; He also ran a little SHINE in that capacious trunk.
Since no one else has made a comment within a year , I’m guessin’ I’m the only one out there who knows what “ SHINE’ means. I’m from Kentucky . At one time everyone was in fear of the revenuer , a government agent , during Prohibition. They were searching for stills to destroy them. Stills were all copper pots used to distill corn into 100 proof alcohol . When I was about 10 , on a trip to western KY , my father pointed out smoke or steam that was coming off of a mountain side and telling me about moonshiners.At that time you didn’t have to do it by the light of the moon. When the heat was on about making illegal whisky , I just think it was done under the light of the moon . Moonshine was still being made in the 1960’s because of the many “dry” counties in Kentucky which still exist today. When I was a teenager , I was shown a very small house in West Virginia devoid of any vegetation , but to which hundreds of pounds of sugar (instead of corn) were delivered weekly to make moonshine . To this day , August 27 , 2019 , you can still buy 100 proof moonshine in a liquor store , in Lexington Kentucky . Now it is considered part of our heritage . I’m not sure , but I think it may have a cult following . It’s everywhere , but you have to know that it is just grain alcohol , which is also readily availably in any liguor store , at least in Lexington KY.
I saw them all together in concert at the Jones Beach Theater, Long Island NY. I don't remember what year it was, but it was the best concert I've ever seen. All my favorite artists. What a night!
#1 most badass drum performance I've ever seen/heard. Sounds like a Cosmic locomotive comin' down the tracks straight out of Heaven to take us all home. All aboard!!! Kisses. Arthur. Peace
This event at Red Rocks took place on September 12 of 1999. I saw these same musicians at the Gorge in eastern Washington a few weeks earlier on August 25th, 1999. It was quite a show!
I saw them on this tour in 99 in Nampa, ID at The Idaho Center Amphitheater. It was hands-down, one of the best live shows I've ever seen! This was one of their encores. Talk about leaving a concert on a high note...
I saw these guys on this tour, which was in 1999 which you probably know but thank you SO much for posting this! The show I saw at The Idaho Center in Nampa, Idaho was amazing! Good memories..
Thanks. It takes one very musically unaware pre teen "expert" to decipher the level of "ratedness" . "I've never heard of them, they must be very underrated."
Nope! It's Kevin McCormick. He's played bass with everybody: Nils Lofgren, Jackson Browne, CSN, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, John Mayall, Melissa Etheridge, Robben Ford, David Lindley, and many others.

In The UK We Are Convinced that David Lindley is The Messiah of Steel Guitar.. The man is An Absolute Legend.
I bow down to the genius of this man, indeed I do!
Lindley is steel guitar.
He absolutely is! Seen him several times on his own
Here in California USA we feel the same way!
Yeah, that's accurate.
I was at this concert with a stellar lineup, but David Lindley stole the show in my eyes!! 🌟 RIP David Lindley ~ I miss you so much ❤ No one in the world like you.
It's his song, why should he steal it?
Rest in Rock, David Lindley! What an amazing talent.
So sad. Legendary.

@@bakokat6982 Well said.
El Rayo x is one of my favourite recordings
And very greasy
I am proud to say that I'm in this audience! Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado! 1999

There will never be another. RIP. We got to meet him. Great dude.
Those double knit sports coats gave David special powers.
Nope. It was the mutton chop sideburns!!!!
ALL HAIL The KING of Polyester.........RIP David....You are Missed the Belly Up will never be the same.
❤❤❤ repose en Paix David..👍
What a fabulous line-up Lindley, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt and Shawn Colvin hard to beat !
And at Red Rocks yeah
I saw this tour... Still to this day in my top 5 best shows. Bruce Hornsby was also on the bill.
And Bruce Hornsby!
It doesn't get any better than this!
RIP David, cruise that Mercury into the great beyond
boy, I don't know how you could go wrong with that lineup. Goosebumps.
When Bonnie steps in with her slide to answer David's steel. Absolute goosebumps!
I got to see them live in Avila Beach...wonderful experience in a small venue surrounded by beer and ocean.
As good as it gets. What a talent this man was. RIP David Lindley.
...and that's why we love rock 'n roll!!
"The wonder that is Lindley!" That's right!

RIP David. Your legacy will live on forever. Was lucky to hear this live at Great Woods in Manfield, MA on this same tour.
David Lindley is the best steel player I've ever seen or heard. His vocals are un-matchable...he's really good.
Dave, our MAGICAL MUSICAL MUNCHKIN, has gone on ahead damn it. Driving that Mercury '49 up an down the streets of gold and and tuning-up some heavenly harp with those amazing God given fingers. Thanks for the visit Mr. David. We are blessed and.....
Very well said!
Another great version of Mercury Blues!! Stomper!! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🤘
Can't say enough about how much I love this! Just WOW!
Gonna miss this great guy...
You are decidedly in good company. Sometimes, I still can't believe he's no longer among us poor deprived Earthers...
Holy crap! Lindley is a god, and Bonnie Raitt is among the best slide players...ever!
Love this performance...it's just got so much energy...the drum beat is killer and Shawn Colvin with Bonnie Raiit!!! Yowza!
David Lindley was so awesome what a talent
RIP David Lindley !!
I went to this tour as a huge Shawn Colvin fan. But David Lindley man
Fly high, David 🎼♥️
The Maestro with his talented backing Band
RIP David Lindley. 😢
Browne and Lindley saved me from those who tried to robot me! Early on...
Now that is a band..............
Saw the Running on Empty tour. Lindley stole the show.
Billy Gibbons wrote Sharp Dressed man about David Lindley.That's absolutely true ,or it should be,and these days,that's all that counts.
A whole bunch of my favorite players, and a song by the great American rural blues singer and guitar player K. C. Douglas. Love it. Fuzzy
I got to see this! I saw them back-to-back night up at Red Rocks. This was the second night. Awesome!👏🏼
How in the @#$& did I miss this show? That song would have been worth the price of admission alone.
It was.
Red Rocks has to rate as one of the nation's best dance halls ~ awesome place for music
This crew kicks assess !!!
Saw this never before ! Thanks !
lovin señor Lindley... the rest of em are pretty good too... Lindley makes em shine ❤️🌟♥️
rock on y'all
sounds absolutely great over here at my house...
muchas gracias
❤️🙏❤️
✌️❤️✌️
Never seen this before, I like Bonnie Raitt doing a Dave impression.
The greatest guitar 🎸🎸🎸 riffs and the most deadly guitar hero up here in NBC Canada country
Not seen this before? Brilliant. Big shout for monster drumming.
When I was a child, my parents had a '53 Mercury Deluxe with V-8 with manual overdrive. My Dad ran the Hell out of that car; He also ran a little SHINE in that capacious trunk.
my folks had a similar one and I got my license and got to drive it around town...twin glasspacks.

Add Waddy Watchel to the line up. Saw this tour in 1999 in Concord, CA. It was, of course, fantastic!
when i came home from nam my buddy had a primer ed 49 merc we did some cruising 1967 and its been going down hill ever since
Augh. So good. So damn good.
the best steelguitar ever!.....
Holy Cats, what a Lineup!
No words can be enough!!
#1 most badass drum performance I've ever seen/heard. Sounds like a Cosmic locomotive comin' down the tracks straight out of Heaven to take us all home. All aboard!!! Kisses. Arthur. Peace
Wally Ingram, if I remember correctly. He and Lindley did a couple of albums together and toured as a duo. Fantastic.
Our David. We miss you so much. I cannot place this if Rosanne in room . She will break down. .
I am so sorry for your loss. ❤
This event at Red Rocks took place on September 12 of 1999. I saw these same musicians at the Gorge in eastern Washington a few weeks earlier on August 25th, 1999. It was quite a show!
Most badass drum beat EVER!!!!!
Red Rocks!!! The Very best Ledgends (musicians)! Love
Here's to David.
R.I.P David❤
Colvin surprised the hell out of me...I've never seen her rock like that...always saw her as a folk artist.
kitano0 if you look on UA-cam you can find Shawn Colvin as a member of Richard Thompson's band, that would surprise you too I bet. In a real good way!
@@goodun6081 We saw her open for Thompson in the mid-'90s. I'm glad to see that they're touring together now.
I saw this show in Santa Barbara. I'd have to say it was one of my top ten ever.
I met Jackson Browne in Gaviota, CA. Also had a crush on Bonnie Raitt!
@@SamLopezI we all had a crush on Bonnie Raitt.
Super concert
The Prince of Polyester!
Saw this show at the Santa Barbara Bowl. Epic! Highlight: Bonnie and Shawn dancing on Bruce's grand piano. Lindley wasn't bad either!
Hey, me too!
I saw this tour at the infamous Merriweather Post Pavilion in '99
Priceless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn that was good
Damn it..."David Lindley is a bad man lol...he's a fucking awesome steel guitar man!*****
I saw them on this tour in 99 in Nampa, ID at The Idaho Center Amphitheater. It was hands-down, one of the best live shows I've ever seen! This was one of their encores. Talk about leaving a concert on a high note...
Thank you for making my day.
Damn, this is Red Rocks just outside town!! I missed it!!
Talk about a superstar lineup!!!
Rockin' at The Rocks.
I saw these guys on this tour, which was in 1999 which you probably know but thank you SO much for posting this! The show I saw at The Idaho Center in Nampa, Idaho was amazing! Good memories..
Goose bumps
thought he was going to take that thing even higher.. so great
Flawless
I don’t know if it ever was recorded but…John Trudell , added a verse to Mercury Blues, can’t remember it verbatim but it was all J. T.
Those were the days...
Listening (again, still) in 2023. Still needs some Papa John Creach rock violin.
And Bonnie is pretty good too!
Mike Haines- Yeah, Bonnie’s Always Great...
When the drummer laying down such a solid beat with the hit of his TomTom
Classic
In the Great Tradition of Comments, someone please tell me which of these brilliant players is "underrated".
Thanks. It takes one very musically unaware pre teen "expert" to decipher the level of "ratedness" . "I've never heard of them, they must be very underrated."
El Rayo X .
immenso
Does anyone know who all the backing musicians were that night?
I mean, fuckin WOW!!!!
Forget Clapton, Lindley is god!
Clapton who?
@@mikebarat1950 😀
And at Red Rock.
Rock on!
I had da record & posted wayaway for the tshirt too
I hope I NEVER have to meet any of the 9 people who DON'T LIKE this (08/24/21
Bonnie has that slow slide style like Lowell. Absolutely fucking rips.
btw: How cute is Shawn Colvin? It's like asking how big the multiverse is. Kisses
Is this available on a dvd?
In Red Rocks....twist twist
Ummmm..........I'm speechless.
I am 99% sure I was at this show! unless this lineup played Red Rocks more than once....
❤no lies mates
Looks like Tommy Shannon on bass (from Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble).
Nope! It's Kevin McCormick. He's played bass with everybody: Nils Lofgren, Jackson Browne, CSN, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, John Mayall, Melissa Etheridge, Robben Ford, David Lindley, and many others.
"The wonder that is Lindley!". Yes, yes he most certainly is! One dolt actually downvoted this. WTF ?
