These young men are so unpretentious and modest about their talent and hard work. Best guitar and vocals I've heard in a long time. Restores my faith in young talent. Imagine vocals with no pitch perfect device or singing over a laryngectomy box. No effects on guitar absolutely perfect.
I've heard many so called country celebrities perform this mournful song. But, none even come close to you guys. Perfect harmonies and the arpeggios are just so clean so as not to out sound the rhythm. Bravo gentlemen well done.
Absolutely amazing and mesmerizing. You guys are truly special. The guitar playing superb and vocals well, Carson let me tell you, soothes like honey. Great job fellas. I’m 56 and when I grow up, I want to be like you guys.
My mom passed away three years ago. I used to love to listen to her play the piano and sing this song. You two brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for posting this, you helped me recall a beautiful and special memory of the person I adored most in this world.
Wow! Going over UA-cam's versions of this song, I happened upon two young guys. I'm 70 and was not prepared to be impressed. I guess you can at least show old dogs new tricks. Terrific controlled lyrics, harmony, and great guitar playing, reminding me a little of Doc Watson's crispness. Kudos to you both!
There is nothing Josh can’t play and there is no style of singing that he can’t do. He and everyone that joins him has talent rolling out of their ears! 👍👍👍👍
Well now I can be absolutely honest with myself and admit that as recently turned senior citizen (that’s 50yo In Oz) i can say goodbye to my old favourite loud, can’t hear myself think, too noise to drive to, Rock classics and settle into the soothing sounds of my Other Favourites, to be able to hear and also watch artistry in the voice of Carson with the harmonies and the detaching fingers of Josh is something pretty bloody special to my senses, safe travels guys. Say hi to Reina n Toni 4 me.
My dad use to sing this song when I was growing up. It's been 19 years since he passed away from cancer and listening to this makes me miss him. Wish he was here to be able to hear what a great job you guys have done! Thank you for covering this song.
Same here.. My dad passed about 25years ago. I grew up with him play on the most incredible sounding '52 Gibson J-50 that sounded(didn't know it then!) These guys play several that my dad played and sang when I was growing up. this was one of his fav's
That was a perfect good ol' sad country song. Superb playing, vocals and harmonies. You guys are starting to feel like family. I love you both, and feel like your my own boys. Don't know why, but I'm awful darned proud of you both. You are each something special, and another something special together.
Josh I saw you last night in London. Fantastic - the best musician playing in the WORST venue. So sorry!!! Can't wait until you comeback and play a proper venue like the Union Chapel. Bring Carson next time! Thank you - you were brilliant.
Hi Josh, I was there last night in Amsterdam and was very happy to be able to see and hear you live together with Reina and Toni. Carson I am counting on you also next time. Thank you for your musical Happiness.
Perhaps in a generation and certainly within a century, a single genius appears whose range and passion for the creative work stands far above the rest. I am glad to have lived long enough to witness just such a creative talent. One translation of your name in Hebrew is ‘God Will Save’. Indeed your talent saves us all from our darker selves. Shalom
First guy singing:. Great phrasing my dude. Excellent Harmony, flawless picking. Just fucking excellent. In a world of talentless hacks being promoted to cultural icons, you guys restore hope.
Nathan Robbin -- Well said, and I second it all. How amazing that these boyhood friends (like S&G?) _were_ friends, and that both were driven to do the work (not to mention their having such talent) to get this good.
My dad was one heck of a singer, his guitar was 52-3 Gibson J-50. This was one of the songs he often sang and played. He's been gone over 20 years now ( I'm 56) but i sure do miss him, and his music. You guys have no idea how you good really are! Always remember though, the memories you get, and those you leave behind will mean more than any amount of $. Keep playing and singing, but most of all, have fun !
I've always loved this song, specifically the cut The Band did on Big Pink. I just wanted to take a second to let you guys know that this video is what convinced me to finally learn it and add it to my repertoire. Thanks!
This is the first song that my father learned start to finish, and he learned it for me. I can now sing it start to finish, but anyway this is Flawless
Always exciting to get a Josh notification! More so when Josh and Carson team up. Soooo good, guys! Great job! Not my "other" favorites...my "main" favorites!
Just marvelous guys and the resurrected guitars add a wonderful old fashioned tonal vibe to your performances. Bravo and a standing ovation from the Flatiron District in the heart of NYC
Take it from an older musician, you guys have something precious and rare. As you get older you'll look back and be grateful to have found each other. I hope to hear more from you two in the future.
Thanks Guys...The Phone has been ringing a lot lately. Great Job and hope to hear more. You make such awesome sounds with your music. Thanks again to" Ginger" and" Morris" they sounded like an orchestra!
My dad passed about 25years ago. I grew up with him play on the most incredible sounding '52 Gibson J-50 that sounded(didn't know it then!) These guys play several that my dad played and sang when I was growing up. this was one of his fav's
Not sure where these youngsters get their songs but I am 67 and listened to my uncle sing and play this song when I was a youngster. Good job boys! I love listening to you.
Hey guys...I just heard this song for the first time and absolutely love it. I think I have a new favorite that I listen to several times a day. I’m really really looking forward to seeing you here in Dallas on May 24. George Hewell
Thanks for recording the best version of this classic song I've heard. Too many other interpretations ignore the gravity of the narrative. Yours is haunting and heartbreaking.
These two and their army of excellent musicians seems to be endless. All approximately the same age. How did you people find each other? However, thanks so much for sharing your talent.
Superb. A long forgotten classic. You guys nailed it as usual. Hearing overtones of how The Band did it way back when. Although the song has been around before that... (I could be wrong about that.... I didn't google it).. I hope you can get near the Chicago area at some point. I would take a day trip to see you. Thanks.
Josh's solo after first verse is outstanding. Nothing forced, just blends perfectly
Man... Carson.. that voice deserve to be more worldwide known
So true!
I’m from Germany an damn this music is better than the music in the top 100 😍
These young men are so unpretentious and modest about their talent and hard work. Best guitar and vocals I've heard in a long time. Restores my faith in young talent. Imagine vocals with no pitch perfect device or singing over a laryngectomy box. No effects on guitar absolutely perfect.
76 now!
been singing the song for 60 years Finally!!!!!!! I now know how it should be done
Greetings from the South coast of South Africa
I've heard many so called country celebrities perform this mournful song. But, none even come close to you guys. Perfect harmonies and the arpeggios are just so clean so as not to out sound the rhythm. Bravo gentlemen well done.
I don't say this lightly. This might be the best rendition of this song I've heard.
Great cover. Listen to Johnny Cash and Joni Mitchell. Makes me cry
Is this the only version you've heard? Lol. Plenty of versions out there much better.
Nothing beats the og with Lefty but this is really good.
@@Taosravenfan and The Band
Jerry Garcia on the Pizza Tapes is a good one
Absolutely amazing and mesmerizing. You guys are truly special. The guitar playing superb and vocals well, Carson let me tell you, soothes like honey. Great job fellas. I’m 56 and when I grow up, I want to be like you guys.
J 😂😊🙏🎸
Josh & Carson -- Yeah. What he said.
I'm 72 and when I grow up, I want to play and sing them, too.
My mom passed away three years ago. I used to love to listen to her play the piano and sing this song. You two brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for posting this, you helped me recall a beautiful and special memory of the person I adored most in this world.
Check out Rick Danko
I can relate, except no instrument and it was my dad

Your talent is matched only by your selection of songs to cover
My dad use to sing this song when I was growing up. It's been 19 years since he passed away from cancer and listening to this makes me miss him. Wish he was here to be able to hear what a great job you guys have done! Thank you for covering this song.
That is very sweet. I'm sure your dad would be proud of you.
fins fan13 sing this song to my one year old she loves it l.
WOW... He was definitely ahead of his time!!
Wow!!

I've been performing this for 40 years! Warms my heart to see young'uns doing it justice 😍😍😍😍
One of my favorite songs. Never has it been done better than this. Thank you.
I like it that you guys don’t feel the need to “blast a tonsil across the room” to get a song across. Great stuff.
You throwing shades at Adele?
Gave a like to this comment because I have to keep going across the room to pick up my tonsil's 😂
I cannot listen to this enough.
My goodness, how did I miss this one? Over a year old, and I just am hearing it. I've loved this song forever!
This has happened to me so many times since discovering Josh!
The only channel I have notifications on for never disappoints. :•)
Damn right! :0)
same here!
LOL. Me too. This is the only channel I give permission to send me notifications.
Amen! Me too
That was a perfect good ol' sad country song. Superb playing, vocals and harmonies. You guys are starting to feel like family. I love you both, and feel like your my own boys. Don't know why, but I'm awful darned proud of you both. You are each something special, and another something special together.
I wish Danny, and Marijohn were still around to hear this. They would’ve loved it.
Phenomenal Lefty Frizzell cover!
Why this guy doesn't have the biggest UA-cam channel is beyond me....
Josh I saw you last night in London. Fantastic - the best musician playing in the WORST venue. So sorry!!! Can't wait until you comeback and play a proper venue like the Union Chapel. Bring Carson next time! Thank you - you were brilliant.
What I love about your performances is that you all look like your having the time of your life.
It's their ability to cover any venue or era of music that seperates them from all comers.
Excellent. I don't think I've heard this song since before the turn of the century. Carson, this shows off your voice so well. Nice work gents.
Hi Josh, I was there last night in Amsterdam and was very happy to be able to see and hear you live together with Reina and Toni. Carson I am counting on you also next time. Thank you for your musical Happiness.
Liked after 20 seconds! Bravo!
It's hard to find more purity than this, Thank you.
The harmonies, the guitar tones - Just beautiful.

I am glad to have lived long enough to witness just such a creative talent. One translation of your name in Hebrew is ‘God Will Save’. Indeed your talent saves us all from our darker selves. Shalom
Nailed it. Sad songs say so much.
"One Take Wonder" baby :) ... how can you guys just be that good? ... thanks!!!
Great treatment of a great song.
The ending, after all that relaxation... was perfect
I like that smile of appreciation from Carson for that tasty little bend from Josh at 2:27. Well done guys!
Just BEAUTIFUL guys!!!
First guy singing:. Great phrasing my dude. Excellent Harmony, flawless picking. Just fucking excellent. In a world of talentless hacks being promoted to cultural icons, you guys restore hope.
Nathan Robbin -- Well said, and I second it all. How amazing that these boyhood friends (like S&G?) _were_ friends, and that both were driven to do the work (not to mention their having such talent) to get this good.
That first guy is Carson McKee. Check him out on UA-cam!
The one guy is a Buddy Holly lookalike and I mean that as a compliment!
Second guy josh ❤
The man in black would be proud of the job you guys done with that song. Absolutely out of this world. Well done👍
listened to a dozen famous singers doing this, wasn't crazy about any, then here comes y'all - best one yet!
Guitars yes, we know....but what wonderful voices....😍 waiting for you in Italy....✌
Just a very simple "Thank You for Your Music"! ... again and again inspiring ...
My dad was one heck of a singer, his guitar was 52-3 Gibson J-50. This was one of the songs he often sang and played. He's been gone over 20 years now ( I'm 56) but i sure do miss him, and his music. You guys have no idea how you good really are! Always remember though, the memories you get, and those you leave behind will mean more than any amount of $. Keep playing and singing, but most of all, have fun !
You’re both awesome but Carsons vocal ability is seriously world class.
Josh's intsrumental capabilities _does_ fit the highest standards, too. Only the cooperation level of these two amazing guys exceeds that.
I'm so glad I found this channel. It quenches the thirst of my soul. Glad to see music is still alive.
Oh man, this is some folk gold. Thank you for this.
You guys are simply the best! Don't know how else to put it.
Excellent..great to hear to fine musicians in harmony together
My God what talent. Reminds me of when me and my buddy used to sing and pick together. I miss it
Man i can't believe what i'm hearing, so glad i wasn't dreaming! Josh n Carson, every song/video by u 2 guys just captures my soul. Well done guys!
Chills. Literal chills guys.
My girlfriend and I are driving three hours to see you in Ottawa, could not be more excited! You guys are superb.
Went out for breakfast & came home to this! Thank you! Excellent. But wow, 2 hours this has been up & already over 6K views.
beautiful
You guys are without peers! That was simply outstanding!
By far...the best version that’s ever graced my eardrums. Thanks
Long black veil is one of my favorite songs to play.
One of the greatest songs ever written, and you have done it justice. Great job
I am speechless and don't know what to say other than thank you for taking the time to rebuild one of the greatest songs
Brilliant, Lefty and Johnny would have been very impressed.
I’m 55 y/o and normally stuck in a classic rock musical rut, but I really dig the music you guys make.
This was recorded by "The Band" in case you dig them.
Frederico Vilar originally by lefty frizzell
@@fredericovilar7289 And by Mick Jagger with the Chieftians. Great version.
@@sbearly Oh, and Joan Baez in 64 I think it was.
Dave Matthews also has a good version of this
I've always loved this song, specifically the cut The Band did on Big Pink. I just wanted to take a second to let you guys know that this video is what convinced me to finally learn it and add it to my repertoire. Thanks!
The best version from this song ever ! great job guys and good luck for your tour
I'm a fan forever, absolutely brilliant 10/10
Thank Carson and Josh,
You guys are great ! 👍
This is the first song that my father learned start to finish, and he learned it for me. I can now sing it start to finish, but anyway this is Flawless
those 18 dislikes are from the deaf people physically unable to hear this baeautiful sound...
You boys got the gift, ain't no doubt about it !!!!! Keepin the old songs alive, great job guys !!!!!!!
great to see you back boys......brilliant, yet again. thanks.
Blunt in hand, The Other Favorites playing on max. Excellent piece brothers.
Always exciting to get a Josh notification! More so when Josh and Carson team up. Soooo good, guys! Great job! Not my "other" favorites...my "main" favorites!
Beautiful! Listened more than ten times already 💕
Just marvelous guys and the resurrected guitars add a wonderful old fashioned tonal vibe to your performances. Bravo and a standing ovation from the Flatiron District in the heart of NYC
Those harmony guitars sound wonderful.
I am ten videos deep, and haven't see Josh play the same instrument twice.
You cannot have too many guitars. < Woody Brison
good luck ! hahaha
Take it from an older musician, you guys have something precious and rare. As you get older you'll look back and be grateful to have found each other. I hope to hear more from you two in the future.
😎🤘 Great job boys !!
👍😃 CLEAN !! 😉👌
Thanks Guys...The Phone has been ringing a lot lately. Great Job and hope to hear more. You make such awesome sounds with your music. Thanks again to" Ginger" and" Morris" they sounded like an orchestra!

Spectacular fellas. The more I listen, the more I appreciate your immense talents and joy in making music.
The Other Favourites are back again!
tom rabban
You always introduce to me such great music. Thanks for that :)
Hauntingly brilliant, I keep coming back
Absolutely stunning. This is a gift.
Love you guys. You give me hope for the future of music.
Not sure where these youngsters get their songs but I am 67 and listened to my uncle sing and play this song when I was a youngster. Good job boys! I love listening to you.
Hey guys...I just heard this song for the first time and absolutely love it. I think I have a new favorite that I listen to several times a day. I’m really really looking forward to seeing you here in Dallas on May 24.

I wish I had friends like them to play with... they are amazing!!
Love that song, VERY well done guys..
These 2 always make my day much better.
Wonderful to hear this great classic.
It was great to see Josh in Stuttgart. Hope to see you in August with Carson.
Superb. A long forgotten classic. You guys nailed it as usual. Hearing overtones of how The Band did it way back when. Although the song has been around before that...

NOPE. NOT FORGOTTEN, JUST HAVE TO SEARCH FOR IT! GORGEOUS COVER.
One of my favorite songs!
Excellent job boys !
This is an old one. You’ve got guts to take it on. ‘She walks these hills!’ Indeed. And nobody knows but me.
Is it healthy that I've listened to this like 1000 times in the past 24 hours?
Your harmonies are so fucking soulful that I want to cry.
Beautifully done there boys a pleasure to listen to 👍👏😊
So glad yall did this song . Its one of my favorites! No pun intended, coming from my Original Favorites, not the Other Favorites.
Would have loved to hear that one with the banjo. Nice work!
