Darrell Scott embodies 'bard' and 'true-bador'. His music is a balanced diet for the soul...for me, little grace notes convey the weight of glory in this video -> his fingers closing soft phrases...and the open visage of the piper - everyone else is deep in reflection, as the song almost commands. Still it is so good to see someone who's also open to the others around the campfire, burning here for 12 years as I type. What a gift the Transatlantic Sessions have been - grace, gracias, grazie to gcbfolk and to God.
Darrell Scott is an artist that must be shared with people we love. If you found him today, like I did, please dont let his music die in your ears. Spread it all around. This is one of the most beautiful songs ever made.
What a discovery. I've believed I "know" (am familiar with and have listened da LOT) music yet listening to Darrell Scott (the beauty of each woven word , the simplisity in the music itself) I had tears. The loving , the longing, the yearning(s) felt with every passage is difficult to comprehent. THANK YOU for your muisc.
Don't recognize all the musician, but Aly Bain on fiddle and of course Jerry Douglas on dobro. Great song. Great video. First heard this song on Pandora by Emily Smith. Very nice cover.
This is just a wonderful song beautifully recorded live! and with a great mix of musicians and traditional Irish instruments, when is Darrell going to play Ireland?
Lyrics [ Darrell Scott - The Open Door ] Capo: 3 Chord: G Key: Bb Well, it's fare thee well, my true love. A song is in the air. I hear the west a-callin' to see what's for me there. With the sun I'm leavin'. I'll be Montana bound. Ain't no use in grievin'. I'll show you what I've found, Show you what I've found. Some folks have it easy. At least that's how it seems. Reach up and pick an apple, reach up and find a dream. Some travel in the darkness and rest upon the shade. Some wrestle with their demons and face them unafraid. We argue for our better selves. We only ask for more. We take the mirror from the shelf and find the open door, Find the open door. I love you with a fever. I love you with the past. My heart is a keeper as long as it will last. As long as it will last, I'll tell you what I know. We walk this road together and we walk this road alone.

What a magic harmony between these musicians ... touching ...
I cant see anyone hearing him and not liking his work he is an awesome man.
This song is so beautiful. Especially love that last verse, followed by that fiddle! Dart to the heart! Well done! ☮️☘️🎻
Thank God for discovery. I can't believe this man's been making music all of these years and I am just now enjoying it. What an amazing artist.
Darrell Scott is amazing. His cover of Paul Simon's American Tune is an anthem for our time, and his picking is seamless. One of the great ones .
And the song he wrote as he tried to discover the pathways of an ancestor: 'You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive'! ua-cam.com/video/ZtSLMGc4VSA/v-deo.html

I truely have fallen in loce with his music. Never heard the man till yesterday
Really love this version. I would love to play with a group like that!
my Scott-Irish blood flow like the harmony of this beautiful song, wow just blown away to this great music. thanks for sharing... COA ...
I'm so sad I never heard of this man before... what an amazing guy, W-O-W!
I agree with 'bernardimusic'...I'm new to this world of music and am loving every minute here!
I can't stop listening to this. I'm an artist who surfs a tune over and over while doing what I do... wish I could show you what I came up with.
There's so much talent out there that we never heard of, I found him today only and I am so enjoying this. :o)

+gcbfolk One of my favorites! Thank you so much! Hallo from Berlin!
If you haven't enjoyed his collaborations with Tim O'Brien yet, check out their album "Real Time." They have another coming out soon together.
Love
