Steve is one of the few artists who keeps music humble, just like him and his style.
Steve Earle is an American treasure. Boy, appreciate him while he's still here. Go see him/enjoy him live. NO one like him.
Yes he's a hella musician and not a bad actor 👍he's in a HBO series called Treme' set in New Orleans post Katatrina about the tough times for the musicians and everything💔lotta sh!ty stuff happened but oh well had a five year break then the deepwater Horizon oil gusher into the Gulf man we need to try to treat where we live better💔🤔🙏🏼✌️
I want to! My parents introduced me to his music when I was about four yo. They got to see him before he went to jail dammit
Nothing special here.
Rest easy Gordon Lightfoot. Sitting on the stairs, enjoying a tribute to another lost Legend.
both great storytellers but what does Lightfoot have to do with this page?
@@willduke32 I think he's the dude at 2:35
holy smokes it is!!! wow... @@TonyScarboni
We all need more Steve Earle in this world.
more Steve Earle!! Less Dirty Hipsters
Absolutely!!!
@KesselRunHero I love most of what came after tThe Revolution Starts Now a lot, but yeah I'd say Exit 0 is about my favorite.
Just his music, not his ideas. Hes out of touch with the real world
Indeed
Steve Earle is a musician's musician, a songwriter's songwriter, a producer's producer.......a gentlemen's gentleman......and a fine human being.
... But never satisfied.
He is an incredible song writer. And as he said bands get famous for there great songwriting. And he is. So much that people dont realize that Miranda Lamberts first big hit Kerosene. She ripped off his music. The words to the song she wrote but the music part she ripped off of Steve Earle who didnt realize at the time. Listen to Steve Earl's Feel Alright then listen to Kerosene or the other way around but it's his music even down to the harmonica part. Nobody realized it for a long time. I believe I would be getting some of her money. But Steve Earle has been 1 of my favorite singer, song writer, and the music to go with the all. I can turn on copper head road and never get tired of that, Hillbilly highway, maybe cause I'm a Hillbilly, guitar town, they just go on. Mad props to you Steve and your great skill of writing and playing great songs as always. So good. Seen him in concert when that album came out and was awesome. Check out the songs I just said and you will see its Steve Earles Feel Alright to a tee other than the words. So she got a big boost up the ladder with her first #1 hit without people even realizing its Steve Earles she ripped off. Keep jamming and writing I can never get tired of listening to steve Earle. Thank You Steve for the great songs which made us great memories. 🥁🎼🎶🎶🎵😎🎵
@@tswrench even when everyone else hates it. Hes still awesome.🥁🎼🎵🎶🎵😎
Arkansas Hillbilly Drummer Hell yes Steve Earle is great songwriter and he was good in Treme'🔥🤘✌️
I love his music for many years. This was a great tribute. But he really should watch his politics in a few things. Other than than I've been there his whole career
Steve Earle has informed much of my musical education. I'm drawn to him, his humanity and his ability keep me coming back. Thank You Steve for the gifts you share with people like me!
The camera pan to Gordon Lightfoot in the audience, mouth agape like a floundered Cod fish... tells you where Steve Earle rests with the God's of contemporary folk and rock music. A wonderful memory and tribute to Greg Allman.
Love it!!!
Love it when one great singer/songwriter pays tribute to another whose words, music, and voice we were blessed to witness but are now silenced for eternity. Thanks Steve.
Thank you Steve Earle. Your music is always welcome.
Anyone even notice Gordon Lightfoot watching and smiling? Bloody Legend Mate! *edit **2:33*
Thanks for pointing that out very cool.
@@christophermuise5067 Always Welcome Dear Friend. Be Well.
Repping CANADA. Ontario 519 = RIGHT HERE
Thx Skip. Because of his age now I did not recognize him.
@@starshiptrooper7670 always looking out for you. 😁👍
This is probably the version , best cover and best fan sitting on the stairs checking out probably one of the best artist of all time . Bring back the basement George , love ya mam .
I love this cause He did this in his own Steve Earle way with that Steve Earle sound.
Discovered him late, but getting into Steve Earle now. The great thing about music is that it is never too late.
Check out the clips from Heartworn Highways ua-cam.com/video/WHE1dM4hYCw/v-deo.html
Better late then never... Please start with his first album.
This is totally awesome. A fitting tribute to Gregg Allman. May Gregg Allman rest in peace.
Dwayne Wladyka I imagine Gregg would be one of many rockers who would hate the thought of resting in peace!
Gregg is a Nark! Look it 👆
And rip brother Duane
Class act, Steve Earl. This is lovely and sentimental to watch. Enjoyed his comments at the beginning.
thanks for being my super big fan. I believe you will never stop listening to my songs please kindly drop your email address on here Just to keep in touch with me more.
😂 Class act??! The man's a full on d***
@@lowellcalavera6045 Hey, how would I know? Sorry I don’t read up on the Wikipedia backgrounder on all rando, D-List celebs before I post about one specific video.
my first true love was a steve earle song. guitar town lit a fire in me that still burns to this day, and every night I open my set, and close my set with covers of steve and dukes, with some of my own stories filling in the space between. my first, best, and most important influence as a songwriter. thank you so much for being you, and doing what you do. I hope you continue to travel and write, and perform for as long as you still find joy, or release or sanctuary in it. peace be unto you. all the best,
fsd
rip jte gone far too soon
The smile on Gordon Lightfoot priceless!
.... GREAT VERSION OF A GREAT SONG ... REGARDS FROM F R E E DERRY, NORTHERN IRELAND ... GOD BLESS ...
It's too bad that some of you don't understand , because you don't know your music history Steve is a living legend and I'm sure that most of the the negative comments are due to age and lack of music appreciation if you just don't get it don't close the door there is a reason if you want to get a better grasp of what its all about check out townes van Zandt, Rodney Crowell, Guy, the east Austin card the Houston kids the West Texas bunch Duane eddy Burch Hancock Joe Ely Doug Sahm
They don't know the music. They should educate themselves before making an opinion.
I thought this was Steve Earle at his roughest and rawest. It takes a special kind of confidence to go into a broadcast environment and just pull a song out of the hat the way he does here. I'm sure he could perform it better in terms of technique but I doubt he'd recapture the spirit of this.
Benjamin s. Jenkins Repectfully I think his music is ok, to me he is like Roger Waters in that I don't care for their political views. I saw Steve Earle at Farm Aid 04 he turned into a political bashing ceremony I spent the money for my tickets to support the American Farmer not to listen to his view on politics.
B E next time you have a thought, hold your breath until it goes away
Benjamin s. Jenkins Youth is wasted on the young, Head north a ways John Prine and the late great. Steve Goodman, I'm guessing Guy Clarke is where you were going?
I am so lucky to share this planet with Steve Earl.
One of the greats, he’s done it hard.
steve Earle got me into music.
beautiful. absolutely beautiful
Nailed it, Steve! Steve is cool in so many ways...
This made the hair on the back of my neck stand up, stunning job Sir.
Steve Earle, that's all you need to say. This song is so, so a classic, never grow old.
Duane's virtuosity on the guitar, his tone and slide work were unique, and Gregg's voice and mastery of the Hamond Organ were well suited for the music they made so famous.
I love'm! First time I saw Steve playin live was back in, I think, either 1979 or 1980 when I was songwriting in Nashville and hanging out with the songwriting subculture. He was playing at the great little dive bar, Springwater. Always one of my mentors and best memories!
Heard this last night on the Strombo show and loved it!!! Was totally looking for this rendition by Earle after on spotify lol
Steve you are great and have great heart...totally inspired by the humility you display and how great you recover during a performance.. your a soul machine dude.
This comment section has some major "Ok Boomer" energy so I'm here to say as a youngin' I love me some Allman Brothers and Steve Earle seems badass.
Steve couldn't had done any better.always loved his style and delivery....R.I.P Greg.....
2 minutes of yammering is made up for by such a beautiful voice of a chain smoking swamp man angel
00:55-1:05 damn right. You don't see this level of honesty in filming too often. Bravo.
Yes it is!! God bless him....a Canadian songwriting legend for sure...
I seen Steve play at the Deni ute muster he was awesome always been a fan of his music from the early 80s as a teen well worth the wait great artist :)
There are lot's of excellent covers of this great song, but I love this raw interpretation by Steve E the best... ignores perfection, rather plumbs the emotional heart of the song.
I think music today is plagued by perfection. People have forgotten the beauty in imperfection, is what really makes a great song pop. Like this rendition of a song has raw emotion in it, it could be sung better but its damn good the way it is.
imo
Earle is one of the good guys.
Love this.
imo
All about the Songs and sure also about Steve Earle who always pays respects in a great lovingly way.
I got chills!! Full on chills!! Great sound!! Keep on keepin on Steve!!
Grew up w copperhead road didn't get to see Steve Earl tilll 1999 when my wife Angel god bless her soul got me tickets for my bday i miss you so much baby
This is really pretty cool.
Thank you Steve Earle for doing this cover.
I honestly have no clue how people are going to shit on Steve, it’s almost like they don’t realize just how old the dude is. He’s hands down one of the best song writers in country music and there was a time when he absolutely was one of the best singers as well. As corny as it sounds Copperhead Road is still one of my favorite songs to this day, it’s a tradition down at the Grizzly Rose in Denver to play it at least once a night.
Hank 3. Im not even that into country, but a hard life makes me like the lyrics.
your 100% right!!!
Same here.
fckn love that song. it was written about the boys on my daddy's side of the FAMILY...true story
Nowt wrong with Copperhead Road but Steve has written better songs.
What this world needs is more musical heritage like Steve and those who came before him.
Thanks to Steve for doing this tribute.
Bruce Cheaney I like your taste in music , also have learned a lot from your videos on leather craft.
From the heart as usual thanks Steve come back to Ireland we'll meet up ..
WDR
Im a trucker and Midnight Rider is everyday and Steve shredding this fine song and made it new.
The legend that is Steve Earle 🌟
That music I grew up with!!!!!!! Never stop!! Awesome U.S.A..!!
Lovely Steve, just lovely:-)
This week I'm listening to nothing but Allman brothers band.....Greggs gone but will never be forgotten....music lives forever
wow what an incredibly beautiful rendition of a classic. steve earle one of the greats. and holy crap what amazing camera work!! whoever put this together needs accolades. whew
The memories and the music! Evocation and celebration - this is not like anything else. Happy tears here. Thank you, always! Steve Earle, Strombo - affection and respect.
Oh my what ever happened to them days Mr Earle! Ten thousand likes auto.
Even my favorite songwriter has a talent for picking great songs.
Steve Earle a legend 👍💯.eric hart from the uk 🇬🇧
Yes, you can see there the Great Gordon Lightfoot enjoing with the Steve Earle cover of midnight rider.
Earle and Lightfoot, two of the biggest!
Super amen to your comments on good songs. Truly true truth. There are still some good songs being written, but not the numbers there used to be.
Country music is probably the least of my favourite genres but I could never deny the talent of Lucinda Williams, Townes Van Zandt, Steve Earle, Joe Ely. There's a point when it's not about genre, it's about sheer talent.
Musicians like Earle n van zandt. Are not "country" musicians.
Story tellers. They are storytellers who happen to play music.
As an example.
27 years ago I knew nothing about van zandt.
Saw him open for cowboy junkies.
Realized very quickly,the junkies where not in his league as entertainers n story tellers.
He held our attention by himself.
He wasn't a great player in any technical way nor was he a great vocalist who's voice soars.
He,Earl, and so many more have no real "genre" .
They live n breath stories attached to music.
Cheers.
So true, I love all those guys, but most country music makes my skin crawl, but I can listen to Townes, Steve Earle, Guy clark, etc. all day
"They live n breath stories attached to music. " That is one of the most apt descriptions of great songwriters I have ever read, or heard.
@@kennethparker1032
Thks
I have my moments.
Artists like Earle can bring that out of people.
@@frankswildyear I could not agree more!
rest in peace, gregg. thanks steve for doing this
Steve's face tells the story of a man who has lived life. I was blessed to see him live in about 89/90 in Manchester, Uk when he was famous for the Copperhead Road LP. Unfortunately i have not seen him live since, but through the wonders of the Interweb I have been catching up on his live performances over the years. Such a talent. and to come across this ...probably my favourite Allman Brothers song ..is another blessing. Though, I first heard Midnight Rider performed by Joe Cocker. Thanks for posting this.
I love the way the video catches the audience expressions as they listen . lots of emotion in that room.
I’m going to see him with
Willies son in a couple
weeks . I will post again .
Really hoping to see , Steve
at his finest .
How was it?
Never got the air play he should have! Absolutely a legend and musical genius
True, but I'd place a small wager the 100 years from now people will Still be playing/singing it.
Agree
Check out Leroy virgil. Hes a hell of a song writer
Hears another singer i found cruzan you tube this mans amazing from the heart ill keep listening.
Same here. August, 2020
Catch up from early man he loves guitar.
Songs never die......
Helluva lot of music coming from one guitar
ole dude pegged that one!!!!! sounded so much like allman touched my soul !!!!!
COPPERHEAD ROAD, that started it for me. 👍✌️
Guitar town started it for me back in 87
Me too
Transcendental blues is such a good song it was done around 99 and is sounded like a grunge song with soul from the early 90’s. If you die without hearing it to fucking bad.
Yes, song writers are the key, buy the players, like you, make us listen to those writers, you put the magic to the lyrics and licks, thank you, I am blessed to have hearing !!!
Cool tribute - rumor is that there's $20.00 tickets available to his show at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake ,IA in late summer.
A legend paying tribute to another legend. 🙌
Great job, saw the Allman Brothers Band at a Warehouse, at Audubon Park, at City Park, and many times more, they were Phenomenal, with Duane at the Helm, they were Phenomenal, when Duane had his accident, the world Lost a Great Player, but Gregg carried on, they were Phenomenal, there Music shall go on Forever ¡😎¡
Jesus. Gordon Lightfoot by the stairs, mouth agape. This song just set my hair on end.
I thought that was him!
I wondered if anyone saw him. I didn't see any more comments about it.
@@little8940 I don't know. But it is him 100%.
I was in Chattanooga last year. Got there late in afternoon, checked in to hotel. Wife and I had dinner. Next morning I went downstairs to lobby to get coffee and kill some time. I picked up the local paper and found out Gordon Lightfoot had given a concert the night before just a few blocks from the hotel. I was sad that I missed it.
well said steve and just as well played. a beautiful tribute to butch and Greg and Dwayne and Berry. sometimes I can't wait to get to heaven to see all the great acts that are gone. the state of rock and roll is truly awful now. rock and roll used to be about rebels sticking it to the man. now they all bow down and kiss the ring of the man. the man killed rock. miss the dead, and Lowell George, and the band...damn..I could go on and on.
Thanks for sharing, Strombo. Awesome cover tune of "Midnight Rider" by Steve Earle minus "The Dukes". Just a straight ahead acoustic guitar performance.
Good job, Steve...
Gimme a call next time in Calgary.
Cheers,
G
Steve Earle is up there with the greatest songwriters and balladeers that ever lived.
I now he been around a long time. Love his music
The ole dude in the back is in his glory .. your never too old to enjoy aw3some music
Steve Earle is a true living legend.
This is epic. Thank you to whoever posted. So many great songs
Earle is a national treasure, too bad most of us dont value talent anymore.
A Good Friend Plays and the world sits up and hears that great song!
Maaaaan I had to learn this song on the spot.... I was playing a cancer benefit for a bunch of bikers.... they had me playin up on an old flatbed trailer and a few of em came up and said HEY... PLAY MIDNITE RIDER!!!! I was gettin my mouth ready to somehow tell these guys I didn't know the song... when about ten more came over and said YEAH!!!!!PLAY MIDNITE RIDER!!!! So.... I learned it out of thin air.... did ok and they didn't kill me.... thanks Greg!!!!!
If you're still alive Steve, I know there's hope. Thanks
If one had done just a fraction of the drugs hard livin n rockin roll that this living legend has done. Myself life long fan of all the greats. And mr earle you are one of them well done
Thank God for someone else that appreciates the song writing and music she has done and still doing. There is alot of haters out there but they just need to show respect to Steve Earle for the great songs and memories he has given. I always tell people that I bet you can remember exactly where you were at the first time you Heard Copper Head Road. I've listened to him before that but I know exactly where I was the first time that i heard that song. And you right they tried to knock him down but he came out of jail and it's like he never missed a beat. Love Steve Earle. And you to Steven for recognizing and getting the fact that he is a living legend and having the respect for the the greats which to me as you no that he's still great. There is alot of haters out there for him but they just don't get it that he is an incredible writer and producer of great music and always has been. Mad respect to you my friend I'm glad someone else gets it. Still partial to Hillbilly Highway, probably cause my ass is a Hillbilly. Down to the mascot for the school I went to are mascot is still and I graduated in 85.. but still the mascot is The Ozark Hillbilles. Even now to this day when they score a TD the mascot shoots and old musket in the air. Have a great 2020 which is still crazy to me. And thanks for giving the respect to the legends that they deserve. 🥁🎼🎶🎶🎵🎵🤝😎
I met Steve at a NA meeting in the mid 90's. He was in bad shape...glad he came out of it alive.
Always loved that song.
Saw 'em (the AB) @ the Charlotte speedway back in '71...?(forgot)....three days of Rock 'n Roll...they played w/Emerson Lake & Palmer and Black Oak Arkansas....I was a soldier then...stationed in Ft Jackson SC
Just Steve. Dig it...
steve earl is one of a kind
one of a kind? Nope...just another liberal prick whose concerts are filled with progressive BS instead of music. I just don't know why these people can't just entertain and shut the front door. The Boss, the Dixie Chicks, etc.
up yer butt, jimmy acorn...
Jimmy Acorn I agree totally
He wouldn't want you as a fan
You are indeed an acorn,my friend!
What an awesome tribute 👏🏻
He is taking us to the “Guitar Town”
You're a huge inspiration to me. Copperhead Road is a classic. The Allman Betts Band The Midnight Rider was written for you it seems by this performance! Rock on Steve!!!
Ive watched this many times and still dont think the audience appreciates this at all
I'm a 55 year young Kiwi (New Zealander) and I had my near-death motorcycle accident on Friday 27 April 1990 when I was 26 - it ultimately resulted in me losing my entire left leg, hip, and left side of my pelvis plus I suffered numerous other internal injuries. I have suffered chronic stump pain (neuromas - groups of nerves) even though there is no stump ever since. I still love motorcycles and can still ride. One of my favorite road movies of all time is 'Easy Rider'. The themes of the movie I can really relate to. However can I please say - that life ain't no free ride, no sir, there is always a price to pay for living, freedom doesn't come for free. It costs to be free. What is the price? What does it cost? We are born to die. And in between we live. I love a quote from Martin Luther King Jr; “If a man hasn’t found something he will die for, he isn’t fit to live.”
Well, I've got to run to keep from hiding
And I'm bound to keep on riding
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gon' let 'em catch me, no
Not gon' let 'em catch the midnight rider
And I don't own the clothes I'm wearing
And the road goes on forever
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gon' let 'em catch me, no
Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
And I've gone by the point of caring
Some old bed I'll soon be sharing
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gon' let 'em catch me, no
Not gon' let 'em catch the midnight rider
No, I'm not gon' let 'em catch me, no
Not gon' let 'em catch the midnight rider
No, I'm not gon' let 'em catch me, no
I'm not gon' let 'em catch the midnight rider
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
Not gon' let 'em catch the midnight rider
Songwriters: Gregg L. Allman / Robert Kim Payne
great song writers are genuine.. wish you would have remained true.
Greg would have absolutely stood up and applauded you for that performance!
I am slowly starting to get into country now, after solely being exposed to radio country for years and being completely turned off by it. Right now Steve earle, neko case, and Richard buckner are my country go-to's. They just sound so raw and completely the opposite of that horrible "country" that plays on the radio
Thank You. You are True from Your Heart and I Appreciate this From You. :)
I agree it's the music that they leave behind that matters been a Steve Earle & Allman Brothers band fan for years and years
Steve Earle is a guy who’s paid his dues.
He’s not an internet rack star. He did a lot of time on the road, playing for folks.
I wanted see him in Kingston Ontario last summer, but missed that show.
Same here man
