Maria McKee, Van Dyke Parks & Stevie Ray Vaughan - Troubled Waters + Sailin' Shoes [1989]

- Опубліковано 15 бер 2016
- [Mono] Performances from an eclectic USTV program, which featured numerous performers gathered together, allowing them to perform individually, and together, for the first time in some cases.
This is such an occasion, with Maria McKee performing with Van Dyke Parks and the house band, which includes Hiram Bullock on guitar; Don Alias on percussion; Philippe Saisse on keyboards; Tom Barney on bass; and Omar Hakim on drums for the first number, and then Stevie Ray Vaughan steps in with the entire band to lend some tones to the Little Feat number, "Sailin' Shoes".
I believe that is Rosemary Butler and Lani Groves who appears everywhere on network television broadcasts from this period of time, on backing vocals.
Hal Willner was the creative genius behind this special program.
RIP David. RIP Stevie. Could the rest of the artists in this video please stay alive for awhile, especially Maria, who I hope lives to be a healthy 124.
I have never understood, why she never went further. She is so talented. Amazing voice..👏👏
There were a handful of artists who I would pigeonhole as Outlaw Christian Artists in late 80s and early 90s....Johnny Cash, Bono, T-Bone Burnett, Tonio K, Bruce Cockburn, Sam Phillips, Julie/Buddy Miller, Mark Heard, Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch/David Rawlings, Van Morrison, Victoria Williams, Alison Krauss, Daniel Lanois, Maria Mckee, ...basically musicians who expressed Faith in their music, but seemed to be left of center and who were not part of or who left the CCM Gospel Music Industry. I think most of these artists never got the respect they deserved.
Van Dyke Parks & SRV on stage together, my life is now complete.
Maria. Voice of an angel. I was a teenager when I first heard her incredible voice with Lone Justice. I’m 58 now and she still takes my breath away when I hear her sing. This is fantastic footage. Thanks for posting. Best wishes from Scotland 🏴
You're most welcome! Glad you enjoyed the clip enough to post a note of appreciation. Thank you!!
Absolutely stopped in my tracks.
Her voice is right on for this music. Push the like button for shelter.
When will this woman get the bloody recognition she deserves???
never, she scares the boys to much.....
Dave Bakewell Nope, never. "They" tried to make her what they wanted and she got away. Shameful.
no..boys love her.
I’ve liked her since the 80’s, but her most accessible music was written by Tom Petty. On her own her shit is kinda strange. I love it.
@@SanFranciscoFatboy no she scares the girls more.
the multitalented maria McKee at her very best and 28 years later still maintains this high standard
Favorite female vocalist of all time. Saw Lone Justice open for U2 in Philly and have love her ever since. I still listen to her just about daily! 💙💙💙
I saw that same tour and Lone Justice was nearly booed offstage. It was embarassing to see.
Wow. Just snooping around and here is one of my all time favorite singers, Maria McKee, and my all time favorite guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughn! Wow! 1st time ever seeing this amazing performance, awesome!!
Maria’s voice stands out when everyone is singing
Can't believe I just found this! MM and SRV on the stage. It doesn't get any better.
From David Sanborn's "Night Music"... A terrific show while it lasted. He kept getting all sorts of top talent and having them play way out of genre...With terrific results.
Sanborn said the sponsors didn't know what "demographic" the show was aimed at. Musicians!
Mark Werner this was the GREATEST show! Missed it, taped them all on VHS lol
@@kimrileymusic Totally! It came on at around 2AM in Houston and I taped it religiously... where most talk shows would have one tune, Night Music would be 50% amazing music. I once mentioned to a guy that I loved it, and he immediately asked if I was a musician. He said they'd all come home from their gigs and flip it on to unwind.
That voice has yet to be matched. Amazing.
Wow, that’s badass. Neither Whitney Houston nor Adele could claim to have Stevie as a side man thank you
Tracy Nelson had Hendrix and Santana 1969 Northridge Rock Fest
So smokin, love this...She was born to be a performer, naked versatility.
That was nuts. Maria Mckee is SUCH a star !! and Stevie Ray ! Damn he was just the coolest dude ever. I remember that night he died, I cried so hard when I heard the news. 2 of the best . Maria is still a badass and one of a kind just doin her thing.
Stunning singer ,since her Lone Justice days! What a great concert- miss Lowell George!
Still love the Robert Palmer version.
Holy freaking Cow! This is a National treasure!
What a UA-cam gem!!!
I had never heard this side of Maria before. Very impressive.
Can't believe I have never seen this before. Maria! GOOD GOD!! & SRV too...way so cool!
I know! Why the hell didn't I know about this???
Sunday Night Live.....SRV....Hiram....Maria....Great stuff
I would love to hear Maria do an album of jazz tunes .
coulda been my baby's mama! i adore this lady! saw her three times with Lone Justice by the bay! fine all I can say superfine!
O yeah! The joy of Little Feat. Saw (what is left of ) Feat two weeks ago. Sailin' Shoes was a highlight with 2000 of us singing along. Good party. Great to see everyone on this stage having fun too.
Night Music was one of the best music shows on television. I had them on VHS back then. I’d love to see them again. Thank you for posting.
My pleasure! They are most definitely the bar with which any live music show should be compared to, IMHO. Thank you for taking the time to post a note of appreciation :)
What? Did the Internet think it could get away with hiding this forever? Wow! (Thanks for posting this gem, BTW!)
You're quite welcome. Happy you enjoyed the clip and said so ;)
I just found this, and nearly fell outta my chair! Maria McKee & SRV doing a Little Feat tune? Jesus. Lowell George would have loved this.
Hear! Hear!
Maria McKee and Stevie Ray Vaughn - made my day! The first tune displays her awesome vocal talents but Put On Your Sailing Shoes is just delightful. Thanks
*Vaughan (the sure fire way to tell a casual listener from a hard core SRV fan - the proper spelling of his last name).
Daniel Fronc - oh yes that is soooo important for an appreciation of SRV’s music. Not
what a voice and what a perfomance from all including stevie ray wow...
should be much more famous
Her rendition of "Breathe" from the same show is stunning as well.
That's David Sanborn on sax, I believe. And yes, Maria McKee has not been appropriately lauded as the American great that she certainly is, but neither was her brother, Brian McLean, and his iconoclastic band fronted by Arthur Lee, Love.
One of my favorite voices of all times.
I didn't know she could do shit like this. I mean the sultry bluesy thing. Amazing! Love her Elvis mouth too.
Dang, Rosemary and Maria together! 💫
That’s the way you do it!
great detective work finding this :) props to you for adding this to utube.stevie ray w/ maria mackee, wow....say no more
Glad you enjoyed the clip, and took the time to say so. Definitely a special program, and performance!
Brilliant!
So good. Such a voice. So neglected.
awesome line up great tune .
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks man, this is awesome. Loved Maria since first hearing about her via the Old Grey Whistle Test (BBC tv show in the mid-80s) but have never managed to see her live ... yet. I did see Stevie a couple of times and they remain to this day among the most amazing gigs I've been too. To see him backing up one of my favourite singers is just great and look at the smile on her face at the end ... wonderful.
Glad you enjoyed it, and took the time to say so. Definitely a choice performance from the gathered musicians. Much appreciated!
Brilliant
This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
superbe!
🤩
This great...just capital!
Excellent editing! The camera seemed to find Maria at just the right moments.
i didn't know david letterman could play sax so well!
... wow
😊😊😊
Oh, Maria, where art thou?
Sheeeeesh
Mamma Mia.......
How is this possible?!@
That phrase from 1:12 to 1:24 without taking a breath.
The Maria bit.
Damn
1989!
@Mister Pumpkinhead - hi, small world! You were telling me about a Maria Sweden gig only a day or two ago, via ScottishTeeVee. This is brilliant btw.
I have practically the whole series on vhs somewhere
I guess you couldn't sing "cocaine tree" on TV. Sad to note that there are no living guitarists in this clip.
Is that Robert Palmer playing the keyboard in the background? Of course, he wrote "Sailin' Shoes."
Seriously doubt that Robert Palmer is in the line-up playing keyboards, although there are quite a number of personnel for this performance. Also, don't want to burst your bubble, but the song "Sailin' Shoes" was co-composed by the band leader in this clip, Van Dyke Parks, and Lowell George, of the band Little Feat. Little Feat was the basic band backing Robert Palmer, when he recorded the song on his lp, "Sneakin' Sally Through the Alley".
look closer. although, he didn't write the song, it is robert palmer on keys. he's sitting upstage behind the singers.
Awsemo
Elvis has nothing on her ability to snarl. She is a force of nature.
Is that Chaka Khan as a back up singer?
No
Lani Groves, she's a top tier 70s 80s back singer. The female solo on You are the Sunshine of My Life before Stevie comes in.
White girl sings on Jackson Browne Stay a Little Bit Longer. Rosemary Butler
Nice cover of Little Feat but Stevie Ray Vaughn sticks out like a sore thumb...
I wish there was a way to remove that godawful soprano sax from this performance. I just want to hear Maria sing over the piano.
''These One's Who'll Continue''
There are artists who'll wrest us up & place us into themselves & into their works.
These are to wrest us up even beyond their appointed rests in peace.
Give obligement for ''These One's Who'll Continue''...
but even more for the very author of them all & ''His✝ Justifiable ⚖Return🪃''
