The Transatlantic Sessions were an example of what the BBC can be when it tries. Great to see well-known international recording artistes stripped bare of all their glamour, playing and singing with experts traditional folk music and songs Fine series
The intro does not say that it was Aly Bain and Jerry Douglas who put all of this together.
Iris Dement...sigh. I just discovered this gem of a video...I believe 100 of the views are mine. Mary Black is such a wonderful performer.
The Transatlantic Sessions were a perfect antidote to the junk programmes on so many TV channels that are aired these days. If the BEEb would do more ot this I wouldn't mind paying the yearly licence. Great stuff!
A room full of musical magic ... this is what you get.
It took me al long time not to stay in love with Emmylou Harris after her brilliant performances in BBC first edition of the Transatlantic Sessions [in my humble opinion the best edition]I
Why oh why can't we have these musicians now. What a shame.
Transatlantic Sessions have set the bar at a very high standard. Probably the best television ever. I've been a purchasing fan for over 8 years now and these recordings still give me a sense of time and place sadly missing in this modern world. Jerry and Aly should get Nobel Peace prizes.
I am pissed i didn't get this series in america..from the northeast ud think they would pick up such a gem on public television or throw on Netflix now
Proud to have been able to have dinner with the writer of the great song, Marjy Plant.
Quando mai sarà possibile un miracolo di voci come questo, meravigliose...
These girls are the Heavenly choir ! xx love it !
Wonderful music with Emmylou, Iris Dement and the lovely Mary Black.
The voice and harmony are amazing👍🎸🎶
Legends will always b the best❤🫡
Pretty voices and pretty women,,
This is simply beautiful
Crazy good. Wish I could of been in that room.
Love the song, love the singers, and the musicians are wonderful! Such a great video! Keep singing and playing and well all keep listening!
These ladies are spectacular. They all are lovely, but Emmylou has grown more strikingly beautiful the older she has gotten. Iris is a favorite and so is Mary. The previous poster nailed it--it doesn't get any better than this. Kudos to the musicians as well.
You’r so right! : the three ladies are so beautiful all in their own way! But the song they are singing is so magnifigue! And the musicians: how they’re playing the music with so much pleasure...!! I just can’t stop playing this video and watching it again and again and again!!!
Beautifully done.
Wow! Never heard this before. I loves Emmylou! This gal can sing!
Love the harmonies.
I'm Brazilian and I really like country music. It's simply beautiful.
3 most beautiful voices...how I love this song!
Five thumbs down!!! Who in the wide world would put a down on this??? This is even better than the original recording by Emmylou, she got SOME harmony help, and a Cross Atlantic twang to it. this is just...... (fill in as you please)
Just discovered this piece of musical gold. Emmy, Mary and Iris weave some magical harmonies. I’ll listen to it for a long time. Iris harmony is just transcendental. She makes the sing so rich. Such a fun loving song, just mesmerising.
Wheeling my love of Iris' harmonies!
Three great lady singers, beautiful. top class musicians and a fantastic series.
Elle a toujours cette voix merveilleuse ❤️💞💓💕😍

Emmylou good lookin woman good singer she hard act to follow voice of an angel her & iris
Having listened to many of these recordings, the question remains; who put all of these wonderful musicians together at one special time and place? For the answer I refer to Iris’ tune of Let the Mystery Be and enjoy what is. Thank you Mr. Producer.
A little piece of heaven!
Thanks to all of the performers for a beautiful song;I play it over and over again and it is as music should be: fun and moving.
Charming lady and golden voice.
Beautiful and uplifting. Thanks everyone.

Lyrics:
The wheels of love turn around and around
Keep on rollin' 'till you've found
The perfect partner, somebody just right
To have and hold every day and every night
So she's halfway to Texas with all of your dreams
The world ain't as bad as what it might seem
You got a whole lot of living, honey, left to do
There's still a whole lot of love inside of you
The wheels of love turn around and around
They'll take you for a ride like a merry-go-round
Don't let the heartache hold you down
When there's plenty of love to left be found
On the wheels, ridin' on the wheels of love
Catch you a ride, imagine what you might find
Just the right girl at just the right time
Ready and waiting, she'll look you in the eyes
Ah, but the wheels of love will never compromise
So she broke your heart, honey, don't look back
You got to keep on rollin' down the track
And maybe the next time you'll keep your feet on the ground
When the wheels of love spin you around
The wheels of love turn around and around
They'll take you for a ride like a merry-go-round
Don't let the heartache hold you down
When there's plenty of love left to be found
On the wheels, ridin' on the wheels of love
The wheels of love turn around and around
They'll take you for a ride like a merry-go-round
Don't let the heartache hold you down
When there's plenty of love left to be found
On the wheels, ridin' on the wheels of love
Oh, the wheels
Ridin' on the wheels of love
Wonderful.
Awesome ❤
sweet singing!
Soo cute!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Wow! Could not be bettter.
Music thank You
einfach gut.
❤ ❤ ❤
Consummate Example of Harmony
cutie Mary black
So fucking sick!!
You are not stupid. The world does not appreciate the 'divine reflection' of your soul balanced somewhere in-between the divine heart which reflects your divine mind. Don't you see how beautiful you are? We are all reflections of the divine light!
The Lord rebuke our pride. The Lord bless our humility.
The Lord rebuke our greed. The Lord bless our charity.
The Lord rebuke our wrath. The Lord bless our kindness.
The Lord rebuke our envy. The Lord bless our patience.
The Lord rebuke our lust. The Lord bless our chastity.
The Lord rebuke our gluttony. The Lord bless our temperance.
The Lord rebuke our sloth. The Lord bless our diligence.
This multi-faceted perception of God should not be conflated with God Himself. This is our human perception of our experiences of God’s interaction with us. But as James 1:17 yet states, every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. As 1 John 1:5 states, this then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Anymore Videos from this Session?
Who is playing the bass in this session??? She is great
It is Molly indeed. I believe she is married to fiddler Jay Unger. Great bass indeed from a lady who seems to be able to play any instrument put in front of her.
@@iganatiousjr they are married and play as a duo, and with their kids as a family band. plus run a band camp in NY state each summer.
How is it possible that 21 persons have the dumb down.... don’t understand.....😔
Is that Randy Scrubs on guitar?
A
How adorable is Iris here? And her high harmonies sound so great. They all do.
