Linda Ronstadt did indeed cover this song but those of us from 1964 remember The Swinging Blue Jeans having a hit with it. The great thing about these videos is that you can tell who is good because there is no production hiding their flaws. Nicki Bluhm comes out of this test in the top draw.
This is more intimate than a stage performance. You can see the faces of the group, as well as subtle smiles and other expressions. The folk era capitalized on this technique that draws the audience into the performance. Nice.
HOLY CRAP! you guys have a great niche here with the car thing, but besides that you are truly talented musicians. I hope these "quirky" videos catch on and land you some legit gigs. I am VERY impressed and that takes a lot.
How freaked out, and pleasantly surprised if you were driving in your van alone, changed the radio station, and these people suddenly appeared in your van crooning out classic songs with ease, and awesome style?! I would be sad when I had to stop driving. :)
Another random Joe Rogan listener here. Hellz yeah, this is terrific. Nicki's voice is classic jazz awesomeness. So natural. Not to take anything away from the rest of you guys. You all absolutely rock. I can't imagine having more fun than gigging in a car on the open road. As per other comments, I'll be checking out the channel. Rock on...
Nicki, GREAT voice, and excellent musicians. You would have fit perfectly back in my day. I hope you all can find a wide audience for your talents. All the best!
It's true, other than I think only "You're No Good" we don't perform these songs live nor do we rehearse them outside of the van. We don't even do them every day we travel, just when it sounds fun. We decide the song whenever boredom sets in, listen, and figure out how to play it, then run it once or twice and put the iPhone up and go. It usually 2 or 3 takes and we stop once we get one we like.
As GOD is my witness I have heard this song 1000 times and I would sing along with the words. But last night was the first time I understood what the words meant. Your version allowed me to hear the song for the first time as it was supposed to be listened to. WOW you guys and LADY are great.
gotta say ive watched a few of these vids and nobody gives any props to the guitarist. I play guitar and trust me its not easy to play in any vehicle..let alone with 5-6 people in the van. good job brother!
they must have made like 25 enemies along the way lol. nearly every one of their van session videos has around that many thumbs down. clearly these are people who don't appreciate talent. love it
Hey I stumbled on these recordings by accident and today I bought every recording I could find with Nicki Bluhm, you guys are amazing and it looks like so much fun. Thank you!

You guys need a van sessions album!
Great voice, she killed it. But the guitar man, oh my! That man is truly gifted! Amazing!
This woman, and her band, are going places!! And, no, not just driving around in the van, which is a kick in the seat--what a great idea!!

I play this whole playlist about every 6 months. And it's better every damn time, ha. I regret that I have but one thumbs up to give.
