Justin C With you, man. Unlike some, I actually get a kick out of watching RA shed his skins, pick up new musicians, and make some more incredible new music. But never was he better than with Neil Casals on his left, playing and singing. The unplugged session in County Cork, Ireland, with just RA and Casals playing and singing together--transcendent!
runs thru my veins like a long black river and rattles my cage like thunderstorm. How many things in life are just like that. so damned perfectly felt and described.
Ryan Adams music is all about the details. no matter what type of music people are into all will agree that Ryan is wicket talented . i get it!!! he is far above all else and the fact that we hear it makes us lucky.
yup that line's amazing. every time I hear it I wish I could've written that, and it makes me think of how moving it must be for the person he wrote it for.
Love him singing Pearls on a string.His voice really carries.Do you think Ryan Adams gets sent all the teeshirts that nobody else will wear?lol.Noticed him donning an Iron Maiden one in another video..
Ryan is already one of the all-time greats and deserves a lot more recognition. As for FORtheCURE2008's comments...I believe you don't know what songwriting is about. Songs are living things that change with the mood of the singer.
I completely agree with Jeff. I like the album version but this is much better. Thank God for UA-cam because I can listen too it whenever I'm on the computer.
just heard a band in the park where i live that reminded me of this band ," Old californio " wish you guys would come perform here in Paso robles ca. either in the park or at the midstate fair !
The only reason I've favourited this video is that How Do You Keep Love Alive is my favourite Adams song and I can't find another video when hes singing it live. The album version is a trillion times better, however. I've seen this guy live 3 times now and not once has he played How Do You Keep Love Alive.
It's actually called "how do you keep love alive?" which might make it easier to find tab on the internet. Throw a capo on the second fret, and then the chords are just G,C, and D, with an occasional Em.
This version is great. Lots of songs are that way, not so good on the album but when you put the correct instrument arrangement together they take on a new life. Sounded too contrived on the album.
"She runs through my veins like a long black river and rattles my cage like a thunderstorm". This song rattles my tool like a thunderstorm. Boner achieved.
just listened to dave fronseca's version. great version. but he didnt write the song. ryan did. and you have to admit fronseca sounds like chris isaac. very much like chris isaac. i'll take ryans version everytime
Hey Ryan it's cool we're gonna actually eat that paper towel roll and after at least half a week when or matches in tune singing tunes spit stains meet for a fry
Man I miss this band

Great versions of great songs from a great show. RIP Neal!
the harmonies are amazing
I forgot how much I loved this clip.
RIP Spacewolf.
There can only be One. Ryan Adams forever. Simple as that. No one comes close.

Thanks, me too, I wrote it
There's always new songs to sing but few as wonderful as by this man and this band.
Like,... I can't even conceptualize that there are eight people who watched this and clicked 'I dislike this'. That,... mind-blowing.
maybe youre just superior to all..
cant conceptualize why someone might agree with your opinion on a matter?

I don't know how old you are but Ryans music has me as spellbound as jackson browne and gram parsons did me in the seventies. i just love him.
"I don't care sad it didn't rain and stay out"🌸
ryan adams = SUPER TALENT. PERIOD
It's not just adams. Letterman has all the best musical guests. Either Dave or one of his staff has great taste.
beautiful.
thanks!!
2nd half of this video is instant classic!
thanks ryan, you help when i feel the need to cry sometimes.
glorious kind and always on time
An amazing performance, as always. One of the best "Pearls On A String" ive heard.
great versions. this guy never lets me down.
I saw a show last year in Ohio and walked outside and Neal was chatting with some fans, it was off the hook!
amazing.
yup that line's amazing. every time I hear it I wish I could've written that, and it makes me think of how moving it must be for the person he wrote it for.
Do you, because I DID WRITE IT
amazing guitar!
their freakin amazing!!!!
love this!!!!
Pearls On A String is one of my all time favourite songs.
Love the Misfits shirt.
oh my, that second performace..
Love him singing Pearls on a string.His voice really carries.Do you think Ryan Adams gets sent all the teeshirts that nobody else will wear?lol.Noticed him donning an Iron Maiden one in another video..
Elton John/ Andy Dick on the keys... Ryan Adams is an absolute beast of a musician. This guy pretty much owns everyone in every regard
RIP Neal

a genuine country artist
yes, this is probably one of the best written lines ever.
fuckin' tight.....ryan rocks!
yeah! great!!! still love him
man thanx for posting great performance Ryans great live!
I absolutly adore Ryan Adams. . . Jesus chirst, that was back when I was into guns n' roses/ohter shitty 80's arena rock bands
Even better than the album in my opinion.
Unseen sounds scary💙
Pure Genious
Same here. That was a cool idea to sit around Dave's desk and do that one.
just heard a band in the park where i live that reminded me of this band ," Old californio " wish you guys would come perform here in Paso robles ca. either in the park or at the midstate fair !
first song is off cold roses, second is off of easy tiger
How do we keep this kind of music?
💙
yup! and he's been on quite a few times.
but, he rarely ever mentions that Ryan's been on more than once.
I met Ryan on the street in Wellington New Zealand, talked to him for about a minute. Wish I'd said something cool tho.
Damn, I wish I knew.
Postively heaven. B.T.W. - Go, Nellie! (Your pal Lynn from Queens)

they have a pretty extensive history...it'd be interesting to see them chat casually.
I would know, I have nearly all of it..
Hello webcasters! lol. What a goofball! Pearls on a string is genius! Great track.
He found his calling.
NC is the best
songwise he has never reached anywhere near the "perfection" of LA CIENEGA"
If you aren't a troll, you should be.
You need to check more stuff out. The song you mentioned is great. I agree. There is much, much more.
you are all over these sites. If you don't like ryan...WHY?
In what way🌸
It's actually called "how do you keep love alive?" which might make it easier to find tab on the internet. Throw a capo on the second fret, and then the chords are just G,C, and D, with an occasional Em.
someone help i can't find the 3d button on my keyboard, no but seriously this video freakin rocks!
Ryan is the best but it is a close second- Jeff Tweedy of Wilco is also great. Our generation's two greatest, our Dylan and Lennon.
AGAIN SHAYLA...SHAYLA SHAYLA.....
Dave says🌸
haha, "hello webcasters!" Letterman is great, Adams is all-time, what more could a person want in 6:30?
It's on Easy Tiger, actually.
Aramh🌸
Elliott Smith is in that category as well.
its a harmony jet set sovereign jumbo,
How many times has he played on Letterman?
This version is great. Lots of songs are that way, not so good on the album but when you put the correct instrument arrangement together they take on a new life. Sounded too contrived on the album.
I actually think that Ryan and David Letterman are good pals. There was a special thank you note to David Letterman in the tray of "29"
please listen david fonseca cover- write 'david fonseca how do you keep love alive' and listen the best cover of this great music
@axegas76 Old post but no one answered the brand is Harmony.

Ryan Adams thanks Letterman in one of this CDs... so I think what you heard is completely wrong

Girl = Nellie McKay
such talent..unbelievable talent....in such an arrogant person lol

ralhds🌸
thats definitely not a tear in my ey.
what guitar is the one that Ryan is playing?
H1264 "Jet Set" Soverein Jumbo made by Harmony 1970-1972
( A famous copy by Ibanez was the Concord 752 Jet Black )
"She runs through my veins like a long black river and rattles my cage like a thunderstorm". This song rattles my tool like a thunderstorm. Boner achieved.

just listened to dave fronseca's version. great version. but he didnt write the song. ryan did. and you have to admit fronseca sounds like chris isaac. very much like chris isaac. i'll take ryans version everytime
It seems when he got married his music 🎶 suffered. Not sure though.
