I’m a new fan!! Turn it up!!❤🕊️

Magic...👏👏👏👏

Grown on me this album❤

If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you(37 years later),it was meant to be… 😂

Bill Frisell is a goddamn treasure 💜

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is the good stuff. Thanks Bill.

Too funny! I went from a big body Gibson L 5 copy with same colors by Samik and bought an SG by Epiphone. Im keeping my big girl but the SG is way lighter and easier r to play. I paid 700 for both amazingly. The Samik came wit Seymore Duncans pickups

So beautiful 🎶✨🌈🙂

Great story. Really glad BF was reunited. The gear we regret letting go of is usually never seen again.

This music takes me to heaven 😊

like a dream

Deep Blue Ocean

Wonderful.

Happy reunion for sure .

It’s beautiful, but doesn’t suit his mature style

This is remarkable - inspiring and prescient. Thanx for sharing it here where I can share it with my students.

still love your work!!

Very nice, melodic and unpredictable, love your work

Bill,the Guitar found you!

Sweet story. Loved it.

We’re not worthy.

What a beautiful and blessed project!!!

we'll have to wait until Bill takes this onto UK Antiques Road Show to find out what he paid for it at Thunder Road Guitars but as this was back in 2014 and not 2022, he made a sound investement

What a beautiful story! All us guitarist have "the one that got away or sold or stolen away" stories that hurt and never or rarely get back. Happy for Bill. Know its personal though I'd love to know what they charged him. Of course being who he is, I'm sure they were more than fair.

Gosh, this took me back to a time and place I thought I'd forgotten....many thanks

WOW,..Thanks for this ballad..GOD BLESS YOU BILL❤

great!!!

Apparently my comment below got truncated. (clears throat...) In conclusion and going by the evidence, this is either a pre 1958 L4, or a post 1958 L4 custom order with a P-90, or a post 1958 L4 that happened to have a P-90 mounted because Gibson was notorious for doing that kinda stuff. Calling Sherlock Holmes... calling Sherlock Holmes...

It's a great story, but, it is unlikely in the extreme that this is a 175. But what it IS... that's another matter. As others have pointed out, the f holes and headstock are bound, and they weren't on the 1968 ES-175, or any other 175 for that matter. That was an ornamentation that was reserved for the fancy Gibson solid top archtops like the L4 and L5. Go on Reverb and look at the 1960 ES-175s. All plain headstocks, all unbound f holes. Also, look at the bridge. See the white ornamentation on either side? That's what's on a L4, not a 175, though the bridge could easily not be original. But it's the pickup that confounds things. On the ES-175 the bridge pickup is mounted away from the end of the fretboard. On the L4, it's right up against the end. It's impossible to tell without a ruler, but to my eyes, this pickup is in neither position. It's farther away that on a L4 but closer than on a 175. I'm looking at my VOS es-175 right now, and it seems farther away. Of course, this is subjective on my part. Let it pass. But what isn't subjective is this - this is a dogeared P-90 pickup. Gibson stopped using P-90s on 175s AND L4s in 1958. They still appear on ES-125s, which was considered the student model. But this is definitely not a 125. I own one, and it doesn't have the fancy binding mentioned above. version Other's probably know a lot more about this stuff than I do. Any thoughts?

Really Great

So I watched this video and then found myself in the kitchen retelling the story to my wife...and I got choked up. Holy smokes. Well Bill, if I ever get my old 1978 Roland G808 (Ibanez Musician) back, I'll feel the same way.

love it!!

Frisell + Leisz = Bliss

Awesome! You really got it all. ;-) Thanks a lot for loading this whole big bunch of beautiful stuff up!

Simply beautiful

Beautiful

I still have my Fresher ES-175 which sounds still great too... :-D

I find it also amazing that the guitar wound up in the same city that Bill lives in. This reunion was destiny.

Awesome - you're the best Mr Frisell - love the line about checking out Bird!

I know I cannot wait either, Bill. Not only do You have a deep grasp on the tap root, You have an ability to turn back to the surface and nurture Music’s beautiful Tree to sing and dance in the Winds of Change. This inspires me to go play. Thank you for sharing your talents with everyone. JJZ...(°¿.°`)

I miss Charlie Haden, Petra's dad.

I'd forgotten how good the lyrics are. Listen closely.

Every song Bill Frisell plays on makes it golden.

Beautiful as it is, but I kept hearing Hank, Jenny, and Thomas making it even better. Thanks, Bill -- and who on earth has a sweeter set of pipes than Petra? Love it!

Can someone please tell me the name of the first tune they play on this video? I've been drawing a blank for like a week and its driving me crazy!

First song I ever played on the guitar. C D G. One of the classic progressions of all time.

New great cover for an amazing song!

Wonderful. Thank you.

I can't understand the human who pressed dislike button...
