I don't remember seeing such a genuine smile of pure joy in a long time, as the one I see on Jeff Tweety's face here. He smiles like a beautiful child, and sings with astounding reverence for the music.
I know im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me!
@Oliver Kevin Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
My daughter introduced me to this band within the last year not sure how I missed the boat I …was listening to Pearl Jam Nirvana.Skills are Incredibly talented.God bless Jeff Tweedy and his family
Damn. I discovered this song just before a roadtrip to California from Montreal. I was listening to this song on my way there at sunset in the midwest. Hummmmmmmm.... :)
Great tune I've never gotten to see live, and it reinforces that there was a bond between the two singers, not just some common, triangulated respected for Woody Guthrie. Good to see, thanks wilcoclubvideos.
to the guy who says that Billy messed up the words, so did Jeff on the first verse. Ironically I saw Son Volt on the wide swing tremolo tour in Portland Oregon, they opened up for Billy Bragg ironically.
OMG! I was just looking at a concert from Mettalica! it's crazy what the differences are! Like the fans at Mettalica are like screaming! Jumping! And are big metal heads. But these people! They can't compare to them!
This is interesting, considering that there were some "differences of opinion" between Billy Bragg and Wilco about the project. This I read in Greg Kot's book about Wilco and in Jeff Tweedy's autobiography. Per Wikipedia, 'Tempers flared between Bragg and Wilco after the album was completed. Bennett believed that Bragg was overproducing his songs, a sharp contrast to Wilco's sparser contributions. Bennett called Bragg about the possibility of remixing Bragg's songs, to which Bragg responded "you make your record, and I'll make mine, fcker." ' Still, it looks like they're having great fun doing this. Ps. Pay attention to Glenn's drumming.
I always loved Billy Bragg back in the 80s...so it really bummed me out when I heard that Billy said "You make your album and I'll make mine, fucker!" to Jay Bennett.
@@mikeflanagan658 I knew that. But Jeff Tweedy and John Stirratt are the only two members of Wilco left who were part of the Mermaid Avenue/Woody Guthrie project. It was cute that Billy gave John a big hug.
Nah, I don’t care for the Farm Aid version and Bennett just bothers me. I know he was a great musician, but Jeff was right to give him the boot. I prefer the later lineups, and I don’t care if I’m the only one who does. I still like the older songs of course; I like most of the songs off every one of their albums. Jeff Tweedy is just a great singer, songwriter, and musician. He could do an acoustic solo set and it’d be amazing.
This was filmed on November 11, 2009 in Weissenhäuser Strand, Germany. How come during the piano solo at 2:55 they show a close up of every member of the band except Pat, the man playing the piano?
tweedy is a genius song crafter but would be tough to work with in a band he def wants to be the one controlling and in charge, look what it did for Jay Bennett
I really don’t wanna be that guy… but I’m gonna… no mosh pits, no phones, no over crowded mental sweaty crowds, just a few hundred people, a real mix of people just listening to one of the most chill songs being performed in one of the most relaxed performances, the whole thing just seems so laid back!!
I've never liked BB much the whole Mermaid Avenue thing made me respect him more. I like the songs he did on those albums, unfortunately I still don't like his own stuff.
+DAM FLA Billy was not only a part of both albums, he wrote the majority of the music on his own for both albums. So, I guess there's that bit you missed.
I freaking love Wilco and The Mermaid Ave records are two of my all time favorites, but they kind of sound like shit here. Billy clearly wasn't involved in the practice sessions.
No this is absolutely my favorite Wilco song ❤
Absolutely one of my favorite Guthrie/Wilco/Bragg collaborations. A gem for the ages.
Right on, Woody Guthre
I don't remember seeing such a genuine smile of pure joy in a long time, as the one I see on Jeff Tweety's face here.
He smiles like a beautiful child, and sings with astounding reverence for the music.
Just want to run up there and give him a big hug...
Mutual admiration. Jeff had heard Brewing it up with Billy Bragg in his youth no doubt, like the rest of us..
I know im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me!
@Arturo Colton Instablaster =)
@Oliver Kevin Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
The'll never realise how much joy they've given us by playing this song.
JEF TWEEDY - you are an AMERICAN HERO - keep it up babe!
I could listen to a loop of this for the rest of my life.
Love this and glad we have Billy Bragg on this version.
I love this. Healing hands warm the heart! Gotta love Wilco, Billy, and especially Nora!
How bloody great is Wilco? Just saw them last night. STALWARTS . 👍🏿💕🎸🥁
I am hooked on this song it is like a drug i must have this lp it is just great and nice to listen to great band
My daughter introduced me to this band within the last year not sure how I missed the boat I …was listening to Pearl Jam Nirvana.Skills are Incredibly talented.God bless Jeff Tweedy and his family
same reason i missed the boat...we were busy doing homework with kids! LOL!
How could you not love Wilco? Pure joy...
Absolute bliss. really
These guys took Woody Guthries words and turned them into this beautiful song. Nice work .
WOLCO is/was a good band. But Bob Seger is dinomite with this song I've never heard more clarity when Bob sings.
this is my "im drunk" song and i love it so much.
A great song that I've listened to hundreds of times.
They're just having so much fun up there.
I love it when you hear a song 100 times, but then one day you hear it . Bob seger is one those of guys.
Just happens to be my birthday! 12 years ago .. WILCO love
Honestly... how could you not like Billy Bragg's solo stuff? So good!
That's a perfect sample of "FLOWING"... all they are ONE!... just see their faces... AWESOME! WOW!... the SONG and the BAND FLOWING puts me HIGH!
I have to watch this version of this song at least once a week.
All the smiles 🥰 clearly loving what they're doing
Gives me goosebumps. Makes me cry. Love.
I sing this line like this: "I Like to dream , my troubles all away , on a bed , In Californ I.A. !"
This makes me miss Jay Bennett (RIP) and Leroy Bach
Damn. I discovered this song just before a roadtrip to California from Montreal. I was listening to this song on my way there at sunset in the midwest. Hummmmmmmm.... :)
So much joy!
Still watching/listening every day.
So cool these guys did it again! I named my sweet rat Wilco. He's my sweetest pet. I have memories from the band Wilco ❤️
Wonderful Woody. Thank you .
just love this song. Woody Guthire was just a great songmaster!!!
\
Great tune I've never gotten to see live, and it reinforces that there was a bond between the two singers, not just some common, triangulated respected for Woody Guthrie. Good to see, thanks wilcoclubvideos.
Pure joy and love for music is what I see in this clip...love it
Can you guys come to Folk Fest in Ottawa Canada. Captain Pat
great music from a very happy looking band . lovely stuff .
This is beautiful.
Oh my days this is so heartwarming, just what I needed after a rough day.
I love this SO much, it hurts.
I will always miss the West.
*sigh* that voice is just....magic
California's Anthem
Nice to see them together again. I thought Billy and Jeff had a bad falling out. So this is great to see!
How good is this video & song - a tribute to a gret songwriter by a couple of greta performers and a great band
Love this song
veliki pozdrav iz hrvatske, volim vas, zvonko
This song makes me sad, I do love it alot
I first song I listened to after getting high for the first time.
Nice progression, rhythm. Hadn’t heard this before

SHeesh! Nels' lead is amazing!!!

Great closeup of the Jazzmaster at 3.27, and that little finger is so long !

Dear, dear Woody. Carry it on.
Aw he gave John a hug too ❤️ he and Jeff were the only ones left from the Mermaid Avenue sessions at this point.
This song was written by Woddy Guthrie
@@mikeflanagan658 I knew that. But Jeff Tweedy and John Stirratt are the only two members of Wilco left who were part of the Mermaid Avenue/Woody Guthrie project. It was cute that Billy gave John a big hug.
Bellissima!
Luigi Fazio what's matter you Shuta u facea Fongoolou Bastala
This is very good with snow.
The 1998 Farm Aid version with Jay Bennett blows this out of the water.Mainly because of Jay Bennett.Raw.
and Tweedy's voice was made for this song
oleole52 Fuck j Bennett wilco don't need that traitor. U Shuta u facea upa mate.
Nah, I don’t care for the Farm Aid version and Bennett just bothers me. I know he was a great musician, but Jeff was right to give him the boot.

Lyrics by Woody Guthrie, from the 1998 album Mermaid Avenue.
i love it, mate!
SUPER !!!
i really don't listen enough to wilco 😶😔
im the one who made the 100 likes and this song i would like to play like thousand times or more and more and more.
My ears just came.
I wish they would serenade me every night.
EPIC
This was filmed on November 11, 2009 in Weissenhäuser Strand, Germany.
How come during the piano solo at 2:55 they show a close up of every member of the band except Pat, the man playing the piano?
don't know what to think about Jeff Tweedy....so talented, yet so messed up.....when he's "on" he's wonderful
What is the year of this video, nice
check out that youthful crowd
So, so money.
According to BB it was in November 2009
Tweedy is the man billy just attended
The money I would fucking pay to have been in attendance
When was this performance
like to see how Jeff Tweedy adjust his gitter loudness at the end-pin @0:47
Is it Jeff Tweedy, OR Billy Bragg? THIS should end ALL debate ッ.
Fuck that’s awesome
tweedy is a genius song crafter but would be tough to work with in a band he def wants to be the one controlling and in charge, look what it did for Jay Bennett
The fan front-row left at 0:10 looks like a 60 year-old Beck.
Q. Did Woody Guthrie write this song?
Yes,he wrote this song
I really don’t wanna be that guy… but I’m gonna… no mosh pits, no phones, no over crowded mental sweaty crowds, just a few hundred people, a real mix of people just listening to one of the most chill songs being performed in one of the most relaxed performances, the whole thing just seems so laid back!!
I've never liked BB much the whole Mermaid Avenue thing made me respect him more. I like the songs he did on those albums, unfortunately I still don't like his own stuff.
How recent is this? Where was it at?
2009 on Germany
@2:11 is that lee renaldo?
Billy Bragg said some pretty funny, sly comments about getting these Woody Guthrie songs instead of Dylan.
Sounds like the moniters aren't working very well here. Vocal tunning 😕
Alex Hogrefe?
While BB was a part of Mermaid he had nothing to do with this song, other than ride the coattails of JT and JB.
+DAM FLA Uh huh?
+DAM FLA Billy was not only a part of both albums, he wrote the majority of the music on his own for both albums. So, I guess there's that bit you missed.
+AttnJack Understood. All I was saying was that JT wrote the music to this one.
... as diverse as a Wilco concert.
@trickydickynavis and then Tweedy inexplicably said he Bragg was full of sh**. At least according to what I read. Tweedy=Mystery.
I freaking love Wilco and The Mermaid Ave records are two of my all time favorites, but they kind of sound like shit here. Billy clearly wasn't involved in the practice sessions.
