    • @Vito_Tuxedo
      @Vito_Tuxedo Před měsícem +1

      @BGK2223 - The cameramen are important, but they're not calling the shots. The mind behind the visuals is the video director. He knows the song, knows who is playing what parts, and directs the video engineer to switch between multiple cameras.
      Each camera man is wearing a headset, and the director sets up the shots, calling them in advance - "Camera 2, go wide and close on Jerry's dobro to pick up both hands...", so the shot is already there. Then, when Jerry's solo comes up, the engineer switches to Camera 2, and...ZAH! - it's right there.
      They probably had a chance to run through the tune in a sound and video check, so the cameramen and engineers already had a good idea what needed to happen during the show. With a director who knows the music, it all comes together and looks smooth and perfect, like in this video. But all of these guys are masters of their craft, and the best of them can do a great job on the fly if they have to.

    I did not know who these ladies were.
    But they knocked me down by their first voices.
    Confused but distincted voices.
    How beautiful each voice is and voices are ,I cannot say.
    I thank You Tube for this oppotunity,listening to their voices.

    I am not a country music fan by any means but this is stunningly beautiful, and not simply because it’s a Paul Simon song. All through the song you don’t get to see the drummer but I’m thinking it’s so good it can only be....yes it is, Mr Steve Gadd!
