Gilliangirl Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 If I was rich I'd just follow these guys around the country side. Oh what a life that would be! Great video Subu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tennroots Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 I have been playing that CD/mp3 album daily since getting it last month. Dave & Gillian also have a nice performance over on NPR Tiny Desk Concerts. In the latest Fretboard Journal there's a great interview with Dave and how he found his Epiphone.

E-minor7 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Just sat there injoying the show when suddenly they glide into the grand Cortez. ", , , and the women all were beautiful and the men stood straight and strong and they offered life in sacrifice - so that others could go on" Fine, fine stuff, , , sounds like an excellent evening ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincentw Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I've been a fan for a long time. Sat right up front at The Station Inn many many years ago when Gillian and Dave performed on a hot Sunday night there. Great great musicians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilliangirl Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 David and Gillian with Solomon Burke, who passed away on Sunday. Oh I love that performance. It's just perfect. Gil and Dave have played with so many musicians. I'll bet when Gil was cleaning motel rooms before they got famous she never thought she'd someday be singing/playing with some of the world's best musicians.

Buc McMaster Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Good stuff. Our favorite guitars at work. I like an up tempo tune myself.......... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7knB3VtAqY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I'm right behind you - and does this 50 sound good : Warm, round, bit percussive, slightly swampy, , , and there's even lots of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know she cleaned motel rooms...I did know that her parents were writers on the Carol Burnett Show, so she did have a fairly upper-middle class childhood and got to hang with all those great creative people in Hollywood. She's from California.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's from California.... If you ever have the time and inclination, this is a fabulous article on Gil and Dave..... The Ghostly Ones by Alec Wilkinson: : "For awhile, Welch made beds and cleaned bathrooms at a bed-and-breakfast. 'That was a good job for me,' she said. 'You can't listen to the stereo because you're moving from one room to another, and the vacuum is too loud; there's no entertainment so you have to provide it.I would write. Plus, I had a 40 minute drive there and back, and I have always been able to write when I'm driving, if I'm by myself.' She brought home tablecloths and napkins to iron. She and Rawlings lived in the same apartment building, and sometimes if Rawlings needed money, he did some ironing too." I'll bet neither one of them does much ironing anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
