Its a crime that only 1800 folks gave this amazing rendition a thumbs up

They’re like listening to one person with two voices and twenty fingers. They blow my mind every time. Love ‘em.

David putting on a capo mid-song at 18:04 like it's as natural as breathing. Doesn't miss a beat. Incredible.

I was fortunate to see Gillian Welch and Dave Welch in Eau Claire. Me and my tough buddy cried more than the girl who was with us

Great work from the BBC. The fact that the state-owned BBC, and here in Oz the ABC, seem to be so much of the best work in television is an indictment on market theory.

I heard this live on the night and finished up getting the whole family round to listen to it. Astonishing harmonies and guitar work. I have gone back to it again and again over the years as it is TV at its best and never disappoints. (Well Done BBC) Time (The Revelator) has not been bettered since by anyone and I defy anyone who hears it not to stop listen and really appreciate two fabulous musicians absolutely at the top of their game.... a desert island disc for sure.

They apparently had that quality by the time they recorded their first album... If anything, it's become more polished over the years.

What a fantastic show. Definitely a keeper to revisit every so often.

The first time i heard this about 5 years ago I was blown away, 5 years later I'm still moved to tears by the pure raw beauty of these two, words cannot describe how i feel when I listen to this. What I wouldn't give to see these two live in a small venue somewhere. Xx

i only can agree to what all listeners before me wrote. These two musicians arent just the normal bread and butter no way !!! they are top off the bill musicians heavenly voiced but stay so normal. One thing will surely happen you will be feeling a magical feeling coming over you like you'll be under a spell and it never let you go !!! in a very very good way !!

You have to hand it to the BBC - fantastic sound quality - you can hear both guitars and the individual voices too

I wonder if they understand how good their music is, how well it works. Being on the inside of it, engaged in the delicate process of writing or performing, they can't experience it the way we do. Listening to one of their own recordings, even, they probably can't just hear it and feel what it does. They have reason to envy us.

Actually Benjamin, While I agree on how Phenomenally good Rawlings is, I was talking to one of the Felice Brothers, back around the time of a tour of OCMS, The Felice Brothers and the David Rawlings Machine and he said, " He's the most talented guy in the room, any room, but he don't know it, He is humble and he gets nervous before he goes out there. " and I met his father at the Newport Folk Festival, without Giullian and David on the bill and while I didn't know it was his father, I happened to sing David's praises, and he said, " He's my son. I didn't know David was a world class musician until someone told me."

Actually Ben I was paraphrasing my discussion with Mr Rawlings Sr... he actually said this interesting revelation " Gillian's is my Daughter inlaw, David , That's My son." yep, they keep it quiet, I don't know why, but they are married.

Gillian is beyond belief. Just incredible. True artists. Elvis just amazing.

I keep returning to this concert. And it makes me stop and listen intensively(?) everytime. It's so honest, sensual and beautiful. Yessir.

J Ellis that’s an interesting comparison.

wonderful. the greatest duo in modern music.

IMO this is their best live performance I've been able to find on the internet. The only rival concert material is the live time revelator album, two songs of which are on KZread. I return to this one above all other, these renditions are pretty much perfect.

Wonderful concert. Reaches to the musical and, at times, spiritual core of all that is good, special, and true in American traditional and blue grass music. Great musicians and composers deserving of all good things that have and will come their way. One day I hope to see Dave and Gillian honored for lifetime achievement at the Kennedy Center.

38:45 The Way it will be. My new favorite Gillian Welch /David Rawlings song - perfect performance of a song full of beauty, sadness and longing...

Love these two. What a great concert. The only faith here is their undeniable talent and voices. Gillian and David are true troubadours of the great western sound.

Recently discovered her and she is great. Ron

Gillian you are amazing! And David you are too. I love Gillian’s lead vox

UNreal... Rawlings is the KING of hollowed out guitfiddle, and Gillian is the most charming ever.

Dave tears it up... that playing on I'll Fly Away...

I saw them during this era at App State University in Boone, NC,,, they played a similar set. This video brought me back to that experience and it by far was the best music venue I've ever experienced.

Ijust saw them in LA,CA they were just as good.the only difference is i didn t have to go to London i'd go c her again

This is perfection!

Definitely my favourite rendition of Red Clay Halo, such a brilliant concert this. Love them. ❤

One hour of pure musical substance that can rarely be heard elsewhere. They are an incredibly well kept secret...

Tremendous talents! I never tire of this particular performance. It’s perfection. ❤️

Ya this hits the spot, vocal harmonies are warmly soothing yet heartbreaking at the same time ... and im travelling on the path between.

JUST BRILLIANT

A Masterpiece

Such a gift ... both of them ... spellbinding

Oh God, I can die and go to heaven to their music.

Criminally underrated.

Gobsmacked... This is incredible

astonishing.

Their wind up to Caleb Meyer at about 45:00 is so impressive.

Great concert! Perfect recording.

Thanks for posting this!! I've seen the encore with OCMS and I've always wanted to see the entire show. I love Gillian's voice. So pure, honest, and earthy. Very refreshing.

Brilliant!!!

Perfection!

The most perfect harmonies you will ever hear

32:45 David just completely melts the faces of the audience for two minutes straight and then sheepishly looks up and goes on to the next song as if nothing happened. I wonder if they provided towels. Magical set. Had the honor of shaking davids hand once. special people.

Elvis Presley would have loved Gillian and Dave. He would have jumped on the stage with his guitar and added his beautiful voice to their crisp, spot-on harmonies. These two are as good as the Beatles. Their songs, musicianship, and performances are brilliant.

As good as the Beatles? come on man, they're incredible musicians but don't come within 2 miles of the consistency, creativity and flexibility of the Beatles songwriting. And this is from a massive Gillian / David fan and someone that doesn't like the Beatles at all...

What a great performance. Gillian is the best. I'm not sure, but I think she is playing the rhythm guitar. It sounds like a martin d18 to me. Her singing is so good. I enjoy playing along with this on my martin d18.

Hey Joshua, her main guitar and the one she is playing here is a Gibson J-50. I've read that it's a 1956. It's a great sounding box, and perfect for her style and songwriting. It's spruce and mahogany like a D-18, so there's that similarity. Cheers, and keep on strumming that D-18.

Joh 20:27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” Joh 20:28 Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” Joh 20:29 Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

Linda Ronstadt Part Dieux except unlike Linda Gillian writes. For someone born in NYC raised in L A CA she sure sings like a fellow Tennessean.

I always thought that she has some faith in her, concerning Christ, sence she sings a lot about Jesus in her song, but some one told me the other day that sheis a non Believer.

David or Gillian? Haha... Oh, no worries John...she's a 'believer.' You can hear the spirit in Gillian's soulful voice. Dave Rawlings, on the other hand, is an absolute heretic. He 'dun sol his sol' to the Devil Incarnate. And, I report to you in good faith: ol' Robert Johnson and Jesus (PBUH) both smile down approvingly as he plucks 'dem strings.' They were both heretics, as well, and recognize their own kind. Amen.
