Old Train - The Other Favorites (feat. Gabe Terracciano)

Old Train - The Other Favorites (feat. Gabe Terracciano) | Josh Turner Guitar

Note: due to the way it was recorded, this video will sound much better in headphones or true stereo speakers.

Tony Rice did as much for the acoustic guitar in the 20th century as anyone - Andres Segovia, Django Reinhardt - and his album Manzanita is an absolute command performance from the first to last note. This is the song that starts it off, with the intro as he plays it (or as close as I can get). Tony passed away not too long ago, but his music was and will remain a towering influence on guitarists everywhere. This song was originally written by Herb and Nikki Pedersen, and first recorded by The Seldom Scene in 1973.

A big thanks to Gabe for joining us for this one.

If the old train sounds this good, I wonder what the new train sounds like.

[StuartRiley]

For anyone who doesn’t read the description normally, unless you have a good set of speakers, do yourself a favour and listen through headphones to appreciate the true audio wizardry on this video!

[petercogan]

he's not tony rice. he's not billy strings. he's josh turner, and man, can you play and sing. just great.

[UnconciousObserver]

Anybody who scorns at country, listen to these wizards!

Tasty treat on a cold, blowy, snowy day in the North.
Old Train oh won't you come and take me away
. . . to a warm and sunny day.

[markfoulk]

I am just so continuously impressed with Josh Turner’s seemingly unlimited talents.

[quiqweig]

What magick is this, you ALIENS! You’re not human. What, two guys + Gabe, just throwing a tune like this together and pooping out gold? Crying foul, I’m telling mom, deep fake, no fair...no fair haired able-bodied musicians on the music video tip can match the musicianship. TOF indeed.

[jimajello]

Tony Rice would be proud to hear your version of "Old Train". To hear you guys play it together would have even been better. Josh, your triad cords & Tony blending his floaters weaving in & out would have been a sound for thirsty ears! Even though Tony has passed his playing is alive in your version of Old Train. You honor his memory.

[douglastate]

Tony Rice would be impressed with the licks and the arrangement! Ah, just wonderful!

[bruceparks]

I am an old feller who has put much time and effort into playing your sort of music and I gotta tell you, you guys put a huge grin on my face and a tickle in my heart. Thanks.

[martinwalsh]

I have two guitars, a banjo and mandolin. I've just thrown petrol over them and set them alight. These guys are brilliant!

[omahahaha]

That was great! Warmed up this 0° Nebraska day!

[JoanPedrola]

This is serious stuff! In memoriam Tony Rice

[jonhumble]

Incredible musicianship on display here. All in 1 take... not a beat missed, no bum notes, not one fluff or fumble. Amazing.

[robertjohnson]

May I be the first to say ... Wow. I don’t know much but my ears are pretty discerning and that, my friends made a cold, dark Winter’s day much nicer. Thanks.

[Santi]

These new locomotives make the old train walk. Congrats.

[mrxten]

All three of them handle their instruments with great talent, but I think Terracciano's playing is outstanding in this song. I've been paying attention to his work for a while. Off the hat to you guys, thanks for being there. :)

[stevebell]

YEE HAH! Good ol' MUSIC like they use to play. Gabe sure can play the fiddle! The Other Favorites on my "A" list.

[giulias.]

Thank you for the big smile you just put on my face! 😃

Josh and Hozier are my two biggest motivations to become a better guitarist. They intimidate me at first, then I think, “well no, I know the basics of that, and I’ll get there someday.” For anyone in a guitar learning curve rn, keep going. Seriously. It will pay off.
