Old Crow Medicine Show: Wagon Wheel

Live down by the duck pond at Cambridge Folk Festival 2005 (though the track cuts out before the end). What I can't find anywhere is the ensemble version of the same song they did together with almost everybody else at the end of the Saturday festival session that same year. I suspect it wasn't recorded, which is a bloomin' shame. 'Twas a great festival year.

They're great, aren't they? Joined by Gillian Welch & David Rawlings, they did the only ever cover of "The Weight", other than The Staples Singers, that is worth a damn:

Whoa - I hadn't ever heard this version - those harmonies are sublime.

I do think though, that there is yet one more very recent version of The Weight that rates up there, too.

I'm very partial to OCMS indeed. They played the Cambridge Folk Fest two years running a few years back now. First year they weren't listed to play, turned up to support Gillian Welch & David Rawlings, started busking around the site and were picked up by the organisers for a stage slot to replace an act that hadn't turned up. The next year they were booked and back with their own stage slot. That Gillian Welch / David Rawlings gig at St Luke's was stunning too, I remember it being broadcast on the BBC.

Oh, and Muppet music is always brilliant. Talented bunch of performers they are.
