Jerry Douglas Feat Mumford Sons with Paul Simon - The Boxer video free download

Jerry Douglas' slide playing turns a half decent cover into an absolute masterpiece.

Sam Austin

Love this!!!!!

Great version breathes life into a tune I always found a bit stuffy and I guess for speedy below no-one does remember S & G now

Amazing version! What they lack in the 'slamming' of the church door they make up for with their voices all together in the "li la li". Absolutely gave me goosebumps! I liked S&G but didn't explore all of their music, then i heard this cover and immediately i was sent into bliss!!! Although i would have preferred it if they carried on the "li la li" at the end because the way they did it made me wish there was more :') .

Amazing version, love it :)

I think this version is spellbinding. I'm glad that they "made it their own" and didn't try to copy the original to the letter. I think that show great respect to S & G.

Does anymore remember Simon and Garfunkel? Are you too young to witness genius??? This is coal compared to dimonds.

Tyler Macready

I just hope everyone still knows that Simon and Garfunkle did this song best. That "slam" that everyone misses is them slamming a church door. And honestly this cover feels like an empty husk without that creativity.

Just saw Mumford at Red Rocks in Morrison, Colorado. What a great group of musicians and their sound is perfect for what could be the best outdoor venue in the world to see live music.

I'm convinced that Jerry Douglas is still the world's greatest dobro player!

J D ADDS THE DEEP TO THIS SONG...

An excellent cover. The only thing I missed was the --Smack!-- sound from the original S&G tune. I always thought that was the sound of the world beating "The Boxer" down, which adds a whole lot of pathos to the song.
