The harmonica player is Pat Bergeson, a highly rated session guitarist in Nashville. Search for Tommy Emmanuel, Richard Smith, Guthrie Trapp, Bryan Sutton and Pat Bergeson to see three videos of them absolutely killing it together
So glad the version with the full intro is back on RU-vid. That's part of why I loved this video, the way Jerry and Chet go back and forth is pure gold.
From the back of the theatre comes a low gravely voice that says “it ain’t got no gas in it!” To which Jerry and Chet reply “thank you Carl, you’re absolutely right!” 😄😉 Wish I could have seen these two legends live, but very grateful they live on through this outlet.
My older brother Don got to be good friends with session guitarist James Burton and James told the story of being in the studio with Jerry Reed one time and the Jerry chased James out into the parking lot and put him in a headlock and told him that he couldn't leave until he showed him how James did that guitar lick the Jerry really liked.
Went to sleep with RU-vid playing a mix from my line up tonight, woke up at sometime after 1am to some of the best music. Russel Malone just followed Robbie Robertson. It just keeps getting better. Throughout this mix awesome comments from people around the world. There is good out there with music bringing us together.
I also know Chet was a generous and magnanimous person and liked to work with lots of players/singers. Whether one is better than the other is probably up to personal tastes. No doubt those pickers are in a class of their own.
Why do people insist on complaining about new music when they put no effort in to finding good music among the thousands of new artists. There are great people out there now. Look up josh turner guitar on RU-vid or billy strings
I saw jerry about a half a dozen times through out his career. You nailed it when you said pocket. The man was all about establishing an incredible pocket when he played. One of the times I saw him was in the late 80's and he came out with just a telecaster and he played the first 30 minutes with with just him on the guitar and some of his band singing background vocals doing gospel stuff. I was blown away. Not enough people realize just how much of a genius he was on guitar.
when I hear Chet play ... I now that the world is still a GOOD place. If there isnt a GOD ... then who created chet / Jerry and this music .. here I am tapping my toes and fingers missing the hellout of CHET ...and Jerry too ! repeat # 8 ... God almighty I miss the hell out of these guys ... 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😃
When a man and a woman love each other very much they sometimes make new humans called babies. That is where they came from. Then they worked very very hard to tefine their craft. Mystery solved. No sky daddy needed.
Jerry Reed is but Jerry is right. He’s father- in - law is better, and I don’t know who that harmonica player is but iv got to say that he ain’t no slouch.
too overdone all you need is one simple guitar and an unaffected voice. these are good old boys though. it could have been worse they could have had roy clark freaking over a nice simple little tune.
