Jerry Reed was a master storyteller and musician, and had quite a big sense of humor. He always knew how to draw in the listener and he also knew how to hook you with the music too. I agree - he was just a naturally, cool dude.
I love Country music, but I also love Funk, and Jerry put some funk in his music! One of my favorite artists and one of the best guitar pickers to ever live!
"Amos Moses" my favorite JR song. Jerry famously helped Elvis record "Guitar Man" and escaped without signing away 50% of the publishing rights.\ to Elvis and Colonel Tom. Jerry Reed is a guitar playing legend.
Re: "he just literally wrote out my life" There's a fairly modern song about how country music is just like that... I think the group might be Montgomery Gentry and I think the title might be "songs about me"
A classmate of mine in colleges brother in law was in "The Grass Roots". They followed Jerry into the studio once out in L.A. and sat and watched him record. They said he'd snort up a line and just play like a s.o.b. for a full hour or more.......LOL.
I listen to a lot of different genre's/music, reggae, rap, rock .. Marley, Public Enemy and Chevelle being my favorites .... Was never much on country, but I could listen to Jerry Reed tho, he was as you said country Kool ... Nice chess set btw ✌🏽
oh after 47 yrs mine was having a 6 yr affair i never got nothing cause he bought the house 3 months before we got married he lied and told me i was on the house nope lies lies for yrs
Pull up on utube where he was on bill dance boat and they were on a bass fishing trip. You need to keep in mind that you don't keep fish on bill's boat. That was his rule. Catch and release.
