TARP TARRANT Talks about LYNYRD SKYNYRD JJ CALE & His Friends with Steve Vest 

Tarp is on so many albums is hard to believe....from Mac Davis's baby don't get hooked on me to Jerry Lee's return to Memphis and his anthologies/greatest hits to Don Nix's Georgia State trooper......a man that has seen and been apart of so much music history. My hats off to you Steve, I love your stories and I'm grateful for your fabulous memory. Peace from Texas

I wish these ole boys could live forever

Old Southern hippie geezers are cool---I dig em!

Good ol' Tarp! Always ten more people he's worked with everytime he speaks! You keep em rollin cat daddy!

Steve I could listen to you and the great tarp man talk all day every day ! God bless brother.

Hard to believe it's been TWO YEARS since this first came out Steve, you need to do another video with Tarp. You guys complimented each other very well. God bless

air boats in the background nice!!! love those fuckin things

If you want to see and hear some classic Tarp, watch the Jerry Lee Tour bus Tales. Fantastic!

Two very interesting dudes.Thank you both.

In 4th Grade 1964 a kid in my class for “current events” brought in a Miami News clipping headed “The “Almost Beatle””, Pete Best.

16 years playing and running with Jerry Lee makes Mr. Tarp a stone bad ass.

My kind of guys!

Very interesting info! And I agree..I just loved seeing Artimus and Bob both play drums together!!❤️ Thanks Steve!✌🏻️

Love it, I'm getting more smarter every since I started listening to Steve's Swamp Show. I really appreciate Steve I have a lot of knowledgeable about Rock & Roll. Thanks for all you do friend.

JJ Cale did write "Call me the Breeze" and "Got the Same Old Blues". Both covered by Skynyrd. Cale also wrote "After Midnight" and "Cocaine" made famous by Eric Clapton. JJ Cale was a Tulsa man along with Leon Russell. Just down the road from me. There's a video on YT of them 2 playing "Going Down" that is outstanding.

keep those shows a going buddie I like listening to them it reminds me of my family alot

Talk about legends! Tarp, J.J. Hendrix, Richards, the Swampers, the list goes on! You can feel the love. Well, as noisy as those bugs are they must feel it too or maybe they are auditioning? What are those insects anyway, Cicadas? Lol. Thanks Steve!

I’ve been watching your chats for about a year now! It’s been off an on that I noticed one of your chats but I always check it out cause I grew up on Skynyrd music. I’m from The Daytona Beach area so is Florida boys mean everything to me! I truly miss Ronnie, Allen,Leon, Billy, Steve,Bob,Cassie,Ed,and if I missed anyone please forgive me! I had a double aneurism and my brain no longer has the snap it used to. But I love hearing stories of my favorite band I think you are an ace in a society that loves crappy music and digital crap to take the place of talented musicians! Thank god for lynyrd skynyrd and you as well! God bless!!!!

GOD BLESS YOU STEVE VEST AND YOU TARP GOOD SHOW

Just subscribed. Too cool, man.

Thank you for this interview. Not everybody that does great work has an expensive studio. DIY brother.

This ol boy comb his hair with a firecracker

Thanks cool dudes! Interesting! 🙂 I know there are more stories to be told!

When I was a kid in the early 60s my dad was really into folk music which was big then and we always watched Hootnanny and then Shindig when it came on. I never knew Leon Russell was involved with Shindig

from what I understand Mr. tarp holds hi own on when it comes to the percussion end of things

Tarp said he met Burdon in '57. Altamont was 12 years later.

Hey long timer Skynyrd fan. Saw them three times in 1976 1977. I want to write a book about Allen Collins-greatest raw guitarist that I have ever seen. Can you help me out?

vest, where is the proof of you playing with ABB @ Atlanta Pop Festival ? maybe you blew a note back stage

And here's why you shouldn't do drugs kiddies.

They both stayed in the same nursing home.

what?

And what's the point?
