    I'm glad you did a video on this performance.
    Using the machine head to detune is SO cool musically AND technically.
    Doing this, bending out past the nut, and using his finger to pry instead of a whammy bar makes him incredibly fun to watch. He's a true showman.
    Thanks for highlighting his talent!

      Sadly, I'm not surprised at all. Austin is full of super talented musicians who are not paid. You might be surprised to learn that the Vaughn family has almost as much money as W and probably more than (lying) Trump, and if anybody is better than Stevie, or even his brother Jimmy (sure as hell not Jimi) he gets smothered.

Yelled t soneone in the audience and ended the show early. I hated seeing it, but he is human and I would be first in line to see him again

      I saw Junior play a free show at a casino, and he had a heavy quilt draped over the front of his amplifier, which was actually placed in front of him near the edge of the stage. I'm not sure if he was protecting the audience from excessive volume or preventing the sound from carrying a hundred and fifty yards out over the casino floor. Anyway, he would have been hearing the sound coming off the back side of the speaker cone!

    See Junior in a bar or small venue- he takes no prisoners. Seriously amazing player live. My favorite moment was the encore where he is total rock n' roll mode, crowd is going nuts, you can't hear yourself think. He comes back on stage with the guit-steel over his head like a trophy and does a Mick Jagger impression in a British accent " People....behave". It was awesome.
    On the original version of Sugarfoot Rag he goes in and out of Hendrix- "Wind Cries Mary" and a riff from Band of Gypsies. Really cool.

    much thanks for doing this video(I'm the one who suggested it)...seen him 3 times always entertaining and mesmerizing showmanship with some great humour thrown in , he and his wife are both really great people...now can someone tell me why this man is not considered one of the best guitarists of ever?...

    I love how Junior "untunes" his top guitar at about 1:18 -- for some twang -- Junior Brown just absolutely MASTERED his chosen instrument, IMHO. Great review, as usual, Wings of Pegasus!

    There's a video here on YT where JB is playing a club with several famous players in the crowd and they ALL came up to take a shot at that Guit-Steel! Junior himself played drums while everyone played his Guit-Steel.

    I love the way he gets back into pitch after turning the machine heads. It’s way harder than it looks. Junior is a real pro.

    I still remember the first time I saw Junior Brown play. With the big hat, suit, and mutant guitar, I legitimately thought he might be an alien.

    Just had the pleasure of meeting Junior at a small town music festival (Return to Riverside, Potlatch. ID.). 23 years (and a cold) hasn't diminished his skill one bit! He has an active tour schedule, usually small venues...see this living legend if you can.

    I'm pretty sure that you're correct, he calls it a guit-steel. And, man can he make it talk!

    Hey Thanks for doing the Junior Brown video! I didn't expect to see it so quickly! I was curious IF you'd do one and if you did WHICH video you'd pick. This is a good one to show his style. I really enjoyed your commentary. Thanks again!! I can't get over the fact a guy that can play Hendrix or SRV can do perfect 50's and 60's country. Watching his face when he plays makes me think his guitar is really an extension of his body. I really appreciate you doing the video!

    Hi Fil
    I meet him here in Florida about 14 years ago. What a fantastic man he is. Funny and a great artist. My favorite was "My wife thinks you dead". So if you get a chance check it out if you haven't.
    Have a great day..

    Great sounds from a really tight band! They're really together. Junior is in a league all his own as an artist. Great post!

    I smoked a joint with Junior Brown one time with a few others back in 1993 at a bar in Austin Texas and he was inhaling the joint through his nose, probably to save his voice. Damn I miss those days

    Thanks for a great video. I love Junior Brown. If you haven't seen his performance of "409" with The Beach Boys, it's worth a look. He outdoes himself on the guit-steel. Thanks again.
