Damn. They can all sock it to him - Elvis, Cash, Dylan, all of them. They got nothin against that singing, playing and overall down-home feel. Tell em guitar!
I grew up on his music, There is a story about this song between him and Elvis when Elvis wanted to record it, but that story never made it into anyof the movies about Elvis' life. RIP Mr Reed; You are missed
Jerry Reed was an amazing , underrated guitarist and actor. He was one of those guitarist like Roy Clark, that was humble to a fault about their gifts. Old guys like me will remember the good ones....
I was born in 87 but I grew up loving Jerry and learning to pick a guitar just because he was and is an idol of mine and American icon. RIP Georgia Wild Man
Great footage of one of my favourite guitar pickers. I have most of his albums. Wondered if there were any photos when he recorded with Elvis in '67 and '68.
Hey Phil- was just scrolling through and listening to and viewing some of Jerry Reed’s best on your channel. I think you had several videos posted years ago that had Jerry and The Thompson Station Congregation with Johnny Gimble guesting on fiddle. I think they did 3 songs. One was a killer version of Eastbound and Down to close the show. Any chance you could post them again?
Could never understand why Elvis wanted to record Guitarman. He couldn’t play a guitar anywhere close to Jerry Reed’s talent and the song was obviously written for the singer to play the guitar solos. Jerry told them it wouldn’t work to hire a straight lead guitarist because he’d tuned his guitar about five different ways to get the sound he got. Elvis found out Jerry wasn’t lying!🤣🤣
Thank you so much!! I love all the old Jerry Reed videos, there's never enough of them so it feels like Christmas when a new one crops up that I haven't seen! 😁
His fingers do the talking - the brilliant Jerry Reed RIP🥰
Jerry Reed was a one of a kind and an American Original. Rest In Peace GuitarMan.
Best recording of take a walk available
So good!

Holy shit..... what do you do with a gift of that magnitude? I suppose one option is - become Jerry Reed.
This is bad ass rocking out on a classical guitar.
magic mate! I didn't think I'd ever get to see take a walk played live! Any footage of Woman Shy?
and that's SOME reverb!
Jerry was great. Song that started his career.

Do you have Jerry Reed's full Austin City Limits performance from 1982, which included the opening credits with music by John Mills?
I think, he made a lot of changes in our faces. Thanks JR, where ever you are!
Thanks Phil to share these videos with fans of jerry, specially french fans!
Thanks for showing for all his British fans, son 🎸
What a súper talent + million $$$$ Sony + great PICKING only JR can do....in front of Elvis .... surprised as hell....

Thanks, Phil! Any idea what that is attached to his guitar?
It’s a Baldwin Piano Vibration mounted pickup on the lower bout
muzikman74 I’m curious how that pickup worked (I saw no cord on Jerry’s guitar)?
Son!!!!
Look how good lookin he is . A true country star . ..G...
Gadgets on top of guitar!????????
Paolo Spadaro It’s a Baldwin Piano vibration pickup on the lower bout
muzikman74
grazie, never seen such a thing !!!
muzikman74 I wonder if it was running through a Baldwin Amplifier as well.
Fantastic
Awesome
Not bad for a handler of the presidential models over the years....
Tell us more. Was his daughter involved?
Phil have any idea what guitar jerry is using as its pre-baldwin era i think it may be a Gibson C1-E as he used these in the 60s
He’s using a classical with a Baldwin piano pickup. Before the Prismatone equipped Baldwin classics.
Maravilhoso
Yall check out ALEX MILLER , a Kentucky kid.
