- In 1984, several classmates and I produced a television series at KNCT-TV46 in Killeen, Texas celebrating the Austin music scene. This is part two of a two part series highlighting the life and music of Jerry Jeff Walker. Artist has agreed to display this video on TH-cam, therefore, this video is not infringing any copyrights.
Opening Theme music "Austin Pickers" written by Clyde Buchanan, performed by Gary P. Nunn. - เพลง

Yep. Been a lifelong Jerry Jeff fan and was lucky enough to be in the audience for this one. One of the broadcast students in the dorm asked me if I wanted to come to a taping of "some guy named Jerry Jeff something". That's when I knew he wasn't from Texas! A great memory I can now relive thanks to your posting it. Many thanks!
loved jerry jeff sang ... She knows her daddy sings to my daughter, but can someone please tell me what happened to Jesse? I can't find anything anywhere. Django yes but Jesse no..???
All the more special now that he's gone
RIP JJW! Always contrary to ordinary.
Peace ( what a great project! Excellent for its time!)
Echoing the words of woody2blues:
THE WHOLE COUNTRY world SHOULD KNOW THIS MUSIC!
wildebeest3 thank you for your comment!
I never saw Jerry Jeff Walker in concert, but I've listened over and over. Love the crickets on Viva Terlingua. The Texas Connection he did on WTNN felt like seeing him in a club! This video is another gift. Thanks for posting it! ❤️
This was one of the hallmarks of my life and affected the direction of it in so many ways! A special thanks goes out to Jerry Jeff for his permission to allow me to post his performance online!
Rest In Peace
Wow I love seeing this TH-cam’s with Jerry Jeff doing these Guy songs
Benjamin Rubinett thank you so much for the comment! It was an amazing experience for me as well! Please tell your friends about this channel!
Jerry Jeff Walker, mother of all good time music. Here presented in a nicely groovy laid back fashion video presenting some own and other carefully, chosen gems. Wonderful is only the limited first word, describing this magical artists performance. Enjoy, big time!
Lars Bergqvist It was a blast to direct and edit this video with my two fellow classmates. I often look back on this magical day as one of the highlights of my life. Such an amazing show!
Wonderful. I have seen the clip of Jerry Jeff playing "LA Freeway" on "Austin Pickers" before, but not anything beyond that. Also, you've uploaded a better quality version - thank you for that.
I'm a big Jerry Jeff Walker fan. But, I also love John Inmon's guitar work. Just beautiful.
Again, thanks for uploading this clip. Also, thanks for choosing to produce a segment on Jerry Jeff.
Happy Birthday "Scamp"! Miss you everyday!
Great post Tony made my night
God bless you and a Happy New Year!

It used to be all Jerry Jeff and Rusty Wier. Couldn't tell who was better at the time. Long live JJW.
Buddy Schmotzer totally agree with you
Great video of much younger JJW and fabulous lead player, John Inman, not playing his mega slick Tele as in Navajo Rug.
Robert Cudlipp thank you for your comment! Please share with your friends!
RIP jerry jeff.
Thanks for posting this. I helped you with the funding way back then. It was a great series. Are all of the shows posted?
Words cannot fully express my gratitude to you as I thank you for your wonderful support and belief in our college project all those years ago. The experience I gained during the production of this musical series ripples down to this very day in my career and I still look back on this series as one of the highlights of my life.
I don’t believe that I had much dealings with you during that time, as my coproduction partners Ed Heffelfinger and Bambi Littlesun concentrated on the booking arrangements and I was focused upon the actual physical production of the series; although the duties were shared amongst us, as I recall.
This was a 12 or 13 part series, along with the 2-hour tribute to Austin musical artist Clyde Buchanan. I have received permission from multiple artists (Steven Fromholz!, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Jerry Jeff Walker, Gary P. Nunn, et cetera) to place these programs in toto on TH-cam and I have also informed them I had no intention of monetizing, only preserving, the videos for posterity. You can find all the episodes I was able to save in my Austin Pickers playlist as well as on Ed’s TH-cam channel, entitled “AustinPickers” if I remember correctly. Please message me directly if this isn’t clear enough.
Also, please check out my other playlist called “25 Hot Country Cafe”. It was a country music video series I produced about 10 years later while working in Waco, featuring many up and coming Nashville performers of the day (Clay Walker, Tracy Byrd, Blackhawk, and so on). The experience I gained from Austin Pickers directly influenced the direction of this program and, once more for that, I cannot thank you enough.
I now own and operate my own video production facility entitled “Rare MEDIA Well Done”. I would be honored if you would add a dot com to that name and check oit some of my newest work. I am still in Waco, but work all over the state. Let me know if I can ever be of service to you once again. So nice to hear from you and I am grateful to have the opportunity to thank you properly for just how much you have helped to set the course of my life on this track. God bless you for that!
Howdy Kim...Yep, this was certainly the start of something big. Thanks for everything. EdH. www.flickr.com/photos/austinpickers/
I bought everything Jerry Jeff did up to 'Too old to Change'. That for me was the last thing he ever did that was worth buying. I remember buying a cassette called 'Hill Country Rain' about 30 years ago , it was so bad I threw it in a street bin . Susan Walker may have saved his life, but unfortunately he lost some magic as he straightened out. Still i'm sure his family would rather have him alive , even if lost 50% of his fan base.
MrPhilfridge I still love everything he does 😀
@@gregpatterson921 Perhaps you'll like George Hamilton IV then, because even his version of Navajo Rug is better than Jacky Jack. Everything he does is so 'ugh', just flat , and a parody of his former self . I really did love his late 60's and early 70's stuff-particularly the first 3 MCA albums and I find it very sad I can't bear to listen to him now, point me towards his post 70's brilliance 'cause I cant find it.
MrPhilfridge he has always been my favorite. Navajo Rug is great! Been to countless concerts and birthday party weekends. We all have our favorites. He is mine.
@@gregpatterson921 Well he was a great artist and if you still find him so, then that's good for you, but somewhere along the line , I think your quality control has become very forgiving. Most of my favourite artists from the country rock days have had down turns but seem to have ridden them out , though time has rendered their relevance a little. Chris Hillman is a good example , no longer a cutting edge musician but capable of a good album occasionally. Ray Wylie Hubbard defies all such rules, hes reinvented himself and he continually produces good albums, and great engaging performances , whilst Walker ,once his superior in terms of recorded output and performance slides backwards Ray shows you can get straight and still cut it. Hey, I don't want to argue with a JJW fan 'cause I really did love the guys work but imho there's a little audio deafness from some devout fans like yourself, but i'm glad you can still enjoy him, I really wish I could still.
I think JJW's take in this video on his classic "Hill Country Rain" (beginning at about 25:40) illustrates what MrPhilfridge says herein. I would've been very happy if JJW had given the electric guitar player this song off and I just heard JJW's acoustic guitar and voice - it would've reminded me quite well of the exquisite 1972 original and made a nice show-closer. By the time this series was shot, JJW clearly still had the talent and enthusiasm but maybe his artistic judgement became a little off; or maybe he was just tired of doing his repertoire the same way as always and wanted to turn them into something new. In any case, this recording of this song misses the mark; the 1972 (vinyl) original is far superior. It's good to see Jerry still having a good time though.
