- This is Jerry Reed playing, "The Man With The Golden Thumb." Great performance and a testimony to the credibility and staying power of the Wrangler Country Starsearch, now known as the Texaco Country Showdown - the largest and longest running Country Music Talent search in the nation!

I just remembered Jerry Reed as a jokey country guy from my childhood. Watching him today I am blown away by his effortless musicianship and ability to perform. The way he commands a stage and leads a band is amazing.
Jerry was the man with the “Golden Thumb”. We love and miss you Snowman. 🙌 💜
Redneck Santana. Amazing guitar, with a top notch band. I'll never get tired of Jerry Reed.
One of the best guitar pickers ever
You can tell when the comments are few and far between that either this wonderful man was either a 'turkey' or a great musician, that 'turkeys' failed to appreciate.
Jerry Reed was a great musician ... he was also a great composer and all round entertainer. Anyone who played with Chet Atkins was no 'turkey'.
Don’t get no better than Jerry Reed!! RIP JERRY!! Gone way too soon but never forgotten!!🙏🏻❤️✝️
If your an aspiring guitar picker Reed's all ya need !!
I was born in Siberia in 1981, a year before this concert. I LOVE Jerry Reed.
Great song. For some reason I have only heard this song a couple of times. Jerry has unique gift for telling a story and putting some insane guitar riffs into the mix.
Jerry Reed was an All American Talent
Whos the idiot that did the thumbs down?? Mr Reed was amazing, not just for his acting, that boy could make a guitar scream! Sad for these kids these days. You just don't know talent!
Kids today may not understand it, but their kids will rediscover him.
Mad Robot Games Jerry is my hero and I’m 16. I’ve been one of his biggest fans since I was 13 or so. So you’re right! I hope more young people will discover him because he was the best musician ever in this world.
Goed gezien en goed gezegd, Thijs!
Reed - the fastest Claw with a Golden Jaw!!
Awesome song. God rest his soul he was truly a great performer and I truly miss him and his music
Just in case any of the younger folks don't know where RAP music started, it was here, with Jerry Reed :)
Such a talent!!! Greatly missed. Rip .😢
Jerry Reed was such a talented musician
This sound like country Zappa to me for some reason! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 RIP Reed! Lord have your soul!
Greatest entertainer of all time
IMMENSE
The Irony: Jerry flat picked through every lick of a song about a thumb picker🤣! JR has always been one of my favorites. He was a true guitar genius.
Yeah but he could finger pick as well. And often did.
There will NEVER be another Jerry Reed!!!
Never heard a sound like that. I wish that I saw it live.
This band was 🔥
Just awesome. R.I.P. Jerry!
"Arsenal of talent" is about right!!!!
So good! I miss Jerry!
Pensons bien à vous m Reed pour tout ce bonheur avec ce film ,,le convois c était fantastique merci
Go Jerry!!! You are missed!!! But never forgotten!!! RIP Jerry Reed! 🙏😇💕
MAKES ME SMILE ❤❤❤
Greatest banjo solo ever!! 3:38
Amen Brother!
SON!
Awesome. Miss you brother c'mon
Amazing
Jerry Reed was such a fabulous player. I love this video. They're all playing the same guitar brand/model (I can't work out what it is). I'm guessing the band had an endorsement deal.
Epiphone
All Peavey
Aria Pro ii TA series, which stands for Titan Artist.
I own three of them.
Not with these narrow headstocks. They are Aria Pro ii guitars.
Absolutely not. Jerry was under contract with Aria Japan.
Jerrys version of Devil went down to Georgia
He did a cover of The Devil Went Down To Georgia.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YEE!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jerry is a legend but he had some clankers on this one
irreplaceable
Does this remind anyone else of "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" ?
I looked it up and Charlie Daniels wrote that song in 1979.
Yep. Seems to be the same tune.
I was thinking the same!
Dennis Weaver. Cool
Now just wait a minute here, I love Jerry Reed but the Devil Went Down to Georgia came out in 1979 and this came out in 1982. 🤔
Was there ever anyone as copy as Jerry Reed? I don't think so.
The Ron Paul Liberty Report.

Devil went down to Georgia?
Devil Went Down to Georgia was released by Charlie Daniels Band in 1979. Jerry's Golden Thumb came later, in 1982. Surely there was some influence... but country music has always built on its past. Not saying that's necessarily a bad thing.
That's 3 Aria Pro ii TA guitars, made by Matsumoku, in one band! Don't know about the bass and the banjo. They built good instruments. Pity that Singer hadn't protected the factory against their own bankruptcy.
Singer sewing machines are what killed the Matsumoku factory. The best and most talented Luther's ended up making custom Japanese Fenders that were better than Fender Custom Shops of the day. Many went to South Korea to support the new Gibson factory, which is why many Epiphones up to 1997 are very well built. The same Luther's built Peerless, who in turn made high end Epi's. Never chase a factory, follow the individual workers, they are th talent. Speaking of Fender, they're 'Fender' in name only. Leo went on to help start Musicman (as good of amp, better guitars), and G&L... hisnlast business before he died. The greatest improvements to Fender guitarsncannbe found at G&L. Better bridge, more advanced and quiet pickups, and everything is treated as a 'Custom Shop' order, besides their low-priced entry level stuff. Leo trained those guys well, then there is Suhr who also comes from Fender. Similar thing with Gibson USA when they moved their factory. Heritage Guitars make equals to Gibsons in every way. Some are much better. 🤷♂️
Even the Beatles wrote some stinkers. Pickin's great though.
