Ghost Riders, The Don Kelley Band ft JD Simo. Robert's Western World, Nashville, April 9 2011 robertswesternworld.com/ blogs.tennessean.com/tunein/20...
I Absolutely cannot get enough of J.D. Simo and The Don Kelley Band. They are and INCREDIBLE band. If you're ever at Robert's Western World, you MUST check them out.
J.D. IS SOME KIND OF AWESOME! BEST VERSION OF GHOST RIDERS I EVER HEARD! 'I'VE SEEN HIM PERFORM THIS MANY TIMES IN NASHVILLE. HEY GO IT WORTH THE TRIP!
After watching about a half-dozen Don Kelly vids of this song, my hat is off to JD..!! EDIT: After watching this yet again...a few more times...all I can say is...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was there in August and when they broke out into this???? THE ENTIRE STREET RAN IN,,,,the whole place got off their chairs and I swear Robert's came off it's foundation!!!! Never mind the rest of the bars....we spent each night perched here!!! THE BEST!!!!
The Don Kelley Band is AWESOME. There are no words to describe just how Incredible JD Simo is. I just wish that dopey guy in the white shirt (in front) would have sat down).
I recommended Roberts and Don Kelley to someone. Someone overheard me and said "that's a tourist trap". So? He always had the best players and it was great entertainment. What's better than a good seat at the bar, a fried bologna sandwich and a yuengling and great tele?
@Floridays1 TOTALLY agree....I have to come back to this video, (by the way, unbelievable quality) The place could not have held another person when JD started...I have no idea why he isn't recording and on the charts. Here is a most unbelievable guitaist...if you've never been to Roberts in Nashville, make it a point to get there...you will be surprised beyond belief!!!! Thanks to my best buddies for taking me on a WONDERFUL trip to Nashville!!!!!!!
more vids i watch more i love this guy. you should hear his knowledge on vintage instruments. a damn good career in front of him.. stay away from the drugs tho.
Watching this makes me think of Marty McFly and his rendition of Johnny B. Goode for his dads high school class, and Marty loses control and goes of the deep end. Yeah That part. ha ha ah
A reporter once asked Jimi Hendrix, "how does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world" to which Hendrix replied, "I dont know, you'll have to ask JD Simo".....😊
I enjoyed the skill and performance of the guy on the left. The other guy I just wanted to punch him because of his whistling. That really hurts my ears and slightly diminishes the talented guy.
Perhaps the greatest guitar solo ever played... bravo JD Simo!!
Awesome musicianship and camaraderie!
Thanks for sharing!
That was so nice I had to watch it twice. Dayum! Simo...
How this doesn't have millions of views is beyond me....incredible playing
So good. JD Simo....the king
Dang, I'll have some of whatever JD's having! Unspeakably awesome! Thank you!!❤
imagine walking in the door to the start of this amazing solo!!
Miss you JD! You’re awesome!!!
Seen him open up for the Allman Betts Band last week in Detroit
This is the greatest guitar solo/performance I’ve ever seen!
I Absolutely cannot get enough of J.D. Simo and The Don Kelley Band.

Really one of the best videos on TH-cam

"Guess You Guys Aren't Ready For That Yet, But Your Kids Are Gonna Love It"
JD Simo is a MONSTER....
This is one of the best... and craziest ... guitar solos I have ever seen... wow...just, wow... Don Kelley is lucky he was not impaled 😁...
Typing with my jaw dropped on the floor...best 7 minutes 34 seconds I have spent in I don't know how long.

J D is one bad man. freaking amazing.
😃 JD off the leash...AMAZING!
Grat camera clarity. One of the best existing J. D. clips yet. Can you believe he is only 26? His career is just getting started.
My Gawd,,,,That was effing great. Simo rocks...nuff said

Beyond the beyonder.

JD really went all out on this one.

First time hearing these awesome guys, they can surely kick up some dust 💥🔥👍
JD Simo is a BAD ASS!
The Don Kelley Band is AWESOME. There are no words to describe just how Incredible JD Simo is. I just wish that dopey guy in the white shirt (in front) would have sat down).
LOVE IT! When JD goes off, it is amazing. Love how out-there he is in Don’s band. Really exciting to watch.
Oh shit ! JD kicks ass !
Wow!

Wow ..just Wow !!
Great to see J D again. I was lucky to catch him playing in Flagstaff while he was still in high school. Hee looks great!! ...and funny too.
That's the way to get the crowd to buy another round.
This is how you impress your boss !

WhooHoo J.D!
Look at this muther effer go!!!! Wow!
If this is the JD Simo i use to see him when he was still in high school. He was playing blues. Just a kid i use to see him at The Railhead in Vegas.
Shit got real at 5.30
The first time I saw/heard JD was with the Lexington Lab Band on TH-cam. He tore up the Luther Perkins' parts on the Johnny Cash songs.
🤯👍
Played all the notes
Good God !!!!!!
Just another Monday night at Roberts
Good Gracious

more vids i watch more i love this guy. you should hear his knowledge on vintage instruments. a damn good career in front of him.. stay away from the drugs tho.
From 1:30 to around 2:00 the dude dancing in the bottom left corner cracks me up.
Looks like Robbens Tele
Holy fuck
@kevland1 Thanks! Filmed on a Canon S95, if you're interested in that sort of thing...
holy shit, my s95 could have done that? impresive
Watching this makes me think of Marty McFly and his rendition of Johnny B. Goode for his dads high school class, and Marty loses control and goes of the deep end. Yeah That part. ha ha ah
THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO NASVILLE...Lord have mercy
Anybody know if he's running ANY pedals or just cranking that amp???
perhaps the greatest solo..........ever
Right at the end, was that the incident when he cracked the tele in half?
4:46 secret fuzz switch
A reporter once asked Jimi Hendrix, "how does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world" to which Hendrix replied, "I dont know, you'll have to ask JD Simo".....😊
Ya know, if Led Zepplin had played shit-kicker music, this is exactly what it would have looked like! Love it!
King chainsaw pickin gorpy wippy wappy riffs
I quit!
watch LUKE ...THE NEW GUY AT ROBERTS...HE TOOK EVERYTHING FROM JD!!! JD is the very best!!!!
This guy looks like a nut case but I wouldnt mind him playing a while in my band !
WTF??? Really?
JD put on about 75 pounds since then…
good coke
wow - a country guitar player who doesn’t play cheezy licks - who knew?
song ruined
I enjoyed the skill and performance of the guy on the left. The other guy I just wanted to punch him because of his whistling. That really hurts my ears and slightly diminishes the talented guy.
Are these guys only pretending not to be embarrassed?...or do l just not get American subtlety..
This more cornnery than corn on the cob
WOW!
Drugs ,alcohol, teenaged missing, who knows, very good solo, excesive act
