Publicly underrated for sure, but the musicians of his day knew him as a go-to studio man, the guitar man. He will always be one of my very best favorites and an inspiration to my own playing until I can't play another note...
Jerry Reed is my favorite guitar composer and player of all times. Each one of his songs is a wonderful puzzle even for advanced guitar players. I think he was a rare gem and was hardly recognized as he should have been. Too bad the mob prefers cheap pop songs.
Jerry Reed's talent was immeasurable. Always made those ridiculously hard guitar parts look like a walk in the park on a Sunday morning while singing and making jokes was unreal.. What a performer and inspiration !
I'm from Belgium and frankly don't care much for most country music but Jerry, he's somethin else. I would be a happy man having that much talent and charisma
Completely agree. He's using the intro of Stumpwater as the intro and as a 2 5 in the verse. He has been playing it a few years at this point I guess. Great performance from a seasoned professional and one hell of guitar player.
2:01 is my favorite moment on TH-cam. Jerry absolutely knowing and feeling that he's slaying it and giving himself 2 seconds to get all the way into it. Perfection.
Jerry Reed is such an inspiration, love the song. This is one of my favourite guitars he plays, it has a real nice tone. Sounds like a cedar top classical, probably from the studio.
meiner Meinung nach hat er sich für was billigeres, her gegeben als er eigentlich ist. und hat seinen wert damit verloren. Dennoch ist er für mich das Vorbild das mir zeigt das frei leben möglich ist. auch ganz ohne irgendwelche Zusätze. und wenn jz einer sagt er hat nichts verdient im leben stimmt das auch nur zur hälfte. er repräsentiert das was leben heißt und dafür hat er auch Anerkennung verdient.🤨😐
Jerry Reeds signature riff if there ever was one. Also on Eight More Miles and his version of Don't think Twice its alright amongst others (such as stump water like you mentioned)
@@FatLadyKiller he plays a lot of E, E7 and A7 and B7 compined with C# and F# and of course he always plays his signarue lick which you can learn on you tube.. The downside is he tunes his guitar a half step down for this song
Mind Blown. UNBELIEVABLE talent. He must be the the most underrated guitarist in history.

The Southern Nights counterpoint licks. An unfair balance of talent, charisma and humor. What a monster.
You've said it. Son!
I like this one even more than the studio version

I like live versions better of most songs in general
Jerry reeds delivery of the song is on point, and through all the jokes and all never misses time once
Off the charts talent!!
Two and half minutes of pure magic with a guitar.
Took me like 3 years to learn this version of this song and I still can’t pick it like that

Ohhhhhhhhh this mans a one man band!
What an incredible talent Jerry Reed was. Texarkana Blues.
That laid back singing and commenting like its nothing is horrible motivation
In this song there is all the groove of Jerry. Rip. MV

@@brunozadro he's in E standard tuning in this video. He does use Eb and F for a lot of his early songs though.
Brooks Robertson has just posted a good lesson on this song. It’s not a comprehensive lesson but more about the picking pattern.
