RIP "snowman"

 

[mopower1958]

He was a very gifted guitar player. Chet Atkins and he played together and even Chet had a hard time keeping up. RIP Jerry.

WOW, I didn't think he was that old.

Here's a song of Jerry's sung by Elvis and featuring Jerry on nylon string lead...

FYI- As a retired professional guitar player with nearly 50 years on the instrument I have seen literally hundreds of videos and heard as many recordings of Chet and Jerry Reed..... NEVER have I witnessed Chet having a hard time keeping up....... NEVER.

It just occurred to me that Chet was waiting for Jerry when he got home.... Holding a nice guitar with a new sett'a strings and a great big hug from his old friend....

Man, they have a great band at home...... I almost can't wait to get there....
