Love the Peavy guitars

He was playing Peavey P-60 guitar that the maker was paying him to play; they didn't catch on. Observe his whole band playing them, they are more one-note, sonically from Fenders. He was such a genius, you hardly notice.

Looks like Peavey was a big sponsor

Absolute legend we wont have it again so cherish what these guys did please

So smooth & effortless, and a beautiful song. There's a lot of flashy guitar players in all genres of music but no one plays quite like the legend did.

Jerry was an awesome guitar picker! I had an opportunity to talk to him during a show in Kentucky and asked him why he wasn’t fingerpicking songs and he said he just couldn’t do it anymore. He was amazing to watch. I think he was a good person and funny as anyone could be. We lost a good one!

Didn’t know Jerry Reed liked Peavey like that. That’s a lot of Peavey. RIP Jerry Reed, truly great musician

He was a great songwriter, picker, and great live performer!❤

"...well, they raised up a son who could eat up his weight in groc'ries..."

Tommy was one of the most talented guitar players ever! When he was 16 his family moved to Tennessee in pursuit of his dream. My father (Bruce Osbon) was hired as his guitar teacher. At the time Tommy was only 15 or 16. My father only had Tommy as a student for a couple of years and then they simply became picking buddies. As good as my father was, as Tommy got older my dad wouldn’t even pick up a guitar in his presence, content to just listen to him pick. When he released this song, as it happened, Chet released his version at the same time. Guess which one got air play? As enamored as Chet was of Tommy, I think there was a tad bit of jealousy as well. He was taken from us too soon and never reached the heights he absolutely should have!

I went to see him a couple of times when I was a kid. Thought he was pretty cool. Now I see him on here and realize YEP! HE WAS COOL. I mean the whole band was playing Peavey guitars and using Peavey amps. Who would've thought? In these days of Fender/Gibson domination. Gotta get me another Peavey setup. Then maybe I can be cool too.

My dad played this style to a tee. I cried when I heard this because my dad passed 9 years ago and I'd never heard anybody play the same style my dad played.

💪

Ole Jerry kicking ass on a peavey guitar hell yeah always and forever a peavey fan

Instead of making the Waterboy someone should of talked Reed into making a modernized Reed funk R/B thing...betcha Rubin kicking himself right now!

You can tell they were having fun.

Hey I'm love they make it look so. Easy god bless us all

Peavey powered all the way!

Eargasm...

That was my dad on lead guitar and mr harold pope from Smithfield n c singing

Before EVH,there was Jerry Reed.

Please if this Version could be played as the full version karaoke it would be awesome. Thanks

He can sing, he can act and he can play like the god of guitar.

Then on comes Benny Hill

Mr. Reed looks like he has so much fun playing this. Twice as much fun as I have listening to it. Taylor can stick it.

Best song in GTA San Andreas

Didn't know Doug Henning was in JR'S band. 🤣🤣

Brill to watch and learn from this wonderfull guy...

Love those old Peavey T60 guitars

heard this song for the first time when i was a young kid playin gta san andreas,2024 and still listening!

Два великих мастера!

Just sensational...the definitive version of Shenandoah. Perfect in every way. Thanks for aspiring to greatness Tommy. RIP.

those peavy guitars!!!!

Tu ne peut pas te mettre à la guitare, après avoir regardé et écouté ce magicien

we do know that Scott Joplin is the composer of this beautiful piece. But I'm impressed by the designer of this shirt.

we all know that Scot Joplin is the composer of this beautiful piece, but I'm impressed by his shirt.

There will never be a another Chester Burton Atkins!!! A guiding star for every serious guitar player on the planet earth.

Chet was the Master. Although it is a faster tempo I like this cover.

One of the honest-to-goodness greats. So talented...Thanks Tommy.

He DOES look almost EXACTLY LIKE the younger President Bush!

Just exactly which country super-star today is half the entertainer, singer, and picker that Jerry Reed was?

I've been playing guitar since I was about 10 years old. I just turned 46 today. I can say that I have what I call a Discerning Ear for good music and good musicians.And jerry reed is world class top of the heap

Wow ! Very tight band , great arrangement and nice seeing all those great Peavey amps lined up behind these legends !

My father always felt Mr.Atkins was the best guitarist he ever heard.He had several albums dating back decades.He also had great respect for Mark Knopfler as well after seeing him playing with Chet.

How many musicians can go from country to funk with a stroke of a guitar string. Hint, Jerry Lee Lewis.

Great

A Steinberger bass for this song is definitely a choice.

This is genius

Heh heh, he left out the part about Amos' daddy using him for alligator bait and twice sang about Amos losing his arm clean up to the elbow. But it all worked fine and the band behind him just followed along with no problem. This is the mark of true professional artists. They can make it sound good, even when they screw up.
