Here are Pearson and Emmanuel laying down a dangerous groove with this Allman Brothers song..

That videoing was DREADFUL!

...Ly good*

[@tomcoryell]

Jack’s a damn good singer in addition to his mastery of the guitar.

[@SFJonesBand]

Jack Pearson is truly a damn monster. Absolutely one of the best.

[@redduketeleman]

Don't get much better than Jack Pearson.

[@MichaelBartlettGuitar]

Speechless. Jack is such a monster and never ceases to touch me in a performance. The guy can play and do it all.

[@pharmerdavid1432]

Jack Pearson is always playing an inexpensive guitar, in this case apparently a newer Epiphone Casino, probably with stock pickups, but he makes it sound like a million dollars!

[@iforce2d]

You sound like my dad when I was a kid and wanted a fancy guitar :)

[@sirfultonbishop]

Pharmer David - Absolutely!

[@johnwilliams1223]

It’s all in the hands.

[@commander591]

its a Casino to be fair.

[@Malcolm701]

What?!!?

[@BCTGuitarPlayer]

I've heard Pearson play many times but never heard him sing till this! 😮

[@patrickwilson8438]

Greg Allman is smiling in heaven hearing this for sure!

[@Flavum]

So is Gregg.

[@joshuaphillips1867]

Thank jesus for the person that recorded this... stars aligned here

[@actionoriented]

I LOVE this. Not only two of the best players on the planet, but two of the most gracious men you can meet in the business. Tommy's fame and playing speaks for itself - many folks aren't yet familiar with Jack - Jack is out of this world personally and professionally. Great video!

[@ronhoffman7941]

Absolutely

[@JackSmith-ou1dg]

How's it possible I only found Jack today? Is he a hermit?😅

[@benbarclay5546]

No, he's a nice guy.. @@JackSmith-ou1dg

[@da324]

@@JackSmith-ou1dg He's played with the Allman Brothers, Gregg Allman, and others. Many of the greats say no one is better. He can play any style equally as well..

[@JackSmith-ou1dg]

@@da324 That's why I can't believe I only came across him recently. So I guess he never had his own band with a big hit.

[@Knight14649]

Two living legends.. they’re so good they don’t even need a band..

[@LWMyrth]

Thanks for this amazing performance... and to Rhett Shull for spotlighting it. Would never have heard about it otherwise!

[@paulrodberg]

That’s a lot of talent in just 2 people. Quite special.

[@pauldavis5489]

Jack and Tommy are so unpretentious, yet so amazingly talented. I love their chemistry! They are so fun to listen to you would have thought that they had written Midnight Rider! Thankyou J and T!

[@jimmyc5498]

Haha, probably best version I’ve heard. Jacks vocals killin it.

[@nilsx3020]

Masterclass. Here because of Rhett’s video…

[@RobJuneau]

Damn, that’s beautiful.

[@stevehughes1510]

Just two of the best gat players on the planet, and great guys to boot.

[@nazmoking3171]

2 of mY all time favorite guitarists - great to hear them collaborate and improvise here with a "jazzy" Midnight Rider!

[@CUBICUB]

Just recently discovered Jack, he’s a 👿 MONSTER.

[@zg471]

that was my pleasure.

[@donsland1610]

Awesome performance. I met Tommy after a performance in Singapore many years ago: not just a phenomenal musician but a genuinely nice guy.

[@HIPCHIP]

Got to see Tommy in concert a few years ago. He's got the pickup hooked to the amp and the amp to the PA system, I was shocked at how loud he was! Didn't expect that from an acoustic, and it sounded fabulous!

[@jfbegley]

great singer

[@DannyBrooks1]

It doesn’t get much better than this! Just awesome beyond words.

[@larrycourtney8893]

Damn good job singing this one too by JP, real cool...

[@disienna]

About once a decade I get reminded that I’ll always be a noob. ;) That’s all I could come up with without saying any profanities. Love it! A couple geniuses sent here to amuse the mortals for a while.

[@martinscalf114]

That little bleed down that Jack did at 2:15 was perfecly placed.

[@db5837]

Now that's a groove going on there!

[@basilandrigsby]

Beautiful vocals too!

[@timgray8055]

Awesome Duo !!!! 🤘🏼🎶🎸

[@alessandrorossini8704]

That's what great music is all about: a strong urge to express a feeling + mastery.

[@BeefNEggs057]

Sometimes much less than mastery. One could say an instrument is never mastered. I think anyone who plays would understand that you never arrive since your skills are always measured by a critical self. Is knowing one genre like blues enough to be a “master”? It’s not about mastery. It’s about sharing the feeling to a crowd and making a groove that people can be free to and have fun with. If you wait til you’ve mastered the guitar you’ll never get out of your living room (which is fine too - not everyone is a performer - you know if you like the crowds).

[@RFToob]

Love the guitar but wow that voice! Cool.

[@GuitarTodd1]

Jack may just be the coolest dude I have ever seen...Thanks Thom,...great catch!!!!!

[@breshdigitaltv]

They don't come any cooler! Thanks..

[@bluesmonkey4463]

WILD ! AWESOME ! WICKED ! SENSATIONAL ! TWO OF THE BEST PLAYING TOGETHER ! GREG WOULD BE SO PROUD ! LOVE IT !!!!

[@mcambl61]

That is solid gold right there... Awesome musical talent

[@VincentVader]

World class guitar playing. I've had the pleasure of seeing and meeting Jack many times.

[@ClarenceHW]

A dangerous groove indeed! Thank you gentlemen!

[@davefawcett]

Two legends covering a legend.. Brilliant..

[@DlmlZ]

If this groove does not knock you off your feet, than what does!? Killer groove from two true masters. These guys are insane! Love it! Thanks for sharing! Cheers DimiZ

[@bluesdawg8014]

Can't go wrong with these two Get it boys Los Angeles

[@tompelham7035]

Not to mention, the man has a very fine voice!! Born to music? I think so;)

[@peacetrain3320]

The Brothers would have loved this version!

[@Taylachteam]

Who else is here from Theo's Podcast with Billy Strings?

[@1971chadc]

Yep

[@redbarchetta8782]

Jack and Tommy! DAMN!

[@gregorylumpkin2128]

How cool is that? Wow man that was a great take on an ABB classic.

[@arthurprelle3295]

Such amazing talent!

[@lebe220]

Brought tears to my eyes. Second time ever during a guitar solo (first time was Pink Floyd: "Comfortably numb")).

[@TheMujiFuji]

Thanks Breshman - 2 of my guitar gurus...Love seeing Tommy playing The Brothers...with Brother Jack!

[@777jones]

Saw him perform with ABB in 1997. Great show!

[@pilippepine3299]

Amazing feel......just so emotional..!

[@JimPoston1]

Great Playing from both of these guitar giants!!

[@ryanhensley146]

these dudes are human metronomes.

[@bigtsshackfestival9563]

Wow. I’d put this up against on KZbin. Two legends. Jack normally rocks a squire haha. Love that guy Guy is truly amazing player and singer. This vid rules Love this channel.

[@gregdiffenthal2384]

Well, he is playing an Epiphone ! haha.

@@gregdiffenthal2384 looks new just from the store :)))

[@aaronaragon7838]

Two geniuses...🐞

[@Ireland831]

The sound of that Casino is GOD like...great playing Jack. Great version. The original vocal melody line is just so strong, that I hate to hear any variation from it. I liked this very much...two masters jamming on a classic. Bravo!

[@dmc549]

Couple of badasses right here

[@gnawbabygnaw]

Damn. Love Jack. And Tommy. 🤙🤙❤️

[@bobholt105]

Seeing Jack Pearson at 3rd and Lindsley is on my Bucket List!!! Great soulful player.

[@duanerykhus9425]

Thank you :)

[@ezsmith3765]

It’s one thing to play a classic your own way, but to omit the main riff.

[@rizzinthebox7124]

sorry that i discovered you so late. rock on stay save

[@wildcolonialman]

Brilliant.

[@dryley1221]

It's an awesome take-off from Gregg's version on Laid Back

[@RickMcCargar]

Man, that was great, thanks!

[@janedvinsson]

Wonderful! That´s the blues!

[@DanPhillips-ci7yn]

Bad ass , midnight rider

[@nikkienikkie4310]

Saw you all at 3rd and Lindsley recently - was a steamy night both temperature and all that amazing talent!!

[@TheGattonmaster]

Tommy says Jack is one of the best improvisers, phrasing. Becks great in phrasing , maybe the best phraser.

[@tommckinnon1005]

No drums, no bass but still a wonderfully rhythmic earful!

[@danielabatabogdanov8586]

Tommy covered that :)

This is BADASS... shame it doesn't have more views. Damn fine

[@royhamilton5126]

Southern style talk about class yeah buddy

[@maximuskhan2100]

Wish they would have micd up Emmanuel's guitar a bit more. We need to hear every lick from these 2 masters.

[@rainerlanglotz3134]

Guess the title of "greatest unknown guitarplayer" has passed down from Danny Gatton to Jack Pearson.

[@voxac30withstrat]

Wish Tommy would play his telecaster a bit more these days though. His brother Phil could absolutely rip it up.

[@stevetrivago]

Incredible 💯

[@18echosf]

Absolutely awesome!

Great googily moogily

[@artrogers3985]

Wow!

[@plutogamstrumframe]

Jacks amazing and Tommy

[@m444ss]

so so good

[@Malcolm701]

The trouble with most of todays music is not what instrument it's played on (cheap or 'expensive'} but the material itself and the ability of the player.

[@yannik4888]

i aspire to, one day, be able to be half as tight in the pocket as these two gentlemen are, while chilling this hard
