"Hush" - Performed LIVE - Featuring Paul Shaffer & Mike Farris - 2019 Induction Concert & Ceremony

[@turmelmark]

Mike Ferris is incredible ! From his work with his first band ' Screamin Cheetah Wheelies' to his Gospel stuff .What a set of pipes ! He also plays with a great organ player- Brother Paul. Thanks for this, Joe. Nice playing too !

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Thanks for watching Mark…..Joe

"It's my party and I'll play if I want to." I laughed out loud at that one. That song got lots of play on the turquoise jukebox in the base canteen in Korea in 1963. Great job to all the artists on this video.

I love Paul Shaffer and I love Mike Ferris even more. Now, lets talk about inducting that guitar player for his stellar performance!

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Mike….. you’re “way” too kind with your comment about me but I definitely agree with you about Mike and Paul. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel…. Best, Joe

That was awesome, fellow Canadian on the keys, great chive there!! Joe great playing!!

[@stephenclark1551]

That was awesome. Joe you were ripping it up pretty good. Schaffer played likea wild man.

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Thanks Stephen… I did have fun but my playing like I told another viewer that said kind words about my playing was it was really more smoke and mirrors than the truly talented musicians on that stage. Yes Paul is music in the form of a human:)…. Best, Joe

That was incredible!!! Just awesome! Wow! A Joe South monster hit played by the Swampers! And Joe on guitar. Some fine playing there Joe!! Flawless. And I wonder when the whole world will realize the impact and the excellence of Mr. Paul Shaffer? He will go down in history as one of the best who ever played the keys. He's everywhere. He's at every major musical event, it seems. What a talent.

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Thanks Neig…. Yes…Paul is one of the best ever…. Sincerely, Joe

[@BasementBerean]

This is cool! I had the privilege to get a VIP seat about three rows from the stage when Deep Purple did their "long farewell" tour back in 2019.

FANTASTIC

[@Joe.Doucette]

The problem with commenting late is that most of the things I want to say have been said. Of course the band was great. Paul played like Paul and Ferris's pipes worked great. But toss some of that humble pie out of the window, Joe... For not really playing for 8 years (as you say), you nailed it. Your fingers would have hurt but I bet the smiles were bigger. I've just slowly started playing again after 1 1/2 years due to hand issues and my fingers are tennnn...der! And don't give us that "it was smoke and mirrors" line. When you needed to make the right sounds.. you did. Great video. As usual.

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Joe, I just stumbled on this tonight and I love the song. I was very entertained to see you playing also and you did a fantastic job. Wow! You can really play well !

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Thanks Barry… I’m glad you enjoyed it. One of my favorite songs that I never got to play when I was in my band. Joe South being a inductee gave me the chance to include the song that night especially having Paul Shaffer playing organ. I honestly hadn’t played guitar in 8 years before that night other than practicing for a couple weeks beforehand. Killed my fingers:) I had great fun even though I didn’t deserve to place myself on that stage with those top drawer musicians but I had never played at any of our other induction concerts so I decided it was my chance.Thanks for the kind comment…….

I'm being honest when I say Ritchie Blackmore ain't got nothing on you Joe.. I love the added blues feeling you brought to it with your playing.. Just an amazing cover altogether.. A true grand slam that knocked it out of the park!

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

George….. you are overly kind with your comments……. But…. You made my day:) I hadn’t played guitar for 8 years before picking it up two weeks before the induction to try and build some calluses on the tips of my fingers so it wouldn’t hurt so bad or blister up. I never got the chance to play Hush in any of the bands I had so this was my chance and with the great Paul Shaffer on organ! I was scared to death to be on stage with those great musicians all around me but I figured I may never have that chance again. It was great fun. Thanks again…… Joe
