[@Stewartchampion]

Wicked fukin stuff...been a while since a guitarist got me going ...this guys the nuts

[@theo5580]

This is the greatest guitar solo/performance I’ve ever seen!

[@1101964]

So good. JD Simo....the king

[@azpranksta1729]

imagine walking in the door to the start of this amazing solo!!

[@jennycaseymusic]

Man, I miss watching JD at Robert's. Fricking insane.

[@johnmirabile3535]

HE GOT YELLED AT IN THE BEGINNING FOR DRINKING I THINK, AND IT REVVED HIM UP, WOWWWWWWWWWW KILLED IT, SCARY GOOD!

"Guess You Guys Aren't Ready For That Yet, But Your Kids Are Gonna Love It"

[@markdouglas1994]

This is one of the best... and craziest ... guitar solos I have ever seen... wow...just, wow... Don Kelley is lucky he was not impaled 😁...

[@oaeoeaoRust]

Really one of the best videos on KZbin

[@sheilajohnson6913]

Miss you JD! You’re awesome!!!

[@EatAPeach72]

Seen him open up for the Allman Betts Band last week in Detroit

[@DannyBrooks1]

JD Should have a million views!

[@ireneruthfox]

J D is one bad man. freaking amazing.

[@philm.2812]

Holy smokes! I've seen JD twice in the last couple of years doing his own stuff - very cool in its own way. But I didn't know about this version of him!

[@lifeonmars45]

Typing with my jaw dropped on the floor...best 7 minutes 34 seconds I have spent in I don't know how long.

[@leftwrite]

I've seen a number of great guitarists play that song with Don Kelley, but nobody, and I mean nobody, owns it like JD Simo. He goes to places very few are willing or are able to go.

[@druwk]

😃 JD off the leash...AMAZING!

[@pharmerdavid1432]

After watching about a half-dozen Don Kelly vids of this song, my hat is off to JD..!! EDIT: After watching this yet again...a few more times...all I can say is...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hippydippy]

Absolutely off the charts... WOW!

[@arky25]

I Absolutely cannot get enough of J.D. Simo and The Don Kelley Band. They are and INCREDIBLE band. If you're ever at Robert's Western World, you MUST check them out.

[@liberteaskrollz]

Awesome musicianship and camaraderie! Thanks for sharing!

[@tammydouglas6831]

J.D. IS SOME KIND OF AWESOME! BEST VERSION OF GHOST RIDERS I EVER HEARD! 'I'VE SEEN HIM PERFORM THIS MANY TIMES IN NASHVILLE. HEY GO IT WORTH THE TRIP!

[@RobertFairweatherLuvMachine]

That was so nice I had to watch it twice. Dayum! Simo...

[@Floridays1]

I was there in August and when they broke out into this???? THE ENTIRE STREET RAN IN,,,,the whole place got off their chairs and I swear Robert's came off it's foundation!!!! Never mind the rest of the bars....we spent each night perched here!!! THE BEST!!!!

[@Stewartchampion]

He plays it differently every time as well.great stuff ..go on simo

[@bjohnson515]

I recommended Roberts and Don Kelley to someone. Someone overheard me and said "that's a tourist trap". So? He always had the best players and it was great entertainment. What's better than a good seat at the bar, a fried bologna sandwich and a yuengling and great tele?

[@KevinLambguitar]

Grat camera clarity. One of the best existing J. D. clips yet. Can you believe he is only 26? His career is just getting started.

[@gsmeeuwsen]

JD Simo is a MONSTER....

[@yalahamike]

The very best performance of all time JD....just wonderful

[@Jonjzi]

This guy is my hero.

[@lindenjohnson1515]

freakinnnnnnn AMAAAAAAZZZZZIIIIINNNGGGGGGGG!!!

[@jackedery9652]

Insane and Amazing .....

[@druwk]

LOVE IT! When JD goes off, it is amazing. Love how out-there he is in Don’s band. Really exciting to watch.

[@loscrimefighter1899]

A reporter once asked Jimi Hendrix, "how does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world" to which Hendrix replied, "I dont know, you'll have to ask JD Simo".....😊

[@seangillen920]

That's the way to get the crowd to buy another round.

[@Voxshades]

My Gawd,,,,That was effing great. Simo rocks...nuff said

[@eddiem4868]

JD really went all out on this one.

[@arky25]

The Don Kelley Band is AWESOME. There are no words to describe just how Incredible JD Simo is. I just wish that dopey guy in the white shirt (in front) would have sat down).

[@WendellBurkhart-g9v]

This band has got it together

[@toastoftowne1076]

We’ve come a long way from Your Cheatin Heart. Giddy up!

[@muutron5253]

Beyond the beyonder.

[@countrygal4205]

Wow!

[@Floridays1]

@Floridays1 TOTALLY agree....I have to come back to this video, (by the way, unbelievable quality) The place could not have held another person when JD started...I have no idea why he isn't recording and on the charts. Here is a most unbelievable guitaist...if you've never been to Roberts in Nashville, make it a point to get there...you will be surprised beyond belief!!!! Thanks to my best buddies for taking me on a WONDERFUL trip to Nashville!!!!!!!

[@dedmunds2323]

JD Simo is a BAD ASS!

[@Rski1234]

Oh shit ! JD kicks ass !

[@70swildchildvictoria13]

First time hearing these awesome guys, they can surely kick up some dust 💥🔥👍

[@jmdosh]

Great to see J D again. I was lucky to catch him playing in Flagstaff while he was still in high school. Hee looks great!! ...and funny too.

[@cameronjm]

[@josephm.noviello1996]

Crazy

[@alexandersitarski5886]

Holy fuck

[@TurquoiseArmies]

Shit got real at 5.30

[@kerrywheeler5664]

Wow ..just Wow !!

[@tpd134]

Watching this makes me think of Marty McFly and his rendition of Johnny B. Goode for his dads high school class, and Marty loses control and goes of the deep end. Yeah That part. ha ha ah

[@bigtsshackfestival9563]

Good God !!!!!!

[@budmiller646]

Great Jam ..yep

[@TheBhannah]

This is how you impress your boss !

[@rohw0016]

more vids i watch more i love this guy. you should hear his knowledge on vintage instruments. a damn good career in front of him.. stay away from the drugs tho.

[@rks4011]

WhooHoo J.D!

[@shakedownstreet48]

If this is the JD Simo i use to see him when he was still in high school. He was playing blues. Just a kid i use to see him at The Railhead in Vegas.

[@artheriford]

The first time I saw/heard JD was with the Lexington Lab Band on KZbin. He tore up the Luther Perkins' parts on the Johnny Cash songs.

[@jimmyc5498]

Beast

[@nicholasmistic5440]

Looks like Robbens Tele

[@sjwillerton]

@kevland1 Thanks! Filmed on a Canon S95, if you're interested in that sort of thing...

[@tpd134]

From 1:30 to around 2:00 the dude dancing in the bottom left corner cracks me up.

[@jayloiselle9281]

Just another Monday night at Roberts

[@carlhuffman6792]

King chainsaw pickin gorpy wippy wappy riffs

[@KevinLambguitar]

Ya know, if Led Zepplin had played shit-kicker music, this is exactly what it would have looked like! Love it!

[@DustinHaggerty-lj1ix]

Anybody know if he's running ANY pedals or just cranking that amp???

[@EatAPeach72]

Good Gracious -wolfman Jack

[@canstarzplayerz2691]

THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO NASVILLE...Lord have mercy

[@mikeshanermusic]

🤯👍

[@MercuryTrickshotting]

Right at the end, was that the incident when he cracked the tele in half?

[@locomike1219]

holy shit, my s95 could have done that? impresive

[@drddh1]

Played all the notes

[@hasserl]

WTF??? Really?

[@lesselp]

4:46 secret fuzz switch

[@mikesguitargearchannel5692]

I quit!

[@Whiteyholmes08]

JD put on about 75 pounds since then…

[@earlyjamesandthelatest7470]

75 lbs of tone. Chill out

[@lowdeedee5065]

This guy looks like a nut case but I wouldnt mind him playing a while in my band !

[@joeygonzalez9586]

Drugs ,alcohol, teenaged missing, who knows, very good solo, excesive act

[@curtiseverett1671]

good coke

[@amadeusrocks4967]

song ruined

[@pjakobsen]

wow - a country guitar player who doesn’t play cheezy licks - who knew?

[@WendySchroederDenverCo]

I enjoyed the skill and performance of the guy on the left. The other guy I just wanted to punch him because of his whistling. That really hurts my ears and slightly diminishes the talented guy.

[@56davidwright]

Are these guys only pretending not to be embarrassed?...or do l just not get American subtlety..

[@soofitnsexy]

perhaps the greatest solo..........ever

[@joshgray3581]

This more cornnery than corn on the cob

[@soofitnsexy]

watch LUKE ...THE NEW GUY AT ROBERTS...HE TOOK EVERYTHING FROM JD!!! JD is the very best!!!!

[@TheNewGuy7575]

WOW!

[@mijlaid]

WOW!
