junior brown & beach boys 409

[@johnnysalter8305]

You know you're good when you have the Beach Boys as backup to their own hit.

[@patriciajrs46]

Amen to that!!

[@Frankincensedjb123]

Jr Brown is country, rock, metal, jazz, funk,fusion all in one. One of the best guitar players working today.

[@keithclark2136]

Frankincensed AND THEN SOME.

[@BillCrane-z5q]

And don't forget surf music!

[@mavjimbo]

Saw him live at the Santa Monica pier

[@Diesel-ship23]

Only Junior brown can make a Surf classic into a country song. You made it when The Beach Boys back you up on vocals

[@sgtpep5]

You know you're good when the Beach Boys are your back up singers..

[@bartschwartz7217]

sgtpep5 knows his way around pedal steel

[@seldomseensavage3459]

Bart Schwartz except it’s not a pedal steel

[@arlingtonhynes]

You know you’re good when you’re singing backup for Junior Brown.

[@oregonfordguy9812]

@@seldomseensavage3459 junior designed it. its part steel part guitar. he has a name for it.

[@seldomseensavage3459]

@@oregonfordguy9812 that’s right. Just saying it’s not a pedal steel

[@conniecolburn5534]

Junior took down the house with this CLASSIC!!!!! What a musician!!! Underrated is an understatement!!!

[@wvb-woody7552]

I don't think I have EVER seen a KZbin post with almost 9 million likes and not ONE single dislike. When I'm down, I put my earphones in and watch this amazing video. I miss Carl, so much!

[@NeilCrouse99]

First, its 11 thousand, not million likes. And the thumb downs don't register any numbers...

[@jeffhargrave2094]

I'm not a country&western guy, but I like junior brown, he's kinda rockabilly & I like rockabilly!,I also like the beach boys in the early days when the music was basic & pure, & thanks to Roger Christianson for the hot rod tunes he helped with

[@danialhowe9814]

junior is one of the few who can say "Here, let me show you how to play YOUR song"

[@jayterry7291]

Junior;"409"?...hold my tequila".

[@terrygarvin1980]

Exactly!

[@jpenn466]

Heck yea

[@speedracer2336]

Big BB fan, but none of them, past and present, can match his guitar playing!

[@joeyb4ever]

That solo was pure smoke. Outstanding.

[@JD-vv7tq]

Junior Brown and the Beach boys killed it on 409 !

[@chadboaz9172]

Loved Junior Brown from the first time I heard him. Underrated is an understatement. He's awesome

[@davidteller7681]

Such a great combination, Junior's baritone/bass and Beach Boys mid/upper level harmonies

[@hmackie6823]

he blew the Beach boys away...u know he's good

[@generalzod7959]

Junior Brown is the best guitarist you've probably never heard of. I've seen him perform live and he's simply amazing. He is truly a master of the guitar.

[@Bucky1836]

I wanna see him and Tommy Emmanuel on same stage 🤤

[@jmhproductions7335]

Our lifetime!!!! Probably the best…legit

[@carterr63]

Junior Brown did a fantastic job on a classic song. Without a doubt he blew away the Beach boys. They definitely were not expecting this performance. Great job Junior!!

[@harrywood8196]

Absolutely the best rendition of this Beachboys hit i have ever heard. Junior nailed it.

[@Carly2]

It doesn't matter what Junior plays or sings, he's absolutely terrific! I LOVE his music!!

[@mustlovepretzels]

alberto huerta: thanks for posting. Cheers!

[@DMH031956]

Junior Brown. "The Jimi Hendrix of Twang" Outstanding!

[@eb311235]

Ernest Tub was for my dad and his age, Jr. Brown is for me and my age. This music NEVER goes out of style!!!!

[@1ronhall]

I’d say Mr Brown now owns 409! Great rendition!

[@michaellerman6349]

This is great , the beach boys and junior brown should tour

[@mrdap1313]

I love the way Junior gets after it on the steel guitar - really kicks it for the song!

[@harrywood8196]

One of the best renditions I've heard to date.

[@harrywood8196]

Love Juniors deep voice on Lead, it just does it for me. Great job Guys!

[@irishguy2725]

I love it! Junior is great, as are the Beach Boys. Takes me back to my race-ready 1964 Chevy Biscayne 409 sedan, 425 hp, Doug's headers, etc. Ran fantastic in AA stock here in Detroit many years ago.

[@prestonbroadwell382]

We used to say you can't put high test gas in a biscuit

[@tedecker3792]

Two door post all the way!

[@tedecker3792]

I was driving along listening to The Beach Boys, then I crossed the Texas state line and it became Junior Brown!

[@namnoiz]

This guy is amazing both instrumentally and vocally. With a five Beach Boys backing we got six of the best singers on the planet!!!

[@coldshot1723]

How cool for them to let Junior do their song and also join him in the video. Great to see Brian Wilson too. The Beach Boys are a great American icon.

[@geckoproductions4128]

Didn't think anything could beat the Beach Boys, but I'm a Texas boy and Junior Brown AND the Beach Boys sound GREAT to me. BTW had a 59 chevy with a 409 back in the day.

[@keithcarpenter3218]

Born to sing this song.

[@davidforsythe3037]

Awesome! Was lucky enough to see Junior Brown in Canada in the 90’s . Amazing musician, singer , and show

[@danieljarrelljr5640]

Junior Browns talent should be a national treasure.

[@rongwynne3824]

Seeing Carl smile while singing, shows the real joy of Beach boys when they were singing, he loved it.

[@jrlawton324]

Carl was fantastic. Doesn't get the credit he deserves as a guitarist or vocalist.

[@teleology59]

This master craftsman deserves way more credit than he is given, unbelieveabe talent. Does the work of two men.

[@barnabywylde2224]

guitarist, steel guitarist, vocalist = three men

[@richardcurrin8940]

He just sounds like he really ought to be a huge star. If that makes any sense

[@jong0000]

a little bit of George Jones in the lad...

[@richardbrucemusic]

He can write a little, too!

[@ericbelliveau8778]

Just found this literally played it 100 times the past couple of days love it

[@tk-zb6br]

I'm guessing the Beach Boys had more fun with Junior than they did the original version

[@tomburns41]

Had to be a blast for them. Great version.

[@DeloresLandeis-kx5fu]

Best of the best.

[@EddieLeeGrovesMusic]

Winner of the coolest music video I have seen so far this year!!!!!!

[@edwardprice140]

Where do you get balls big enough to ask the Beach Boys to be your backup singers ? WOW !

[@dennisvails366]

Tremendous respect for each other's talents. I love it.

[@scrien1704]

Love your comment HA That's when you know your damn good!!! I think this is about the best version of the song. Love it!!

[@oldguy3074]

In Texas

[@keithclark2136]

Edward Price JB HAS EXCEPTIONAL TALENT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BALLS LOL. IAM SURE THE BB FELT HONORED TO HAVE THE TALENT OF JB TO CARRY ON THEIR TRADITION. ONLY TRUE MUSICIANS WOULD UNDERSTAND THIS.

[@gregghorner9107]

LOL and the guys were loving it. Great fun!

[@Towmaster2013]

Junior Brown. One of the GREATS

[@Hermes89]

I was wondering why they were in different rooms. . . then i realized that one single ambient can't bear all that much of awesomeness

[@bingoandrews8951]

I’m just going by my impression here, but I believe that The Beach Boys are having a ball with this. The idea that Junior Brown was able to give these legendary Artists a grin in return for all they gave us makes me happy

[@AgentJayZ]

It's past bed time, and I am trapped, watching and loving Junior Brown videos... again. So glad I got to see him live!

[@Labeyesing]

Love this version to death! Just glad that the BB's stood in with Junior on this one and loved doing it. Love the Beach Boys and their originalality, harmony and what they did for rock n roll. Love how Junior Brown shows how much he appreciates it too.

[@RobOnBusiness]

Ditto to all that!!

[@wvb-woody7552]

I so miss Carl!

​@@wvb-woody7552me too. The soul of The Beach Boys.

[@jamiehalifax4954]

This is too cool ! The respect they have for him says it all !!

[@jmshaw357]

Junior Brown brings a lot of horsepower whenever he performs--lots of vocal power too. He's a one man powerhouse, glad thew BB's liked him enough to back him!

[@masterofdisaster2272]

Junior plays music. Doesn't matter what it is, he just shreds it.

[@jodycarter2271]

Ever since I first started hearing junior brown in the90s I've loved his music he's awesome on that guitsteel 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😱😱

[@ericdebord]

Life is just so much more fun with Junior Brown in yer hears. God bless JB.

[@2009metisman]

Who was having the most fun on this video? Love collaborations. The Beach Boys are really digging being the back-up singers, how can you top that. Go, Junior, go!

[@tedecker3792]

Giddy up giddy up giddy up junior brown

[@machtschnell7452]

What an incredible moment. This is a little gemstone combining different eras and styles in a brilliant collaboration. Hopefully there is more to be discovered.

[@TheSupergpop]

Now, here's a combo I can listen too. Becoming a big fan of Junior's. Always been a fan of the Beach Boys and surf music in general. Killer version of one of my all time favorites. Y'all rock!!!

[@ShadowPlay1919]

I have always loved Junior Brown. BTW he does the "Voice of Hazzard County" in one of the Dukes of Hazzard movies. can't remember if it is the first one or the prequel.

[@jamiehalifax4954]

Best harmony you'll ever hear

[@michealridenoour5320]

Bangin! Best version ever! Junior Brown the country guitarist from another planet and the Beach Boys America's boys! Bangin!

[@Totally_B]

Junior is in a class all by himself!

[@jerrykemp]

I had a 63 Chevy Impala with a 409.... Wow! Those were the days my friend!!!!! Rock On! Love the song.... JJK

[@williameddy2826]

The 1963 Dodge 413 Hemi could get to 60 in 5.2 seconds .I imagine the Chevrolet was pretty close to that .

[@virgilsantos2574]

jerrykemp 8

[@jimmac6054]

Oops. If I don't do it somebody will. That 413 was a wedge head. The 3rd generation Chrysler Hemi came in 426 a couple years or so later. First generation started in '52, the little Dodge Red Ram & Desoto at around 241 cu in. Those were popular on the Bonneville salt flats. Second were the Firepowers in 354 & 392 and 331 I believe it was. They ended for awhile in '58. Those were the slingshot dragster era motors to have.......But this right here is the best take of this tune.

[@jarhead4God]

I had a 65 corvette with a h.p 396 w/dual quads and she took a back seat to no other street machine. Oww! And 'THOSE 'were THE DAYS!! OH TO BE ABLE TO GO BACK TO THOSE DAYS WHEN THINGS WERE SO MUCH SIMPLER.

Totally cool!!! Junior's great! Love the Beach Boys.

THANK YOU!! One of my favorite songs in the world, and- Nothin could catch the tears of happy laughter that giddyapped down my face when I came across and watched this. Thanks to BB's and JB for coming across with this: it's a real gift to the world of historical serious fun (fun fun).

I saw Junior a few weeks ago in Montana. Awesome gig! Highly recommend you catching him when/if the chance arises in your area.

[@Mr1963corvette]

The man from Texas is an unheralded artist.An amazing virtuoso of unimaginable talent. From that unique gitsteel that he designed he blows away conventional guitarists and steel slide players. That fantastic deep, rich resonant bass voice of his to his blend of rock a billy to Country Texas Swing there is no match or equal to Junior Brown. His amazing style of playing and singing has an audience transfixed and mesmerized as soon as this laconic gentleman walks onto any stage. We are truly blessed to have an amazing icon like this humble down to earth artist
