Song by Gerry McGee "I’m Coming Home"

[@かずりん-t6i]

ジェリーありがとう😊。弾き語りの時は、歌唱力もあるひとで、スーパーマンですね。いろんなことができる才能の塊りのようなひとなのに、ほんとうに残念です。

[@SeanChristopherMcGee]

I really miss my dad!

[@高橋実希]

偉大なギターリストです

[@peko9341]

私もです！大好きです❤️❤️❤️今もこれからもずぅ~と❤❤❤❤

[@chan0995]

ジェリーが亡くなったのを今日知りました。 私は中学１年の時にベンチャーズを知り、はじめてライブに行きました(その時でもう50周年を越えていました)。それから毎年のようにベンチャーズのコンサートに行き、ギターにものめり込みました。 ドンが日本に来なくなり、ノーキーが亡くなって、ジェリーも亡くなって本当に寂しく思います。 心からご冥福をお祈りいたします。

[@SeijiNarita0207]

ジェリー･マギーの演奏した京都の恋や雨の御堂筋、大好きでした。 すらりとした体躯に良い笑顔、その笑顔も魅力的でした。 安らかにお眠りください。

[@SeanChristopherMcGee]

Missing you Dad!!! You were so far away and we couldn't get to you! but now you are even farther away! :_(

[@kelseymathias3881]

He gave happiness to so many people in person, and continues to do so through his recordings 🧡 I listen to him on YT every day.

[@jglee6721]

Your Dad brought a lot of joy to people's lives. Thank you and Thank you. RIP

[@rickf.9253]

Somewhere in heaven there is one bodacious band playing with Gerry, Mel, Nokie, and Bob. Thanks guys for all that you gave us! Gerry, you were a class act, and you are missed by so many.

[@毛利竜介]

改めてジェリーマギーの存在や音楽性を振り返ると素晴らしいですね!ベンチャーズ加入前はプレスリーやモンキーズと共にスタジオミュージシャンとして活躍しましたね。

[@柴田雄一-x5q]

寂しいです😢　向こうに行っても　メルさん　ボブさん　ノーキーさんと　楽しくやって下さいねぇ～😥

[@MosriteCharlie]

There are times in your life when special people touch our life. Gerry McGee and Nokie Edwards were two. Without these two masters I probably would not have taken up guitar. The band that launched a thousand bands is so underrated. These two will be missed.

[@wayne1074]

Gerry, thank you for all the years of wonderful music you gave us and the refreshing smiles you gave to the whole world. Your love of music and people will always be appreciated. You were one of the reasons I loved The Ventures and why I picked up the guitar. You have done well my friend and you gave so much to the world of music and provided inspiration for future young guitarists. Now, go and rest in peace knowing you fulfilled your journey in life. You will always hold a very special place in the hearts of all the musicians you inspired and the listeners of great music. The Ventures Are Forever ! Rest in Peace and God Bless.

[@ポンポンポン吉-d9w]

残念です。もう一度ヴェンチャーズとして演奏聞かせて欲しかったです。ご冥福お祈り申し上げます。

[@wayneseay7862]

Gerry is now in the great company of Venture band mates...Mel Taylor...Bob Bogle...& Nokie Edwards that have passed away...he was great guitarist...person that had a God given talent that will live on among his fans with videos & recordings of his performances ...praying for his Family now & in the days ahead...thank you Gerry...RIP!!!

[@れろるんししゃも]

ジェリー！ ご冥福をお祈り申し上げます…

[@中廣豊]

ジェリーが亡くなった悲しみを共有できる人達がいて良かったです。 ところで恥ずかしながらこの曲は初めて聴きました。とてもエモーショナル。未発表曲ですか？

[@pg123ab]

Rest In Peace. He was a Great musician.

[@kasakatyattupi3407]

ご冥福をお祈り申し上げます

[@MosriteCharlie]

Asa member of the Ventures, Gerry inspired many to learn guitar, was an ambassador to other countries where their music knew no language barriers, and now joins Mel, Nokie, and Bob. He will surely be missed.

[@johnwelch557]

Love this guy's playing style. A true gentleman. My condolences to the family. RIP Jerry

[@jimmymurphy7789]

Truly one of the most gifted Guitarists ever - such Finesse. RIP Gerry McGee - thank you for your great Contribution & Inspiration.

[@juniorsnyder404]

I never met Gerry, but knew a lot about him. I lived not far from where he was born and raised. I have always been a fan of his. We Cajuns will miss you dearly. RIP great one.

[@kelseymathias3881]

Gerry's smile can light up the darkest day and night, to say nothing of his guitar playing! We are so lucky to have had him here. Heaven's turn now 😎

[@carlosaragones953]

Gery ❤, gran guitarrista ! Que video más bonito❤, me encanta su paso por The Ventures. Un beso allá donde esté. Gery forever ❤❤❤

[@MultiVinyljunkie]

God bless you Gerry. I wish we had succeeded in bringing the ventures to England. I would loved to have met you,Bob, Don and Leon,..still, maybe next time. We didn't know that you had passed until today (9/21/21). Both Ray Martin and myself are deeply saddened by this and offer our sincere condolences to your family and the ventures, and we give thanks to you all, for all the music, inspiration and joy you brought to us and the world over. God Bless. I wish you well. ❤️

[@nigelduckworth406]

Brilliant player. I have been a guitarist for 55 years and tried to copy many of Gerry's tunes but Gerry was something else and more. RIP. Sadly missed.

[@LucioOliveira1]

Grande Gerry Mc Gee. Um dos maiores solistas que o mundo já viu. No mesmo nível do saudoso Nokie Edwards. Meus sentimentos aos familiares. Que Deus os conforte, pois agora ele está tocando para os anjos lá no céu. Descanse em paz amigo......

[@DaBoyeee]

Gerry, Thank you for the memories but most of all, thank you for the wonderful friendship that we had! I’m gonna miss you much my dear friend!

[@DaBoyeee]

@Billy Reed Google him! You've heard his playing on several of the The Monkees hits, including their theme song (Hey Hey We're The Monkees), Last Train To Clarksville, Not Your Steppin' Stone, etc..., to The Ventures stuff and tons more!

[@木田一夫-n4y]

ジエリーは、昔エルビスのバックギターやってただけ有って歌のバックは、一流だった､

[@jman1428]

There was no one better to fill the shoes of Nokie Edwards when Nokie left the band , a great player that gave Jerry Donahue lessons years ago, also a session player and movie actor. Very sad.

[@noramaritzacamposnieves9859]

Noooooo..... God!!!! 😢😢😢😭😭😭😢😭 Gerry McGee always we'll remember you and you're music.... R.I.P Gerry....😢😭

[@genez429]

Perfect song for his funeral... He now is before the one who created his fingers.

So very sad to see. His guitar lines were things of beauty and his writing bordered on genius.

[@dannyroberts8259]

What do you mean, “bordered”? It was plain genius.

[@GOMBE3]

何と、今このビデオを見るまで、ジェリー逝去を知らなかった。急いで検索。東京でリハーサル中に心臓発作で倒れたようだ。ノーキーより1歳若い突然の死。まさに音楽と共に生きた一生で、ある意味ピンピンコロリだったのかもしれない。　いわゆるオリジナル・フォーではないが、60年代からメンバーとしてノーキーと交代で入ったり出たり。自分としては、広い意味でオリジナル・メンバーだとずっと思っている。 そもそもベンチャーズにはオリジナル・ツーはあっても、オリジナル・フォーはおかしかったから。メル・テイラーは名ドラマーだがベンチャーズにとって第3代目のドラマー。　オリジナル・メンバーではなかった。（初代は当時17歳の高校生ドラマー。のちの空軍中将。） ベンチャーズが日本向けメロディーを作曲していくうえで多大な貢献をしたジェリー。アメリカインディアンの血筋を引くらしい。その影響で東洋風メロディーにもDNA的になじみがあったのかも。　巨星落つ、の衝撃に今襲われています。　昨晩もベンチャーズCD（'65年ライブ）をこのニュースを知らずに繰り返し聴いていました。 Find this video just incidentally right now. Did not know his passing away till I opened this one. With this sudden unforeseen tragic news I'm completely struck with astonishment and deep sorrow. Gerry's contribution to creating songs for Japanese audiences such as Ginza Light and so on was so great. R.I.P. Gerry. AND thanks indeed for this uploading. from a long time Ventrures fan in Japan.

[@DreamGT-st6qt]

この人が日本歌謡曲作ったらしいけど、この人日本人？ ベンチャーズにおける功績は大きかった。
