Humbleness goes a long way in this world. Guys like Chip are rare. Class act all the way.

You sure could see Chip missed Jerry like a brother. Truly I love these interviews because they are honest from the heart.

What a sweet man Chip is. And then he just casually lays down the licks. Really enjoyed this.

Made my morning. My friend John, jazz musician in Nashville, told me when he was like 15, he was so proud, this was probanly like early 70s, maybe before, , that he had learned to play Jerry Reed style and he would show up at guutar stores around Nashville and play The Claw or something. A friend of Jerry told Jerry about him. A store owner got his number for Jerry. Jerry called his house and invited him to his office. He went down, Jerry Reed handed him his guitar and said play something. He did. Jerry said you're playing it wrong. He taught him how to play it correctly along with 4 or 5 more of his licks. Told him to keep it up.

Thank you Joe for sharing this back story with us. Absolutely amazing.

Jerry Reed was great. He was one of those guys that pretty much played himself in movies, and he was good at it. lol As a guitarist, if he isnt on the list of greatest players ever, the list is incomplete.

Loved this interview. I sure miss Uncle Chip!!

The channel always shows us the legends behind the legends. Thanks, Joe!

Great stuff. Brilliant guy

These interviews and stories are priceless! Thank you big time for your passion to share these videos of amazing music history.

WOW! I could listen to and enjoy a lot more of his stories. Sadly, you can't ask him for more.

It's awesome to see these videos. Men that were men, but still had a deep appreciation and love for one another. Glad I was taught the same way.

Thank you for posting. Dam God Bless you Chip

Great interviewers uncover great stories! Jerry was amazing!🎸

Joe what a beautiful photo of Jerry and Chet. Says it all. These stories are priceless. Aren't we so blessed to have walked the earth the same time as these men. God bless. 🇮🇪

Thats beautiful picking

Thanks for these great videos!

Love it!

I knew Chip for years, he was such a gentle man. When I saw this come up on KZfaq it brought tears to my eyes because I miss this man. The stories he shared with me over the years is something I hold dear.. Miss you Chipper

Great interview Joe! You Georgia Boys sure have shaken things up in Music City! Thanks!💫

I love these stories. Puts everything into perspective and makes me appreciate their music a little more. Thanks Joe!

Respect. Thankyou.

Great stuff Thanks Joe

This was wonderful. You could see that Chip Young was visibly upset talking about losing Jerry after so many years of close friendship. It was great to hear that "lost" Jerry Reed instrumental- another funky Reed classic.

That was terrific Joe! You can tell how much Chip misses Jerry, very heartfelt. Obviously, a naturally talented & gifted guitar player. Thanks for another great interview! Hope that all is well....

This is great. I haven't had a chance to check out your channel for awhile. Thanks for posting.

Rest in Peace, Chip and Jerry. You were both master players and class individuals.

It's unbelievable. These interviews are incredible!! And Chip's playing and heart to fire up the guitar/pay tribute to Jerry Reed. Fantastic!! J.C. = Boss Man

I played the California Mid State Fair, with guitarist, Brian Lonbeck, back in 86 and we shared the stage with Jerry. We ended up sitting together with Jerry at a coffee shop the next morning. Jerry was one of the funniest guys I ever met and as nice as could be...Almost forgot to mention, Merle Haggard was there as well. Brian had been a student of both Merle Travis and Joe Maphis.

That is incredible! Thanks Joe.

Could listen to him pick all day….

I've always said that if I could play like any guitarist in the world, I'd want to play like Jerry Reed. I never met Jerry but I sure do miss him.

Wow!

I've said it many times and I'll go to the grave preaching it : Jerry Reed Hubbard was the single greatest entertainer that ever lived. The man's resume can not be beat. And to this day, the finest fingerpicker that's ever picked up a guitar. Much like losing SRV, I comfort myself that he was here and shared his life's work with us all. There are only a few true guitar gods, Reed is the Zeus of that list.

Wow, Jerry Reed was a force of nature. Great to hear the reminiscing from Chip...

Fantastic segment as always! Fantastic series!

What a gem of a man... I’d love to drink coffee with this guy, and listen to his stories.

How cool is this!?! The picture of Jerry and Chet at 2:45 is worth a thousand words. I think it tells you everything you need to know about these two wonderful people. And it's inspiring to hear about it all from Chip's perspective. A legend he was, too. Fun fact: Chip's given first name was also Jerry.

Picks it like falling off a log!!! God given talent!!! TCB FOREVER

This interview was truly wonderful. Listening to a musician, Chip Young, talk about how he shared and discussed music with other musicians through the years particularly with Jerry Reed. Listening to him play a song that Jerry Reed wrote but never released was awesome.Listening to these interviews about the love of music and the love of the musicians who created this great music, is a reprieve from the mad violent world we now live in. Go Well

What a great interview, thank you🤓

Chip Young was my grandfathers uncle!

You know we love your channel ... Stuff like this. Incredible 👍

Powerful

Wonderful

these clips with Chip are so great

Nice interview.

Very enjoyable.

I may be wrong (probably are) but the picking technique sounds similar to "Fine on my mind" tune. I´d love that he recorded that song, it sounded pretty good, thanks a lot to Chip Young for showing us the song with is amazing picking and sharing the wonderful story.

I've never heard of Chip until today, June 6, 2021. Man not only is he a fine finger picker but he's got some great stories. 2 thumbs up.

How cool was that? And now I'm off to hear Jerry!! Thanks Joe!

what a fantastic guitar player , great stuff joe...

Just too cool! He’s a a guitar man!

Hey Joe, Sounds like a Good Song. Rare Earth Deserves a place in the Museum. Cheers

“I miss him every day...”

Great video thanks i just love Chip talking about Chet and Jerry

Jerry Reed was a great musician. A musician's musican.

I just watched the Garth Brooks 2 part series on Netflix for the second time. It inspired me so much. I don't know if I've ever been so touched by any one person. If you talk to him please let him know that its really inspiring people like me to be a better person and like you mentioned on what Jerry was saying to you. But with that said. I love this video and all of the work that you do. Thank you Joe. 👍🏻😎

Jerry was amazing, that record he released in 80 was really good.

thank you this little picking he does inspires me to practice more😅

As usual, another gem. Joe you're the man! Now I know where all the Atlanta pickers went to...Nashville.(in all honesty when I lived in Atlanta, I found very few guitarists, who were accomplished. I was young hoping to steal a few licks! Seems there are plenty down there now.) I was raised in OKC there were great guitarists there, I was good at rhythm but barely passable at lead.(Still like that after 50+ yrs. ) I was just an okay player, but in Atlanta in mid 80s people oohed & aahhed.(not me). Did meet a great bassist from Rome, he'd played since a kid in his Daddy's Gospel group, Greg Carter, & some killer drummers as well. Alas many moons ago....thanks again Joe, your vids are quite an inspiration, as well as teaching me something. Keep on, keeping on.

Nice likeable fella. Gorgeous picker too!

Jerry Reed is the greatest human being, guitar player, song writer, and singer on the planet.

Jerry Reed had his own sound. Chip said it when he said all of that Jerry Reed stuff!

Very interesting and I have this CD at 3:52 mark .

Jerry’s gotta be one of the best to ever touch the guitar

Joe, love the content! Also love the American flag pin with a Masonic emblem in it. SMIB brother!

This was Fabulous! (I have a question) ? Years ago when Jerry & Chet would come through Knoxville & play at the Dean Hill Country Club Jerry would always play a great song called “Cadillac and a Hershey Bar” Does anyone know if Jerry ever recorded this song? Or if he taught it to anyone? I’d love to know. I used to make Jerry & Chet-DJANGO tapes back in the day. Back then I’d ran across the best quality show ever of Django recorded in Belgium. Chet called me from his Dr Jim Coleman’s office to thank me. Wow did that ever Make my day! Over the phone I played a song I wrote inspired by after spending a day w Chet called Vivian (named after my mom) & Coleman figured it out over the phone & played it back to me. Lol Chet told me that he turned my old buddy Phil Keaggy onto something called the JAM MAN. Some delay box. He also thanked me for an old picture I had blown up from when he was on the old WNOX show dressed like a girl. Lol Chet was mine and everybody’s Hero! What a man! Chet said he would’ve loved to tackle that Django Belgium show if his other fingers were working better. I reminded him that Django could only properly use his first two fingers. He laughed & said “Well you’ve got a point there” his voice by then was really quiet & a little slurry & when we hung up I was afraid it would be the last time we talked & I got teary. I was right. I was buying a tweed amp some yrs later from Keith at Gruhn’s & asked about Chet’s Dr Coleman & he told me that he’d fell down some stairs & broke his neck & died. I was in shock. Last time I saw Jerry was in Pigeon Forge,Tn. I traded him that Belgium show for a autographed pic of him. He told all the bandmates “Son we gonna be listening to Django all the way back to Nashville so get ready!” My buddy Doc Livingston once brought Jerry to my show some yrs before that and I saw Doc sneak in & sit on the back row. I had no idea Jerry was beside him so everytime the light would hit my tele I’d shine the light in Doc & his buddys eyes. His buddy would take his hat off & wave it at me. Later when I found out it was Jerry I was so embarrassed. Kinda glad I didn’t know it was him then cause ida been a nervous wreck! I idolized him! I have a mini cassette tape somewhere of Chet talking about my guitar teacher & his old band mate buddy Atchey Burns-Jethro’s brother. I called him Pappy. Chet speaking of The String Dusters & The Colorado Mnt boys. Man where have the years gone? Well I love this program! Keep up the great work! ❤️ God bless

I'm gonna love this one. Does anyone know which studio Polk Salad Annie was recorded in, and did Tony Joe White play the guitar part/parts himself, and how many takes it involved? I'd love to hear a fly-on-the-wall or better story on that one. Thanks for your great content.

No denying it, that's sounds like a Jerry tune.

Great interview. I think i have a Jerry Reed album that was recorded at "Youngun Sound" or something. Would Chip Young be the same "Youngun" ?

This is probably the only man Jerry Reed made as a protege to his music legacy. Reed was unbeatable and not copied by anyone accept this man.. RIP" JR.

I love this interview because I love ol' Jerry. I had no idea that Reed and Young were so tight. That lick that Young plays @ 6:55 is, I'm pretty sure, Jerry's song "Fine On My Mind". kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pN58qNB4y7nMh58.html . I also miss Jerry every day. He was simply irreplaceable.

Loving that J45. Anyone know what year model, it looks like mine from 61

Joe, who was it you were interviewing who was talking about Jerry Reed playing Guitar Man for Elvis? They couldn't find him and he was out fishing?

That unknown tune sounds a bit like the backing on "take a walk " another Jerry Reed song

Hey Joe, although we've never met, heard of stories (all good) of you. We share a mutual friend, Ill just say Posey in columbus, if you have time, could you give him a ring, he's had it rough these past 3 or 4 months, it would really be a big, big picker upper. Thanks

Joe, did you ever interview Toy Caldwell?

When your hot your hot and when your not your not............ Thanks Joe...

Did you ever hear of Billy Charles?

Someone needs to record Black Water Swamp. Just hearing it you know Jerry wrote it, but it should be released by someone.

Casually plays something no one else can play then says you know…..“All that Jerry reed stuff”

That tune he played around 7 minutes bears a resemblance to Zeppelin’s Black Water Side which in turn was ripped off from Bert Janch which he ripped off from old folk tunes.

Is Chip Young still alive?

is chip kin to reggie

You should respect the viewers and stop making short clips, run one show.

Another Travis finger picker. Merle influenced a lot of people.
