This man is not a guitarist he's a musician! Can you people hear his singing?!? He's got it man!!

Jack is testifying with his distinctive blues phrasing. In his tasty ol riffs. Both. Sharp as a samurai sword and yet those riffs sound like they were dipped in a golden honey glaze Boyh sweet and savory Giving testament to. The. Promised land's existence. Both. Killer and super. Identifiable. Style yet so super chill and laid back. When yhey explode the roof and doors off. Jamming that mother to the ground Undeniable excellence in the field

The greatest guitar player that hardly nobody knows. That's a crime. Love ya Jack!

Jack, IMO, is the most well rounded guitarist out there. He puts such a nice touch on everything he plays.

I saw Jack at the Dallas International Guitar Festival in April '11. He was there all weekend. Once when they had several "name brand" guitarists on the stage at the same time (All Star Jam), everyone was trying to out-do the last guy when it was their turn to play. When Jack took his turn he played about 12 or 14 notes and everyone on the stage just smiled and shook their heads as if to say "that was awesome" Greg Martin - the Kentucky Head Hunters just stopped playing and clapped his hands.

Jack can play any style. He is one great musician!!!

Since I heard him with the Allmans in 97 I've loved Jack totally. Here's one more reason. He is one of the underdiscovered treasures of the music world. An amazing combination of bluesy soul and jazzy sophistication with some of the best tone anywhere. As noted before, he could play through a toaster and sound fabulous.

Jack takes back seat to no one! Here's a good example of when you think you've heard the best and Bam! A true master of his craft

Jack Pearson is one of those rare beautiful souls that can push and pour it out and all over those strings.I believe he is Divinely inspired to deliver the Holy spirit to us through his playing.Thank you sir for your dedicated craft and gifts.

I am deeply concerned over the mental health of the people representing the five down votes here. Good grief people! Jack Pearson is just a beautiful, beautiful musician. Absolutely stunning.

There's lots of great guitar players. Jack Pearson is a great musician with great guitar chops..

Soul!. Not a wasted note. Simply the best.

National treasure ! Right smack dab in the heart of Murfreesboro TN . Such excellence is unparalleled not only does jack have the best tone with the double hotrail pick ups, can exhibit world class blues that is on the top shelf. But nobody else can savor the refrain , taste what the music asks . Totally virtuoso type musical talent but clearly schooled in classical /jazz theorem , he could blaze the frets from end to end with unrelenting fury , yet he has invested his most serious practice into smoothness of execution and of transitioning efficiently and obviously this kind of practice has paid off magnifold ,in not only technical prowess but the combination of serious discipline and being relaxed and at peace has in my humble opinion granted vision /perspective (musically speaking) that I otherwise would not expect from sheer discipline alone

SERIOUSLY THIS G AND L destroys his squires....BLOWN AWAY HE DOESNT USE EM ANYMORE

Soothed my soul - appreciated.........!

Just that first minute alone is ridiculous. A perfect blend of classic, sweet sounding blues mixed with enough jazzy / technical licks to let you know this guy is the real deal. Interesting phrasing as well. A true guitar players guitar player.

When i lived in Nashville we saw jack every time he played at 3rd and Lindsley. Phenomenal player. Also, as far as the VVT amp goes, i agree. it sounds amazing. Although half of that tone is in his dna. All fingers baby.

How did I miss out on this guy until today? Awesome talent!!!

It's hard to be inspired and be taken back to when I was a kid and purely loved guitar. The last time I was truly taken over by pure guitar was SRV.His music does the same thing for me.I love his playing.

Best touch on the strings and heart felt playing I think I have ever scene.

A Jack of all trades and a master of all.

What a gift to be able to say I had the distinct pleasure of recording a CD with this monster of guitarists. Gawd!

I live in Murfreesboro, TN and have seen Jack play for about 25 years now and I can tell you that he's a never ending bag of licks. The guy is truly gifted. I'm sure he put in the time, but he's just super talented and inspired. Yes he has good gear, but he could play any old axe and make it ooze just like he does here!

Jack, you have so much Soul in your playing, I can't get Enough of it, Cousin Figel

The most versatile player maybe in the history of music . Jack feels the blues like Elmore James , his touch is as sweet as Duane Allman.

I can't believe I haven't heard this guys sooner..I bow down.

jack... the giant killer ... jeez man!

That was some of the best blues playing!! thanks for uploading this great guitarist.

Amazing!🎸

Master of tone and feel!

Wow...goosebumps from head to toes.

Jesus that's some great pickin

I love the lyrics I don't know if its a original song or a blues number from way back.

The dude is a monster

one hell of a vocabulary... he sho knows where to go.

love jacks playing thats a g and l tribute asat hes playing there,he also plays asquier bullet live a lot this guy makes any guitar sound good from a 100 dollar bullet to a 1000 dollar g and l special

All the love in the world. Saw you on the Gregg allman special here this week. You are .the most fortunate man alive. I ve been trying to get to an Allman Brothers concert since the early 70s. Even when I was in the service Enjoy Mboro, I always did.

Wow, such a guitar great!!!! The rest of the band is cooking mighty fine too!!!!!!!

Jack "can't hit a bad note" Mfn Pearson People!

He is going to be back there on the 27th of October. I just moved to Nashville and cant wait to see him play. I have been wanting to for years.

Oh so very good!

Just discovered Jack a week ago and each new tune I hear is like finding new treasure. How could this gift stay hidden? Geez Mr. Pearson sir. Put some dates on the calendar and I'll call my travel agent. Can't wait to see/hear a live show.

I just heard of this guy. And..its..I'm happy.

@RichardScotti Quick, call your travel agent. Jack will be playing Nashville, TN. on January 28th at Third and Lindsley Bar and Grill. Show time is 9:30PM and cover is $10. This will be a jazz performance with Hammond and drums. Jack will play originals and standards from the American Jazz Songbook. You ain't seen or heard it swing like this before, unless you're older than 75 and lived in New York in the 50s and 60s.

@jf99151 Well, the VVT amp sounds great. But he's got an old Yamaha 50 watt amp that sounds great. Last night he played through a stock DeLuxe and later a Twin and they sounded great. He could plug into a toaster oven and it would sound great. Sometimes the gear doesn't matter, it's the player.

BadAss!!

Your remind me of Duane in this take of your soulfulness. Thanks

Yes, I'm a believer that no man is created equal!

👍 x 1000

A National tresure"

The way it is....

Jack has been touched by the hand of God.

@RichardScotti Glad you could make it, Richard. Now you know that it is not the gear, or the amp, or the guitar. It's the person using those tools. You saw him play a $91 guitar through a Blues Junior amp with only a tuner, a tube screamer for slide compression and a flanger (which he never used on the show). You are now a member of the club, congratulations.

Incredible tasty phrasing. . .

@jacksfan08 Tone is 95 % in the fingers! You are exactly right!

I am now influenced.

the mustache man strikes again

@jacksfan08 Looking around youtube, Jack isn't the only one using old Silvertone guitars. I saw Derek Trucks playing slide on one. I had forgotten they were really nice guitars, they just weren't taken seriously at the time since they were Sears guitars. They have some great tone after almost 50 years!

reminds me of Mark May!!!

@rockinredneck57 Jack does have a Sivertone that he uses for some slide work, and yeah, it sounds at least like a million bucks, maybe two. Quote from Jack about his Silvertone "They don't make masonite like this anymore!"

might be the best...........

@goldensleeves G&L website says Legacy Special. It's sweet, that much is clear! Of course, in Jack's hands, a Sears Silvertone would sound like a million bucks!

imagine he DOES ALL THAT ON A G AND L!!!!!!

4:20 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh too much, too much for me I can't handle that

Tell em Jimi sent ya......

Incredible. Unbelievable. Great soul. What model G&L is he playing there?

Wow that guitar must be made out of pure wood

I'd love to know what kind of rig he's using. He's got a great touch!

he made a face to get to the note (carlos santana)

quite nice. anyone know if he has been compared to BB King with those single-string runs?

now I know why they talk about you. this clip tells the story. yeah

Jesus 😅

Does anyone know the name of this tune and if it's a Jack Pearson song? If not, anyone know who it's by? Thanks in advance for the help!

Did this man ever jam with the late Danny Gatton?

Just exactly who in the hell gives this a thumbs down?

Silvertones ? Don't forget that 3,000 dollar hand built tube amp he's playing it through.

Anyone know what scale he's playing at about the 4:20 mark?

@toddallenhooper Todd, I have promised to stop watching Jack when he runs out of licks and starts repeating himself in predictable ways common to other players. 30 plus years later, I'm still watching and I estimate that I have a minimum of 30 plus more years to go.

Anyone know what amp he was playing back then?

Cant you hear me weep and moan

What song is this??

it's funny.. eric Clapton gets praise as being the best. then where does johnny land?? is pearson alien? he don't count I guess.

are you guys thick? it's an asat deluxe. legacy's are strat shaped. it's not that hard.
