Jerry Reed <span title="RIP............................?">RIP.........................</span>

Question

I loved him in the Smokey and the Bandit movies. Goodbye (Snowman).

Answer 1

&quot;Amos Moses&quot; had one of the coolest guitar riffs, an&#039; it was repeated over an&#039; over!

He was a helluva guitar player.

R.I.P.

Answer 2

Jerry Reed&#039;s songs will be classics forever. Gotta make a correction though. It was Jimmy Dean, not Jerry Reed who originally recorded &quot;A thing Called love&quot;

Answer 3

RIP, JR.

Singer, actor, best guitar picker ever, all around good old boy.

Jerry Reed&#039;s song &quot;Today is Mine&quot; used to be the theme to Bill Dance Outdoors.

&quot;I thought how small and unimportant all my troubles seemed to be, and how lucky another day belongs to me.&quot;

ON EDIT:  Thanks Rose, I had forgotten about him being the original artist of that song.  It seems that every time Johnny Cash covers one, he&#039;s who you think of when you think of the song.

Answer 4

He could be surprisingly tender too:  A Thing Called Love

Answer 5

Jerry was a master showman.

The Bird,Sugarfoot Rag,She Got the goldmind,When Your Hot your Hot&quot; are just a few of his best.

My favorite movie was &quot;W.W. and The Dixie Dance Kings&quot;

  Gone but not forgotten.

Answer 8
