- Probably the best version ever of this magnificent instrumental.
It was printed on a Guitar Player Magazine's Sound Sheet.
Simply wonderful. Jerry Donahue expresses his artistry up to the top ov the Electric Guitar's Universe. Enjoy !

The greatest string bender guitarist ever, the fabulous Jerry Donahue 🎸
There was a full transcription in that issue describing the bends and everything. I learned a ton from it, but, being mortal, I couldn't even come close. Amazing.
That is correct, I still have that Soundpage and it came with some examples and commentary from Jerry himself.
Holy moley. That is superhuman. I never knew anyone could do that.
Mesmerising. One of the best pickers on the planet.
Lord have mercy!!! Goose bumps!!
Thanks! I agree, this is the best version. And we should say that the legendary Jerry Reed wrote the original (but everybody knows that by now).
Some of the best geetar you'll ever hear
Nice one ! I also still have that soundpage from Guitar Player
CRAZY...Make me not want play no more after hearing this...lol...
I know how you feel lol.
Awesome !!!
I still can't believe I saw Jerry play for a quid at the Bowling Green in Stockport. Total chance, he knew the owner or something. Anyway, I'd been an advocate of Guitar Player magazine for ages. The little floppy vinyl thing that was stapled to the front of the cover brought me to The Beak and the Claw. I had worked so hard with the tablature and weeks and months later here I was in a pub with Jerry. He was buying a pint at the bar and I said ..."big fan". Such a moronic thing to say. I have never forgiven myself.
Jerry your the best string bender
I saw him play this on Equinox on tv in 87. Still have it on video. Awesome.
I saw that too! -Was so blown away, I felt inspired to go and buy a Telecaster!- I regret not doing that....Shame he’s kinda forgotten.
One of the most innovative and greatest pickers the world's ever seen
Hot Damn!!!
I bought the Return of the Hellecasters when it came out and this tune was on there, totally agree that this is some of the finest playing by Jerry Donahue, he is a phenomenal player! Thanks for posting this version/ cut of this iconic jerry reed tune, simply jaw-dropping string bending here!
I picked up the chart book from this cd in a guitar shop years ago. The tab for this track was a black page. It literally looked like a redacted CIA document.
That whole cd is epic!
Awe inspiring!
Absolutely beautiful.... 😃
What a legend! King Arthur's Dream is still my favourite though!
🎸🎸🎸
I even shaken his hand in 1993 but it did not help , I still remained a barely average .guitarist.
Ha ha!
Buy more gear... That's my attempted substitute for natural talent!
Is there any way I could get my hands on that sound sheet? I absolutely love this song!
This isn't exactly the same, but it's close:
