more proof that Jack Pearson is the most underrated guitarist ever.
Big time
By who? Who underrares him?
@@Mr.B.B.Wolfman everyone who listens to the radio
wasnt that Danny Gatton?
One of the best I've Ever heard anywhere!
I love the nice short-scale six-string piccolo bass accompaniment to that dude’s groove…
Billy Strings is awesome but Jack Pearson is from another planet. Nice rendition of this ABB classic.
They got a little out of sync coming out of the organ solo.
Otherwise this might be the nicest rendition of this Dickey Betts composition besides the "Live at the Fillmore East" performance.
Keep in mind - Billy Strings originates from Bluegrass music - Not This Kind of Music. Let’s put Jack Pearson on the stage with Ricky Skaggs and other Bluegrass players and see how he fits in.. Chet Atkins was also “One of a Kind.” Jack has HIS own style..
@@glennchristie2316 Jack can play all that as well. Trust me.
@@cornfilledscreamer614 I hope so.. We need talented guitarists to replace the ones we are losing because of their age..
Jack has no problem ‘fitting in’ with whoever he’s playing with. Guarantee Billy could learn a thing or two from Jack.
I loved the way Billy kept looking over at Jack in admiration during Jack's solo
Jack's solo is easily the most unique and quite possibly the best Liz Reed solo I've ever heard. Astounding. Billy's reaction says it all.
Yeah! And listen to the rythym while Billy is playing...guy is just off the charts
Agreed snd I’ve been playing Elizabeth Reed in a band for years. I know all the subtleties and Jack is just in a whole New World from my skill level and everybody I know.
Right on!
They both own this song, in this performance. Masters
He learned from The Best Gregg and Dickey. He pushed Jack to be better. That happens sometimes.
Man I missed the Beauty of the jam band. There is magic in songs that aren’t
3.50 or 4 minutes. This is where art is made
Jamming separates the men from the boys
A Charmin TP ad in the middle of Billy’s solo was upsetting yet appropriate
😂
I'm 62, and the never heard anyone play any genre of music and do it effortlessly like Jack Pearson. Billy is a very close 2nd. And I grew up listening to Glen Cambell rip it up in the 60's and 70's and more.
Here's the best way to describe what you just said Jack Pearson is a Jedi master of guitar the Yoda or obi wan Kenobi and Billy will be someday too be a Jedi master
Glen Campbell was great but he was no Roy Clark, Magdalena?
@@highjenks3dyes Glenn Campbell was in fact in the same league as Roy Clark
So many artists attract attention with their virtuosity. Pearson has a calmness that makes me just want to listen.
Having been an Allman Brothers fan since 1970, I would not have thought it possible, but this is the best cover of any ABB song I've ever heard! A huge tribute to "The Brothers"!
Agreed, remember, Jack is a brother
1) love the fact that a young phenom like Billy Stings is into the ABB. 2) Jack is THE man
Billy capture abb vibe in this performance for sure!
Planet Pearson...light years away from us earthlings! Thank-you, Jack.
I Love You Jack.
Jack Pearson takes an off the rack Squier and a run of the mill overdrive pedal and makes every sound possible under the sun. There is no other guitarist that can equal him when he's in the zone, which is often.
Been listening to Jack since the early 90’s. Jack has quiet a $$$$$ collection of guitars & those off the rack guitars aren’t exactly off the rack - they have the electronics updated pots caps wire etc, he also has a setup & fretwork etc… He’s not walking into some shop & grabbing a $150 Squire & hitting the stage.
...have never heard him NOT in the zone
@@LA-zc9rg As his long time friend and his cartage guy, I can say with authority that he does have some very nice guitars. But, the Squiers are off the rack. Upgraded pots? He did replace a pot on the one he used on the Gregg Allman tribute, but only because it was sticky and he does a lot of volume swells, so he took one that he had laying around his house and put it in. That's why the knob is white. There's also a piece of masking tape under one of the strings because he felt that it was picking up hotter than the others. Other than making it playable to his liking, something every player does, there aren't any "tricks". Now, he did go through a lot of them at Guitar Center, but when he found one that he liked, it went to work, not a luthier or custom shop. He is that rare bird and I'm pretty dang blessed to have known him for the last 50 years.
Brought tears to my eyes it was so beautiful!
Hearing a great version of Liz reed makes me realize how immortal and one of a kind the ABB was!!
Especially the Fillmore album!
Once in a lifetime lineup
Beautiful. They did this masterpiece of a song justice
If your a guitar player, and this doesn't inspire you, your soul is dead. Watching Billy play with one of his heroes is just epic. 14:05 if that doesn't make you smile. I'm absolutely gobbling this up. I didn't know my phone could entertain me so.
Ive heard that the only that matches Pearson's playing is how humble he is. The man is a treasure.
Love Jack's Faux Wah effect. Who else does that? Amazing. Such a cool guy
It keeps on amazing me how almost 50 years after Duane Allman's passing his legacy is still so much alive. He keeps on inspiring people.
@Mike Burns: probably the same look on Dickey's face when he told Gregg to hire Jack or he would take lessons from him!
Maybe Dickey Betts' best tune. Life is good!
Pete, Let's not forget this is a Dickey Betts composition & he has inspired as many young & old players as much as the great Duane Allman. The music was timeless then & it remains that way & always will as long as there's good ears to hear it & good player to recreate it.
@Paul Levine: I only wish folks who tackle this beautifully composed tune would do Dickey Betts the honor of playing it rhythmically accurately in all its breaks as Pearson and Strings do. And that means you Derek Trucks and Marcus King.
@@yvonnelaurenty6427 A gorgeous piece of music. As a guitar player Duane had the hand of God on his shoulder, but as a writer Dickey outperformed him completely.
That's why Jack is the best the Allmans ever had. As good as the kid is, he knows he's just had his head handed to him.
.....and Billy enjoyed it too!! Jack, Duane, Dickie, Jimi, Billy, Gary Moore, SRV, 3 Kings, Beck, Eddie, Page......nectar from the gods
@@19tractor52 Cont... Garcia, Santana, Derek Trucks, Haynes, Houser, Trey, Herring, Duane Betts, Tom Hamilton...
Jack Pearson is in a league of his own...just a brilliant musician
The most fun thing (and there were many) was watching the various expressions Billy made during Jack's solo. He was feeling that more than any of us. Have loved Jack for a long time and Billy only recently. What a great connection and the band did a very good job on this.
Yeah, Billy's in it for the music -- strikes me as about as egoless as a guy of his age and accomplishment can be. He doesn't care who kills it-- and Jack does kill it. And is that Royal on base? or just look like him. Can't decide.
So true!
Find someone who looks at you like Billy Strings looks at Jack Pearson during his solo.
Holy S###! I think brother Duane would have put his guitar down on that song to watch Pearson!
The look on Billy’s face from 8:20 on is worth the price of admission!!🤣
Billy is a great player but he got schooled by Master Jack Pearson jamming on this tune. Billy was digging, watching and listening to everything Jack was laying down. Fun to see a young player so into watching and playing with a master.
Give Billy a break; this is a pretty impressive electric guitar jam for a guy whose primary axe is an acoustic dreadnought and whose primary focus is bluegrass. Expecting Billy to keep pace in this style would be like expecting Jack to be Bryan Sutton’s equivalent in a bluegrass setting. Ridiculous.
@@michaellewis9578 I wasn't busting his chops at all. I praised him for being humble and just digging Jack's guitar wizardry. I'm sure Billy would be the first to agree. I though he played very well on electric and very few can hang with Jack. I mentioned to Shawn Tubbs he should do a jam with Jack, his reply was " I have nightmare's about Jack Pearson" and Shawn is one of the best electric guitarists out there. Bill should do an acoustic thing with Jack, although he is just as amazing on acoustic too.
no, man, Billy DID ''KEEP UP'' nobody said differently...?@@michaellewis9578
@@michaellewis9578 Jack has played with Bryan and all of the other bluegrass greats from Nashville. Before his health declined, he was pretty regular at Del McCoury's house jams. Also played mandolin for about a year with Mike Snder on the Opry. Stuart Duncan said the the day Jack started playing mandolin is known on Music Row as "Black Tuesday".
Here’s how you know you’re in the presence of otherworldly talent…..Jack makes brilliance look effortless.
The Brothers would approve. 2 living and 4 deceased. RIP.
I just discovered Jack Pierson today, and Billy Strings too; that's icing on the cake!
Jack Pearson solo, f-in ridiculous! Never heard of this guy until recently--gotta love RUclips. Now if they wouldn't be so disrespectful to throw an ad in the middle of a song . . . .
Brave my friend, use brave as a search engine, NO ADS.
Strings is on fire for his solo. Very inspiring to say the least 🐱
Jam with Jack and see how inspired you get, but it soon became a guitar clinic by the look on Billy’s face you know it
These 2 are the best----hope Mr.Pearson is coming along with health..love the guy! This is absolutely the best cover ever done of Eliz Reed.
Oh my GOD it’s like Jack is making that stratocaster CRY. Even I can feel the pain. 😬
I've had the pleasure of meeting Jack many times & he's a gentleman & one of the most gifted guitarist in the world.
An understated presence that is unmistakable. Quickly becoming a favorite. Makes Trucks better. Makes Stings better.
Jack Pearson is bringing it!!! :)
Billy Strings is an awesome acoustic guitar player, but Jack Pearson is the best all around guitarist in America today!
Billy’s solo reminds me more of a Dickey solo from the Fillmore days... so here’s props to Billy
Dickey didn’t have the flash of Duane. However he covered a lot for his more illustrious band mate. Duane was free to improvise knowing that Dickey had his back and anchored the song. I never heard of two lead guitar virtuosos in the same band without regular cutting contests that detracted from the music. What they could have accomplished. A crying shame, even after over half a century gone by.
Gotta be one of the best versions ive seen
Thanks for the post! Billy Strings is an amazing talent and Jack Pearson is one of the most gifted guitar player/ musicians have ever encountered! His improvising the second to none, and his command of the electric guitar tone is so tasty! What he gets from a simple setup...?🤯
Really it’s just his musical spirit.
When u can make Mr. Strings smile you are killing it...
Whenever I hear this song played by great artists like these... it reminds me of the man who created the song, and just how good he was during his heydays.
At the time, nobody played with ferocity of Mr. Richard Betts.
I always thought the Allman’s were who they were, because of Bett’s contributions.
Yes, a few greats followed in his footsteps, but they followed not replaced.
I think this is one of rock’s greatest songs.
Wonderfully stated Norris. IMOER is a masterpiece by the maestro. High Falls also.
He and Duane together were just pure gold. Phenominal
Yes. Let's not forget who wrote this marvel: DB forever.
You all know where the name is from!
2 guys that love Dickey even though he made Jack go deaf.
Got absolutely fried during this show and this song blew my mind. Nothing beats a jam like this when you’re on Cloud 9.
#9 #9 #9 #9
Kid was blazing but Jack couldn't let him get away with it ha ha...jk it's a maturity in Jack's playing that just makes it so melodic
@David Taber no doubt..guy is fierce
@David Taber Jason Isbell said "We're all just watching Jack Pearsons' taillights."
My FAVORITE new musician (Billy Strings) covering my FAVORITE song ( period.) Amazing!!!
I met Jack at a music festival right after he came off stage and they wouldn't let him enter the artist's lounge. Emptied his pockets, said all I have is this pass. I said to the dude at the entrance that this is Jack Pearson! He just came off stage! Let him in! I also offered that he could tag along with us to the truck. They let him in the tent. Humble and funny, wildly talented.
Jack Pearson’s phrasing blows me away and billy amazing player
The bassist is quite good. Especially, in the midst of these awesome fellas. Great video.
I'm almost positive the bassist is Royal Massat, currently in the Billy Sting's band. He on an electric playing with a pick, which I have never seen before, but he grooves like Royal.
@@ScottMoeGator I'm sure you're right...Thought for second it might've been Berry Oakley Jr....
those swells at the beginning just fantastic
Jack Pearson, why is this the first time I am know you! Dammit man, That was incredible!!!! School was in session Y'all!
This was so good it was scary! How the heck do you get this good? Just wow, jaw dropping performance by everyone in the band.
I hear a lot of Roy Buchanan in Jack Pearson. Roy literally shredded every note he played. Thankfully we have another player to take Roy’s place. Unreal..
Proof you don’t need expensive gear to sound like a legend. Pearson playing a squire strat
This needed much more rehearsal.
Props to the Rhythm Section.
Incredible song and couldn't get anyone better than Jack to play it (well maybe Dicky in his prime)! This is the Fillmore East version which I love that they copied some of the original live solo's. And not a Les Paul in sight!
久々インストで感動🎉。ありがとうございます🎉
If your a guitar player, this is just such a fun song to jam on just as ABB would do at the Beacon, Fillmore E & W and in between for hours. Jack is as smooth as buttermilk.
Jack Pearson pulling 🎷 sounds out of stock squire... crazy 🤣
Just got chills wicked sweet 🪕🎵🎻🎸🎶🎤🍀💚👁️💚
Billy is good but jack is so smooth, light touch and innovative... any style... incredible! Love to have a third of that....😎🎸
That 1971 live fire!!! The whole band was in on it. Burned it Up.
Jack doing them Roy Buchanan knuckle slides.
How do you give this more than one thumbs up??? Outstanding!
Pro musicians who truly know their craft!
This is the best new version, of a song I never liked (before) what great team work , and originality !!
Jack played with the Allman Brothers, and more than fit in with a long tradition, saying something in the playing, and doing it all night long.
Billy is no slouch on the electric guitar as it turns out! Badass! Guess it makes sense that such a monster on acoustic guitar would be able to hold his own on electric too.
My all time fave ABB song.
Jack on fire!
Billy plays anything so well
Great cover of one of my favorite ABB songs. Love that Hammond B3 along with truely awesome guitar.
Jack's playing is amazing. WOW!
Jack is simply untouchable. Billy is a phenom in his own right but this quickly ended up like he was there to take a guitar lesson. Whether he wanted one or not.
He wanted one
@@DoubledayOfficialthat’s exactly right! Real.
Best guitarist alive, hands down
Great band. PSB: Pearson- Strings Band 😮
Lady's and Gents I present the Masters!!! Lake Wateree South Carolina was here
I’ll watch anything that has Jack Pearson in the title
huge billy strings and allman brothers fan, never heard this!
Man oh man great 👍!
Just for those who may not know, Jack did all that on a Squire strat, yup!
yeah imagine how it could have sounded....................
@@BoxerEngineSounds haha, you need to go see Jack in Nashville on those
Not many people can stand and play with Jack Pearson on an ABB song…. Billy proved worthy here…
But I’m glad Billy switched to Gibsons for his electric work these days…
holy fucking shit YES.
this is the music we have to keep alive!
Well,this song is over 50 years old and it’s being played fresh as though it was just being played to the public for the first time… that’s why it will go down in history as one of Rock music’s greatest instrumental songs… if not the best….
keepin it alive...way to go boys
There are great players like Billy who will someday reach that jedi master level of Jack Pearson, seriously Jack is the Jedi master of six strings.
Jack taps into Roy Buchanan here a lot! Just Awesome
@Crispr talk: Billy Strings plays electric guitar w/ Billy (Kreutzman) along with the amazing Tom Hamilton from JRAD.
Many comment on hearing Billy on electric that they hear a lot of Dickey Betts in him on the Dead songs. And btw, I do believe that's Royal Massat who plays upright acoustic bass in Billy Strings mostly bluegrass band. No wonder he can gracefully follow Billy into all the genre-bending stuff he does.
Billy strings is God sent to this world to enjoy as much as possible 🤟💚
Amen
Love Jack!
William you are so talented and you and the bees nees
Jack is an American great...Billy Strings knows he's no equal Pearson....he is a fan on stage. Feeling lucky to be there
Talent
Jack needs to upgrade that cheap Squier strat!! (haha, just kidding - he can play a cigar box if he wants)😀
Jack learned from one of the greats, the bloke who wrote the song!
Jack is a Master.
Reading all these posts about Squiers reminds of 1984. Jamming with a neighbor who had a black Squier. I was thinking it was just my own limited experience; the sounds I could get out of that through a small tube amp. Have thought of that repeatedly over the years and no, it wasn't my imagination. That guitar had something really special about it.
the song comes from a little statuary of young slave girl imbedded in the banks above the Ocmulgee and below rose hill cemetery in macon..
Love that they quoted, nailed the Fillmore East opening phrases. Monstrous playing; don't want to stop heaping accolades on what a blessing this performance is...
Unfair; I'm pretty good and could never approximate this level of cohesion.
KILLER organ solo. Just sayin'. 🙏
That's a big WOOOHOO!
