Always admired Jerry's guitar picking. Great video.

Original was by Murry Kellum. One of my favorites to do...always brings back great

@JolleyRick Actually Henry and Larry Strzelecki was the first. Henry wrote it. Afterwards came Jerry Woodard with a sizeable hit' Henry played bass w Woodard. Murray Kerllum was much later.

Thanks

That is awesome. He had the most expressive face ever.  Good stuff Henry.

I sure do miss my golfing buddy...Jerry Reed...and my friend. I loved doing music with Jerry,and it was an honor to be called to do HIS recording sessions. I loved his music, becuase it was always good. What a great talent. I miss him a lot.....Henry Strzelecki PS I never knew he recorded this cut of my song, until I saw it here on U-Tube . What a pleasant surprise.

[joepappa1]

@MrBasspicker0 I knew him also. I worked with your brother and Jerry Woodard as drummer. Nice to hear from you!

Great song! Jerry Reed has always been one of my favorites. He was one of a kind.

Thanks J.G. for posting.

@johnsono17 Thanks Kelster!

If I remember right Strzelecki played bass on some of Jerry's albums. Jerry was a one of kind and is missed very much.

[joepappa1]

@44Snyder He did for awhile. Jerry was inducted into the Birmingham Record Hall Of Fame Sunday 22 of August, 2010. He would have been proud.
