Very nice.  Vince is a true professional, great player and person. Thanks for posting this remarkable "event"...

[mickhayesband]

Dang I'm a pretty tough cookie emotionally but I just shed a tear when he went into Jessica on that solo ride. Bless this man and his heart!

[mavgrbr]

At 6:47 I literally got Chills all over! Awesome. I have lived in Macon My Whole life and missed this show ...I shoulda went.

[maak657]

This truly was a treat for me.Wow ! The perfect person to have let play duanes guitar...It made me cry with the tone.

[johnbeloe]

Bloody JAWDROPPING tone and superb playing too! Wow!

[ludblight]

Wow!! What tone!! It sounds like Duane and brought a tear to my eye!

[MOSKII58]

great tone so pure... of course its in the hands of a master

[rockytop1998]

That was just awsome. Pure Vince Gill but what a tribute. Anth toe tone WOW. You still know it's Vince but you can hear him jamming along to the brothers like he was a kid in his room at home......I know that feeling of jamming with the brothers too but I'm no Vince Gill....awesome just awsome.

[LabelBob]

what a great player Vince is, he feels it.



[kutsbothways]

Beautiful, Thanks Vince. Wish I had been there.

[Litmus63]

Hey ichisatori. Do I know you? I am at The Big House sometimes.

[TheRealRayJ]

Damn, Vince quotes Duane and Dickey with such taste and grace. 

[awburris]

What a tasteful tribute!

Thank You for posting this,,,Outstanding!

I saw a little article about this event in the latest issue of Vintage Guitar magazine and was hoping something was available here. I loved everything about this vid.

[jf99151]

[villapi]

Beautiful ! Thanks for posting !

[BobEgg1996]

What a joy to hear Duane's guitar singing again. Wish the other songs he played were here on YouTube too.

[GuitarReb]

What an incredible sounding guitar, and who better than Vince to coax out the melodies of that sweet Gibson hardtop. Also, I can see why Little Walter (Tube Amps) has gotten such a stellar rep. The amp sounds fantastic.

[ichisatori]

have you got the other songs Vince played on the Duane LP? PLEASE post, thanks! :-)

[theBigHouseMuseum]

@ichisatori - sorry, I only filmed the one song. I wanted to enjoy myself fully for the others....

[itsokwidme]

Somethings are just meant to be! Vince musta been giddy. Thanks Vince and Big House for allowing this to happen. I'm sure you know what it means to us "listeners".

[RickSPI2009]

OMG what beautiful playing and singing. Vince Gill is amazing, and the guitar and amps make it very special.

[blueswalter]

I have never been prouder to hear my friend Vince Gill play Duane's Gold Top through the amps that I built for him. Phil "Little Walter" Bradbury

Fantastic tone.

[Voycefm]

Vince has such a distinctive style and sound, but I swear that sounded like Duane playing a Vince Gill song.

[tatsandteles]

Wow.

[frankfear]

"It was a spiritual experience for me" To say the least!

[TheBrianBlues]

Incredible Yea I got the chills too, cannot believe the guitar has a soul,

Thanks Vince!

[bigdaveonbass]

Does anyone know what song Vince played after Adriana?

[erics1960]

@bigdaveonbass At about 6:44 It's Blues Sky to 7:04 thru 7:20 is Jessica two of my favorite Allman Bros tunes.

[theBigHouseMuseum]

@bigdaveonbass : "Go Rest High" and then "Slippin'"

[Bmcride]

Chills man,chills

[JoyceAFisher]

Nice!



[bigdaveonbass]

Nice Blue Sky and Jessica teases in there. Vince is as good as they come on guitar.

[ichisatori]

@bigdaveonbass teases = quotes, quoting.

[Frankeepy72]

The story behind the song: Vince wrote this for a young girl, Adriana; who was killed in a senseless gang initiation by two young murderers who didn't know her at all. She was walking out of a grocery store with her mother in Nashville.

[2222ww1]
