Jerry Cole was beond a doubt the GREATEST Musician's ever!! I was proud to have called him one of my best friends. I was on stage with Jerry when Donnie Brooks presented him his induction into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.Rest in peace Jerry, there will never be another like you.

Yo no sabia que habia fallecido Jerry Cole hasta hoy, yo lo admiro mucho, siempre sera uno de mis favoritos en la musica surf . Excelentes albumes cuando tocaba con sus Spacemen y porsupuesto un gran guitarrista de sesion. Gracias Mr. Jerald Edward Kolbrak por tu gran aportacion a la musica y descansa en paz amigo.
I'm so saddened, and tears fill my eyes, to hear this. How fleeting our lives are... ... it seems just yesterday I listened to those superb, inspired solos... ...even bought a Fender Mustang to be like him. He was WAY ahead of his time. A great, superlative player. Thankyou Jerry Cole, for inspiration you gave me. I became a real good player, lots of jazz, and chops, you know... ... you made me better than I might have otherwise been. Thanks deeply, my departed friend, JS
I used to watch that show religiously for ONE reason only: the incredible solos of Jerry Cole! Some very advanced stuff for the day, playing on, as I recall, a little Fender Mustang. Didn't even know who the guy was. I remember one particularly stunning solo on Little Latin Lupe lou. (not sure of spelling here.) he was backing the Righteous Brothers. A great, innovative player who deserved more recognition. One of the emails above seems to imply Jerry is gone... ...I hope this is not true. JS
I played bass next to Jerry on dozens of gigs. Amazing guitarist, great personality and a very funny guy.. He will be missed greatly.

I remember old Jerry, he liked his dune buggy, his guns and his guitars. I grew up across the street from him in the 70s.
RIP.
