My wife bought me a Jr Brown CD about 20 years or so ago. I was a deputy sheriff and she got it for me because of the song “Highway Patrol” and been a fan since. Neither of us had ever heard the song and she really got it as a gag gift but I’m glad she got that for me. Truly a talented man. He and his wife make a great team. You can tell by the way she looks and smiles at him she truly loves him and is still impressed by his playing.
How can anyone this talented be essentially unknown when no talent hacks like Justin Bieber and a thousand God-Awful rappers are lauded around the world? Junior Brown is the best guitarist around. Tanya really strums the hell out of that guitar as well, doesn't she!
Right on. they are probably the most talented duo in music,. but radio stations target the tween, teen , and 20s year old audience. They are going to promote things like Justin Beaver and Rascal flats, with their sound alikes,. plus the vulgar crappers. This guy and wife will never be heard on the radio because of their age and they are talented and don't cuss. UA-cam is about the only source for something like this.
ANSWER: Money. Look at who'd spending money on music. Most of those who liked this music are dead or certainly deaf by now. Never look past the money. Unfortunately that's what drives the world for the most part.
Teenager controlled the market in the 60´ies and layed the economic basis for eg Beatles but music like country, blues, soul, classic rock and roll and jazz will always be requested. I took a trip to downtown a while ago and it was crowded with old people. I thougt it was some kind of pensioners meeting. No, Metallica was in town.
Two of the best and most talented musicians in country music: Junior Brown and Charlie McCoy. I've been a fan of Charlie since the 70's, Junior since the early 90's.
A friend took me to see Junior and Tanya at Stubb's in Austin. Junior is brilliant, with his own style, and goodness knows, his show is so Great. It was Tanya (his beautiful wife) that was like a human metronome!! She was Amazing! Together, I was mesmerized for almost two hours!! If you get the chance, see these two! So Great!!!
I wished I was there! I am a MN transplant to WA now. But have been a JB fan all my life. And have gone to MN State Fair concerts when I lived there! Best State Fair in the country and 2nd oldest too!
Jr. Is Fucking killer on both steel and slide. I guess he's just an all around kind of dude. Im lovin it!!! This guy should be on every country station every day!!!
I'm 64 and just recently discovered this amazing guitarist he plays like he has 10 fingers on each hand! Incredible style speed gorgeous wife one of the best pickers period amazing tone chops can play any genre I'm convinced this guy should be in the hall of fame! Why isn't he a star? He certainly deserves it who can outplay junior today? Answer nobody even close not Jeff beck jimmy page or Jimi Hendrix it's quite obvious this guy is a true virtuouso I've got to see junior live this year 2018 what a talent nobody. Comes close period
IMO John Mayer is pretty good too. I've seen videos of him playing and he's quite impressive. He also plays a lot of blues and has played with popular blues musicians in the past as well like Buddy Guy and BB King. They all have respect for John Mayer.
i agree sonny, of the three that are simply great i couldn't pick my favorite, i don't think there is a difference in well its played, just a little different style. sure glad to see so many junior fans
Back in 1996 went to see him play ,later on met up with some friends,one who was a studio musician in Nashville who had played for big name groups.Told him i had just seen Junior and his reply was "Probably one of the greatest guitar player's ever"
I am 57 years old and had never heard of this guy until last week, I can't believe how talented you are. Unreal talent- you should be a superstar. I hope you can go mainstream and make some real money, cuz you deserve it more than anyone I've seen in 20 years.
Michael Allen - been listening to ole Junior for 15 years or so. Old high school buddy Steve Layne used to play bass in his band. Seen him a few times here in ATL. he still puts on a heck of a show. JB is awesome!
I sure do love junior brown. I can listen to him forever on a loop in my sleep. Absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to see him in Vegas someday. Even his wife way he's him play , And smiles at how fantastic he is. Wow.
A country purist. Original and authentic.Certainly not one of the new age metrosexual cookie cutter slackers that inhabit modern country. Long Live Junior Brown. His talent makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Junior Brown is a Modern Day , Faron Young. Greatness is Uncommon.!!
How can 36 people give this a thumbs down I mean wtf? They must be tone deaf or like Justin Bieber this is brilliant playing by junior one of the best there is multitalented pure musician and pretty much untouchable in almost any genre the great junior brown who gave srv lessons once upon a time!
WTF:)...Just about the time I thought I'd seen or heard of every guitar legend....BOOM along comes this Amazing Man! Thanks UA-cam for introducing me to this relatively unknown Legend! What a treat:)
As WWE Superstar Kofi Kingston from The New Day quoted, “Junior Brown & his wife Tanya Rae Brown are a perfect guitar couple in music history throughout positivity after the epic performance baby!!!!!!!"
The amazing JB, and his even more amazing wife Tonya. She seems to love the jam, always. Smiling, and her rhythm guitar is perfect. Wonder what her previous bands were ?
some serious guitar work here. what a great husband and wife duo. Tanya is so classy as always. The guy seated in the back with his arms folded really needs to be somewhere else. Not a happy camper there. Cheers.
My perfect job would have been to be his protege. Even if I was paid in bologna sandwiches and diet sodas. Would have enjoyed every waking hour learning from him. God love you Mr Brown.
A guitar player's dream. Have a wife that smiles at you [3 minute marker to the end] when you jam down instead of hollering out "Turn that D_ _ _ _ Thing Down" .
+michael buxton Why do people keep saying that about guitarists that are not familiar to them? He is highly rated, respected and revered by those who matter...
Jørgen Ingmann and his guitar..."Apache" 1961. Then Malaguena. Then it sounds like The Ventures then Chuck Berry riffs... See Junior without his hat on Ethyl and Methyl.
Possibly the best guitarist in the history of country music. You can mention some others like Chet Atkins, but I don't think Junior Brown goes any lower than the Top 5 of all time in the country music genre,

I recall first seeing Junior on MTV back in the late 1980s, and asking the same question, friend.......
Teenager controlled the market in the 60´ies and layed the economic basis for eg Beatles but music like country, blues, soul, classic rock and roll and jazz will always be requested.

Music doesn't get any more fun than this! Mrs. Brown is always a gorgeous talented lady.
CLASS ACTS!!!
She has a wonderful smile when he nails it.
@@prtauvers National treasures.
Does Mrs. Brown have a lovely daughter?😅
Junior Brown just became my favorite country music to listen to and watch
Jr makes the best "guitar faces" of any guitarist...NO one trick pony talent here folks..
Robin Trower says hold my beer...
@@stevemccooleq Two greats

The second song is an old Fireballs track called 'Bulldog'. What an awesome bit of playing!!

Your age also. Just discovered him..not to late. Just good
He is a star. I saw him in 96 open for the Mavericks. He was all over country television back then with "Highway Patrol"
Listen to JJ Grey!!!!
Saw Jr at a car show in Marysville, Mi where he played for 200 people. He played for hour like he was in a stadium of a 100K.
The fretboard on his guitar looks like there's been a million or so songs played on it. Junior is awesome.
This guy is extraordinary! Love you Junior Brown!
If you look up the word, "Incredible," in most dictionaries, one of the definitions listed is: Junior Brown.
Very nice Apache rendition! And with all due respect to you Jr. You have a very pretty wife...
i agree sonny, of the three that are simply great i couldn't pick my favorite, i don't think there is a difference in well its played, just a little different style. sure glad to see so many junior fans
What a privilege to see this man perform.
Mrs. brown looks especially enchanting here!
Tanya has one helluva cute smile.
Truly love this because they are a couple - so good seen them twice
and after all these years his wife still Smiles in Marvel's at his skills
Mike Such I beat he plays her very well. Those hands are magic. Just saying.

She looks as good wearing the business suit as she does blue jeans.
That was fkn awesome. Thank goodness I lived through the generation of cool music, not the crap todays music generation bring. Thank you
this entire band is my new religion and I am very critical of modern country music.
What a legend!
He gets my vote for the best instrumentalist ever in C&W.
I sure do love junior brown.
I can listen to him forever on a loop in my sleep. Absolutely fantastic.
Can't wait to see him in Vegas someday.
Even his wife way he's him play ,
And smiles at how fantastic he is.
Wow.
I just “discovered” Junior Brown on an Opry show rerun, on RFD-TV. WOW and Great Gosh Amighty! There are no words. This is sublime.
A country purist. Original and authentic.Certainly not one of the new age metrosexual cookie cutter slackers that inhabit modern country. Long Live Junior Brown. His talent makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Junior Brown is a Modern Day , Faron Young. Greatness is Uncommon.!!
Agree. After the 80s It was rubbish mostly. Exceptions Alan Jackson and a few others. Dwight Yoakam, George Strait. Rhonda Vincent.
Fabulous talent.
Junior Brown is outstanding and Tanya is beautiful. Love this!
Man can play ,manages a good living on the road and has the good fortune of having his wife at his side and doing a very important part of his show...
Tanya watches Junior real close to make sure he is just right and then she smiles. She is his number one fan! Karl
You never see Mr Brown on Rolling Stone's 100 best guitarists. Always Hendrix etc.. This man is the boss.
Sure hope nobody minds if I watch this another 100 times!
I like the idea of having fun. I dig surf tunes and rock-a-billy. we should do this more often!
How can 36 people give this a thumbs down I mean wtf? They must be tone deaf or like Justin Bieber this is brilliant playing by junior one of the best there is multitalented pure musician and pretty much untouchable in almost any genre the great junior brown who gave srv lessons once upon a time!

"It's got a back beat...you can't loose it"...."it's gotta be rock 'n roll to me"!

Dude's from another planet.
dyam what a jam!!!
I don't think I would want to play a set AFTER he just finished his...I don't know of many who would !
Best picker I’ve ever heard.
love this
God bless him, should have been noticed more.
Do NOT MISS AN OPPORTUNITY to see Junior Brown and his talented wife LIVE in concert somewhere!!!
That woman playing the guitar is Gorgeous!
Обожаю его!!! Бесподобно!
Had the privilege of meeting him for a moment last summer. I wanted to say 'I'm Not WORTHY'
This is the real rock and roll!!!! 👹👹👹👹
would love to have a cup of coffee with these 2
Nice smooth 'behind the nut' bend at 0:20. It hurts my fingers just watching that :)
Don't hear goodness like this every day.
Wow! Freak out daddio!!!
Cool stuff
Nice music :-)
some serious guitar work here. what a great husband and wife duo. Tanya is so classy as always. The guy seated in the back with his arms folded really needs to be somewhere else. Not a happy camper there. Cheers.

I mean, I love it! Great!
good. very good!!!
Just casually re-tunes the thing mid-song. What a fucking legend.
The band holds up well to the insanity by Mr. Junior Brown
What the HELL is that supposed to mean?
for a brick layer by day he can jam at night sad such a bad ass gotta work hard labor to make ends meet love you JR
The man falls asleep playing, wakes up drinks coffee, starts again.
A guitar player's dream. Have a wife that smiles at you [3 minute marker to the end] when you jam down instead of hollering out "Turn that D_ _ _ _ Thing Down" .
The jimmy page of country o yeah
+Grog Hultman I was even thinking Vie or Satriani.
Plus another instrumental? Malaguena? Very famous piece of music, and yes, Junior is awesome.
Love tonya!
I like that ""huge"" drum kit!
Slingerland Radio King?
Jr. in a groove!
Wowwww
Sounds like a little bit of 'Ramrod' and a little bit of 'Stick Shift' for the 2nd instrumental
U kno she can🎸🎵🎶 strum all 🎤☀🌞day n 🌜night! Whata lucky🍀 man
junior freakin rips/he is amazing
he is so under rated!
+michael buxton Why do people keep saying that about guitarists that are not familiar to them? He is highly rated, respected and revered by those who matter...
Thas a husband and wife ass kicking team JFB
Good sound.. Were you riding the TILT-A-WHIRL when you shot this? It is a bit shaky!
Wow
Tanya Rae Brown is the greatest in her own way. She needs more time on the microphone. I'll bet you she can sing too. Karl
Play, magic fingers!
This guy came from the year 3050. This dude is living in 3050. Is the only explanation
Just came to see Tanya😘😘😘
Jørgen Ingmann and his guitar..."Apache" 1961. Then Malaguena. Then it sounds like The Ventures then Chuck Berry riffs... See Junior without his hat on Ethyl and Methyl.
next song after Malaguena is "let's go" by the ventures.
Let's Go was by the Routers...then maybe the Ventures covered it...
Possibly the best guitarist in the history of country music. You can mention some others like Chet Atkins, but I don't think Junior Brown goes any lower than the Top 5 of all time in the country music genre,
