I can almost guarantee you that if you reached out to Jack Pearson he would do a sky meeting like you did with Ian. He is one of the most humble dudes you will ever meet.
Jack Pearson is the most underrated guitarist of all time. The fact that he does it all on Squiers makes him even cooler. And as always, the TTB is the best band on the planet.
@@johnshanesyandtheaccommoda1189 that's what I figured, and I've seen all of them, just baffles me that I don't remember him mentioning it. It would def be something I should remember. Thx
I was there that night. It was church man. Was a couple of days after Butch died. Jack told me that was one of the most special nights of music for him, his band opened and killed.
Cool that you used the video I recorded. Thanks for explaining some of that musical wondrousness I witnessed that evening. Wish I could have provided a better quality video but it was an iPhone 7 so you get what you get,. Glad people are getting to hear what some of us heard that night. Peace.
Jack is actually playing lot of Dickey and Duane's solos from Fillmore East, Liz Reed, You Don't Love Me, and Whipping Post, with King Curtis's Soul Serenade. Derek knows those solos just as well. Jack's embellishments are astounding, but no surprise if you were fortunate to see him with the ABB the year before Derek joined. He particularly shone on both versions of Dreams I saw him play, one of them 30 minutes. He and Dickey Betts went after each other all night long in a wonderful guitargument. Jack's tinnitus issues have kept him from the recognition he deserves.
Around 8 mins you see Derek look down on the ground(and Michael asks “a wah on it?”) but it’s actually this thing he does with his nails mimicking a wah sound. He does it on Marty’s guitar show and I’ve seen him show it on his IG. Pretty wild
I would love to find a video of Derek doing the old Col. Bruce low E string trick and see what Michael has to say about that one. I haven't been able to find a good one, just audio that if you don't know what he's doing is otherworldly.
Never has one solo made me wanna quit guitar and play guitar so much as this one. I’m 3 years in as a 16 year old, Jack and Derek make grin like no other players in the world
You are definitely listening to the right influences. Get your inspiration from these two, Duane, Dickey, and Warren like Marcus king did. Do that and I’ll be paying to come hear you one day
Met him at Tootsies in Nashville. He was watching a pedal steel player he liked pretty much all night. He literally stayed till close and last 1/2 hour was him up with the band basically talking with Eddie (pedal steel player) musically until close. There was like 10 ppl in the bar and it was best night musically for me.
Had the pleasure of attending MTSU in the late 90's when Jack's band was playing every Wednesday for $5 at the Boro. The best blues shows I've ever seen anywhere, ever. He is a bad man. Maybe the baddest. Certainly in my top 3 favorites of all-time.
This dude is so good. I put him in Duane territory.he's mostly just paying attention to the drummer and doing what he wants to do. He's got that jazzy feel in his improvisation like Duane would do. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
One of the best iterations of ABB was Jack and Dickey. Unfortunately, Jack had to stop touring due to illness and severe tinnitus. He is a living legend.
When's the last time you heard someone play a virtually "off the rack" Squire and completely kill like that? Derek and Jack, my 2 favorites of all time. Such an awesome pairing and and awesome song with one of the tightest bands you'll ever see. Thanks for letting it play for the most part. I've watched THIS video twice now, and I'll more than likely watch it again.
Sp glad I stumbled across your channel! I get it, this is a guitarists paradise, and you guys geek out in your own way,... i've not seen this performance-- i am a drummer, and a huge ABB guy.. my goodness these drummers shine on this amazing performance.. Of course Derek, Susan, and the rest just slay it... like ABB reincarnated.. wow. thanks for the insightful post!
Dude I was there! This might be the best live performance of any song I’ve ever seen played in my 25 years of concert going. Such raw emotion after the passing of Uncle Butch.
The “key change” is a song called ‘Soul Serenade’. The Allman Brothers Band used to throw that in during some songs also. I’ve mainly heard it in the song ‘You Don’t Love Me’ like from the A&R studios gig bootleg from ‘71. Jack put it in there as a nod to butch and the brothers for Derek, I believe. *EDIT* sorry for repeating the same thing others have said. I didn’t check the comments before leaving mine. D’oh!
What a great way to start a Saturday morning Michael. Hard to believe how many paths the rhythms and key changes went through but I loved how “in the pocket” the drums were throughout that entire section you went through. Loved how Jack uses dynamics as well from slower softer phrasings to just flat out ripping and screams...Congratulations on your channel and how you are mixing your pure love of music and musicianship with music theory,
We love watching you semi-befuddled, Mike! It's performances like this that make me realize that I'm light years away from being "expert". Thanks for making a little sense of it for us.
Guitarist from Jacksonville fl here, so glad to see the Derek Trucks love! I've learned so much about feel and soul and dynamics from the allmans in general. Awesome channel! Thank you for posting!
The coolest thing about Derek is he loves letting another guitar player shine! Never a contest with Derek!! Derek is the most UNIQUE guitarist on the planet. Probably the best curveball player ever. My favorite is when Derek and Jimmy Herring get together. Those two understand each other more than any other 2 guitar players out there!
Soooo much fun Michael! Jack is extraordinary, and you know Derek, he got to be around him and those musicians as a kid, soaking up everything. We are lucky to have them making music like that! Thanks man!
I am blessed to have seen Jack Pearson many times here in my home town of Nashville. He was a regular at small venue clubs like the Station Inn and 3rd & Lindsley. Jack never disappointed at any show I saw regardless of playing solo acoustic or with his or other bands. Sadly he seems to have stopped playing live gigs since Covid. I hope he is well, I surely do miss him.
Jack is an amazing player. I've had the pleasure of seeing him meeting him a few times. Super cool & nice dude too. He was playing with Jimmy Hall of Wet Willie back in the early 2000s in Gadsden, AL in a little bar called Chestnut Station. I recorded that show on mini disc & still have it somewhere.
Saw Jack at the Jam for Duane in Gadsden in 2007 I think. Derek Trucks in 2004 at the Cultural Arts Center there in Gadsden too. Music in Gadsden was great around that time.
@@VincentVader Same here, they were a great thing for the area. Does anything of that nature, or just good music still happen locally, well before covid?
Watch Jack Pearsons "Find a way" posted 11 years ago: mind blowing guitar playing. We need to get spread Jack Pearsons playing to as many people as we can.
I've seen TTB a bunch of times, and they amaze me every single time. Derek is just pure class, and his playing moves me in a way few guitarists have ever done.
Jack is super underrated. He's a heck of a guitarist for sure, but he's one that not a ton of people have heard. He's a guitarists guitarist, that kinda thing. He certainly meshes well with Derek in any form.
Michael - I share your enthusiasm and thanks for posting. Jack Pearson is one of the best guitarist on the planet and captures Duane’s phrasing like no one else. He pulled the best out of Derek on this night and Derek’s slide sounded like Duane on steroids. I’ve played Allman music on my guitar for 40 years - wearing out a Les Paul and a few Fillmore vinyls learning every lead - so I know what it takes to capture the energy. This was the best Elizabeth Reed I’ve ever heard.
AT 8:13 when you ask "did he put the wah on there"; no, its actually something he does with his thumb and the way he holds the pick so that different "textures" hit the string. He talks about it in his interview on UA-cam with Marty Music.
What can you say about this level of play...outstanding!!! I mean how can you even stand next to Derek onstage and actually upstage him. I'm sure Derek is grinning from ear to ear. This just doesn't happen. The legacy of the allman brothers. Shines brighter every year. Kudos!!!
I got a fender squire classic vibe 60,s I love to play it, just plays great. Glad to see you playing a squire makes me feel better about mine. I never heard jack before till the other day on another show. He does Wah wah effects without a pedal ,does it with the pick and the way he holds his hand. Never seen anything like some of the things he does. Thanks man, for a great video.
Great to see you do a Jack Pearson video! I've had the good fortune of seeing him regularly for the last 10 years in Nashville. Never disappoints! Please do a video of his organ trio. They're one of the best bands in Nashville!
Ladies and gentlemen, this an example of why when Jack auditioned for The Brothers, Dickey Betts said " We're either going to hire him or I'm going to have to take guitar lessons from him". Warren Haynes persuaded Jack to audition when he and Woody left The Brothers.
Jack's got Soul. I'm biased: but my favorite video yet! Thank you for introducing others to Jack! I'm glad that fella wrote you. Big thanks to him as well. I don't know how many people are aware that Jack's hand technique reproduces sounds you would hear with some pedals. His tone is more natural though. Too bad he had to leave the Brothers because Dickey was too loud on stage & it worsened Jack's tinitus. Oh it was so sweet to hear them go into King Curtis' Soul Serenade just like the ABB did. A man that seems to shy away from recognition, but is confident in his playing and willing to share what he knows. What a guy. That sounds like a guy running a youtube channel we all frequent. Hmmm...
Mike I love your joy as a kid....to me. Im 63. This is all Homage to Dickey and Duane. That modulation is a tribute to King Curtis whom Duane LOVED. I love seeing you youngins getting into what you missed..You probably were not born when Soul Seranade was written, but it makes me smile to see you get it now.I love what you do with Jerry as well. You are doing a great service to the kids who were not born yet,, or it was not their bag at the time. Your happiness brings me joy. You missed so much. Brian Wilson sang Maybe I just was not born for these times.You just keep doing what you are doing. It brings a smile to old gummers who saw it live. Great work. PS Jack Pearson is a master in so many styles. He is a Master as was Jerry, Dickey, and Duane. Love what you are doing. Steve
Elizabeth Reed is such a jam vehicle and Trucks certainly knows how to roll. I also love watching band members communicate or take the lead. It always makes me wonder if it's ever similar to like when a Quarter Back would see something or get an idea and call an audible.
Love your commentary brother! Amazing band live. You may want to check out jack pearson and Billy strings do this one in Nashville last year. Incredible. Thanks for what you do man. Keep up the good work!
So cool to learn that Jacks go to is a Squier - I own a couple high end humbucking guitars but still grab my 2002 era Squier with some EMG pickups 9 outta 10 times because it FEELS good. As always, thanks for the good content Michael!
Thank you so much for what you do. I am doing the lessons from you and it was watching you break songs down that “really” got me to pick up the guitar again! Thanks bro. You are an inspiration. Also, one of the videos you did, you had you new born baby with you. Beautiful baby! Hope you and your family stay safe and are always blessed! I know you have done a few Umphrey’s songs but, will you please do Mulche’s Odyssey. Studio or live. Live is better but, either one would be awesome. Thanks man
Great video as always! I found Jack Pearson through Gregg Allman’s 97 album Searching for Simplicity. Killer acoustic Whipping Post to open the album and then a solid blues album the rest of the way. One of my all time favorite albums. All fans of Jack and ABB should check it out!
Great morning all, I agree great start to the day! Try browsing live ABB at the beacon circa 1998 Jack rips through Bluesky.... I'm still trying to figure that one out!. Cheers.....love the guitar cult many can't concept the fact that we are ear candy geeks
Catching up on some missed vids! Should be a decent fri afternoon, Hope all goes well on sunday my good sir! Looking forward to hearing something a bit different. Cheers brother! - Anything with trucks and im buckled in for the ride. Edit- those were some of the tastiest ascending and descending licks ever by pearson!!
Jack Pearson and Tommy Emmanuel jams are legit.. you're watching 2 masters push each other to the end of the improvisational earth to get the best out of each other.
I'm glad Jack's on your radar Michael. He's the guy a guy like you should be paying attention to. I live in Nashville, and all my favorite players - when they want to be inspired - they go see Jack. He's on a whole other level for sure - and even if you've achieved mastery of your instrument - he can teach you a thing or two. He does all kinds of tricks with the instrument as well, I bet you when he did that wah thing he was doing it with his fingers - I've seen him to it live without even having a pedal. He can do a delay like that too - it's super cool. Take some time if you can and find some of his other stuff on UA-cam people have uploaded - I'm sure it will give you some great ideas for lessons.
Jack Pearson... Wow, dude was not on my radar... Ever feel like WTF am I living under a rock LOL! Now I have to go on a deep dive into Jack Person! Thank you - And... that band! Such bad asses! Trucks is amazing as always. This is Magic!
12:39 "What in god's name...?" Incredible performance and really enjoyed the reaction. While the AV tech side sucked, the vid certainly carried the emotion and energy coming off that stage on what must have been a very difficult time. I went to the full vid and listened to the 1st half then came back here - well worth a listen. Pearson is a beast. Thanks yet again MP. EDIT: I just realized why Pearson is so familiar to me - he was the lead guitarist for Renegade, a very popular bar band in the late 70s who did stints here in Fl (note there were like 5 bands called Renegade!). I must've seen him several times as a teenager, but only now connected it after reading his bio. Amazing.
Jack Pearson is amazing he can sound like he has a wha when he doesn't, he says he uses different textures with his right hand he is amazing and he does it on a Squire.
I can almost guarantee you that if you reached out to Jack Pearson he would do a sky meeting like you did with Ian. He is one of the most humble dudes you will ever meet.
Have you met him
@@trentwalker9223 yeah a few years back at a local show. It was brief but super nice guy. At the time he was doing Skype lessons
@@cglasford1 you’re lucky man I want to see him play and talk to him he’s a badass player and seems like an amazing guy
Jack Pearson is the most underrated guitarist of all time. The fact that he does it all on Squiers makes him even cooler. And as always, the TTB is the best band on the planet.
“Jack Pearson is a bad bad boy” Tom Bukovac
what vid did he say this? Two of my favorites...
Lori kislack it’s on an episode of Homeskoolin on Uncle Larry’s channel, I can’t remember which one but you should just watch all of them
@@johnshanesyandtheaccommoda1189 that's what I figured, and I've seen all of them, just baffles me that I don't remember him mentioning it. It would def be something I should remember. Thx
Episode 10 if memory serves
I was there that night. It was church man. Was a couple of days after Butch died. Jack told me that was one of the most special nights of music for him, his band opened and killed.
I have been on a Jack Pearson binge lately and am really enjoying his playing. Just incredible.
That's so awesome to hear. Love me some Jack Pearson too. Trucks and Pearson blend together so effortlessly. It's quite something.
Cool that you used the video I recorded. Thanks for explaining some of that musical wondrousness I witnessed that evening. Wish I could have provided a better quality video but it was an iPhone 7 so you get what you get,. Glad people are getting to hear what some of us heard that night. Peace.

Totally agree. Got to see Jack play 3 times with the Brothers. What a treat.
What??? Lmao!!!
You are correct sir.🍑
Absolutely on point my friend!

Thats Dereks younger brother on drums. He plays in Widespread panic now and when the Alman’s did their 50th anniversary show.
Never has one solo made me wanna quit guitar and play guitar so much as this one. I’m 3 years in as a 16 year old, Jack and Derek make grin like no other players in the world

Jack Pearson is currently my favourite player. You gotta see him play jazz ! Outstanding!
Jack Pearson is ridiculous. And he plays Squiers. Gear snobs eat your hearts out.
This dude is so good. I put him in Duane territory.he's mostly just paying attention to the drummer and doing what he wants to do. He's got that jazzy feel in his improvisation like Duane would do. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
Everything Music & Guitar Shenanigans i luv ur profile pic srv my fav!!!!
The second part of that jam is basically Sugaree. That was an incredible performance all around
It’s a similar major jam in a different key but it’s actually derived from a king Curtis song called soul serenade
I got to see Pearson with the Allman Brothers band during his time with them back in the late 90’s. Such a killer show!
derek trucks playing is so freaking tasty that you have to pull guitar faces even tho you are not playing it yourself
Pearson is one of my heros and got me interested in cheap guitars and making them sound good.
Liz into Soul Serenade. Jack gave Derek one of his first breaks back when Derek was like 12. Sweet!! 💖
This is the greatest rock instrumental ever written. Wash away all the drama. Thank you Dickey. I will always love you.
One of the best iterations of ABB was Jack and Dickey. Unfortunately, Jack had to stop touring due to illness and severe tinnitus. He is a living legend.
When's the last time you heard someone play a virtually "off the rack" Squire and completely kill like that?
Derek and Jack, my 2 favorites of all time.
Such an awesome pairing and and awesome song with one of the tightest bands you'll ever see.
Thanks for letting it play for the most part.
I've watched THIS video twice now, and I'll more than likely watch it again.
Squire "Custom Shop" 🤣🤣
Sp glad I stumbled across your channel! I get it, this is a guitarists paradise, and you guys geek out in your own way,... i've not seen this performance-- i am a drummer, and a huge ABB guy.. my goodness these drummers shine on this amazing performance..

Dude I was there! This might be the best live performance of any song I’ve ever seen played in my 25 years of concert going. Such raw emotion after the passing of Uncle Butch.
Also, brother Duane Trucks sits in on J.J.s kit. I’d say he wanted to be with his family.
I was there as well! Amazing show
Yes me too! we were there! no words
Thanks for playing that. Best band, best guitars in the business
In the middle they started to play Soul Serenade by King Curtis. Duane loved interjecting this tune in long jams.
The change 20 minutes in is a variation from You don’t love me know more…that morphs.
If your don’t have tears in your eyes after this one you don’t have a soul
Every time I think about buying a nice guitar, I remember that Jack Pearson just kills it with a < $300 Indonesian Squire Strat.
300 would be way up in the high range. He likes them around a hundred bucks. He makes guitar snobs cry.
His favorite Squier was like 80 bucks, what a legend
I like the Indonesian ones...
- Jack Pearson 😂
Jack is really great player and a great nice guy! We had the great pleasure to play with him.
The “key change” is a song called ‘Soul Serenade’. The Allman Brothers Band used to throw that in during some songs also.

Rather Low by Nick Shoulders! Hes got a real unique tone to his voice and I think you would enjoy it alot!
I’ve been jamming to Snakes and Waterfalls and G for Jesus lately!
Just found your channel. I'm liking these videos. It helps to brush up on some theory knowledge.

So thrilled you got turned on to Jack and shared this! What an extraordinary musician.
That modulation was Duanes tribute very recently after King Curtis was so tragically murdered.
Great video! All I can say about This band is WOW!
Have seen Jack several times, great player, Check out his song I'm not crying live with the Allman Brothers .Great Stuff
Saw Jack at the Ryman a couple times, also a an encore guy with Govt Mule and with TTB and oh my was it magical...
Ladies and gentlemen, this an example of why when Jack auditioned for The Brothers, Dickey Betts said " We're either going to hire him or I'm going to have to take guitar lessons from him". Warren Haynes persuaded Jack to audition when he and Woody left The Brothers.
Jack's got Soul.

Love this choice
Mike I love your joy as a kid....to me. Im 63. This is all Homage to Dickey and Duane. That modulation is a tribute to King Curtis whom Duane LOVED. I love seeing you youngins getting into what you missed..You probably were not born when Soul Seranade was written, but it makes me smile to see you get it now.I love what you do with Jerry as well. You are doing a great service to the kids who were not born yet,, or it was not their bag at the time. Your happiness brings me joy. You missed so much. Brian Wilson sang Maybe I just was not born for these times.You just keep doing what you are doing. It brings a smile to old gummers who saw it live. Great work. PS Jack Pearson is a master in so many styles. He is a Master as was Jerry, Dickey, and Duane. Love what you are doing. Steve
Jack is the most humble and generous player alive. a rare quality these days. The Master!!!
mates from ABB day. Love these folks
I’ve said it a million times , hands down one of the best bands out there working today!!
What a great pic by one of your fans...brilliant!
Great way to start my Saturday morning. Good stuff.

I know you have done a few Umphrey’s songs but, will you please do Mulche’s Odyssey. Studio or live. Live is better but, either one would be awesome. Thanks man
Midnight in Harlem where Derek plays amazing slide. Brings tears and goose bumps.
Lol....I love watching you react....there is a love of the game here!!! Keep it up!!!👍
Great video as always! I found Jack Pearson through Gregg Allman’s 97 album Searching for Simplicity. Killer acoustic Whipping Post to open the album and then a solid blues album the rest of the way. One of my all time favorite albums. All fans of Jack and ABB should check it out!
Yes, criminally underrated album!! Just as Jack's guitar playing is!
Great morning all, I agree great start to the day! Try browsing live ABB at the beacon circa 1998 Jack rips through Bluesky.... I'm still trying to figure that one out!. Cheers.....love the guitar cult many can't concept the fact that we are ear candy geeks
That guitar you have is amazing
Catching up on some missed vids! Should be a decent fri afternoon, Hope all goes well on sunday my good sir! Looking forward to hearing something a bit different. Cheers brother! - Anything with trucks and im buckled in for the ride. Edit- those were some of the tastiest ascending and descending licks ever by pearson!!
That's Duane Trucks setting in on drums as well.they bring a player on to feature them you should watch the first half.
Jack Pearson and Tommy Emmanuel jams are legit.. you're watching 2 masters push each other to the end of the improvisational earth to get the best out of each other.
Jack Pearson is taking the audience and the band on a journey. Those 2 drummers are nsync
Gotta love when Roy shows up in Jack's playing here
Soul Serenade is an Aretha song that King Curtis (and others) covered.
Had no idea who the cap wearing guitarist was with Dickey Betts when the ABB hit the stage in the mid-90s. Found out, though.
Saturday morning vibes 🎧
I'm glad Jack's on your radar Michael. He's the guy a guy like you should be paying attention to. I live in Nashville, and all my favorite players - when they want to be inspired - they go see Jack. He's on a whole other level for sure - and even if you've achieved mastery of your instrument - he can teach you a thing or two.
He does all kinds of tricks with the instrument as well, I bet you when he did that wah thing he was doing it with his fingers - I've seen him to it live without even having a pedal. He can do a delay like that too - it's super cool.
Take some time if you can and find some of his other stuff on UA-cam people have uploaded - I'm sure it will give you some great ideas for lessons.
Jack Pearson... Wow, dude was not on my radar... Ever feel like WTF am I living under a rock LOL! Now I have to go on a deep dive into Jack Person! Thank you - And... that band! Such bad asses! Trucks is amazing as always. This is Magic!
12:39 "What in god's name...?"
Incredible performance and really enjoyed the reaction. While the AV tech side sucked, the vid certainly carried the emotion and energy coming off that stage on what must have been a very difficult time. I went to the full vid and listened to the 1st half then came back here - well worth a listen. Pearson is a beast. Thanks yet again MP.
EDIT: I just realized why Pearson is so familiar to me - he was the lead guitarist for Renegade, a very popular bar band in the late 70s who did stints here in Fl (note there were like 5 bands called Renegade!). I must've seen him several times as a teenager, but only now connected it after reading his bio. Amazing.
Cornell Dupree - (King Curtis live at Fillmore band) Allman/Trucks band !!!
Liz Reed>Les Bres for a second?>Soul Serenade.!? What the fuck!? Amazing
Jack Pearson is amazing he can sound like he has a wha when he doesn't, he says he uses different textures with his right hand he is amazing and he does it on a Squire.
You need to do the og of Liz reed Version at Fillmore East 71
Jack Pearson is a sharp guy, heard a lot of licks from the Fillmore East version here.
