Jake Owen - East Bound and Down ft. The Schwab Firebird (Official Music Video)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Nothing like combining a few of my favorites together…music, classic cars, and golf. Had way too much fun teaming up with Charles Schwab to cover and make a video of Jerry Reed’s massive hit East Bound and Down. We even had Jerry’s grandson playing drums!
We chose this nostalgic song to celebrate the prize that will be awarded to this year's Charles Schwab Challenge winner - a '79 Schwab Firebird - built to honor the year that Schwab went all-in on technology.
The Charles Schwab Challenge is the longest-running event on The PGA TOUR to be played in the same location. It is played at Colonial Country Club in Texas every Memorial Day weekend.

Jerry Reed, Burt Reynolds, Hal Needham, and Jackie Gleason are smiling down from Heaven. Jake Owen nailed it! Now that’s country music!
And we all know what Jackie Gleason said. And we all know that he still couldn’t say it right 😂
I had no idea they were all dead…
That a big 10-4 right there good buddy
@@JNB4L "what we're dealing with here, is a completly lack of respect for the law"
@@codydonovan7356 Yes, sadly we've lost them all. Jackie Gleason in 1987, Jerry Reed in 2008, Hal Needham in 2013 and Burt Reynolds in 2018.
Damn, son. When the black Trans Am passed the blue one I got goosebumps.
"Player recognize player."
That was an early 70s model
Well shit, Texas looks cool. But hey there’s always Mexico.
@@KSW_HeavyChest Yeah. Just about EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE has a thing for cars!
WTF is WRONG with you
Jerry is looking down smiling right now ❤
Long live the Snow Man
And Fred!
I doubt it. Just because he did it doesnt make it good
@@NickRangerthe absolute lack of an A model Kenworth guts the premise of the whole song.
amen
Amazing how a 40+ year old song can bring a smile to my face. 😁😃
And a few tears as well my friend..😢😢
Exactly
☺️ ❤
100%
Still tear up missing Jerry and Burt 😢.... Nice remake but nothing will ever be as good as the original. Ive met Jerry and Burt both, nobody will ever show off like they did.❤.
Smoky and The Bandit was one of my favorites back then. Kids today missed the best of Hollywood. Today, I don't even turn on a TV, Hollywood is dead..
Long live Jerry Reeds music!! Nice job!!
You can't beat classic music whether it's country,pop,rock or hip hop. Thanks Jake for this honorable cover.
This takes me back to 1977. Everything seemed so laid back compared to today. There again, i was only 3. My younger brother and i took the keys to my dad's Ford Capri and we started doing donuts in the road outside our house. Great days.
At 3? Yes, I believe you.
HKP, awesome name and cartoon ❤
It's nice to see people still love this awesome song.
Thanks 🎉for the love , dedication , care and support you have showed me for years now ..I need to appreciate you all because am nothing without you all ….Are you one of my best, great and lovely 🥰 Fans out there?
Great cover. Can tell the guitar player grew up on Jerry Reed and just nailed this after many years of playing along. Want to hear him do Amos Moses next
Really
Almost positive that is Tom Bukovac aka "Uncle Larry", an amazing session guitarist, he has a UA-cam channel called Homeskoolin.
Telecaster sound from a Les Paul????
I was singing this the other day to my 6 month old son. My wife had never heard it. I was like, your dad taught me everything I know about cars and you've never heard this? So I played this for her today after it came through my feed. Thanks Jake for the awesome rendition
Your son will grow up with great taste in music!
Well, how'd the Mrs. like it? 🤔🙆♀️🎼🎶🪕🎸🎙😉
This is perfect . Finally some true country music in this modern era of crappy country
Jerry Reed and Burt Reynolds are rolling over in their graves right now, so sad he made a mockery of this legendary song.
Love it 🤠 My late husband drove a semi and he, myself and our children could watch Smokey and the Bandit over and over. Good Memories. I miss him 😢
Bless you. Hang in there and keep those memories close by.
@@brandon-be8rm Thank you, May God Bless You and yes I will carry the memories forever in my heart 💙
Fans, how are you doing?thank you for liking my page and my music God bless you
Where are u watching from?
Thanks Jake for this awesome video! In today's world of pop music being passed of as country music by the music labels you sir are a breath of fresh air!
Now this is how a a remake is suppose to go. You did amazing!
Jerry reed would be proud! Awesome job!!
I agree
And Burt Reynolds for that matter
Yes he would. Great job Jake, shout out to Brother!
Sure would 👌😊👌🤘🤘🚛🚔🚛🚔
Dude snowman would be honored beyond delight to know this , ima add this to my collection when i get a chance to ima have 3 versions of this now
He paid homage to original by showing
engaging automatic transmission then later in the song it shows him shifting a 4-speed transmission. How many of you caught that in the movie back in the day?
Whoa! Never caught that! Good stuff man!
Also the white and blue car was a 77 yr model however the black one is a 76,, just thought it odd they used a black 76 with the hurst 4 speed, my mom had a 76 just like in the video,, moms always been a speed freak,, lol
@@paultyler4324 pretty sure blue and white was a 79. Both beautiful cars.
@@paultyler4324 the blue is a 79 or possible 80, the black is anywhere from a 74 to 76,and neither of them are what was in the movie which was a 77
And the cop car ain't even a Bonneville either I think its a polara (Mopar) like roscoes car off the dukes of Hazzard
This is a masterpiece a mix between old and new Jerry Reed's classic brought back to life. LETS HAUL ASS!
Love the User and pfp
Long Live The General! 🇺🇸
@@MuricaFkYeah Thanks brother🤙
Jerry Reed is smiling down over this cover. Great job loved it
Thanks 🎉for the love , dedication , care and support you have showed me for years now ..I need to appreciate you all because am nothing without you all ….Are you one of my best, great and lovely 🥰 Fans out there?
Run fast Snowman & Bandit wherever You are Dudes.❤🙏
that jerry reed 8-track was a hilarious touch
I tell ya what. I can't stand it when someone takes a classic song like this and puts their own spin on it and fuck it all up. You, sir, did a fantastic job. Great, solid cover of a tune that should never be messed with.
I watch it every summer. Make a drinking game of it and take a sip every time someone says Bandit. 😁🍻
I've loved Jerry Reeds music and I've grown up watching Smokey and the bandit one and two but this is officially my favorite version of the song the snowman and the bandit would be proud
I still blast that song as loud as i can when I listen to it. Even if its just a cover its nice to hear that someone in Nashville still knows what country is.
There's a lot of people who still know what country is in Nashville. They unfortunately have to play crap it get a gig. It's heartbreaking.
Jerry Reed and Burt Reynolds. 2 classic personalities that will never be duplicated
This is a great tribute to one of the greatest Noles there ever was. Great job Jake.
Uncle Larry with the fantastic guitar solo! Wooo!
Ahh man 😃 bringing back my childhood Saturday night film nights,this is AWESOME,Jerry Reed is up there tilting his Stetson,Jake Owen,you done him proud brother 🤙
My grandpa sang with jerry reed back in the day, I actually have some old 45’s of them and maaaaan jerry would be proud of this cover.
Love it! In 1975 I was 8 years old and went to the drive in for the first time and saw Smokey and The Bandit! Love it then and still.do!😂😂
That was awesome!! I'm glad he didn't try to jazz it up like most singers do with a cover of an older song.
I loved my blue 78 Trans Am!! She was fast!!
@@sandraholmes7694 are you from Owensboro by chance?
The Good old days of smokie and the bandit
The classics never end or never fail either
Burt Ryanolds
Sally field
The good old memories
Love that iconic firebird as well
My dad grew up watching this movie
🕊️ Of ✌️
So sad that Sally went "woke". She has severe TDS.
Was für ein geiler Wagen . Der Song passt absolut ... Bandit / Burt einfach spitze ..... 😊😊
Awesome vídeo...i LOVE 70's era..movies..Cars ,attitude...💙👍😁💙
Repping the Larry Fleet hat!! One of the best guys to listen to in concert
Jerry Reed was my 1st concert in Waco, Texas at age 5. My dad took me, then afterwards took me on stage to get Jerry and the bands autograph on a picture of Jerry. Was a great concert
Hello there Phes it's nice meeting you here
Hi, thanks for being a good fan of mine your comments attracted me to you. And keep supporting while I bring more entertainment to your way
Where are you watching from
Jerry's grandson on drums!? Legit as it comes man! Thanks for the amazing cover... respect!
That is one beautiful car. Brings back so many memories of watching Smokey and the Bandit. My parents had a Trans Am that was black with gold just like the one in the movie. The car was in a shop when it caught fire, so we lost the car.
Oof, sorry for the loss ☹️
Great job Jake! Always loved Smokey and the Bandit and the fact that Charles Schwab is sponsored in this makes it even cooler.
Way to give new life to one of the best songs of the 80s
Jake.... Jerry Reed would be really proud of this one!!! You did it right son! Great job!!!
Yeehaw!! Jerry and Burt are smiling down!!😁🤘
See the smile? That's Jerry's son on the drums❤
One of my favorite songs from a movie ever.
Hell yes!!! Bad ass american classic!!!
This is pretty good, sounds like the original. Love that movie!
That’s because he’s been auto tuned.
@@PDMcG1091 autotuned carburetor lol
My bus driver was an Owens and she was the best! I enjoy doing what they say can’t be done whenever I can.
A classic song among classics. All hail Mr. Burt Reynolds!!! All hail Mr. Jerry Reed!!! All hail the one and only Jackie Gleason!!!
And the man himself Mr. Hal Needham for bringing those three together for one of the greatest films of all time.
Hey, that’s Uncle Larry on guitar! 👍
Love this song and Jake Owen did a great job on this song
I still love the movie to this day! Gosh I loved driving my cousin's TA back then, I'd wash it just to get to drive it and felt like the coolest girl in town. this car is a beauty! But it was sweet to see a black TA take over at the end, I miss fun movies like then. Nice job Jake, love to see younger artists play the old school music today and seem to totally enjoy the chance! Thanks everyone for sharing some of the facts on this new video too.
