Burt Video: Evening Shade Promo

Golden Globe winner Burt Reynolds welcomes Dom Deluise to Evening Shade.




One-time-Burt-Reynolds-wingman Jerry Reed got some love via Shane Harrison of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution today. The paper did a feature on Georgia's "real" guitar heroes - people like Duane Allman, Kaki King and ... Jerry REED!


Feast on this:



JERRY REED: His distinctive guitar playing was overshadowed by his slightly jokey hits (like "Amos Moses" and "When You're Hot, You're Hot") and his acting career, including the "Smokey and the Bandit" movies. The king of country guitarists, Chet Atkins, was a fan and collaborator of Reed's. Listen closely to "Amos Moses" or Reed's many terrific instrumentals; it's obvious he knows his way around a fretboard. Text: Shane Harrison; photo: W.A. Bridges Jr. / AJC

I would have never guessed that there was a Dom Deloise/ Burt Reynolds collaboration out there . . . it just doesn't fit in with the rest of burts work....
