The tall girl is Gwendolyn Gillingham-McIlvaine, and she is 6'7". She played basketball for North Carolina, and is now married to 7'1" Jim McIlvaine. She has an older sister Heidi Gillingham who played basketball for Vanderbilt and is 6'8",even though they listed her at 6'10". These girls out grew even there father who was 6'6". Oh, and I love Junior Brown :)
The reason I love Brown's music is because it sounds like REAL Country Music! Not like the crap they play on the radio these days. Brown's music is the type of Country I remember when I was a small child. What happened to that beautiful style?
Okay I hope you're all happy. I watched this before going to bed. Then woke up with this song in my head. Later on proceeded to go to work and sing it in the halls (I am a teacher) as I did hall duty. School hallways have outstanding acoustics ...
I met him in 1997 at Merle Fest in Wilkesboro, NC. An extraordinarily polite man, and his talent is beyond belief. Country/western, rockabilly, and surf guitar. He has been a major influence in my playing. He also has a great sense of humor. Thanks Jr.
Does this group ever fail to entertain with absolute positive results!? I Wish country music was country like this.. Thanks for the real deal J.B. & Band!!!
He has his own sound and it is throwback golden age rockabilly mixed with his invention........ Ahhhhhh, I can't describe it, I just know I love his sound. And seeing him live is a real experience!
I love the way how they put this video like an old-fashioned 1900's film with just music. I am not a music country music fan but I came across this song on the radio and I actually like this song. It is a good country song with a steel guitar.
Underrated guitar player? Not in my book! Never mind the custom instrument that has both guitar AND slide… Show me one other musician who has THIS going on!🎸 Love you, Junior and Tanya Ray Brown!! PS - that is one hell of a funny video…
@@BaconTomatoCheeseJunior Brown isn’t “under rated” by anyone who has touched a guitar and listened to him play for 30 seconds. And yes the “guitsteel” (at least I think that’s what he calls it) is pure genius.
Saw Jr. in concert a few months ago....he is incredible and yes, his tribute to Jimi Hendrix was phenomenal! He's so talented, even did a tribute to BB King who had just passed. Wish more people knew about him....his way with words and chords...wow!
I accidentally ran into this video, he is awesome! The video was incredible, made me laugh and the music outstanding. The lyrics, the music, the whole video performance was smooth like butter. I loved it!
Saw Junior Brown and Bob Dylan outside on a summer evening in a baseball field. One of the greatest concert ever! Stevie Ray Vaughan‘s brother was there with a really cute fiddle player from TX. Met Junior once in western WI as well. Almost forgot, got to see Junior Brown in Eau Claire Wisconsin for 20 bucks at the stones throw, medium size bar. So awesome! It’s like I just discovered Junior again just now. If you know, you know.
Years ago I was lucky enough to get to play with Junior at a small festival. I will always say it was honestly one of my most favorite things I've ever gotten to do. He was very nice and polite to talk with. And yes I was very intimidated with my level of guitar playing compared to his.
@@stealzero I always thought I was a good guitar player. never once had any issues where I didn't feel like I was on top of my game. When Junior started playing I felt like I was just beginning to learn to play. I even went back to checking my finger placement chord wise. I was that so damn worried I was going to mess up. He was cool and told me "Good job man!" I bout nearly had a heart attack.
this guy is a trip . plays country like nobodys business then plays surfer music . i think he grew up with listening to the Ventures dang good too , anyway i like his style . Ever see his jimmy hendricks wholle shitzz he is somthing .
I came here after a jam session where one of the guys pulled this song out, did a real nice job of it and we all kind of tagged along. Great song. Fun to jam to. Awesome video.
I saw Jr. in concert. It was so fun. After the concert we got to meet him. A young boy was in front of us. It was obvious he was sick. Jr. Brown was overwhelmed that he wanted his autograph and sighed his hat than took a picture. Such a nice man. One of the best ever.
Saw Junior just last night at a small club in Ma. What a great show! He almost plucked the strings off of that guit-steel he plays! He broke hs pick, threw it in the audience, then grabbed another & kept right on playing. Worth the money to see this guy in person if you get the chance.
Haven't read all the other comments but I just gotta say that whoever directed this must have a deep knowledge/appreciation for the silent era...KUDOS on an excellent job! There are so many subtle (and accurate) bits of business that are clearly of this genre. Am astounded at Junior's funny antics and he somewhat reminds me of Buster Keaton in some mannerisms and wardrobe. Thoroughly enjoyable song AND video!
I can't believe I just now found this song! ROTFLMAO!!! This is my new favorite song! Just don't tell my wife. She thinks 'ole Rawhide is dead. THANKS FOR POSTING !!!
I used to listen to KUT driving home after working afternoons. They had a program called 'Texas Radio' on Sundays evenings and that's the first time I heard this song, still a favorite......
So I stumbled on this artist on you tbe playing what he called Surf Medley, it started with a bassy tune I remembered as Pipeline taught to me by my bandleader and teacher, Mr. Marlin in the late 1960s. It was our intro and exit between sets, I had never heard it anywhere else before, it ended with Secret Aggent Man, which I think was by the same guy who wrote 8 miles high, Johnny something, now I find he has great songs from the 90s. What the f
Haha first time Ive ever seen this vid, thanks for posting. I adore Junior Brown and his music, its a crime that this guys isn't cleaning up every year on the CMA awards, instead of the pop crap we do see. Shows how much Nashville has lost its way. Junior is a true original, such a talent in all respects.
"BUT BABY!!! WHO ARE YA GONNA BELIEVE?!?!?! ME, OR YOUR OWN LYING EYES!!!! Now, put the gun down, .... Whadda ya say? " ;-) I hear this tune, and that scene in the original "Blues Brothers," pops into my mind, where John Belushi cops a plea to Carrie Fisher, and I am saying to myself; "There isn't a woman alive, including his mother, who would believe what he's was saying, he's a dead man!" I look at my watch, and think to myself; "There is too much movie left, if she kills him..." TOOoo FUNNY!!! Thank You for posting this video, I got a real good laugh out of it!!! Be Well, Will
![The Dead South - In Hell I'll Be In Good Company [Official Music Video]](/img/n.gif)
Country needs more of juniors style of real conutry music. I could liesten to him all day long. A real guitar picker. Real talent
People don't seem to care about the Roy Clarks or the Glen Campbells anymore. Only that artists can churn out autotuned pseudo-pop crap.
yep. I am Ukrainian and I love Junior Brown. I guess, its just for the chosen people.
The tall girl is Gwendolyn Gillingham-McIlvaine, and she is 6'7". She played basketball for North Carolina, and is now married to 7'1" Jim McIlvaine. She has an older sister Heidi Gillingham who played basketball for Vanderbilt and is 6'8",even though they listed her at 6'10". These girls out grew even there father who was 6'6". Oh, and I love Junior Brown :)
Thanks for that. She totally makes the video.
amazin'
I'd really love to hear the story of how she came to be involved in the video!
Neat info! She was also in Venom Wearin' Denim.
One of the smoothest guitar players that ever played, sad he’s not more popular.
force his music on people that's what I do lol
yep, and add unknown hinson :)
I think he's great 😊
All these PLAYERS and metal guys love him...
Kinda like Buck Owens and The Beatles...
The Beatles LOVED BUCK... Till Paul died and FAUL took over...
@@jpb1231000 his wife too.she’s a top tier player herself.
Woman is six-foot, seven-inch Gwendolyn Gillingham of the 1994 NCAA Women’s Division I champion University of North Carolina basketball team
I think Junior Brown is one of the most talented guitar players period! I love his music
Fully!!!! Super smooth, (no finger sounds up the neck). Wish there was more of this CLASSIC sound
The reason I love Brown's music is because it sounds like REAL Country Music! Not like the crap they play on the radio these days.
Brown's music is the type of Country I remember when I was a small child.
What happened to that beautiful style?
Hip Hop ....
Okay I hope you're all happy. I watched this before going to bed. Then woke up with this song in my head. Later on proceeded to go to work and sing it in the halls (I am a teacher) as I did hall duty. School hallways have outstanding acoustics ...
100% agree. I'm a janitor and I find the corner of the school's gym has the best sound early in the morning before anybody is in.
Love it ❤ The song,the video, Junior and Wife. Awesome!
This guy is old school country and I love his twangy guitar
He brings a great 50's feel of country music
@@williamgolden839 yeah its that Western swing... never grows old
and smoky smooth voice
But he can play surf music with the best of 'em...not a style he can't play!
He's amazing
I met him in 1997 at Merle Fest in Wilkesboro, NC. An extraordinarily polite man, and his talent is beyond belief. Country/western, rockabilly, and surf guitar. He has been a major influence in my playing. He also has a great sense of humor. Thanks Jr.
Does this group ever fail to entertain with absolute positive results!?
I Wish country music was country like this.. Thanks for the real deal J.B. & Band!!!
I saw Junior and his band last night at the Mint in Hailey, Idaho. He still brings it! Tonya Rae and he have a great chemistry and great harmonies!
He has his own sound and it is throwback golden age rockabilly mixed with his invention........
Ahhhhhh, I can't describe it, I just know I love his sound.
And seeing him live is a real experience!
I love junior Brown and this song in particular. First time I’ve seen this video. Beyond classic!
Her name's Gwendolyn Gillingham, she used to play basketball for North Carolina back in the 90s.
@Fin take care
That figures!
Ol’ String bean.
They made her look like Aimee Mann and even put Aimees boots on her
I love the way how they put this video like an old-fashioned 1900's film with just music. I am not a music country music fan but I came across this song on the radio and I actually like this song. It is a good country song with a steel guitar.
Pure genius 💯🔥 song/ video " juniors pure talent"life doesn't get much better than this 🙉🙈🙊
The song and video are hilarious and Junior Brown is a VERY underrated guitar player.
His wife is better than him. Not joking and he said it himself
Underrated guitar player? Not in my book! Never mind the custom instrument that has both guitar AND slide… Show me one other musician who has THIS going on!🎸 Love you, Junior and Tanya Ray Brown!! PS - that is one hell of a funny video…

Hahaha this is so good!! I've never heard of him before, great picking, great voice, great story
Saw Jr. in concert a few months ago....he is incredible and yes, his tribute to Jimi Hendrix was phenomenal! He's so talented, even did a tribute to BB King who had just passed. Wish more people knew about him....his way with words and chords...wow!
+Catherine Halford I have also seen him. Junior can play anything. And he sounds exactly like this live! Great voice and player.
He always hits a home run. And ain't he never disappoints. Nice post
How stunningly funny and original! Great vocals, super inspired riffs - he just grabs and borrows from the past and plays it even better.
Saw this video many years ago and found it hilarious! Still do...
Moi aussi !
Each and every day I get my dose of Junior Brown....just sets my mind right!
"My hat looks like a taco, and I don't give a rip...."
Don't know why I'm listening to this song in 2024; however, I'm going to play it again. I like it.
Great song and a fun video.
JR is so under-appreciated- His biggest fans seem to be other very talented musicians.His wife is just *so* hot!
+Bill Datz His wife is hot, but also just very fits the band, they are an ass kicking Hillbilly kung Fu team
Saw them in Harrisburg, Pa, last night with the Blasters and Horton Heat. He said they have been together for thirty years.
Ken Moore I'm going to see the same lineup right after Thanksgiving in Minneapolis! Can't wait!
Not even remotely a musician (let alone talented) but I've loved his music for years.
He seems to have a good reputation in the area. At least Rev Horton Heat and Jimbo are fans.
. The best country music I've heard in 40 years.
fuck I think this guy has really been underrated! he's so funny and talented and fresh!
I met Junior Brown 2005 summer concert series civic auditorium, abq., n.m.
Good man.
I haven’t heard this song in ages wow 🤩
I accidentally ran into this video, he is awesome! The video was incredible, made me laugh and the music outstanding. The lyrics, the music, the whole video performance was smooth like butter. I loved it!
If you like this one - Listen to "I got to get up every morning just to say goodnight to you" by Junior Brown. You'll like it guaranteed!
Not only can he play that outstanding dual-guitar, Junior Brown can be funny as well.

Never tell a 6-7 Amazon woman she's crazy in her head lol...
Everybody take a minute for a hats off and a Happy Birthday to Emmylou Harris on her 77th today.

First timing hearing him and I love this music! Can’t wait to hear more!
Magnificent looking woman. Nose to nose the toes go...toes to toes the nose goes!
I love his voice! And this is too funny.
This has got to be the absolute best music video of all time. Love the "keystone cops" and the silent movie style. Thanks for uploading this video!
Just a great song and a good video set to the style of the music.
Absolutely hilarious. Love it.
I came here after a jam session where one of the guys pulled this song out, did a real nice job of it and we all kind of tagged along. Great song. Fun to jam to. Awesome video.

Just here for some cultural enrichment. God bless America 🇺🇸
Saw Junior just last night at a small club in Ma. What a great show! He almost plucked the strings off of that guit-steel he plays! He broke hs pick, threw it in the audience, then grabbed another & kept right on playing. Worth the money to see this guy in person if you get the chance.
One of my favorite JB songs. Great video too!
This guy has an awesome sense of humor.
And talent, O M G
Very fun and inventive song. Cool video, too.
Smoother than butter on glass 🎸
Some great lyrics ! Great real old nashville sound ! Great musicians , Cudos,and thanks for posting .
I am not a big country fan but Jr Brown is awesome. I would love to see what he could do on a rock n roll song with his guitar playing.
thecrocksays same
thecrocksays check out Rock And Roll Medley
1996 CMA Award for Video of the Year!! Hilarious!

Jr, you're a true Texan , thank you for your excellent Western swing country music , you're the real deal
I want to go-to one of your concerts so bad
He’s the greatest guitarist of my life, he’s simply all that and a bag of chips.
Seriously good video production. Its a shame today's music videos don't have as much thought put into them. Always a fan of Mr Brown.
Great video. Great artist. Unbeatable combination.
I LOVE JUNIOR BROWN & RASCAL FLAT! Good singing, easy on the ears!!
I can't believe I just now found this song! ROTFLMAO!!! This is my new favorite song! Just don't tell my wife. She thinks 'ole Rawhide is dead. THANKS FOR POSTING !!!
