- Here is the second clip shot with my amazing Osmo 4k gimbal on a stick! I love this thing! In this clip Junior started out with some blues rippin' and worked his way through some surf tunes, that you all will recognize! If you ever get a chance, I highly recommend Junior Brown Live on stage!
- Hudba
I once heard him say “you walk out onto a stage wearing a hat like this, you better be able to play that guitar”
Saw him last night (6/14/23). If you are a guitar player or love guitar music he is a must see!
One of the all time greats that deserves a lot more recognition than he ever got. Junior Brown is the real deal.
and his wife is equally a fine musician.
Robin Trower had the same problem
where one thinks Van Halen got a glimmer
He's still alive. Just sayin.
Funny strange How a lounge act player in a polyester suit was one of the Best surf guitar players of all time and a Highly underrated guitar Hero. He is awesome been a fan for a long time. Love to listen to his surf medley.
Oh and the cowboy Hat is the cherry on top
To me the hat looks like he's riding a bull with style and flare to the max and I would assume it is to get him into the zone especially the suit because if you look good you feel good and if you feel good of course you play good so the shoes he is wearing maybe florishimes or Adidas LOL yes he truly rocks though
I'll say it again...surf music is the most underrated American genre ever. I'm guessing JB has never paddled out, but daaaaammmnn he shreds!
killer blues, awesome guitar, pretty wife, Junior Brown is a BAD ASS!
You'd be hard pressed to find anyone that could do it better than Ol' Junior Brown!!!!! Way underrated musician!!
Old Junior sure has fun too!
Cant understand why this guy is not way major famous.
Junior ain't from Texas.....but he got here as quick as he could....I reckon he can stay. 👍
mopjockey57 His whole band is sick
Junior doesnt have to hang his head down or his 🎶 hat 🎶 to anyone especially to 007
The headstock vibrato at 7:45 is mindblowing - such a seemingly simple move but so hard to incorporate into an actual song. Absurd talent.
All I can say is DAMN ! Thank You J.B. ! I'm so glad I found your style You played the gambit to perfection ! Simply amazed .
I've been to concerts of Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, U2, Steve miller and Nirvana... and then I saw Junior Brown live in Austin ... he is awesome!
Clean- intricate-soulfull-precise , there aren't enough words to describe the talent of this master , BRAVO SIR !
Dude looks as good as he plays...a real talent
If someone told me they didn't like Junior Brown, I couldn't be friends with them.
EVER.
Junior Brown is a legend and I believe in the mind of any player who’s worth a $h?t or at least a student of the craft realizes Junior is skilled at a level most more know players only dream of!!
Ditto that!
yeah they have issues
There are thousands of good guitar players out there in music land...but only a few that will make your jaws drop....salute the one & only jr brown!!!!
JB is ridiculous good. Watched him play with STONE TEMPLE PILOTS and he was just outrageously good.
When what wait what
@@danaplato9993 look up junior brown and STP on CZcams and you’ll see them play SOUR GIRL! On Jay Leno I believe
Thx for info - didn't find clip on YT, but it's on Facebook. (From '00 on Letterman; Junior w/ a beard plays excellent licks for "Sour Girl"). 🎶🎸
The Unknown Legend
This guy's musicality is off the charts.
I first heard Junior Brown over 20 years ago. Name any guitar player out there and he is better in my opinion. It seems to me though that Junior doesn’t just play the guitar very well, he IS the guitar.
A genuine, earthy, brilliant musician👍👍
Steve Bennett early is Ry Cooder another un respected guitarist
I guess I've been living under a rock... I never realized Jr. Brown had so much talent with the blues... OMG!
There's only one Junior Brown, excellent!
He needs a part in a Quentin Tarantino movie Like a guitar hitman with one cool line .
YOU ARE SO RIGHT !! 👍
So it's not just me who thinks this? Cool.
Indubitably 😃
He is already a killer.

I once opened for Junior...maybe my 'claim to fame.' don't let that cowboy hat fool you.
"don't let that cowboy hat fool you" errrm can you fill that out a little? what are you talking about
@@snoolee7950 I'd say he means Junior can play a lot more than "just Country".
@@snoolee7950 I like your name it's like a new pet name snooly yeah man I'm feeling all snooly today or like I'm here today it's me you're snooly baby
Every time he goes for the whammy it reminds me ofthat bike you had that had a bad back brakes so you had to reach back and pull the brake manually oh when you bend your foot down towards the skateboard wheel to slow down it's a little weird but it works in a pinch
2:44 How he doesn't break that first string is a miracle. Unreal playing. Incredible licks.
All I can say is Junior Brown steel string badass that covers all of it definitely gives Dick Dale a run for his money.
What about Link Wray?
I agree with all the praise. He brings so many diverse personas to life with his music and if I’m not mistaken he and his wife are a duo. He’s more impressive every time I see and hear him. An artist who makes great art with his wife is a great artist.
I remember Junior Brown playing pedal steel with Asleep at the Wheel years ago. He's such a talented guy, can play just about anything. It would be great to jam with him.
I saw Junior in a club in Melbourne, Australia, ages ago and he rocked, he's an amazing guitarist and hilarious lyricist. He was as loud as a rock band (he had two Fender Twin Reverbs blasting, he's only using one in this video) but the whole show had great volume and feel dynamics, from loud to a whisper. Kudos to his great band too.
Oh My God. The Man, The Myth, The Legend. Thank you CZcams.
Bugs the heel outta me that Junior doesn't get more recognition worldwide. I'm in the UK and people here are still of the opinion that players like Slash etc.. are the greatest..
Pharaoh Sneferu Exactly!👍
He is a true Genius and STILL remains a Highway phantom amongst the Greats. If I listed all the guitarist he out performs... people would send me hate mail till doomsday!!!😜🎸🤠
I grew up listening to Junior Brown here and there from my dad playing it when we'd be out driving around.
Never knew he could get down like this until this morning, years later.. lol wow dude's a beast!!
Check out the rest of my page, there are definitely some highlights that I have captured in my 15 years following and recording him!
I saw him last winter in a tiny venue in Western, MA. He was awesome, he and the band hung out to sign stuff after the show. If he comes around, make the effort to see him.
Saw him in Boston at a little bar.. He blew the roof off the place.. I can't wait and hope to see him again..
Beyond the pale...he's picked up the soul of the blues and is sending the message we get to hear where it came from and where it's going. Simply incredible! This the ever expanding universe of prodigy's that guide to new levels of love of sound and vibration.
And my huge balls.
...And that, folks, is what the words '"action" and "listen to the guitar" are all about.
Legend period!
Sensational guitarist! I just stumbled onto this clip by chance and I really love this sound.
Lordy... that is some dang fine tone.
I heard Junior on NPR, by accident, in 1996, never forgot. It took 5 years after that to find his cd's
hope he was on NPR by accident
He's been one of my favorites for over 25 years.
I've been a fan ever since I heard and saw the video for Highway Patrol. Rock on!!🤘🏼
Junior is a crossover...hard to please any one audience when ur that versatile.
Sounds like Albert King with a bit of Stevie thrown in!
And a whole lot of Junior!!
... add some nokie edwards and johny highland too!!
the two of them are from the same region. nobody is copying each other. they are both coming from the same place.
Dude I seriously thought the same thing!!
Yeah I feel the Stevie thing just having a note bending good time most people I know tend to gravitate towards the note bending it's mostly upbeat
You have to love junior ! The man gets right into the groove of things !
He's right up there with Tommy Emmanuel and Richard Thompson
If you were at the store standing in line between Junior Brown and Roy Orbison without their hat and glasses you could not recognize either one.
He has such interesting licks, and really knows how to hit the sweet spots - so good it's almost scary!
Holy Moly Batman! (KA-POW!!!)
Best music ever and I've heard a lot.
If I picture Junior Brown mowing the lawn, he's doing it in a suit with a cowboy hat.
...and he has a guit-steel attached to the mower's handlebars!
Saw him live in a small club on Randolph St. in Chicago (City Winery). One of the best shows I've ever seen. And I've seen a few in the last nearly 50 years!
Jamieson "Junior" Brown is an American country guitarist and singer. He has released twelve studio albums in his career, and has charted twice on the Billboard country singles charts. Brown's signature instrument is the "guit-steel" double neck guitar, a hybrid of electric guitar and lap steel guitar. Wikipedia
Born: June 12, 1952 (age 67 years), Cottonwood, AZ
Wild, crazy and wonderful!!!! Junior Brown
I now have someone to emulate, he's the best I've ever heard and I'm 69. Just a man his guitar and his amp! Wow, I'm blown away!
He's the best. One of my many mistakes in life was not seeing him live in his prime. His wife, Tanya
Rae, (standing there strumming out the rhythm next to him) must have the patience of a saint. She has the endurance of a tank to be able to keep the pace on some of those songs.
AMAZING!!
SOB this dude can play the guitar holly hell he is good 😊
The section with the 'Apache' cover was absolutely INSANE! Amazing!!
Once a teacher always a teacher, he schools us!
Right on!
Would have been Flatt awesome, to have Jr. Brown, & Stevie Ray Vaughn shredding the living hell outta a live kick azz album, DVD. Hail Thee Eternal Heavy!!
Junior is cooler than cool 😎👍
After "Semi Crazy" ('96), he was voted "Guitarist of the Year" by Guitar Magazine. He's waaaaay more than that!
Some odd years ago this guy blew my mind. Still does but he did then too.
I saw him at the Main Street Crossing n Tomball, Texas. Amazing from top to bottom.
Had the pleasure to see him in West Texas years ago one word Dammm!!!
It's been said before and I totally concur. Junior is the real deal!
Light em up! Slow burn !
All covered with Jr., what a show
Nothing better than texas blues picker
❤❤❤❤❤ , My Kind Of Groove ,
And Man You doing it Right !
Someone should try and reach of to him to tell him how much he is respected and loved
He does facebook live shows Wednesday's and Saturdays
Junior makes your favorite guitar player sweat!
JUNE-YAH!
I saw ole GIT-MAESTRO here in 2017, at Sellersville Theater, Sellersville, Pa!
I was Semi-Crazy before,
full on crazy, after!
This gentleman has alot of hidden blues,rock ,country , delta swing ....all under his Hat !! But, it took 40 years of on the road...he just breaks out with the Riffs from nowhere! Probably alot of practice and walking around different cuties....
Incredible tone and talent, always the deadliest combination
God is this baby cool!!!! That bass comes in better than any bass i ever heard on youtube. 👍😉
I've saw him twice always a outstanding show
Junior is an ICON!! top notch picker and player. I just want to note here, He mostly plays with two fingers.. First and middle fingers.. He has guge hands, so for that reason, passing whole note runs is easier for him with those two. Eric Clapton does the same thing. Those of us with "Regular" size hands, LOL, have to use forefinger and ring... Sometimes I try to use my first and middle just to feel it. I just don't have the reach... Love his playing and listen often. Too cool...
Jr Brown is an addiction
when it comes to music I trust my word
'cause drunk or sober one thing I kn ow is ...MUSIC
Don't let that cowboy hat fool you ,he is anything but the little town square !
I'm thinking you already know this but, the hat isn't intended to fool anyone - he is all country under that hat. He just never got the recognition he should have. He has more imagination than 10 bands.
oh hell ya!
A true entertainer.
This is an absolute find
Just WOW!!
He's amazing & if I ever get the chance I will definitely see him there's been too many that have passed & now it may be me no more waiting
I think JB is like The Raccoon man of guitar.....A true survivalist innovator , on his own level....Thanx Mr. Brown
Robert J
If Hank Williams had a baby with Jimi Hendrix.
What a great performer! Would love to see him.
Fantastic!
Oh man, this is exquisite!
Holy Wow Stunning !!!
Long live Albert King
This man is a master. An open heart. REjoice!!!!!!!!!1
There ain't nothing JR can't play. From get-down blues to rockin' country, this cat is ON FIRE! I would rate him as good as Michael Bloomfield--and for me to say that, have to understand, I hold Bloomfield at the top of the list of best guitarists of the century. Junior has so much talent. Just an amazing musician.
Well, this here be a pleasant unexpected surprise. Lordy mercy and pass the biscuits.
Thanks for posting
FANTASTIC!!! -I LOVE THIS CAT!
Wonderful playing junior.......
How outstanding!!!!!!!
I fell down the rabbit hole..... this is amazing !!!
