2005 - Jerry Reed Being Inducted In The Songwriters Hall of Fame


Jerry Reed Hubbard was born March 20, 1937 and passed away September 1, 2008.


I remember him from the movie "Smokey and The Bandit" and his guitar picking with Chet Atkins. He was a great guitar player and song writer. He made you smile when he performed because he always seemed like he was having such a fun time. His songs told some interesting stories. I'm kinda partial to his song "Amos Moses". You could sense his great sense of humor any time you saw him perform - on stage or in the movies. His sense of humor and talent will be missed.
