I can't think about Jerry Reed without picturing that damn episode of Scooby-doo he was on

Don't forget singing and song writing.

He wrote Guitar Man which Elvis Presley recorded.
His own songs, such as Amos Moses, and When You're Hot, You're Hot.

What an amazing guitar player...one of the best I ever saw. My fav Jerry Reed movie role was in The Survivor with Robin Williams & Walter Matthau. Reed play a hitman looking to Robin Williams and was hilarious.
