Saw it when it initially came out

Now all we need is for 'Convoy' & 'Hooper' to be repeated

Go straight to the source :wink:
Jerry Reeds site

Go to 'The Tunes', & it's; 'East Bound & Down'

Reed also wrote
'Guitar Man' as covered by a certain EA Presley
'A Thing Called Love'  covered by Johnny Cash (who recorded at Sam Philips 'Sun Records' at the same time as Presley)

By The Way;
Did anyone notice Ben Jones at the begining??
He played Cooter in the (TV series) 'The Dukes Of Hazzard'
He's stood in front of a Freightliner(?) in a light coloured shirt & th Burdettes ask him where they can find Bandit

And here he is, complete with 70's moustache :lol:  :lol:
