Remembering Joe Chambers❤️ This was the last MHOF Award Show Joe was physically at, and we are so glad he decided to play guitar. Watch the full clip on our YouTube.
“Hi, this is Joe Chambers. Welcome to Musicians Hall of Fame Backstage: The Vault Series. Today’s clip comes from our 2019 awards show and concert.
We inducted the original Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section from FAME Studios, not to be confused with The Swampers from Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, who we inducted a few years back.
These guys also wanted to have a few extra players who performed on many sessions with them included in their induction: Peanut Montgomery on rhythm guitar, also a great songwriter for George Jones; the late, great guitarist Reggie Young; and one of my personal favorites—songwriter, producer, singer Joe South.
When I saw that Joe was included, it gave us the opportunity to open the show with one of his classic hits, “Hush.”
He had a hit with it, Billy Joe Royal had a hit with it, and one of my favorites, Deep Purple, had a smash with it.
I couldn’t resist asking Paul Shaffer, who was emcee, if he would mind playing the iconic organ solo like nobody else could but him—and he agreed to.
We also got Grammy-winning Mike Farris to come in and sing the song.
I invited myself to play guitar because it’s my party and I’ll play if I want to.
I had fun. I hope you enjoy it too.
Once again, “Hush,” featuring the great Paul Shaffer and Mike Farris.”

It was a blessing to accompany the heavenly angel that was Dolly Parton.

Huge thanks to @berniewilliamsofficial for demonstrating the meaning of friendship when I asked him to auction off a celebrity jam session with the two of us in support of my daughter’s rescue in Pasadena, @pupculturerescue. John Zogratos won it for his talented friend Dean, Steve Walter donated the @cuttingroomnyc, and Bernie dropped major knowledge on the two of us during a once in a lifetime session. More opportunities like this available on http://charitybuzz.com. Pup Culture rules.
