Jerry Reed, best known for comedic songs such as "When You're Hot, You're Hot" and "She Got the Goldmine (I Got the Shaft)," as well as his role as "Snowman" in the Smokey and the Bandit movies, died yesterday at age 71. According to Nashville's Tennessean, Jerry suffered from emphysema and was in hospice care. He was an accomplished guitarist who played for Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Porter Wagoner, among others. He also wrote songs for such artists as Elvis Presley, Waylon Jennings and Bobby Bare. When interviewer Frank Goodman asked which part of his multi-faceted career he liked the best, Jerry replied, "That's like trying to pick your favorite leg." Still, with all his accomplishments, many people only knew him through his work in the movies. He once told us, "There's people that come to my concerts today because of Smokey and the Banditand they had no idea I made records." Jerry will perhaps be best remembered for his light-hearted approach to life. "You get serious about yourself -- you're not going to be here very long in the first place, so shut up, lay back and enjoy your time here. And for God's sake, laugh." *He was also in the movie "Water Boy".
