It's such a joy to see people from all generations and walks of life find joy and entertainment from Roy Clark. He was and still is a master of the guitar. And he has a wonderful sense of humor too! ❤
He's a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, and hosted a country music variety show called Hee Haw for about 20 years. If it had strings Roy Clark could play it. Check out him doing Malagueña.
I've been playing guitar for over half a century, but when i watch Roy Clark do things like this i feel like burning all my guitars in shame. Thanks for playing this one. Just subscribed.
Don't feel that way! We all have our own levels of talent. As long as you're enjoying yourself and putting music into the world, you're doing a beautiful thing and God's work!
Clark influenced and was appreciated by country icons like Paisley, Keith Urban, Charlie Daniels, and Ray Benson, but his influence went beyond Nashville-style pickers. “The reason I play guitar is because of Hee Haw and Roy Clark," says Tele shredder John 5, who currently plays with Rob Zombie.
Absolutely. Different era, different style, different skills. No tricks, just prowess. Period. Add in being an apparently natural entertainer, easily incorporating audience engagement, comedy, and real storytelling...just greatness! AND a little Jed Clampett soft shoe? C'mon! Love to see this talent surviving so many decades later. Cheers rl 🤘👹🤘
Roy Clark played almost anything with strings. Made people laugh. I don't personally know a single guitarist that hasn't heard of him. He was an absolute icon of musicianship.
The late great Roy Clark. He was untouchable on the guitar and very good on the banjo, mandolin, fiddle, and anything else with strings Try his original "Thank God and Greyhound"
He was no Chet. But on the other hand, Chet was no Roy. Both were great and people can legitimately argue that either was the best. But no one can say they weren’t great.
This was when country music had real musicians like Roy, Glen Campbell, Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins and Merle Haggard. Roy was also a great singer and had big country hits and a couple of crossover hits with ‘Come Live With Me’ and ‘Yesterday, When I was Young.’ And, of course, he was the co-host of ‘Hee-Haw.’
Roy Clark was a huge part of my childhood. He's one of the reasons I adore music so much. Sadly, I can't play, but I thoroughly enjoy listening to a master on a stringed instrument. Roy made an appearance on the Odd Couple and played The Malagueña. Check that out to see even fancier fret work! Roy was a legend in his own time and beyond!
First time I came across your channel today! I love your reactions! You are one of the few I have seen that really catches a lot of the little things that Roy Clark throws in to make it even more fun!!!! If you want to see him smoke a Guitar check out his version of Malaguenia!!! I don't know how many times I have watched it and it still makes my jaw drop every time I see it! Great reaction show!
I love Roy Clark!!! That said, don’t you know the elites in this country would think to themselves “ I bet he could can more tuna fish than any of the goobers in my factory?”.
There is a TH-cam video where he is on Jimmy Dean show playing a trio medley of Guitar, Banjo and Fiddle. You should check it out as it is mind blowing.
This dude actually started out doing RAP. He was a member of the Bloods, his lyrics were hardcore and parents did not want their children to buy his albums. So, reluctantly he started doing Country Music. His endeavor into Country Western never really went anywhere. So, he loaded up his truck and moved Beverly Hills. This is when he entered the UFC, as a Heavy Weight. He lost his first three fights, this is when he joined Weight Watchers, where he eventually became anorexic.
Master of all stringed instruments, sang and had comedic timing too.

I think I'm pretty good I'll give him a run for his money. sincerely Ron Clark.
I agree. He was a master at all stringed instruments and different genres of music. A true Renaissance man.
King of Strings !! He could play anything
Listening to Roy Clark is only half of the total package. I love watching his expressions. He was such a well-rounded entertainer.

Roy Clark IS the GOAT!!!
The greatest guitar player ever.

If you can find a video of Roy Clark v Glen Campbell, you would be able to see 2 of the top guitar players of their time having a bit of fun
Roy Clark is a guitar master if you're going down the
rabbit hole you should check out his duling banjo skit on heehaw
This man can shred.

Roy was his own genre ❤

One of the greatest comments about Roy Clark. "I can't even keep up with the fingers!"
That was before he sped it up…
Roy Clark is a Legend on anything with strings!!♥️♥️♥️
Roy Clark could play the minute waltz in 30 seconds
This is the kind of skilled musicians we need to bring back.
When you think Roy has hit peak speed, he kicks it into another gear and takes off to another level.
Roy was also a wonderful comedian.
that guy had some big hands! big love to all people :)
RC could play like no other.
I love Roy Clark!!! That said, don’t you know the elites in this country would think to themselves “ I bet he could can more tuna fish than any of the goobers in my factory?”.
One of the great and talented entertainers!
Your joy watching this was enjoyable.
Roy Clark: the GOAT!
Pure talent.
Check out his performance on the Odd Couple show! Acoustic
Always a nut!! I miss him. 😜🧓💖💋
He was a great picker and a showman.
And a sense of humor!
So much fun,don't it make you feel good
Roy Clark could play anything with strings. Could probably tune up your sneakers and play 'em.
You need to hear Roy Clark allegania live it is awesome
There is a TH-cam video where he is on Jimmy Dean show playing a trio medley of Guitar, Banjo and Fiddle. You should check it out as it is mind blowing.
This old man thinks its awesome to see to watch people reacting to Roy Clark for the first time!
Guitar Players: Number 1 Roy Clark.. Number 2 Prince. End of list.
A reporter asked Eddie VanHalen how it felt to be the undisputed best guitarist in the world and Eddie replied “Ask Roy Clark”.
React to Merle Travis- Cannonball Rag. Very good Country instrumental.
When there was real talent
❤
He and Chet Atkins were the best bar none!
There may be some as good but there are none better…

And that's just a small sample of the shit Roy Clark mastered
