There were guitar strings shredded and frets worn down during the filming of this episode. I cannot think of many real guitarists who would not be impressed by these two men. Both of them at their best here but Roy Clark stayed at the top of his craft for many more decades and Marty Stuart is still at the top of his. RIP Roy Clark, he left us with so much video taped evidence of his craft and we can still enjoy it, Marty Stuart is still giving us joy and his legacy will be his body of work.
I saw Marty and his Fabulous Superlatives a few days ago. Acoustic guitars, 1 snare drum and his mandolin. He and Kenny had a grand ole time picking away He still has it
Both of these are classy guys. I sort of grew up with Marty on the bluegrass circuit when he was with Flatt. I wasn’t much acquainted with Roy Clark but I met him when we did a show together in Nashville. Of course he was a big star and I wasn’t but I’ll never forget what he told me: “It will never be any better for you than it is right now.” And he was right. What he was saying is that everything has a downside, even success. The more successful I got the more headaches I had and my life certainly didn’t get any better. I came to miss the days when I wasn’t so successful but was a lot more content. So, there’s a trite lesson yet a profound one.
This is an awesome performance. Studio cut can be found on Marty’s 1982 album Busy bee cafe. As a kid Hee-haw was my free weekly guitar lesson. Can’t beat old Roy and Buck and Don rich! Great memories!
You are a Lucky 🐕 if you have Busy Bee Cafe! My late father used to play the song Busy Bee Cafe over and over! First time I heard it I was blown away. Marty's voice was exciting and chilling all at the same time! On guitar, mandolin and fiddle he can hold his own with anyone out there.
Just saw him last night with the Superlatives... no one better or more humble, his voice has gotten better with age also, forgot to mention he's the best mando player out there.
I find it so strange that some of the best pickers who ever played a stringed instrument, made their living as TV personalities. Like these two, Jerry Reed, and Glen Campbell, who was face-melting player. It took 4-5 decades for us to realize the talent.
Yep your so righ mate. Roy Clark, Glen Campbell just brilliant. For some reason? I never used to think much off Marty Stuart, How wrong have I been all these years, he can really pick & play
Or...just fantastic Musicians / Writers. The great Buck Owens was way, way deeper than that "Hee-Haw" "schtick" which paid a portion of his bills to survive as a writer.
I remember when Smoky and the Bandit came out, my Papaw told me Jerry Reed was a guitar picker then I remembered seeing him on Pop Goes the Country - I knew he looked familiar
I'm not a country music fan but I certainly have to marvel at pickers like Roy Clark and Marty Stuart, along with others. They play at 100 miles per hour but look comfortable and sound good while doing it.
Play music because you love it and its coming from you and your feeling. I know watching great musicians tends to hurt a little never let that bother you. You have a contribution to make whether it's for yourself and if you enjoy playing for others as well. ✌️
I've been looking for this video for years and it's definitely worth the wait. Song title is incorrect, however. I believe the correct name of the tune that Marty and Roy are playing is called: "There's Nothing To It."
I think it’s the same song, and I know it as “Nothing To It” but I don’t think that’s the real name. I heard a story where Doc played it in a studio and when he was done, someone asked him what the song was called. He misunderstood and thought they were saying how good it was, and that’s how the name came of his version came about.
Have faith....and remember these folks playing instruments are for us to enjoy. Despite their success they want us to pass this stuff on! Please keep playing guitar! It’s a worthy legacy to hand down.
@@fortunatoofamontillado1059 Next time you're in a jewelry store, ask to see a size 16 sizing ring (It's still a little snug.) Do that and get back to me.
Legend goes-- that Back in the 50’s Roy was -such a hot amazing picker that Hank Thompson’ hired him to play with his Western Swing Band. But Roy was young/a bit reckless-and showed up late for practice few times and Thompson fired him.
@@grassshadow1 The tune I'm referring to is an old Tin Pan Alley song written in 1915. It is also known as I'm So Sad and Lonely. I guess they're are many songs out their with the same exact title. The version I'm referring to has lyrics and was copyrighted.
WHITE CULTURE is a reason to be PROUD.... White PEOPLE are ARTISTS, BUILDERS, COMPOSERS, FARMERS, CRAFTSMEN, and some of the BEST MUSICIANS ever!!! I HATE No ONE...... But White Culture is BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Rats! I made a mistake--I left my guitar in the room when I watched this video and now,every time I pick it up,it just sighs at me like an unfulfilled woman. My plinkity plink plink ain't cuttin' it no mo'
It's actually pretty toned down from the Nudie suits of the 60's. Porter Waggoner, Buck Owens, The Flying Burrito Brothers-those album covers looked like an alphabet parade.
Doug H in Roy's defense he once told me You have people out there that look at musicians as an image Without realizing the true musicianship one possesses Why don't you try closing your eyes and make your comment again. You are a true example of freedom of speech keyboard warrior with a crooked finger.
Marty is one of my all-time favorites 👍 And so is his wife Connie. Thank you all so much 💘
If you play guitar, watching this will make you burn it and just go bowling.
Bowling hurts I'll stick with guitar.

Where can one find some of the best guitar pick'n ever performed on national television? Hee-Haw.
Yeah. Clark and Stuart are top of the line for sure.
Man what hair Marty has! He's still got it too!
Just saw him last night with the Superlatives... no one better or more humble, his voice has gotten better with age also, forgot to mention he's the best mando player out there.
I always wondered if these two aces played together and at last I found this gem on you tube . Superb and thanks for posting .RIP Roy Clark .
Priceless. Two national treasures. With a little practice these guys could be pretty good. Damn.
Love Marty's fur!!!!!!!!!!!!
Both are brilliant musicians
Has no one mentioned when Marty makes Roy laugh by telling him he “sounds like Roy Clark” @ 0:45 mark.

How wrong have I been all these years, he can really pick & play
@@11calman for sure. Marty Stuart is a great example. Killer musician. Made his pay as a host.
Times never had social media
Or...just fantastic Musicians / Writers. The great Buck Owens was way, way deeper than that "Hee-Haw" "schtick" which paid a portion of his bills to survive as a writer.

It is AMAZING how unbelievably talented two men can be! And look at Marty…He was just a Baby!
With a BEARD?? Glad THAT didn't last long.. LOL
My favorite part of "Hee Haw" was "Pickin' & Grinnin'," especially the way they'd play several variations of an ending before stopping.
I'm not a country music fan but I certainly have to marvel at pickers like Roy Clark
and Marty Stuart, along with others. They play at 100 miles per hour but look
comfortable and sound good while doing it.
Dear God did that just happen??? Lightening!!!
I knew they were good, but I didn't know they were this good.
Before Marty was handed the true crown for Country Music "leader of the band" so to speak ...
Love the fur, Marty!!!!!
that beard! FIRE right there ---WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW. I have NEVER seen Mr. Clark JAM like that!! Ole Marty pushed him to an entire different PLANE!
You must not listen to any Roy Clark.....!
Trust me they sounded fantastic, but Roy was just idling on this video....!
The only thing more fun than Marty Stuart and Roy Clark would be if Jerry Reed joined them!
Son! Totally Agree!
How about adding Glen Campbell, Doc Watson & Tony Rice?!!
@@yvesami acoustic guitars would burn from all that hot picking!
Whats the point in continuing myself ? My GOD, WHAT TALENT !!! How they compliment each other !
yes...give up
Write a song!
So tight!

Marty looks different with that beard 2019 Nov 20. Love Roy Clark thanks
Two of the best just needed Mr Guitar Chet Atkins to make it over the top.
Two of the best.
Amazing!!!
#martystuart the real guitar hero!
Badass.
Didn't know Marty had a beard in him!! Love it!
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOLL

That's what I thought when I heard it. Remember Scruggs, Flatt and Doc Watson doing it.
I think it’s the same song, and I know it as “Nothing To It” but I don’t think that’s the real name. I heard a story where Doc played it in a studio and when he was done, someone asked him what the song was called. He misunderstood and thought they were saying how good it was, and that’s how the name came of his version came about.
When was this recorded?
If you can find Roy Clark played with an orchestra it was amazing
I hate watching videos like this. There's no point in even picking up my guitar afterwards.
The point is practise till you are that good.
@@edithdavis2848 - I have very large, old, hands. Ain't gonna happen.

Should inspire you to learn the instrument
@@fortunatoofamontillado1059 Next time you're in a jewelry store, ask to see a size 16 sizing ring (It's still a little snug.) Do that and get back to me.
Great talent
Rip Roy Clark 🌷
I got blisters on my fingers!
super cool
Who thought that two guys in overalls could be this cool?
Legend goes-- that Back in the 50’s Roy was -such a hot amazing picker that Hank Thompson’ hired him to play with his Western Swing Band. But Roy was young/a bit reckless-and showed up late for practice few times and Thompson fired him.
I don’t know about Hank Thompson,but Jimmy Dean fired him for always being late….
Roy shines, and Marty too
Watch out Billy Strings, here comes Marty
Too late well still watch out cause Marty is still around! So is Pat Flynn!
Real deal 😃
I think it’s funny Marty Stuart has that fancy Martin and Roy Clark’s playing an Alvarez.
I Don't Love Nobody . . . I just wish my guitar had T & A.
The tune sounds like Doc Watson's "Nothin To It."
Cool 👏🏻🌟🌟❤️‼️
My favorite guitar picking song. I'm so glad you put this one on TH-cam. I am not complaining but do you have this video in a higer resolution?
RIP sweet Roy Clark
Dad gum!!!!!
Any other version of that song? Can't find it.
strings1955 ear Scruggs plays it with the byrds in his documentary. Also doc Watson does it under another name that escapes my memory.
Marty had this cut on his 1982 album Busy bee cafe. A great bluegrass album by the way.
@@grassshadow1 Correct title is "Nothing to it." It's on one of Doc's older LP'S. He does a duet with his late son Merle.
@@markstephens2234 ,also known as "I Don't Love Nobody "...or something like that.

Billy Strings and Molly Tuttle ought to do a remake !!!
unmatched talent from a bygone era; wow; makes this 64 year old picker wanna practice
Wow
Damn.
Marty Stuart ???????
The real deal
Thumbs down came from those living in New York City.
And by this time, Marty had only been performing professionally for around 36 years...
WHITE CULTURE is a reason to be PROUD.... White PEOPLE are ARTISTS, BUILDERS, COMPOSERS, FARMERS, CRAFTSMEN, and some of the BEST MUSICIANS ever!!!
I HATE No ONE......
But White Culture is BEAUTIFUL!!!!
No scarf
I would have loved to seen Kenny along with them
I think roy got all the nookie on hee haw
Rats! I made a mistake--I left my guitar in the room when I watched this video and now,every time I pick it up,it just sighs at me like an unfulfilled woman. My plinkity plink plink ain't cuttin' it no mo'
mighty fine chicken picken
Marty should grow his beard out like that again !
And then Marty was crowned King of the Potted Plants.
Is that John Lovell, warrior poet?
Marty stewart and roy clark.
Rascals.
It’s nice to see that Marty didn’t always dress like a flamboyant gay man.
So wrong but so funny....lol.
It's actually pretty toned down from the Nudie suits of the 60's. Porter Waggoner, Buck Owens, The Flying Burrito Brothers-those album covers looked like an alphabet parade.
You mean like Johnny Cash used to dress?
@@mattd2426,
No, more like Liberace.
Clark was always mugging and showing off and it detracted from his ability. He tried too hard.
roy "mugged" out of nervous energy
Doug H in Roy's defense he once told me You have people out there that look at musicians as an image

Why don't you try closing your eyes and make your comment again. You are a true example of freedom of speech keyboard warrior with a crooked finger.
@@keithclark486 I love Marty Stewart and Connie Smith.
@@keithclark486 If I close my eyes, I hear one guy ripping off clean, fluid lines, and one guy overplaying and fighting the guitar.

Then your saying you are a fan of Roy
Good ear mate 👍
