Oh my goodness, Fil! You can feature Glen Campbell as often as you want! This is great-both were playing at the highest level. Thanks for this fun analysis!
It’s actually not that complex a tune, it was one of the first I learned as a kid, BUT to play it like Carl and Glen IS incredibly complex and difficult!
As for the comment that you missed a note and should have practiced more, the obviously unrehearsed nature of your analysis is part of what makes me appreciate your skill. Without practice or previous review, you can hear everything that's going on in a song, then turn around and nearly duplicate the keys, cords, progressions, notes, etc. That takes a mastery of music and of your instrument. Respect your talent my friend.
How can you not smile after that performance. What a song! Oh, and "Git-tar" is more of a Southern U.S. thing. Most people here in the U.S. say it the same as you, Fil. lol
It’s so nice to see such a humble and unassuming country boy like Glen Campbell in the beginning of the video….and then he lets loose with his awesome guitar playing. Talent is a wonderful thing! 😁
That was great! Thank you so much for showcasing these great legends. Glen Campbell was one of the most talented entertainers & guitarists in the world. Carl Jackson was in Campbell's band for 12 years & he produced Glen Campbell’s final studio album.
Glen Campbell was always someone I was aware of through my dad but I didn’t appreciate until recently how naturally musically talented he is. He makes everything look so easy. A true artist and one of a kind.
I think it's really cool when you analyze bluegrass. I love seeing your take on it, and how much you appreciate the talent involved. I grew up around it, of course, having a lot of bluegrass musicians in the family. This performance made me feel right at home 😊.
Glen Campbell was on another level that very, very few musicians ever reached! Thanks Fil! You could feature Glen every other day and I'd still not get enough of his immense talent!
Yes, Glen was an impeccable musician in addition to being a singer. Before he was a star, he was a member of the Wrecking Crew--session musicians playing on many recordings for other artists in the 60s. He even toured with the Beach Boys. Thanks, Fil, for another good one.
@@helena51troy Those songs you mention are, actually, written, by, the great: Jimmy Webb. [That's not taking ANYTHING away from Glen's genius! Glen did write songs across his lifetime ("Bull Durham", "Spanish Shades", "Fate Of Man" - among others), but (as was the common practice (prior to 🤷🤷 circa-1965(-ish) ...and even then....), the majority of his songs were: written by other song-writers (professional song-writers. "Brill Building" types) ...which, effectively, "went out of style" (and developed a "lesser respect" for itself) after: Bob Dylan and The Beatles (and a large number of their, soon-to-be, compatriots) became known and lauded for: writing and arranging their own material!).
Thanks for explaining/doing that rhythm thing Glen was doing. I kinda missed it. (Though I have heard this song a million times.) The whole thing is amazing. I love how they looked at each other with mutual respect. Two masters at work! So glad it was captured on video.
Out standing ! I never get tired of seeing Glen Campbell videos on your show. Your analysis of old school country music greats are always "spot on" as you say. Great job Fil. Rock on
I heard Glen's songs when I was a teenager, but I never realized what an expert guitarist he was. Thank you so much---and you can show us videos of his expertise any time you find one!
I think that we all enjoyed this one as much as you obviously did. Two great musicians, being allowed to do their thing, without the interference of someone who thinks that they can make it sound "better". I mean...can it even get better than this? ❤️🇨🇦
Apologize for putting up another Glen Campbell video? Out of the question. Tommy Tedesco was one of the best guitarists and was on the Wrecking Crew, and Glen was playing with him. Glen played on almost every album we thought were done by different bands in the 1960s...record company executives only wanted the best. Glen was on the soundtrack of my youth. Eddie Van Halen asked Alice Cooper (Glen's golfing buddy) if he could ask Glen for a guitar lesson.
So much fun, thank you! Another fantastic banjo tune popularized by a movie is Foggy Mountain Breakdown, by Earl Scruggs, featured in the film "Bonnie & Clyde". Someone commented: "in the state of Kentucky if this song comes on the radio while you are in a motor vehicle you are legally obligated to get into a car chase..." 🤣😂🤣
More interesting performance for analysis checking out sound interplay between banjo and guitar, instead of two banjos. As expected, increased tempo of Jackson's banjo playin' was matched by Cambell's guitar.
Glen could do this in his sleep! This is one of the few times that I can actually smile continuously while watching an instrumental performance. Glen just smiles and has fun with it, while Carl shows him that he can meet him at that level! Great analysis video, well done!
That was such a great performance by both Glen and Carl. So much talent and technique. I enjoyed this analysis including your breakdown on the guitar. 😊🎸🎵
More than a half century later and Carl Jackson is keeping Glen Campbell's legacy alive. He occasionally performs with Glen's beautiful daughter Ashley, who has become a quite good musician in her own right. Fun fact: Carl is Ashley's godfather.🙂
This was a great performance here by Glen Campbell, Carl Jackson and you Fil. you can tell that Glen and Carl were having fun here two skilled musicians at their craft entertaining the audience in the studio and at home.
Another thing about Glen Campbell's playing is that his guitar is a full bowl Ovation, which brings where you pick and fret much further away from you than a regular guitar or a shallow bowl Ovation. That makes it somewhat more challenging to play, especially if you are playing fast. I have a 12 string Ovation with the full bowl and a 6 string Ovation with the shallow bowl, and they are two very different beasts to play, totally ignoring the difference in strings.
In the intro I think the banjo is playing the melody as single notes but adding the top G string over the top to fatten it up. Standard banjo tuning is an open G. Fil I think you would love playing banjo it is addictive
Your smile of amazement every time you Analyze guitarists like glen or roy clark says it all.. Because he was a great singer, A lot of people don't know how great he was on guitar.. I'm sure by now you've probably seen the movie deliverance that this song comes from.. But if not you should.. A lot of t v shows and movies make reference to it to this day..🤗👍
FIL , what a fun analysis! Dueling Banjos is so fun ! Carl is just great with Glenn ! I enjoyed seeing Rocker Fil go a bit country today 😅 ! It looked like you were enjoying this one also ! Very nice analysis, great talent !
Who doesn't love Glen! "The Dillards" did Duelin' Banjo with a Mandolin and Banjo. Really good too. They made appearances on The Andy Griffith Show in 1960s as the Darlings.
When you are so good you can add your own flare to an already incredible piece of music, you have achieved a level such as Glen Campbell. I had the pleasure of seeing Glen on his last tour when Alzheimer's disease was taking him. He never once had to figure out how to play what song they were playing and he was still INCREDIBLE on the guitar. There were many monitors lining the stage feeding him words to the songs, but that playing...brings tears to my eyes thinking of his talent and loss. So grateful you featured him, Fil!
Great analysis and demo as usual Fil. Glen got Carl to teach his daughter Ashley to play guitar and banjo. Could you do an analysis of Carl sometime? He is a fantastic musician on guitar and banjo and he does a wonderful version of Gentle On My Mind. Carl was a musician who could hold his own with Glen
A friend of mine ran spot light when Glen Campbell came to town on his last tour. He asked him if he could still play as well as he used to. When the concert was over, the band members were asking each other where all that unexpected virtuosity had come from! Apparently, Glen could still play that well, especially when challenged, even though my friend didn’t doubt Glen’s abilities for a second. Thanks for featuring him again, Fil!
Glen Campbell so talented and a fan of his for many years. Great playing of the Deliverance battle of banjos and Glen with guitar. Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you Fil. 👍
Great book for those interested: The Wrecking Crew: The Inside Story of Rock-and-Roll's Best Kept Secret by Kent Hartman. Goes into detail about Glen Campbell's upbringing and early career. Well-researched, well-written, and all-encompassing.
Great performance, and very light-hearted, I can see why Fil is smiling through the whole thing, as I was as well, in spite of the mental association of this song with "Deliverance". Glen Campbell and Carl Jackson are both very talented players.
Great analysis! The other amazing thing is just how well coordinated they are, as this was probably just one of many songs on the show - and I doubt they had much chance to rehearse given Glenn's was a weekly show.
So good! I'm an old chick who likes classic rock, although I can appreciate other genres...I don't know why, but I've always been fascinated by the banjo ❤
Another perfect analysis Fil. What always impresses me when I see this video of Glen and Carl is the amount of notes played as the time moves from one second to the next. Unnatural picking from them.
I saw Glen Campbell in a concert he did not long before he passed away. He was not only a great artist but a great showman and very fan oriented. Making sure his fans appreciated his shows was very important to him and he was so friendly when he was talking to his fans after the show
And his already-great vocals improved with age. If it was his PBS special you are referring to-it was an amazing concert. Not available online anywhere that I can find. My sister has the DVD. He was a stunning performer.😊
@@kjmav10135 No, I wasn't referring to his PBS special. I saw him live in person.... Live --- as in after the concert I met him, got his autograph, we spoke to each other and I shook his hand. Same with Roy Clark at another concert.
I almost picked up the banjo out of interest but felt it would take up time, like starting all over again, but your right it sounds awesome. Surprised it hasn't been crossed over. Great analysist of what was going on, the gallop demonstration sounded great.
I was so confused when Glen said he was playing this song since he was knee high to a grasshopper. I never knew it existed before Deliverance. As I said before, Fil, your videos have given me an appreciation of Glen Campbell that I never had before. I remember being forced to watch Hee Haw as a kid by my parents and just absolutely hating the cornball "humor" so much that I tuned out the music completely.
your delight in this is infectious! I sort of "grew up" with this in the background of life, but never would have considered playing it - music wasn't really something my family did, we "listened". Last summer I began adding guitar - didn't get far (various reasons) but today I changed a broken guitar string and stated over. Anyhow I appreciate the points you are making , even though I'm too much of a beginner to utilize them, nevertheless they are interesting to consider
FIL! I can’t even explain how excited I was to see that you were reviewing this performance! The original video has 64k views, and I’d venture a guess that 60k of those are from me!! 😂 I love these two talented guys! Thank you! I enjoyed your commentary so much!
Fil, I had Glen Campbell and Carl Jackson on an album in the early seventies, sadly lost now, I played it to death. Thanks for posting their breathtaking playing. And by the way, you’re a hell of a player yourself.
Don't have any idea to make a recommendation to you Fil, nor how to link you to a video, but please if you will take a look at Carolina Chocolate Drops with Rhiannon Giddens, suggest Hit 'Em Up Style. Rhiannon has gone solo. Owensboro Kentucky hosts The ROMP and this is where I discovered CCD several years ago. Was hooked from song one.
Dueling Banjos re popularized in the movie Deliverance. Anyone that liked this that hasn't seen the movie needs to watch it. Then you can have nightmares from the famous final scene like the rest of us😂
Thanks for this. Carl Jackson has played banjo from a very early age. By age 14 he was playing on the road with relatively prominent bluegrass team of Jim and Jesse. He is also a world class guitarist. Mandolin too.
Hi Fil, Wow! What an amazing performance. The best of the best here. And your great guitar technique demonstration. This was a good example of two top level musicians. Great job on this analysis. Very fun song to listen to and watch being played! Debbie ☮️
The guitar part isn't that hard. I say that because I can play it and I'm a complete novice.. But Glen puts so much character into his playing, he takes these chords into a different league. Its a comedy routine without words. Just looks and sounds . His guitar playing has so much of his character woven into it..
Banjo (Scruggs) picking is a whole different deal than guitar finger-picking. It's meant to take advantage of the dissonance of the 5th string, which is a constant note regardless of the chord being played on the other strings. I learned banjo first, and it took me quite a while to shift gears to alternate-bass guitar picking.
I just saw a video in recent days in which some famous rock guitarist, one of the ones that is often touted as one of the best rock guitarists of all time, said that Glen Campbell was the best. I simply don’t remember who that was.
Fil you brought up the person that complained about your playing during a video. You know that it wouldn't matter if you did some kind of evil spell so you could channel the playing ability of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Glen Cambell, and Les Paul there's always someone out there that would complain that there wasnt any Jeff Beck. So you do you, and the one's that like it will be here.
WOO You didn't say "Let's see how Glenn gets on" what's up 🤣. The guy on the banjo was no slouch either. You should check out Jaimee Harris especially the song How Could You Be Gone. What a powerful song.
Fil, buddy, this is awesome stuff. You always cover good stuff, and a wide range. There is a song I would love to see you examine if you ever get the chance. Jerry Reed playing The Claw. Absolutely one of my favorites of all time.
For a fresh take on the banjo, check out Danny Barnes ( lots of solo stuff, but famously with the group “ The Bad Livers “ ). An absolutely awesome player ! Check out the tune “ Death Trip “.
You know the playing is top notch when you see such a happy grin on Fil’s face while he is watching the video of discussion.
The grin was evident even before any music 😀 matched Glenn's grin
Love his smile!
Yep! His smile always gives it away. I kept waiting for him to start moving his whole body on this one!
I was just going to comment on the same thing! Lol.
I was thinking the same thing! lol, if his smile got any bigger, the top of his head would fall off!
Glen was self taught starting out as a young toddler....amazing talent...RIP MR CAMPBELL
And he could not read written music… amazing!
Oh my goodness, Fil! You can feature Glen Campbell as often as you want! This is great-both were playing at the highest level. Thanks for this fun analysis!
Agreed. Glen is really good to show on these breakdowns because he was such a great session player before his solo career.
I totally agree, he can feature Glen Campbell every week and I'll be happy!
How great! They’re so laid back while playing an incredibly complex tune. You can feature Glen anytime!! Glad you enjoyed it too. Thanks Fil!
It’s actually not that complex a tune, it was one of the first I learned as a kid, BUT to play it like Carl and Glen IS incredibly complex and difficult!
There is never any reason to apologize for featuring Glen Campbell.
As for the comment that you missed a note and should have practiced more, the obviously unrehearsed nature of your analysis is part of what makes me appreciate your skill. Without practice or previous review, you can hear everything that's going on in a song, then turn around and nearly duplicate the keys, cords, progressions, notes, etc. That takes a mastery of music and of your instrument.

Campbell was so talented. He wrote some beautiful lyrics as in Witchita Lineman and Galveston.

Doesnt this song make ya want to jump up and dance and spin around and clap your hands and smile?
Great and entertaining analysis of two highly capable instrumentalists. I should include you there also. Thank you for this.
You probably know the song but "Classical Gas" by Mason Williams is another classic from this era and worthy of your time for a reaction
It was a GREAT song, yes! We'd hear it EVERYWHERE back then. 🙂
Oddly enough, that song popped into my head just a couple of days ago. Hadn’t heard it in forever.
The most interesting thing about Classical Gas is that Mason Williams played ALL of the instruments, then added them all together.
I think that we all enjoyed this one as much as you obviously did. Two great musicians, being allowed to do their thing, without the interference of someone who thinks that they can make it sound "better". I mean...can it even get better than this? ❤️🇨🇦

Congrats on 342k, 345k is just around the corner 🎉
Loved this ❤

so fun to see this, so much mutual respect on that stage
Fil, you have made my day - and brought a big smile to my face! Thank you for this analysis! Great job pickin' your GIT-tar, too!

I have a feeling that his love of music was one of the last things he let go of. It was just such a part of him.
Both amazing artists!!!! Just a pure joy to hear and watch!
Glen always looks like he is sincerely enjoying what he’s doing. He never looks like it’s just a “ job “. Love watching him perform!
Simply awesome and fun😊...Thank you FIL...
I love me some banjo and acoustic dueling! As my old granny was from Kentucky, the grass hopper reference was correct. It's a Southern thang.
I am not a big fan of Bluegrass but when you get two greats performing a piece of music you sit up and enjoy the awesome.
Ah so that's why classical guitarists don't wear leather .....always wonderd.
He was part of the wrecking crew before he was famous so obviously he's talented to a high degree
Glen Campbell so talented and a fan of his for many years. Great playing of the Deliverance battle of banjos and Glen with guitar. Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you Fil. 👍

Fil in the words of the great man himself
To miss a note is insignificant
To play without passion is inexcusable
Ludwig Van Beethoven!
The banjo technique is called "clawing" when you use multiple fingers picking different strings.
Ted Nugent recently said Glen was the best guitarist of all time
Ted Nugent is a dirt bag and his opinion is irrelevant.
@11:17 We see Fil with his pirate gaze.
Ha ha--just rewound to that moment. Ahoy, matey!
Two great musicians fantastic playing. thanks for sharing the experience 👍

I learned banjo first, and it took me quite a while to shift gears to alternate-bass guitar picking.
I loved Glen Campbell's singing even before I realized how good he was on guitar. Loved his "Wichita Lineman" and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix".
I just saw a video in recent days in which some famous rock guitarist, one of the ones that is often touted as one of the best rock guitarists of all time, said that Glen Campbell was the best. I simply don’t remember who that was.
Fil you brought up the person that complained about your playing during a video. You know that it wouldn't matter if you did some kind of evil spell so you could channel the playing ability of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Glen Cambell, and Les Paul there's always someone out there that would complain that there wasnt any Jeff Beck. So you do you, and the one's that like it will be here.
WOO You didn't say "Let's see how Glenn gets on" what's up 🤣. The guy on the banjo was no slouch either. You should check out Jaimee Harris especially the song How Could You Be Gone. What a powerful song.
Thanks Prof Fil.! Like when you pick up an acoustic.!
All this attention on Glen Campbell is apropos!
Oh hell yeah! More Glenn Campbell is never a bad thing in my book!! Quite possibly the most underrated musician ever!!!
GLEN WAS COMPLETELYYYYYYYYY INSANE, AND JUST SO DAMNNNNNNNNNNNN GOOD FIL! 💯😊 YEAH MAN, DAMNNN!😮
Fil, buddy, this is awesome stuff. You always cover good stuff, and a wide range.
There is a song I would love to see you examine if you ever get the chance. Jerry Reed playing The Claw.
Absolutely one of my favorites of all time.
For a fresh take on the banjo, check out Danny Barnes ( lots of solo stuff, but famously with the group “ The Bad Livers “ ). An absolutely awesome player ! Check out the tune “ Death Trip “.
