I'm black, 72 year fart and got auto switched from a jazz video to this video. Man, am I taking a big breath and feeling a little teary eye. What monstrous gaggle of talent and for only two dang minutes we get to see them together like that. There are 3 artists i didn't know, but the rest, at one time or another, I've seen do a variety show, their own show or seeing them on a special some place. i love my jazz, motown, blues but I do love the hell out of the music and entertaining they did. They were entertainers for sure and there won't be their likes ever again. Glenn, I bought his greatest hits cassette tape, decades ago while in the military and wore the hell out of it. I new the words of every song on it. I'm not that religious yet, but one song on there that he seemed to really sing with conviction was "I Knew Jesus Before He was a Super Star." Barbara Mandrell on steel, never had a clue. Roy Clark, who could have more of a mischievous grin on his face while picking. Jerry Reed, I knew of him and Ol' Fred, doncha you know. I just needed a moment to blather a bit, lol. Have a good one you all. I'm off the key and reading the mail.
Vinyltapelover - I'm a 61 year old white fart & I was weened on the likes of Nat King Cole, Herb Alpert, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Cab Calloway, & Count Basie. Yes... Good music is Good Music. You have a blessed day!
@vinyltapelover, thank you for your service sir! Read the bible, Jesus STILL saves! It the worlds ALL TIME best seller! Start in the gospel of John. Im a 67 year old white man that cut his teeth on Motown and lets not forget Stax records! like you I wasnt religious either until a friend at work took the time to witness to me about the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ to pay for my forgiveness of sin. Now I LOVE the old hymns and songs about the wonderful things God has done for those that love him with all their heart! Have a blessed day sir!!!😇
@@stinkypinkeee5085 thats awesome... there was a video of Chet Atkins with Eddie Van Halen and Vince Gill on a christmas special on CMT from the 80s I believe I cant find it anywhere but it was super awesome!
These guys all worked in the studio but they are far from just studio musicians. They were the cream of the crop for their time. The band leaders. The top names.
I would have died. Monsters. All of them. Seeing Roy Clark on mandolin makes me smile. Glen Campbell was an absolute beast on guitar. Irlene playing drums....how freaking cool! How can you not smile seeing Lee Greenwood play sax? They're all monsters. Downloading this video. Lucky people to be there.
In the UK, we never saw any TV programmes featuring Roy Clark, so thank the stars for RUclips. Banjo, Mandolin or Guitar, Roy was an absolute talent. Behind his comedy skits, he was a seriously gifted Musician, but many of us in the UK would still not know about him had it not been for RUclips. I first discovered his talent while looking for 'Duelling Banjos' on here, but I've since seen quite a few great video clips of him, and he never failed to impress. No wonder he's so sadly missed.
@@maxedison8259 Seriously? No shows with Roy Clark on in the UK? Roy was a virtuoso on anything with strings. He would usually be the best in the building on banjo, guitar, mandolin, etc etc like he was born for it. Greetings from North Carolina btw... love our awesome cousins across the pond.
The fact that the video starts with Chet Atkins, while the band has Jerry Reed, Glen Campbell and Roy Clark, that might be the 4 best guitarists on 1 stage ever.
Yes, I've been a solid Ray Steven's fan since "Ahab" came out. Not only is he a great performer and song writer, but he's also a nice guy. Thank you Ray!
@@danielueblacker9118 "..just remember we can not fix stupid." Oh doggone it, you did it. Now I've got to go hunt up my Ron White videos and his dog Sluggo.,lol lol.
I love it. THREE Teles (count 'em, THREE). I am a Jazz player. Jerry Reed is about the only country player from whom I could never steal much. His technique is beyond mortal comprehension. God bless them all, as they are real pros.
So, what happened to her? I remember she was in a really bad car accident ( I think she was in a Mercedes that was one of the first cars that had air bags)
Does bring back memories. Bakersfield memories. That steel guitar player was my babysitter a few times. (back in the '50s) All we need now is Cousin Herb. And buying your furniture at Weatherby's.
I knew Lee Greenwood way back in the 70's. You should see him play 2 saxes at the same time...in harmony. A brilliant musician. This is definitely an all star band.
I don't know why that surprised me, these people have always been incredible, truly talented performers and top notch musicians. I get the feeling they all could have moved one instrument to their left and performed just as well.
If you are ever wondering about how good Glen Campbell was on guitar think about this. Once, Eddie Van Halen asked a mutual friend (Alice Cooper) if Mr. Campbell would give him a lesson. Status achieved: Guitar God. Legend.
He was the rhythm guitar on Sinatras "Strangers in The Night" and backed everyone up to Jimi Hendrix! Funny how his gitar virtuousity was overshadowed by Galveston and other songs. Incredible talent.
@@mountainwoodie9816 He was a member of the 'Wrecking Crew' studio musicians who took the place of actual band members when it came time to do song recordings, because they were so much better.
Wow, what amazing talent! Was always a fan of Barbara Mandrell, believe she and her sisters had a show once, that was as enjoyable to watch as Irlene on the drums.
It is just unbelievable that this didn't surface sooner ,I just jump for joy seeing these rare clips,these musicuans were talented and had god given gifts, they stopped before they even got started, Roy ,Glenn,Chet,were masters on the guitar,Glenn R.I.P.,EVERYONE in yhat jan session is a legend
That looked like such a blast....I couldn't imagine how much fun it would be to hang with that group....especially if I could play like them.....great show.....👍👍

@@dallasarnold8615 I don't know anything about the drumming techniques of one lady over the other, but having put Karen Carpenter's name out there, you gave me a moment of pause to think how understated and a wonderful women she seemed to be. We lost a good one, among many others, with her.
wow, oh, wow, oh, wow. first time i watch the vid. incredible. who knew then could play the sax and the piano. what a stage full of greats. thanks for posting.
The best I’ve ever heard from Lee Greenwood. Not the schmaltzy bs that gets trotted out every time he owes money or the US needs to misdirect attention from trying to wipe a brown or tan ethic group....
Back in the later 80s my wife got a hankerin' to go camping, so we were looking for a tent. We went to a large camping store and saw a tent that looked about the right size for us 2 (we're not big people). It said 4 man tent! I told my wife...4 man, no way, maybe me and the 3 Mandrell sisters. Truth be told I wouldn't have traded her for 12 Mandrell sisters, but... We still laugh about that.
Wow! That was the Bomb!!! I lived in Clarksville, TN, from 1980 to 1984 and watched Ralph Emery every morning. I didn't care for him much, but he always had new musicians on that were just starting their climb. I never knew that Lee Greenwood played the sax - and well!
Tom Johnson Really?....no, I mean really? Okay...one day later I go back and read the credits. Whaddyouknow...there it is. Sorry to have bothered you. Thanks.
That was actually an awesome presentation. The ‘song’ was what sounded like a break song. The music was the product of some of the combined talent of the most talented and accomplished musicians
A lot of people can play; they were raised to bang around on an instrument. Most are not "one" with the instrument. That is a gift , which comes from a beautiful spirit. Campbell was different. There's a huge difference. Miss you, Glen~~~
Check out Roy Clark. He plays classical guitar, is a speed demon on the electric and does old time corn jokes as well. Thank God and Greyhound (US bus company) you're gone! Karl
steve FromEngland Roy Clarke could play anything, Roger Miller was a great songwriter and pretty good on the ivories as well. Ricky Skaggs is a mandolin monster. Steve Warner can play guitar like nobody’s business ( and sing like an angel) and the Mandrell sisters got talent and looks! Surprised about Lee on the sax though. Missing Vince Gill from the band but maybe too many monsters already.
@@rustyaxelrod I just love good music mate, every type, as long as its good....But I think these guys topped the lot! Fantastic sound by what looks like a fantastic bunch of guys enjoying themselves.
These guys will never be replaced with the type of country music being put out these days, although that didn’t really sound like it was very country…I love every one of them, very talented people!

I've seen at least half of these amazing and talented people in concert, too bad we don't have this kind of Talent on stage anymore. Or on the radio.
It is too bad that the talent on stage in the late 50s to the 90s isn't with us anymore. Studios just don't produce it because "it won't make money".
Lol ... when Roy Clark can't crack a solo you know you've got some kinda band.
Or Glen Campbell
When the video starts off with "Good Evening, I'm Chet Atkins" you already know it's the real deal....
Well said

Studio Musicians are the backbone of the industry. They never get the credit they deserve.
These guys all worked in the studio but they are far from just studio musicians. They were the cream of the crop for their time. The band leaders. The top names.
There are some who got credit for their own work but not for studio work. Glen Campbell (see video) to name one.
Dude! These guys (and gals) are/were Artists in their own rights. If you were lucky to get one as a Studio musician, you’d have a hit on your hands. 😊
@@buckellard I made the same point and a guy who identifies as a " professional guitarist said I'm wrong.
@buckellard You got it exactly and most if not all also sang, wrote music, acted, did comedy... an amazing array of talent.

The humility of them all playing together and each enjoying the others' gift in turns. Amazing...
Never to be repeated again but also never forgotten. ❤
What a great BAND! Boy, the Mandrell sisters - Irlene on drums & Barbara on steel were GREAT!!! Loved it, Loved it❤❤
Indeed, I had no idea they had that
level of talent, very impressive.
Roy Clark, a modest,humble, powerhouse of a musician, what a video
Nelson Thibeau: I agree, so well said Sir.
Cousin Roy from 'The Beverly Hillbillies'.
Probably the best guitarist on stage and he let everyone else stand out.

Seriously? No shows with Roy Clark on in the UK? Roy was a virtuoso on anything with strings. He would usually be the best in the building on banjo, guitar, mandolin, etc etc like he was born for it.
Greetings from North Carolina btw... love our awesome cousins across the pond.
Each and every one of them would be considered a country music super star.
Not would be, ARE. They have the gold and platinum records on their walls to prove it.
They were ALL household names.
The fact that the video starts with Chet Atkins, while the band has Jerry Reed, Glen Campbell and Roy Clark, that might be the 4 best guitarists on 1 stage ever.
Steve Warner is a master too.
May not be the "best", but certainly the most popular. It's always a cliche' to say that most famous musicians are always the best.
Do you recognize the piano player ?
@@frankwhatton9731That's Ray Stevens on the keys...
Ricky Skaggs is one heck of a picker as well.
Always felt Ray Steven's keyboard talents were under-appreciated because of the focus on the comedic songs. Nice to see him here.
I was gonna say that looked like him
Amen
Beautiful pianist too. Think he is a world class piano player.
The Streak is such a good song
Yes, I've been a solid Ray Steven's fan since "Ahab" came out. Not only is he a great performer and song writer, but he's also a nice guy. Thank you Ray!
Geez!! Irlene Mandrell KILLING it on drums.
Big Sister Barbara did pretty good on steel guitar…
@@williampaz2092Thank you guys. I didn’t know the two ladies playing.
I used to do a radio show called “Let There Be Country” I interviewed Irlene Mandrell. What a fantastic artist, she has quite a life resume
very talented
@@jimjustice581I suspect that between those two ladies, they could play every instrument on that stage.
This was awesome!!!! Thank you for sharing this!!!💕🤠
To realize and appreciate this dynamo of talent is opportunity NEVER to be duplicated ever again.
They could give half of their talents to modern performers and still have some to spare. Roy, Jerry and Glenn. 3 of my favorite guitar players. Nice!
I now aspire to be as happy as Irlene Mandrell is playing drums!

They probably saw Neil Armstrong step off the ladder and said "What's so special about climbing down a ladder?"

So great, I wish more musicians would collaborate like this, the combined talent is incredible.
Also missing Glen Campbell, such a good guitar player,
considering they only gave Jerry Reed a 10 second solo, there just wasnt enough room for everybody.
them crooked vultures has a pretty good collab of musicians, theyre music is great too
NOT GOOD...THE GOAT!!!!!!
All that talent and all they play is a couple minutes of 12 bar without any Roy Clark solos? Disappointing
What really impresses me is how short and tasteful these solos are.
any one of these players could go on for hours but they know
Country jazz fusion!! Love it! And Glen Campbell is a monster on guitar. We need to see more of this stuff.
More talent on that one little stage, than this world has produced, in over fifteen years.
You misspelled fifty... 😆
The Best!
Longer
Technically that's not true, there are much more highly accomplished musicians nowadays than ever before ...just not in mainstream music.
I knew Lee Greenwood way back in the 70's. You should see him play 2 saxes at the same time...in harmony. A brilliant musician. This is definitely an all star band.
Omg, this is a total gem. Wow, Glen Campbell and Roy Clark together on one stage. That was way too short,
If you like Roy and Glen, you can find them together doing Ghost Riders in the Sky and introduced by Grandpa Jones.
Glen & Roy playing Wildwood Flower, together. 🤣

Roy was fantastic! I live in Tulsa and didn't know that Roy lived there until after he passed.
steve FromEngland Roy Clarke could play anything, Roger Miller was a great songwriter and pretty good on the ivories as well. Ricky Skaggs is a mandolin monster. Steve Warner can play guitar like nobody’s business ( and sing like an angel) and the Mandrell sisters got talent and looks! Surprised about Lee on the sax though. Missing Vince Gill from the band but maybe too many monsters already.
steve FromEngland - you must be a guitar player Steve. 😁 check out some Roy Clark, he was an amazing player also.
@@rustyaxelrod I just love good music mate, every type, as long as its good....But I think these guys topped the lot! Fantastic sound by what looks like a fantastic bunch of guys enjoying themselves.
That is a heck of a lot of talent to be together in one spot!
These guys will never be replaced with the type of country music being put out these days, although that didn’t really sound like it was very country…I love every one of them, very talented people!
Jerry Reed still listening to him in 2020 loved him in Smoky and The Bandit
Roy Clark was one of the greatest Guitarists of all time
And just about any musical instrument.
That is so true!
@Evets Yelgen And the guy on his left.
Campbell was right there with him.
