      Hey Jamel. I have loved your reactions ever since I first discovered you. I am a senior guy in western Canada. In my opinion you are one of the nicest people I have ever seen, and probably the singular best person that I would want to share this secret with. I am just 9 years younger than Tom Jones. When Tom did that incredible performance of "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" he was 27 years old. I was 18. Did you know that Tom sung a new song less than a year ago at age 83? Link below. I would love to watch your reaction to it, since just today, I had my own reaction to it after seeing it for the first time. MIND BLOWING. The man is 83 years old. Still strong. Still built strong. How is that even possible? It's because he is from Wales. That's the only reason I can think of. As the man himself said one time in a moment of humility, "Everybody from Wales sings Like I do". I love you man. ruclips.net/video/_KhORNfgGJs/видео.html

    Roy Clark was a great entertainer, humble man & super talented. He was both a singer & musician. His guitar & banjo playing are legendary. A lot of musicians & artists today could learn a lot from his style & technique. Glen Campbell & Jerry Reed were also underrated guitarists. But these men paved the way for a lot of musicians today.

    Roy is the epitome of "Be A Good Human". That man gave so much of his money away... and he worked hard for it as well. Several times over the years I have tried to catch him at his managers office, (as I live close by), and never seemed to be able to catch him. Thanks to Roy and his money in supporting children causes, I was fortunate to work with someone who helped my eye issues no one seemed to be able to diagnose. My eyesight improved so dramatically I was able to go from a struggling C student to an A student and was able to attended college graduating with two degrees on the honor roll. I had deep gratitude for what he did for many unselfishly. Roy passed away without me ever meeting him. Rest in Power Roy..... you earned your wings.
