    Often overlooked but Roy Clark is a master of nearly all stringed instruments (Guitar, Banjo, Fiddle) and simply deserves more recognition

      _By the early 1970s, Clark had been named "Entertainer of the Year" three times by the Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association (CMA). The Academy also named him "Best Lead Guitar Player" and "Best Comedy Act", while the CMA named him an "International Friendship Ambassador" in 1976 after Clark toured the Soviet Union._

      In the music industry, Clark has his recognition as master, and certainly fans of bluegrass and old country recognize his mastery as well. Those are unfortunately small audiences, but the approbation does exist by the people Clark would find most valuable to his soul. The musicians know. Watch any YT reaction video by any guitarist watching Clark play Malaguena for the first time.
      Here's one, by a professional guitarist who puts Clark in the same class as Prince: ruclips.net/video/pGwmpvaDqcU/видео.html

      I feel you brother, I’m a Latino born and raised in Oregon and hearing this got me choked up. It brought back memories of a very happy time in my life, growing up in the beautiful country. Our family, typical large Latino family with 8 siblings, sitting around the TV set watching Hee Haw, jumping around and dancing away. Definitely music to my soul as well 😊

      Hey, I'm an old white guy but I've got over 500 CDs of black jazz and rock musicians so I don't see anything unusual about you enjoying a little banjo music. I only regret that more people haven't heard the genius of these jazz greats from the past. I never knew them either, but an old guy working at Tower Records 35 years ago took me under his wing and started introducing me to the legends one CD at a time. I don't even know his name but I sure am grateful he took the time so share his love of jazz with me. Now changing the subject, it blows my mind how few young African-Americans even know who Jimi Hendrix is, arguably the greatest guitar player of all time! Music is an endless journey and each genre has its treasures waiting to be discovered. The reward is a lifetime of enjoyment.

      Brett Adkins, there's a British guy who reacts to guitarists, and he says Roy was the best ever with any stringed instrument, whether guitar, banjo, mandolin or violin/fiddle. He was so good, he could play something extremely difficult that another player would have to constantly look at one of his hands to pull it off. But Roy had enough talent to be able to play the most difficult songs, and still make faces at the audience, or clown around some other way. Yet, being in country music, many people never heard of him.

  • @paulissler8319

    As a child I was introduced to Roy Clarks talents and was truly amazed. I grew to enjoy most all music but gravitated to rock. With that said, I never shied from country and always fought to show the rockers in my crowd what an amazing talent that Roy was.
    Here I sit, an old man now myself, still in awe, maybe moreso now as I feel the age of this man in this video. Still sends shivers up muh spine and brings memories to the corner of my eyes listening to the magic. Thank you Roy for a lifetime of music.
    Anyone else still listening in 2024?

    My banjo pickin brother made me love the dueling banjos! He was in a band called Jango in the 70s in the San Jose area. But he dueled it out with Annie a violinist/fiddled. The wooden floors of Mountain Charlie's were nearly stomped on down to the hill. Man! Thanks for allowing reminisce.

    I'll never forget Roy Clark. I grew up on music roll. I watched Roy drive his motorcycle through the window of RCA recording studio. Loved to play county music, being a Flatt I learned to play guitar with Chet Atkins, the Stoneman family, and of course my family. I'll remember that for evermore. Keep pick'en & a Grin'en.

I grew up with a lot of actors and a lot of celebrities being in your 70's like I am and don't see them for 55 years its a shock, you only remember them the last time you saw them and a lot of them has left us RIP 9/28/2019
