I'm old enough to remember when Arthur Fiedler was a regular part of our entertainment. He could do anything musical and his guests reflected that gamut. As the song says, those were the days, my friend. We thought they'd never end. We'd sing and dance forever and a day. We'd live the life we choose. We thought we'd never lose for we were young and sure to have our way. Let's share this and other performances of the same ilk and maybe some of what we are missing today in this beloved Country of ours will return. May the United States have many many more birthdays!
Thanks Roy Clark for your inspiration and the many hours of pleasure I have had listening to your music. Since I believe as you did in God's Heaven I look forward to meeting you someday...
Dreaming in black & white! I vividly remember the joy of regularly watching Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops. Unfortunately, I actually have very little memory of any actual performances unless they rebroadcast later in my life. I was eleven when this was originally broadcast. I was out of the country during the Bicentennial 4th of July festivities (and furious about it!) This episode is new to me, but now I can clearly claim that I remember seeing Roy go "woooo, wooooo... chugga-chugga-chugga-chugga"! I am sure that a lot of that childhood enjoyment was bonding with my mother. Although it was from the John Williams era, our favorite was with Victor Borge as guest. I regret that my mother is now only here with me in spirit to enjoy such gracious RUclips uploadings such as this. Thank you. Love you, Mom! Miss you!!
Thank you for uploading this concert. I used to love listening to the Pops on TV. Too bad they don't broadcast the concerts on FM or TV anymore. I guess they want people to spend big bucks to see them in person.
Roy Linwood Clark (Meherrin, Virginia; 15 de abril de 1933-Tulsa, Oklahoma; 15 de noviembre de 2018)[1] fue un músico de country y actor estadounidense, y uno de los animadores del reconocido programa televisivo Hee Haw entre 1969 y 1992, junto con Buck Owens.[2] Fue una importante e influyente figura en el ambiente de la música country, ayudando a popularizar el género. También era reconocido ser un virtuoso músico multinstrumentalista tocando la guitarra, el violín, el banjo, la mandolina y la armónica.[3] Falleció el 15 de noviembre de 2018 por complicaciones de una neumonía.[4]
It’s my understanding that the Balcones Fault Austin City Limits episode from 1976 is not available on RUclips. I sure hope someone uploads it soon, though, because it sounds like a good show. I’m particularly interested in seeing the intro with soundcheck and the closing credits. I have to wonder what the empty stage looks like. I imagine it as being a lot like an empty dance floor after the music stops, and there’s a lingering echo of the last song.👍
I can't remember what show it was, but I saw Roy Clark on a talk show where he said he grew up outside Washington, D.C. and grew up with the National Symphony Orchestra, not country music.
Poor Roy Clark possibly got a more upbeat reception by the communists in the Soviet Union. This Boston crowd seemed rather glum & reserved especially during his Orange Blossom Special banter

This was one of the greatest things I have ever seen on RUclips. Time can't erase greatness.. This was as good as it gets.

Love you, Mom! Miss you!!
Musical virtuoso, fantastic entertainer, Roy Clark, .. nobody else like him! He can PLAY!
Incredible talent...Roy Clark was an American music treasure.
This is a good demonstration of how good Roy Clark was as a musician
Evening at Pops was a tradition in my home on Sunday evening during the Summer. There was never a bad show!
Greatness!!!
Thank you for uploading this concert. I used to love listening to the Pops on TV. Too bad they don't broadcast the concerts on FM or TV anymore. I guess they want people to spend big bucks to see them in person.
I understand in the later years of Evening at Pops it was costing about a million dollars a epsiode to do..
Thanks for posting this. Roy was great.
This was Great! Thank you for uploading this.

Fantastic music. Thankyou for uploading this!
Good memories. Thank you.
Such an outstanding musician. Too many people think of him as Hee Haw.
If you could find the Christmas special with the Pops and Fiedler - that would be quite amazing!

I don't have such a program. What I have recorded is hit and miss.
Roy Clark playing la malagueña 1:06
I can't remember what show it was, but I saw Roy Clark on a talk show where he said he grew up outside Washington, D.C. and grew up with the National Symphony Orchestra, not country music.
What is the theme at 39:45?
As listed as number 10 it is Malagueña.
What was the music the Pops used to use on the closing credits?
I can't find the answer. I tried "Sound Hound" but nothing comes up. Maybe it is the ending of a song.

Why is this video in black & white?
As the notes say "Originally broadcast in color but recorded on a black & white Sony CV2000 reel to reel video recorder."
I always liked waiting for the cleaning lady 🧹 in the end credits because she reminded me of Carol Burnett
