I'm old enough that I watched these shows! The Hee Haw show was on the air 23 years! Glad you enjoyed this! I really like the way you show gratitude. To all the artist that you have reacted too!
@@Frank-yu1it I was 12 in 71! And I remember it being something we watched every time it was on! I mean like there was only three channels back then! And I was the remote for the TV if you know what I'm talkin about! Lol And when Lawrence Welk was on. I would change that channel faster than the others! Lol
@@neoncatfish4038 I watched this show while in college. It was the one show that would consistently fill up the dorm lounges. The Avengers with Emma Peel and some British guy 😁 ran a close second.
Roy Clark was a brilliant musician. Even jazz great Joe Pass was impressed enough to record a duet album with him. The TV show, “Hee Haw,” was conceived as a country answer to the incredibly popular, “Rowan and Martin’s Laugh-In,” but it soon achieved an identity of its own, mixing cornpone silliness with fantastic music.
This was from the variety show Hee Haw. Its so great to see people still watching these after all these years. I wasnt even sure if all these old shows were still around.
My uncles literally played this at a family reunion in the park. All I could think while I was watching was; If everyone within a 100 yard radius didn't know we were hillbillies before, they did now.
I love the fact that you youngsters have started to discover the talent that my generation grew up with, in all genres of music. If you listen to enough of the music from the 50's through the 70's you will hear sounds that artists are still trying to reproduce. Remember the further back you go the less electronic enhancement is involved in the music. No auto tune for vocals and a lot of the instrumental enhancements were just being developed.
Hee-Haw was a popular comedy/country music variety show. The song was originally featured in the movie "Deliverance". That "competition" was between a local boy on the banjo and the city slicker on guitar. A brief moment of mutual respect before the natives got restless.
This is from 'Hee Haw', one of my favorite TV shows growing up. A 'country western' inspired variety / comedy skit show hosted by Buck Owens and Roy Clark. While I was only 9 when it first aired, I was totally smitten with Lisa Todd. Possibly my first legitimate crush.
This was from the 1960's comedy, variety show "Hee Haw". Roy Clark was a regular and Buck Trent was a guest. The show was pure slapstick country comedy.
Thanks for doing all these Roy Clark instrumentals. He was also a great singer and song writer. If you want to react to a great song with him singing, "Thank God And Greyhound" would be a good one.
I never knew Buck Trent... I always knew Buck Owens from that same show. You have to check out Buck Owens and Dwight Yoakam .. Streets of Bakersfield. So Good!!!!!
You need to check into the history of this show, "Hee Haw." It was hosted by Roy Clark & Buck Owens. The guy shown here is Buck Trent one of Clarks buddies. This show ran from June 15, 1969 to June 19, 1992 before it went into syndication. "Dueling Banjo's" was a song that was originally played in the Burt Reynold's movie "Deliverance," that came out in June 1972. The song in the movie was a banjo and a guitar played by Eric Weissberg & Steve Mandell.
you're right it was a variety show back in the day..Roy Clark was my 3rd cousin..we spent alot of hot summer nights playing music and singing with the family back in the 80's on the front porch. Roy would come by from time to time when he wasn't busy with the t.v shows
Britt The background behind of Roy and Buck was part of TV variety country show named, "Hee Haw" during the 60's to 70's possible in the 80's. Roy Clark and singer, guitarist, Buck Owens were the hosts of the show. Dueling Banjos is a staple of country music for many years with some icons in the business such as Lester Flats and Earle Scruggs. Actor, Steve Martin is also a musician plays banjo too. He jammed with Scruggs and others during an episode of Late Night with David Letterman. Early in his career, Martin used his banjo playing as part of his comic act.
Roy Clark is one of the great entertainers in American history, and he usually blew your mind with a smile on his face. One exception was a performance of "Malaguena" on "The Odd Couple." Clark got serious, and the resulting spectacular left Tony Randall and Jack Klugman sitting there with their mouths open. Check it out.
I believe this was off a comity show called "Hee Haaw" or something like that, And it was a real audience. Great comity show back in the 60's and early 70's.
I grew up watching Roy Clark and buck Trent they were the best the show they were on was hee haw was a great show back in the day it was a sad day when hee haw went off the air
People my age grew up on music variety shows, including Hee Haw, Andy Williams, Ed Sullivan, Dean Martin, Shindig, Hullabaloo, Midnight Special, even Lawrence Welk, and many others. Most of the video clips from then are performances on these shows.
Roy Clark was a master at his ability to play any string instrument. If you haven’t reviewed Glen Campbell and Roy Clark “Ghost Riders in the Sky, make it a must see.
This was from Hee Haw, a country music variety show that Roy Clark was host, Buck Trent was a regular member, with several other singers and musicians and always had great country music guests
This gentleman are both extremely talented!! Watch Roy Clark playing orange blossom special on the fiddle by young boy named Jimmy plays the banjo! Both very talented but so so so funny!! That’s reaction
To see Roy's full talents, check out a video titled: 'Roy Clark can play any genre'. It's a few clips from an episode of the Odd Couple (old TV show) which he was guest starring on. He sings, plays banjo, violin and an amazing guitar solo!
That was on the TV Show called Hee Haw ... you have to watch a few episodes as all the best Country artists went on that show. It was so wholesome and great fun. Hilarious but oh so much talent.
Hee Haw was one of the greatest variety shows going for many years. It was funny, corny, and unpretentious, never trying to be otherwise. It also had some of the greatest LIVE performances you'll find anywhere. Roy was one of the regular hosts of the show as well as a regular performer.
At this time Buck Trent was probably considered the greatest banjo player in the world and to this day any list of the greatest guitarist in ever doesn't include Roy Clark should be ignored. Roy Clark can play any string instrument ever, better than almost anybody.
I'm glad to see you can appreciate some good ole hillbilly music don't hate on me y'all my peeps are from West Virginia I'm a hillbilly and proud of it
What a lot of us all grew up to most every Saturday night. It was so pure. So over the past +40 years since graduating, when I hear someone ask who's the best guitarist ever? I haven't wavered, it's still Roy Clark. I'll also admit my favorite music is rock.
B - Thanks for sticking with one of yesteryear's greats. Roy was a great entertainer and musician who deserves to be remembered generation after generation! He was a master of anything with strings, including mandolin and fiddle, in addition to guitar and banjo. Roy's "home" was in country music, but his talent had no limit. You expect country musicians to do excellent (and entertaining) covers of country songs, but one of Roy's finest performances on guitar was the flamenco style song "Malaguena" -- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Pz2hXI7Ny9I.html
Really loving seeing you branch out to all different kinds of music. Like seeing you get excited and surprised by all these different kinds of music. You're doing a great job with your reaction channel. Keep it up!
Roy Clark was a monster. Give him a cigar box banjo with rubber bands for strings, he’d absolutely shred on it 🤟 Also, that bit at :54 in, you’d NEVER get away with that today LOL
