WOW you ain't to shabby yourself. Obviously with a LITTLE practice dare I say another Roy Clark!! just WOW!!! I am continuously amazed at what the human system is capable of.
I wish we were still living in a time where you could just have a guitarist on mainstream television absolutely killing it. No fuzz, not explosions, not dancers. Just a guitarist and his music.
Great reaction and really great playing too. You were really able to pick up what he was doing very quickly. You have an amazing ear for music. You should definitely check out more Roy Clark.
This probably was 1963. I remember watching this when it was on TV ... pre Beatles for sure. The next day my dad hit several record stores trying to buy the album, The Lightning Fingers of Roy Clark. SOLD OUT! He came home with a scratched up demo album with no sleeve-jacket. I still have that jacket-less record. His performance that night was talked about at school the next day. I was 9 years old then, a 4th grader, I'll never forget it.
Roy Clark could play anything with strings. He was one of a kind. You're pretty good, yourself! Check out Roy's Malaguena from a t.v. show, The Odd Couple.
Hey you followed right along Erik-Oskar....good playing and your guitar has a pure/clean sound. Very resonant and crisp. Ol Roy Clark was one of a kind self-taught and brilliant on several instruments.
Roy is the best to do it on any side of any pond. Kills me how he rarely enters such conversations. People think of him as a banjo player. If it had strings he was awesome
You, sir, are a formidable guitarist yourself. If that's the first time you listened to that recording, and it's not your principal genre, I'm impressed.
To make it easier to pronounce twelfth and fifth, most Americans that I know treat the f before the th as silent, so that it sounds like "twelth" or "fith". "Fth" is awkward off of the tongue.
Add physical comedy to his bag, he has lots going on and effortlessly dancing around us, those faces... Another 🐐 Vince Gill is a bmf on guitar as is Billy Strings
The twelveth st rag was a ragtime jazz composition from the early 1914? Sheet music available but Roy Clark was self taught. Not sure if he could read music.
Good stuff sir! On the subject of what year this was, the Fender Jaguar he’s playing debuted in 1962, and I believe color TV in the USA was 1964 or 1965….. that may not be right. At any rate, I’d guess this was early to mid 1960’s…. Somebody can correct me if I’m wrong.
I'm Impressed that you could figure out the licks so quickly. Nice Job! 🙂 Looks like you've been playing for some time. Just curious, by any chance,: Are you a " Session Player?"
Hey Erik, Thought so..I just retired from playing Musical Theater and stage shows after playing out for over 40 years. I'm no stranger to "figuring things out under all conditions like Key Changes ,editing my charts on the fly and putting up with insane music directors and a full schedule. I can spot another very experienced musician a mile away You have the chops, so if a good position comes along GRAB it! *cheers*@@ErikSallad1
@@larryfried7742 okay, nice! I've played some in some small musicals and I think thats a really fun job. I would like to do it again, but on a little bit of a bigger scale. Thank you!
Yes he figured it out but I do believe he's been listening to Roy Clark for some time trying to mimic him . Can't convince me this was his first time listening he's to good and proves he can keep up with him .
@@ErikSallad1 I also bailed on this video because of too many stops. Take a tip from Fil of Wings of Pegasus. Play the song in it's entirety or with minimal stops and break it down afterwards. You play well and learn fast but let your audience enjoy what you've chosen. Thanks anyway.
@@ErikSallad1 It bothered me at first but as you continued it showed you cared about the performance and Roy Clark enough to want to learn from Him. Roy I`m sure would have loved for you to play along with Him because of the respect you showed by trying to emulate Him in this. Peace and brother love to you and all from the USA. I grew up watching Roy Clark on the show Hee Haw and I`ll be watching your videos as well, great job.
Really great . No offence but makes you see how great Roy was. Your hitting the notes but not the way he does. So many neuances so clear so musical But for of the cuff pretty amazing. You would need a ton of practice to make it come to life like he does. But I'm pretty shure you know this. Now make funny faces and tap dance lol.
