With modern technology you can see that he is playing faster than the T.V. Cameras can record. His strum hand is just a blur. The Odd Couple video is my favourite version of this.
Jose Feliciano (Felix Navidad) has a video on RU-vid with Bing Crosby (White Christmas) called Mama Don’t Allow. He shows his mastery and versatility on the guitar.
That type of guitar is known as a 'Semi Acoustic'. It has a hollow body like a traditional acoustic guitar with the electric pickups you find on an electric guitar so you can use it as both. The 'Drum' effect is him tapping the body of the guitar with his fingernail tip or a plectrum getting that hollow knock sound from the hollow body. This man is a musical magician. Anything with strings and he's incredible with it. Check out this short video where he plays guitar, Banjo AND Fiddle all in one tune. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ta4535Y8xYE.html
I saw both of them play the "William Tell Overture " on the Acoustic Guitar. Roy's version was much smoother, but you can't take away the prowess of Glen's playing.
He also plays this on a 12-string guitar. Another 😢person you’d never imagine playing this is a female guitarist named Charro, known as a “hootchie-cootchie” girl. She’s also a comedienne
I'm so happy someone finally mentioned Charro. She is one of the most overlooked Masters on Spanish guitar. There's so many good videos of her for them to watch. Hope Amber features her on a Female Friday.
exactly. And one of his funnier songs was "Thank God and Greyhound". My Dad used to paly that one everytime his mother-in-law went back home to Mississippi by Bus....lol
For some hot banjo sounds, check out Roy Clark and Buck Trent playing Dueling Banjos. Two masters stepping it up. He has an Oklahoma connection too - he lived in Tulsa where there is an elementary school named for him.
There is an amazing woman that goes by just the name Charo who most people only know from doing talk shows and guest roles on old TV shows back in the 70's but was also a world re known classical guitarist.
Yes!! So much more than the cuchi-cuchi girl we grew up with! Classically trained from the age of 9, one of the greatest Flamenco guitarists ever. She's so amazing ❤
"Yesterday, When I was Young" is an absolute favorite of mine. The older you get and the more regrets you accumulate the harder it hits you. Their a little young for full impact but can experience his beautiful voice.
After his concert at the FL Strawberry Festival in the mid-2000's, Roy Clark's bus was having issues leaving the FL Strawberry Festival & I helped his manager move the barricades to get them out. He personally came to the front of the bus and thanked me for helping. He was a good man.
Whether it is the fiddle, the mandolin, the banjo, or the guitar, few are as accomplished as a musician and as a person who can be funny while he is being brilliant.
You've never heard of Roy Castle, have you?!?! He could literally play ANY instrument, as well as dance, sing, & act, & he was also a pretty funny comic too!! Probably the most talented 'all-round' performer Britain ever produced!
Roy is also a very good vocalist. You need to check out "Yesterday When I Was Young", "Thank God and Grayhound" and "Right or Left at Oak Street ". Thanks so much for today's pick and reaction.
I've been waiting anxiously for you to check out Roy Clark. He plays guitar, banjo, fiddle... And is incredible. Oh and he does sing too! And he's so funny!!!! There's a duet with Roy and Glen Campbell as well!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Amber and Jordan Roy Clark can play just about anything with a string. Guitar, Banjo, Fiddle. You name it. You may like to see SRV and his brother Jimmie play (Pipeline) on the same guitar at the same time. Keep up with the good work 😎👍
Being a goofy lovable character on Hee Haw. The average Joe Shmo didn’t know Roy was so talented. He’s great on the banjo. Since you loved this I’m gonna tell you guys yet again to check out Glen Campbell plays The William Tell Overture (acoustic). You won’t be disappointed.
It makes me mad that Roy is rarely included when the conversation turns to Best Guitarists of All Time. He should always be a part of that conversation
Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona wrote Malagueña in 1933. It originally part of a larger piece (Suite Andalucía). He based it on a solo piano piece by Louis Gottschalk called "Souvenirs d'Andalousie" ("Memories of Andalucia"). You can find lots of classical guitar performances of Malagueña on RU-vid. One good version is by Pepe Romero. There are also lots of versions of "Souvenirs d'Andalousie."
Roy Clark was on the show Hee Haw every week. He was a country singer. I think he also played in movies. He was big when I was growing up, in the 1970's. Both of my grandparent families watch him all the time.
I vaguely remember Roy Clark from Hee Haw as I was quite young but had no idea he was a genius guitar player. I mean, wow!!! Thanks for reacting guys. x
Growing up in the '70's, my fmily watched Hee Haw every Saturday night a 7 PM. If this kind of playing impresses you, check out Glenn Campbell and Jerry Reed instrumentals, too. RU-vid also has teamups of them all playing together. Mind blowing. Peace.
This is totally Spanish guitar Rendition and this Version is based on Carlos Montoya the Spanish Classical Guitarist who was Noted as the Best. The tapping on the Guitar is as if there is a flamenco dancer there...🎸🤔
FYI-Roy won the National Banjo Championship in 1947-he was 14 years old. He won it again in 1948. He was touring with a band at 15 and made his first appearance on the Grand Ole Opry at 17!! The rest…as they say…is history. RIP Roy Cheers all
Roy is Eddie Van Halen’s and Jimmy Hendrix’s favorite guitarist. This man is out of this world. He plays Harp, Fiddle, Banjo, and Mandolin. The most UNDER RATED guitarist ever. You HAVE TO go back and watch His 12th Street Rag instrumental and be sure to watch his face and eyes too during it lol.
Virtuoso = Roy Clark. He is one of the very best EVER . I see Spain and Flamingo dancers thank you Roy! The Spaniards know a thing or two about guitars. The hand beating on the guitar is akin to the Flamingo Dangers heels pounding the floor …pretty awesome.
Gee Roy Clark and Glen Campbell were some of the cleanest, meanest guitar players who honed their skills in the 1960's. They were shredding on their instruments in the early '60's - Roy Clark playing Twelve Street Rag on the Jimmy Dean show in the early 60's is a must see. Seeing Roy and Glen play the same guitar at the same time is amazing. Roy had a number of country hits, and was a regular members on the show Hee Haw. The thing about him is if the instrument had strings and you gave him a week he'd not only play it, he'd master it. So many rock, metal and shredders held both them in such high regard if not awe.
@@stevearmstrong1430 me too. For a while I thought I must be the only one suggesting Roy, as it has taken them months to get to him. From the ‘millions’ of comments clearly I was not alone!
