#royclark #malagueña #reaction Rapper FIRST time REACTION to Roy Clark - Malaguena (The Odd Couple)! WTF was THAT!? Join this channel to get access to perks: / @blackpegasusraps
If it had strings, he could play it. He may not have been the best in the world at every instrument, but he was great on all of them. And on guitar, he may have been the best. At any rate, it would be a close run thing between him and Chet.
Yeah, watch him on a fiddle, a banjo, and, apparently because of his little bit of stage fright, he threw in all his silliness and humor, which was just terrific! I’d throw Glen Campbell in there as another guitar master! His voice sold him commercially, but from his time on the wrecking crew All the way through, He was a beast!
Alice Cooper tells a story about how he owed Eddie Van Halen a favor and Eddie asked Alice, who was close friends with Glen Campbell, if Alice could arrange a GUITAR LESSON for him with Glen. Think about that. Eddie asking for a guitar lesson with Glen Campbell.
If you look at most of the people on the list, when they wanted help, they went to Campbell or Clark. Glen Campbell doing The William Tell Overture is mind blowing. Of course, Roy Clark could play pretty much anything with strings.
@@wegotlumpsofitroundtheback5065 Glen had a huge talent for chord progressions,and arrangment. He was very mechanically knowledgeable about the guitar from a young age. When his alzheimers had taken everything,he still played,not remebering his licks. But staying on point like a pro. I hadnt heard of this, but im not surprised.
Another Fun Fact. Not only was he a talent in the music world. He was also Drafted by the Baltimore Orioles MLB. He said he was pretty sure he would have made the Big leagues. However, there was way more money in music in the 1960's, than in Baseball. So he chose Music!
He can play classical, flamenco, finger picking, he even throws in percussive techniques. This particular song is flamenco. He is definitely up on the list of greats! RIP RC! ❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
Malagueña is a famous Classical Spanish composition renowned for it being one of the most difficult songs. If you can even play this, you're a certified bad ass. Roy is an incredible performer and is just as good on the banjo, the mandolin, and the violin and is a good comedian, to boot.
Malagueña is a classic folk dance from Malaga, Spain. The amazing part where the audience clapped is meant to correspond to the footwork of the female dancers (the Malagueñas, or ladies of Malaga).
My mother gave me tickets to see Roy Clark. I was not thrilled because I remembered Roy Clark from Hee Haw and thought he was corny country. It was one of the best performances I have been blessed to see. He was so talented and very funny. He was also so kind to his audience.
If Mr. Clark had decided to play rock music he'd be talked about in the same vein as Hendrix, Clapton, Stevie Ray, etc. The man was beyond phenomenal as a musician.
As a little girl I had no idea how talented he was. He was just a favorite character on Hee Haw!! He is just wonderful. My Daddy use to tell me “Lucretia, he is a great guitarist”.
You couldn't meet a nicer down the earth man that Roy Clark. My dad and Roy fished together several times over the years and Roy was just salt of the earth.
I grew up near Branson (back when that actually kind of meant something) Roy was like a king. Everybody knew him, loved him had pictures with him had stories of meeting him in a restaurant and he'd pick up your check. Just all kinds of lovely stories. Andy Williams was another that was pure class that spent a lot of time in Branson.
I'm an old English guitarist and I can't tell you a damn thing about 'best'. I will tell you that Roy was admired, influential, respected and loved. And that is more than enough.
When I was 13 I asked my parents to take me to see him in concert and they did. He was just as amazing on banjo and fiddle. I’m 61 now and still haven’t seen anyone like Roy Clark
the tv show was The Odd Couple and as you might have noticed, it was filmed in front of a live studio audience. one take. it was his masterpiece to play that showed off his real skill.
Roy was an absolute genius with any stringed instrument. He could play anything and was equally adept at serious music or comedy. I have to suggest his songs of "Thank God and Greyhound" or "Dueling banjos". "Yesterday when I was young" will tug at the heart strings and make you think.
This particular song has been around a long time. The title is Malaguena I believe. This is the short version. There is a live version of the full song.
Dueling Banjos is a classic example of call & response on guitars and its performance at its finest and greatest!!Fun and catchy,and very entertaining... I second checking that one out as well.😄✌
Roy Clark and Chet Atkins have long been known as two of the best guitarists of all time, long before our modern-day great rock guitarist. He is a country singer who can do classical guitar too.
My husband's best friends father in Law, Mr Goens, made several guitars for Chet and probably Roy to. He was a master Luther. Nice man. I just can't remember his first name.
The best live show I ever attended was a Roy Clark show in Branson. To watch him play Malaguena in person is something you will remember for the rest of your life. No doubt, I have seen the best guitar player in the world.
Roy Clark should definitely be on anyone’s top 10 guitarists list. What he’s doing is so difficult. He’s playing classical Spanish/flamenco style on a regular acoustic guitar with percussive tapping, harmonics, finger-picking. It’s just pure unadulterated talent; no frills or gimmicks, simply skill. So glad u reacted to this. xx
You just witnessed the birth of the guitar tap/slap ! It was to make the sound of a Famenico dancers feet! Roy Clark is a guitar god! PLEASE check out his cover of Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues"! He creates sound effects of the train tracks, gun shots and it is a very funny performance! He get's silly! Also, Dueling Banjos with Buck Trent and "Orange Blossom Special" with Jimmy Henley ! RC mastered any instrument with strings! Rest In Paradise Mr Clark! 🤠
In the 70's I really wanted a guitar and dad kept saying no. Finally he thought he would shut me down and said he would buy me a guitar when I could play Malaguena. He loved Roy Clark and was sure I would never be able to figure it out cause you know.... just a girl and all. I borrowed a guitar from the school band teacher and worked tirelessly for weeks on end but I figured out a simplified version, played it for my dad and got my first guitar! I never came close to playing like Mr. Clark, but I always loved listening and watching him play!
Roy Clark won lots of awards in his day. Clark was only fifteen when he won National Banjo Championships, which led to his guest appearance at Grand Ole Opry two years later. He really was a professional classical musician who loved country music. PS, he's a wonderful singer too. He sang, Yesterday When I Was Young. Love that song. 1970 - CMA - Comedian of the Year 1972 - ACM - Entertainer of the Year 1973 - ACM - Entertainer of the Year 1973 - CMA - Entertainer of the Year 1975 - CMA - Instrumental Group of the Year 1976 - CMA - Instrumental Group of the Year 1977 - CMA - Instrumentalist of the Year 1978 - CMA - Instrumentalist of the Year 1980 - CMA - Instrumentalist of the Year 1982 - Grammy Award for Best Country Instrumental Performance for his recording of Alabama Jubilee
The list is a totally politically correct list. Several greats were left off the list Gatemouth Brown, uncle Ted and several other greats that Rolling Stone didn't like personally
I’m 67 yrs old and I’ve pretty much always listened to classic rock. But I grew up watching Hee-Haw on TV. And after listening to Roy Clark for many years, I truly Do believe that he is the best ever. And I’m also proud to say that he was a fellow Virginian from FarmVille. R.I.P. Roy.
I wonder if we did. I would have been awfully young and don't remember, and my parents are both gone now so I can't ask them if they remember. I have been hoping that someone who was in that studio audience will pop up in one of these comments sections and describe that amazing experience. Every time someone reacting to this pops up in my feed I'm all in.
Roy Clark, Glen Campbell, Jerry Reed, and Lindsay Buckingham. Masters of the 12 string acoustic guitar. One of the hardest and most beautiful sounding guitars out there. All have great sets out there on RU-vid.
Determining the GOAT when it comes to guitar is totally subjective. Everyone has our favorites, and Eddie, Stevie, Jimmy, Mark Knoffler, many others get mentioned alot. But there is no mistaking Roy Clark is also incredibly talented and would be hard to argue he deserves to be recognized as one of the greatest!
Not to mention ( I suppose some would say this is being picky ) that all time goes back to the Baroque period; Really picky is : even today most guitarists ( all around the world) aren't recorded - some, at least, because they don't want to be
The old school country/bluegrass guys are on another level of guitarists!! Roy Clark, Glen Campbell, Jim Stafford, Jerry Reed!!!! If it's got strings, Roy can play it on an Elite level!! Guitar, banjo, fiddle!!!
This song was written in 1933 and is a great example of classical Spanish guitar. Being played by one of the 20th century masters of the guitar only makes it better.
People from Spain, go..."oh ya, thats a master right there" . When Roy does the "slap" thing, its at a point when the dancers stomp their feet to the same rythm. Absolutely stunning!!!
I was thinking about suggesting this video! Roy was very talented, played multiple instruments, sang, acted and very funny. I believe there are also some videos out there with Roy and Johnny Cash playing together.
I *LOVE* to watch folks react to this! Your face showed just how incredible Roy Clark is. A lot of people think he was just a guy on Hee Haw (tv show) who played with Buck Owens and wore overalls. Roy Clark is one of the greats and sorely missed!
Caterina Valente - Malagueña (1955) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SLMbmecCFlg.html is the famous one. Malagueña meaning "from Málaga", a city in Southern Spain. The lady who sings and dances, Caterina Valente, Italian-German-French, is arguably the Worlds first super star, with a singing career in half a dozen languages and on all continents. She promoted/exported the Brazilian Bossa Nova to North America, Europe and Asia. Malagueña is a Spanish folk dance. Spanish guitar, flamenco guitar, that's right. And you're right, playing this is meant to be serious business. You are allowed to clap, if you do it in time, and crying or shouting ¡Olé! is on point, too. A guitar plays, everyone else dances.
You need to keep in reference that at the time of this recording, Roy Clark was almost unknown outside the world of Country/Western music. He was a "HeeHaw" regular [look that one up!] and although anyone who watched him there saw his guitar prowess, most of the rest had no idea who he was or what he could do.
Roy Clark is an amazing musician/singer/comedian. His true music talent often gets overlooked because people think of him as just that guy from Hee Haw. However, as you see here his guitar skills are top notch. While he does play some classical music, he often gets cast as a country musician. Some recommendations of more Roy Clark: Instrumentals: 12 Street Rag (the black and white of him playing it on an electric is amazing) Duelin' Banjos (there are videos of him playing this on guitar and banjo) Orange Blossom Special (I think there is a video of him playing this on the fiddle) Singing: Thank God and Greyhound Yesterday When I was Young Folsom Prison Blues (I would recommend the duet of him and Johnny Cash for this one) This is a deep rabbit hole, but worth exploring. Also I'll mention another top guitarist who could sing and that is Glen Campbell. A great introduction of his guitar skills, is him playing the William Tell Overture. There are many videos of him playing it. It is hard to pick a bad version of it. He played it on electric and 12 string accoustical (which is insane given the speed). One thing that I find impressive about both of these guitarists is that they played with little to no distortion. Any mistake and you are going to hear it. But as you saw here, they both achieved levels of perfection that are hard to believe. Thanks for the reaction.
He was also drafted by the Baltimore Orioles. He said he was pretty sure he would have played MLB. He said he could make a lot more money in music in the 1960's
A music virtuoso. Give him any instrument and he could play it. Same with Barbara Mandrell. She's worth checking out. The style is flamenco. Wait til you see him on the banjo
You are right, Roy Clark was indeed one of the greats. As was Glen Cambell. Its crazy how much raw talent existed in the 60's through the early 1980's. Some of these sounds might be replicated digitally today, but it is a rare human who can execute this at all, let alone live & in one take. Im not big on banjo music but Roy was absolutely jawdropping on a banjo too. Keep following these recommendations, you are in for a wild ride.
You are witnessing the genius that music and artists were in my day. I might be an old woman now, but the tradeoff is that I got to grow up in the middle of it all.
I know of Roy Clark ( country singer/guitar legend,) thanks to my grandparents watching a country comedy variety show named " HE HAW" Roy Clark was one of the main stars.
Roy Clark is a master of string instruments, member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, and hosted a country music variety show called Hee Haw for about 20 years. Check out him doing Dueling Banjos with Buck Trent. Great reaction
Look up more of Roy Clark. You will be amazed at what he can do...any kind of guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, harmonica & so much more. People don't take him seriously because he's a country singer. They dismiss him. Roy can do it all sing, play many instruments, comedy. He hosted along with Buck Owens a show called "Hee Haw." One of many greats in Country Music. Along with Roy are Glenn Campbell, Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins & many others. When these guys got together is was great joy for us. They left their egos behind & enjoyed picking together. All you see is the smiles on their faces. Wait til you see what Roy can do with an electronic guitar. We saw this stuff all the time on tv. Many times on " the Hew Haw show".
Roy Clark is impressive playing any instrument put in his hands, and it seems effortless for him. It is pure astonishment for the viewer and listener to witness his greatness.
I only remember Roy Clark with a Banjo on HeeHaw, I watched the Odd Couple all the time, one of my favorite shows. I don't remember this. This was amazing!
An amazing entertainer. Could play any string instrument, could sing a very serious song, "Yesterday When I was Young" or funny "Thank God and Greyhound Your Gone." Saw him in concert once, he looked like he was having a ball the whole time.
Wait till my man discovers Rodrigo y Gabriela - "Tamacun" or "Hanuman". He is gonna lose his mind, especially a live version where he can see Gabriela play. Her "percussion style" of play still baffles me and I've been playing for 30 years. B.P. , if you watch her play, watch her right hand. As it strums the rhythm, she is hitting the body of the guitar to mimmick the drums. So she is essentially playing 2 instruments simultaneously
Malagueña" (Spanish pronunciation: [malaˈɣeɲa], from Málaga) is a song by Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona. It was originally the sixth movement of Lecuona's Suite Andalucía (1933), to which he added lyrics in Spanish. We are watching Roy play 4 different guitars and drums without switching instruments.
Thank you, Pegasus, for reacting to my suggestion. You always do a top-notch reaction. Roy was one of my favorite human beings. He was a host on Hee-Haw. He is super funny, just a talented person.
I couldn't help but smile and laugh, that was Roy Clark genius in the mastering the guitar, your reaction was great, awesome never to be seen again with that performance. Love love love you are the best..............................
