There are people who can play an instrument as well as Roy Clark, but very few who can play as many instruments at such a high level as Roy Clark.

I'm so glad stuff like this is still being discovered by new folks. Buck and Roy are both legends in their own right.

Roy Clark loved to be around other great musicians. In an interview a long time ago he said something to the like of “ if you surround yourself with great players you will always learn something new to make yourself better.” A true talent!

Buck Trent was touring when he was 11 years old. NUFF SAID!

[@tommaxwell429]

Buck Trent is almost a legend as big as Roy. They are equally talented but Roy is better known. Like Roy, Buck plays a variety of instruments including guitar, 5 string banjo, mandolin, steel guitar, and dobro. He invented the electric banjo. He currently has his own show in Branson, I believe. Buck has been in country music his entire life. He started playing on radio shows in Spartanburg South Carolina at age 11. He played in several bands including for the Grand Ole Opry. He played lead guitar on Dolly Parton's Jolene and I Will Always Love You. He became more publicly known when he joined Roy on the TV show Hee Haw. Buck is every bit as talented as Roy and the two on Hee Haw made them a household name. Roy and Buck toured together for several years. They were the first Country and Western act to tour the Soviet Union in 1976. In addition to Dueling Banjos, the pair is also well know for their rendition of Ghost Riders In The Sky in which Roy once again works his magic.

Buck Trent and Roy Clark were regulars on Hee Haw, still seen in syndication. Now you need to hear him sing. Yesterday When I Was Young and Thank God and Greyhound are two favorites. There is an episode of the Odd Couple where he plays that is worth watching also.

[@kristenragle7372]

Roy Clark was more than a comedian,he was a song writer,actor,singer,and possibly the best instrumentalist of all time. It has been said,when Jimmy Hendrix was asked,”How does it feel to be the greatest guitarist who ever lived” he simply replied, “ I don’t know,you will have to ask Roy Clarke”

I am a HUGE Elvis fan but obviously recognise great talents in other spheres! This was AM-AZE-ING!!! 1 was born 1947 and as a child (here in a village in the middle of England) my dad was a HUGE fan of country music, including blue-grass and great banjo players. (I wasn't aware of Buck trend, I apologise and he's great)! It was always on the record player after he was home from work. Before Elvis came into my life, the first names of country I heard was the Singing Brakemann Jimmy Rodgers then great, great Hank Williams! The Country Music Poet and his alias Luke the Drifter was a heart wrenching dialogue type rendition. Unique! What can one say? I feel enlightened being exposed to such great music so young. Pity I never learned the art, too busy listening to it and loving it! I appreciate all music from Grand Ole Opry to Covent Garden Opera House! The first time I recall hearing Roy Clark play and I recognised, was The Orange Blossom Special. Aren't we blessed! Btw, thank you and I like your style, delivery and speaking voice! 👌🤗❤️🇬🇧

[@MadisonD941]

There are "many" absolutely masters of their musical instrument or several instruments, in country music. And some great voices also. Very talented people in country music.

[@ashleypenn7845]

If masterful playing and comedic theatrics is in your wheelhouse, you might like Victor Borge. He's a pianist who mixed his love of music with comedic routines (as well as some stand-up bits like phonetic punctuation). One of my favorites is when he's playing accompaniment for an opera singer. Hijinks ensue. He also did a bit with a man turning the pages of his sheet music for him (I believe the man was actually his son if I remember correctly). You might like that sort of thing.

[@barbaragabbert386]

[@ejd53]

He always said that his first love was guitar, but his first real success came when he won the national banjo championship in 1947 and 1948 (14 and 15 years old). He also said that in those days there were only two banjo styles when he was growing up and Earl Scruggs was both of them.

[@bemused9522]

Just a bit of trivia I only found out about a few years ago, but did you know that Steve Martin, the comedian, is a master banjo player and judges banjo contests? There is a great video of him on KZbin playing "Dueling banjos". Talent is everywhere and sometimes in the most unexpected places.

Buck Trent Lives here in Branson MO and until the pandemic was playing shows in local theaters. He and his wife Jean are the sweetest people. Buck lost his long time Bass player Randy McConnel last year. The story goes that when Roy Clark felt that he was getting in a rut he would come to Branson spend a day playing back and forth with Buck Trent and leave revived and excited about the banjo! Roy considered Buck to be the most inventive banjo player on the planet.

A bit of trivia: The original Dueling Banjos, called "Feudin' Banjos" was recorded in 1955 with a 5 string banjo played in a Bluegrass finger-picking style (as are both banjos in this video) but the second was a Plectrum banjo which lacks the fifth string but has the same tuning and is played with a pick.

Although I'm a rocker to this day I grew up watching HeeHaw. Seeing so many people reacting to great performances by Roy and his friends brings it all back. Roy was a master of his (multiple) craft(s) and a great showman. When you see him collaborate with someone they're a true talent as well, and you can always see the respect between them. In a performance like this it's two good friends trying to see just how far up they can take the performance, with a good deal of fun for us to enjoy along the way.

[@RobertDeMartin]

Thanks, again! Mickey Mantle, the great ballplayer, was born in Commerce, Oklahoma, and was a big Country Western fan. He loved Roy Clark and the feeling was mutual. When 'The Mick' passed away there was a memorial service for him and his closest and most famous fans were at the event and Roy sang one of Mickey's favorite songs. Pretty emotional moment especially if you were a big Mickey Mantle fan as I was. Please look for it. Maybe someone else can give you the formula to get it. Very special video.

[@naplesbridgecenter3476]

And Roy Clark answered the same question by saying "Ask Joe Pass"

[@ahardcorejedi2968]

Mrboyd was so sure of buck being a backup, he didn't capitalize any part of his name!

[@immyhoney]

Absolutely fabulous! They are both superb!

[@bullyakker]

They were both BEASTS! I recall this on what's that show... uh... someone help me.. as a kid... YEEHAW!!! Yes, that's the name of the show! =)

[@joerichards2658]

"Hee Haw" was a country music/comedy/variety show in the '60's and '70's. Roy Clark was one of the hosts of the show, and I get the impression that he was making the guest of this episode "look good". I'm pretty sure that Roy could have blown away Buck Trent if he put some more fuel on the fire, not taking anything away from Trent of course, who is a consummate musician in his own regard. For another example of Roy's talent, look up his appearance on the '70's show, "The Odd Couple" where he rips off an incredible rendition of "Malaguena"

[@edford1693]

Hee Haw ran from 1968 thru 1972 on CBS. Then after the "Rural Purge" in 1972 on CBS, it ran from 1972 thru 1992/93 in syndication.

[@garyr8739]

Roy never tried to show up any of the guests. There is one episode with a young boy, as a guest, playing the violin (fiddle) with Roy and Roy made sure he did NOT play better than the up and coming star, and this boy was very very good for his age - about 12 or so. He "may" have been able to play better than Buck, but you would never know it when they were on stage together. I have heard him play better on other songs, so it was hard to compare for this episode.

[@ednafenton7558]

@@garyr8739 I'm pretty sure you're talking about Jimmy Henley.

[@philly452009]

Thats what dueling banjos is, copying what the other guy plays, only better, but Buck and Roy are legendary, and yes I believe this was from Hee Haw which Roy cohosted many years with Buck Owens

[@andyfletcher3561]

Yeah, I watched it first time it aired. The song is modified version of the tune from the movie "Deliverance" and this episode was done not that long after the movie was released.

[@thewatchman6074]

..and buck Trent playing the harmony behind the melody. Masters of their trade.

[@JanetSmith900]

I had no idea how lucky I was as a kid to hear this every week.

[@JEBrink]

Have you seen Deliverance? This was inspired by a pivotal scene in that movie

[@eileenszudejko3455]

In 1952 there was a piece it was called feuding banjos. I remember seeing black and white film of the artist doing it. It was built on by many artist. Then the piece called dueling banjos was created for deliverance.

[@alexwaverley729]

Roy Clark and Buck Trent made a great album together titled "A Pair of Fives". I highly recommend it (if you can find a copy).

[@marthaz]

Two musical legends 👍☺️ love your analysis and genuine reactions 💕

[@janecampfield2732]

They were both comedians and superb musicians.

[@rosesmith6925]

It was kinda like a skit of two friends going slow with "is that the best ya got?" And then both trying to one up each other till they end together with that fabulous finish. Opryland Hillbilly music. Shame the picture has that stupid microphone in the center, it runs the looks they give each other as they try to outdo each other. I remember this when I was a kid ❤

[@gregsteele806]

There's a reason it's called "Pickin and a Grinnin." and this is it.

[@greenmonalisa]

The collaboration at the end is the whole point of this style of music. Both are amazing pickers. Bluegrass is full of enormous talent. :) Thanks for sharing!

[@shanemadsen4446]

There will never be another Roy Clark👍

[@lone6523]

Hillbilly rally call! Love it! I’d like to see a bigger picture of the artists and smaller inset of you.

[@estacadarocks3446]

In this genre i strongly recommed ; Glen Campbell, Jim Stafford, Jerry Reed. There are many others, but this would be a good start.

[@otherkorean]

Add Chet Atkins to that list.

[@erikagholston6610]

Both musicians are incredible.

[@TheLadyDraconus]

Ive seen some insane banjo duels when I was a kid in KY..... this is a classic

[@stevedavis5704]

Another really good banjo player is a lady called Mean Mary. I especially like her song Iron Horse.

[@BoojumFed]

Iron Horse was my introduction to Mary as well. *_Choice_* track.

[@brianbrekke9500]

Used to tune into Hee Haw every week, A great variety show that Roy hosted

[@pgooddmd]

The whole family would tune in to Hee Haw with us kids sitting on the floor in front of the TV, sharing oil popped popcorn-what memories. Don't you wish you could have truly appreciated the magic while it was happening?

[@EternallyThankful-os6pz]

I didn't expect that great of a performance from Buck Trent either...I'm a decently older man and while I've known Roy Clark all my life , but I had never heard of Buck Trent until just now with this vid...he did really good !!

[@monicat4]

I grew up watching these guys on Hee Haw and couldn't wait to see the segments where they played together. Amazing memories!

[@PeopleNeedJesus1]

Consider taking a look at Roy Clark and Joe Pass playing Hank Williams Songs. It's a great album. Maybe "Hey Good Lookin'" or "Cold Cold Heart" which I think you may have actually reacted to Hank Williams own version. They made some really good Jazzed up country with this project. The videos are from the studio sessions with "some" commentary from the musicians thrown in for good measure.

[@brucemoore9747]

Having the microphone in front of the video of the performers is really annoying.

[@Adiscretefirm]

Buck Trent is the inventor of the electric banjo and is still performing in his 80's.

[@jimfleming3975]

On Dolly Parton's original recordings of "I'll Always Love You" & "Jolene", Buck Trent played lead guitar.

[@YouT00ber]

Jolene is such a great song

[@oldsage1832]

I am in awe of musically talented people like Clark. LOL, I had trouble playing the recorder thing in grade school.

[@pgooddmd]

I wish I had the recorder that I played in school. I started to get pretty good, then you had to give it back.

[@vilstef6988]

In the Wikipedia article, Buck Trent is credited as the inventor of the electric banjo. He is a great instrumentalist who also plays ddobro, guitar and bass guitar. If you like string wizards, I can also recommend Joe Maphis who plays guitar, banjo, fiddle, dobro, mandolin and stand-up bass in about two minutes, while singing and not losing a beat! Search picking and a grinning or picking and singing. I've seen him do this on two old TV shows. Picking and singing was on the Jimmy Dean show and Joe changes his lyrics to fit the venue.

[@ibwonderful1]

There was not a stringed instrument that Mr. Clark could not play. He was truly one of the masters, one of the greats, a man that I wished I had taken the opportunity to see in concert when I had the chance. Listen to him play the 12 string guitar. Wow......just wow........

[@RedEyedPatriot]

It doesn't get any better than Roy Clark!!! Man was a beast. My late father's favorite 😎
