My Dad is back there playing bass. He was Roy's bandleader and business manager for 20 years and they remained close friends for life. I can tell you that Roy practiced constantly. For instance, when he and his wife would join us for holiday meals, he'd bring a guitar. He'd go find a chair and just start practicing. He could carry on conversations while practicing. He was that dedicated to making sure his audience got what they were expecting. He never took a day off. It meant the world to him to be his absolute best. Thanks for sharing.

His band even stuck together for awhile after Chris' death, and his son was singing. That band could take off and play about any type of music, and they all acted like they were enjoying every moment. Chris and his band kept everyone rocking, and there were no special effects, with the exception of a mechanical bull. Just a high charged musical night outside under the stars. They have the best rendition of "Life is a Highway" in my opinion, along with a wonderful selection of other rock, country, cowboy, humorous, and ballad type songs . It was such a wonderful evening that was over much too fast.

"Bless his/her/your heart" is a southern thing. It can be used as a salutation, as Roy used it, but is most often used at the end of a statement to or about someone as an expression of empathy. For example, somebody might say, "Pete's just lost his job, bless his heart." What southerners also understand is that it can be used kind of disingenuously to mask an insult, and there is a joke down here in the deep south that you can say anything about somebody and it's okay as long as you add "bless his heart" to the end of it. So, the reply to the above statement might be, "Not surprised. Pete's never done a hard day's work in his life, bless his heart." See, that was mean, but it's okay, because they added "bless his heart." 😉

BLESS YOUR HEART!! It's a Southern phrase, with multiple meanings. If someone says "I lost my job or my pet died" you reply I'm so sorry, bless your heart. Someone does something stupid you insult them and add Bless Your Heart, so it doesn't sound like an insult. If someone offends or disrespects you, you say "Are you having a bad day? Well Bless Your Heart". Trust me you will know the difference by the voice inflections! Great reaction young man! Hello from Texas 🤠

I think Roy felt extremely lucky to have had so much success (well deserved) and it kept him humble and from taking himself too seriously. He loved to entertain and clown around to garner a smile. I knew him from his time on "Hee Haw" and he always comes across as a really good hearted guy. Gone but never forgotten.

Roy not only had skills, but he was a very kind soul. I will never forget him saying to me, (while I was slapping the bass before the Merv Griffin show), "Where did you learn all them country licks boy". He was sharp, funny, and always uplifting. Loved him.

Roy Clark used heavy gauge strings with high action. As a guitar player myself, I use light gauge strings with low action. His setup would have killed me. How he played like that, I'll never know, but he was great. He played many other instruments too. He was an amazing talent.

I hate trying to play on a guitar with a high action on it. I play electric, and a completely different genre. I noticed many of the same techniques implemented though. Ie, the tremelo picking is used in a lot of metal music. I bet he could've played that kind of stuff easily though. (tapping, sweep picking, and things like that). Dude was way ahead of his time.

Roy also liked to be comedic. Hee Haw had him play Dueling Banjos a couple of times, usually with a healthy dose of humor mixed in. On another note, Ghost Riders In The Sky has been covered by a multitude of singers. It's probably one of the most iconic CW songs. A very early recording was done by The Sons Of The Pioneers (b/w, excellent version). Johnny Cash did a famous cover also. For a more modern twist, Geoff Castellucci sang it a capella and layered himself.

Even though I was familiar with Roy Clark before because my dad was an avid country fan. I saw Roy Clark alive at my elementary school. Believe it or not, he used to be part of a group that traveled around and put on a marionette show. And after the show he entertained us by playing a banjo, and a fiddle. The cool part, though was when he was playing the fiddle, he played it, using a coat hanger as a bow and a baby bottle as a bow and was continually making jokes. This would’ve been around 1964 or 1965. But I still remember it.
