Hey man, now yer moving in the right direction! Roy Clark was AWESOME on many instruments.... And a pretty funny dude, too... You said this vid was too short.... There are young guitarists out today who are in the same league (i don't mind being flamed for saying it) that are worth a listen.... BILLY STRINGS is one of the top guitarists out on the current scene.... Here are a coupla vid's that are NOT too short by any means: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sICbeqqGl6Z_gZY kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHvQq4aVh8qXnpo And this classic: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHeoi4KgqdeqotU BTW, he's only about 19 in this last vid.......

Anyone notice he is playing a 12-string guitar? He was a country/wester sing with a great sense of humor. He had enormous talent.

Roy Clark played many instruments. All of them well. He once said if you play an instrument, honor it. Yes he sang

I saw him in concert at a casino before he passed away. He did an awesome concert and he had just had hip surgery.You should play Malaguena. He was just a good entertainer. He also sang.

The man could the banjo, ukulele, acoustic guitar and electric guitar. He is one of the greatest guitar players of all time. And he can improvise more so than most.
