Roy Rogers - Terraplane Blues

Roy Rogers playing Terraplane Blues live at Sierra Center Stage 2001

[@Tomnotbo]

My second divorce took away a lifetime love of music, centered on the blues. One night at the foot of a small stage in Knoxville Tn, Roy gave it back to me. I muscled my way into the small room after the show and told him. He said "that's why I play". I am eternally grateful.

[@carolynoverton5018]

No one . . . and I mean no one on God's earth plays slide guitar like Roy Rogers. He is a king in his own realm.

[@1blastman]

I would love to see Roy and Sonny Landreth jam together - two of our greatest living slide masters feeding off each other. Then throw in Ry Cooder for an encore.

[@logangrider6039]

I'd like to see him with Derick Trucks​@@1blastman

[@1blastman]

Thumbs up if you would like to see Roy and Sonny Landreth jam together on slide guitars. That's my slide fantasy.

[@1blastman]

Get enough thumbs up and it just might happen at a festival.

[@skynrdpikr]

THAT would be AWESOME!!! ... Get Derrick Trucks in on the act? And THAT would be REALLY AWESOME !!! 🤠

[@TheDrummer51]

There's a pretty good duet with Roy and Bonnie Raitt called "Gnawin' on it".

[@1blastman]

@@TheDrummer51 Yeah and lets get Ry Cooder out for an encore.

[@TheBCBuddy]

and throw Colin Linden in the mix! kzbin.info/www/bejne/goPSqZ2fl5VlpM0

[@patricianoud7096]

Absolutely the definition of a great player - the folks can hardly dance! They have to keep watching him - they can't believe what they hear!

[@Crackers2549]

Terraplane Blues.... Robert Johnson telling his story about his woman through an Essex Terraplane automobile... He's gonna "get down in that connection"... LOL... Great song and Roy does it proud!

[@HikeColorado]

Wow, this is outstanding! Can’t believe I’ve not heard of him before.

[@onepoundpull]

And that, boys and girls, is how a slide guitar is played!

[@jtp9805]

Great performance, great audience. Roy is one of the greatest slide players of all time.

[@JRschnable33]

I was BLESSED to see him with Norton Buffalo twice! Both Times unforgettable.......

[@BluesTramp]

How can anyone criticize this master...he's got to be in the top ten slide men in the world....

[@HaroldFlood15]

Oh yeah

[@HaroldFlood15]

Hey Blues,Fantastic page & vibes my friend

[@zoso1980]

Playing is great. I don't like the packaging. He invokes the masters and legends, but contemporizes the hell out of it. It's like traditional acoustic blues repackaged minus the soul, and add the classic rock audience chasing.

[@edouglaspratt]

"How can anyone criticize...?" Couldn't agree more, Tramp. This man's a Master disciple of the genius, his Muse, Robert Johnson. At the risk of sounding like I'm criticizing, I do have a preference for a more natural tone, maybe with a bit of gritty gain, so, "Roy, please lose the chorus,...you too, Taj." -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA

[@SuperGaleford]

Probably cuz retards wanna say he just mimics the old masters. To that I say, wrong, morons, he pays homage to them then FAR exceeds what those old timers even thought was possible

[@kjetilnybakk9088]

After having seen this clip like 20 times I finally noticed the stick master in the background. That is some tight drumming. Masterfull!

[@Heisenbrick]

He is great and that kit has such a good sound!

[@johnandre3521]

just glad this guy is still alive and well,long life to him and Bonnie Rait too.

[@harrybendelow714]

Many play on the guitar but this man actually plays the guitar. Wonderful music that is within an historical tradition but with endless variation. I am really impressed and believe me it takes a lot to impress me. Michael Arch

[@marceldegross15]

Jon dough, it's an interpretation of a song by Robert Johnson, a man who Roy has a great reverence and respect for. It's also a showcase of a gifted American contemporary blues musician. Muddy waters created R & R by plugging in and playing the blues electrified. Being a blues man myself I still get chills when I watch this video. And let's be completely honest here jon, how many people do you know who can play the guitar like Roy? I guarantee you, if Robert Johnson had lived long enough he would have plugged in too. Do you see anyone in that crowd that isn't having fun, and for me that's what listening and playing music has meant for me, fun. I'd like to see you toss of this ditty as proficiently as Roy. Fat chance I'd say.

[@musiclover9361]

I read somewhere that before he died, Robert was experimenting with an early electric guitar.

[@alansmith7313]

He can play the guitar just like ringing a bell

[@SKYTROOPER11B]

I've seen musicians since 1962 and this one of the finest!

[@regisgoat]

Saw him last night, 16 years after this. He still can do this and more.

[@victorsvideos27]

I love all your stuff Roy. Thank you for such dedication to your craft, and for all the entertainment you’ve provided to millions of us!

[@7santarick]

Used to see this guy like 20 years ago in a little club in Dearborn Mich. He's good, real good

[@michaelpond6386]

Saw Roy a few years back in Portland , that guy can play. Derrick Trucks, John Hammond, and a few other slide players in his league. His Terraplane Blues with John Lee Hooker is one of my favorites. Roy’s guitars are really interesting machines too

[@brucekugler5164]

Carrying on a long tradition with his own soul attached.

[@heronguerra2248]

Roy is absolutely # 1 slide blues player in my book. He is sooo crazy good; unbelievable; and I've heard most of them. No one comes close to his rythm and the feeling with which he plays!

[@ShaneBluesRI]

Beautiful to see the blues alive and thriving.Roy's a beast!!!!

[@jasondejong3062]

I’ve done it, I’ve officially found the most underrated group on the planet🤯

[@davidcox7578]

...And he Sings....wowwwww! Best was when he did this with Norton, RIP

[@MLFANTZZ]

Beautiful combination of fingers and slide. Integrated broadcasting !!!!

[@slamtilt01]

He hardly needs a band. You could take them away and give them a cup of tea each and the music would still be freakin awesome.

[@TheDiscographer]

You can call Roy Rogers whatever you want, he will always be an ACE - A GUITAR MASTER - A SLIDE WIZZARD - like it or not. Hope to see him again soon in Copenhagen. He is amazing. The best around these days. René Denmark

[@wildeman1253]

Oh man! Killer...... This guy was a HUGE influence on me to even play guitar. More people need to know bout him.

[@michaelstanley4698]

Duane Allman would have loved jamming along!

[@IamtheActionman]

Simply astonishing Amazing player to put it mildly Wow

[@jimdandy3573]

Roy what can I say genius what and on believable musicians man I'm humbled

[@Steve-i9t]

How could I not know who this guy was? I thought I knew blues. Heard him on Bluesville a week ago. I thought, "RR was an old country star -- didn't know he did blues"

[@algeebop]

Wonderful guitar work. Really wonderful.

[@pak47man]

So good I just have to smile every time I play this clip!

[@leswagstaff4908]

The Lord touched his brow for sure...

[@cheryleaton5333]

Brilliant artist. Phenomenal interpretation!

[@katsuyukisakata]

Best slide guitar player !

[@deaniemberry]

I have to see this Roy Rogers in person someday, what a show it would be! Come to Texas, Okla, or Arkansas, I'll drive.

[@terrylusk9879]

Okay this guy Straight Up Entertainment you cannot help but want to Watch💪💪💪💪 and wish you were him

[@blairjones8231]

Brilliant and the bass player is great as well!

[@kriswright1022]

Small venue, hot blues guitar, dancing in the isle, that’s heaven right there!

[@Fuzzypuppy357]

Roy Rodgers is the MASTER of cross-rhythmic attack! Love to see him LIVE because his style doesn't come thru on these Utoob vids...His compositions sound like two guitars most of the time! Lovin' your blooz Roy~!

[@TheWatersandwich]

Jeeze this looks like possibly the most fun show of all time

[@carmenhorn1620]

" ...as he finished the live show it appeared that each hand had 20 fingers, each arm had 10 hands, and each shoulder had 10 arms. The person behind me yelled 'I didn't know a human could do THAT' "- from an article and interview and review by Robert Horn

[@volkerarndt]

In 1987 I'd met Roy Rogers in Caspar Inn (CA 95420) and I adviced him to plan a tour through Germany. He said, it could be a good idea, but he hadn't yet tought about it. More than 20 years later I read, that he really made a tour through Europe include Germany a few years after I had spoken with Roy in California. Unfortunately I'd missed him here in my native country, but I can watch and listen to him at youtube = still amazing, he's a great guitarist and a pleasant personable guy.

[@johncorlett2683]

Impressive.A Joy to watch.

[@chuckochs]

Smokin' !

[@LarryAllen-u7c]

[@HikeColorado]

Would love for Roy to come to the Soiled Dove Underground in Denver 👍

[@attygarland6909]

Well, still don't know if he is THE greatest slide player, but have to admit I have never seen anyone be able to pick non-slide notes like that with the slide still on one of his fingers .. not even Thorogood or Delbert Mc.'s guitarist .. wow .. 🙃

[@donniemaxwell1929]

The man has some awesome chops....

[@paullevine1813]

Robert Johnson turnin' over in his grave, he got that guitar down but Johnsons voice is incomparable, can't compete with him fuck that devil stories, just envious of a so called unknown to rise to his level.
