I discovered Roy Clark 10 minutes ago and I had to stop the video at a minute 45 because I couldn't handle it anymore... This bro ain't right. .. I have goosebumps and chills after listening to that. What's even crazier is I know he's doing it on a freaking acoustic guitar.....
I feel ashamed to admit this. I am. 30 years old And I've always been raised with classic and hard rock. I've always heard of all the greates guitar players. Jimi Hendrix Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen, etc. And I've heard the name Jeff Beck, , mentioned my other rockers a lot. I just found out about Roy Clark a few minutes ago, And I have to say after watching less than a minute of his videos. I believe this individual sold his soul to the devil for this kind of skill and talent. It does feel out of this world if I must admit. And almost unnatural if I say that. I was actually intimidated by listening to his music. Let's see how far this rabbit hole goes.
Who is here and remembers their parents watching Hee Haw but thought we were too good for that stuff because we liked the Rolling Stones and stuff like that now we miss our parents don't we
Shoot I was 4 and 5 and absolutely hated Lawrence Welk so by the time Hee Haw came on next I was in heaven watch Buck and Roy, all the girls, and I knew who Johnny Cash and Crystal Gayle were before kindergarten. In high school we all loved REM, the Clash, and Pixies but they made fun of me for listening to the Highwaymen. I just told them they didn't get it.
I was a young rock guitarist back in 78 when my uncle took me to see Roy at the grand ole opry. I was blown away and started studying bluegrass. I couldn’t believe how bad I was when I thought I was great. I have learned much since then.
One of the best!!!!
I just swallowed my gum! And i didn't even have any.
He made that guitar his bitch
JFC…😮
If you pause the video, his hand reappears. Roy was amazing.
Dude is Cracked.
He must have loved Django. Fantastic.
man when he's wacking it i bet he starts fires
Well damn - I guess he played that for himself.
Absolutely amazing.
Holy shit
This man was an incredible guitarist. Strangely, not really much known in the classical music 'crowd'
Roy Clark is the best
Poor Roy just wasn’t cool, nor sensual like the rockers. Hee Haw sucked and he was one of “them”
It’s impressive it just doesn’t sound appealing to me. Unless I was cos playing as a matador or some shit idk. Just me tho
I hope the devil gave him back his soul, he deserves it back!

Absolutely face melting. This man was a freak of nature
My favorite guitar players growing up were Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page etc, Wow can Roy Clark play, I’m glad I finally noticed Him 🎶🎸😵💫
An interview with Jimi Hendrix he was asked what it felt like to be the best guitarist and Jimi said "i dont know, ask Roy Clark"
There's a reason why EVH wanted to take lessons from him.
Starts djenting at 2:18 😂
Roy had the fasted right-hand wrist in the business. He wasn't the greatest at fingering, but at the percussive, he couldn't be beat.
Heavy metal minus electricity.
Wait til yall hear about paco de lucia 😂 lol
Those strings held on for dear life just so they could hear the end
Those triplets good GAWD
Ah, flamenco. Really well played. Didn't expect that from a country player. The techniques you use are quite different.
I honestly had no idea that he was this good! Wow!!!
“You can’t shred with an acoustic guitar” Roy Clark: hold my ketchup
This man would have been an awesome metal guitarist.
Absolute Legend 🙌🙌🙌
Had to be smoke coming off that instrument. What a absolute beatdown on that guitar.
Humanity's finest.
No joke! Who would have known? Reminds me of Tchavolo Schmidt.
NO, BODY WILL EVER BE BETTER THAN THE ONE AND ONLY MR.ROY CLARK...😂❤
Totally epic
Unfukenreal. Wow 😳
What the
Is he playing "Malaguena"? If he is he plays unbelievably. Fantastic
Oh yeah. Plays a mean, mean banjo too.

um what!!!
Damn . . .
Anyone know whats the name of the song he played? Or was it just free style?
Malaguena. This one is flamenco and some people play it much slower. There is a mariachi song called Malaguena too. (Sometimes people are confused.)
Eddie Shaver,Glen Campbell,Jerry Reed +Roy Clark are in another league of playing not matter what type they played!!
Ive just found out about Roy Clark today at 54yo. Dec 6th 2024. Wow! Hes next level genius.

jesus titty fuckin christ this man can play
Wow Amazing.
