And to think he's playing slide with this kind of mastery and precision on a twelve string is mind blowing...the man's a beast, very underrated and in my opinion as a slide player, one of the best in the world.
Great cover of a song that many have done. This is one of my favorite! This guy is tremendous, only ran across him recently, glad I did! Thanks Mr Roy you da man
Spectacularly good. I hadn't seen Roy play before & the performance knocked me out. He had so much going on yet maintained a strong groove throughout. What a bag of licks!!!!
CRIMINALLY underrated slide/guitar player. I saw him live many times in the late 80's and it was jaw dropping every time. I have seen some of the best most famous blues/rock players of all time and Roy's show is one of the top 5 i have ever had the pleasure to witness....he is simply outstanding.
I have watched this video load's of times, recommended it to others many times, none better, fantastic entertainment thanks Roy, kind regards Pete over the pond 🤓
Mike Amira heard them all the ozzie is ok but roy is STILL THE MASTER OF SLIDE AND THATS HOW WHITE BOYS ROLL HAHA WE MASTER ANYTHING WE DO ITS OUR NATURE OUR SPECIES THAT RISE ABOVE COMMON MAN !!
Now those are some AMAZING musicians, loved the melody and the catchy riffs.Roy is one those musicians that are worth to see. Keep the good videos on youtube!
Holy Shit! Can't stop watchin' it over'n over again. Goes right into my heart & bones! Fantastic Music...Thanks for the Upload & share! Great Job! Greetz from Germany!
He played at the Hotel Alex Johnson in Rapid City, SD sometime around 1990, and I caught his solo act. I'd never heard of him. Didn't know what to expect. He was freakin' awesome. Asked us if we wanted to hear any particular song, and requested "Little Red Rooster." He smiled and nailed it.
Seen this great guitar player and his band in a very small venue in upstate New York. Very gracious man allowed me to the dressing room to get other band members autographs. Many years ago but I will never forget the memories
Roy is one of those guitar slingers that if you see him live, as you stand there watching him you keep saying to yourself "that can't be done on a guitar". Yet there you are watching!!!
TABS???? Good Lord man, he's all over that fret board like a freak'in machine. Talk about multi-tasking. He's singing, picking, fingering, and sliding on that guitar like he's ringing a bell. If Chuck Berry saw Roy first, Johnny B Goode would have never existed.
Really glad this showed up in my recommended section 👍😁! LOVE slide guitar 🎸🎶🎵.😊. Excellent performance by the way. Very nice 😎. Am hoping to learn slide in the near future 🎸.

derawket Me too! Check out my favorite blues artist who isnt well known. Its The Glen Kaiser Blues Band.
In Jesus name! Amen!
Roy's one of the most underrated slide guitar players ever ...
Who's underrating him?
He should be a household name.
Definitely impressive playing, that's for sure. Never heard of him until I did searches on the YT. So you may be onto something here. :-)
Guaranteed all the household names know very much who he is👍
and I was one of those ignoring him. until I saw this. Fantastic talent.
And to think he's playing slide with this kind of mastery and precision on a twelve string is mind blowing...the man's a beast, very underrated and in my opinion as a slide player, one of the best in the world.
I saw him live in a small club in Houston years ago. Roy had the joint rockin'. Great guitar player. Great show.
THE best.
What's truly amazing is so many folks don't know this man's Genius!!
It's senseless arguing who's the greatest player of any instrument. Just enjoy all the diversity that's out there. They're all great!
Spot on my friend.
Agreed 👍🎸🎶🎵😎!
True words. I dont know whos the best but im certain he is one of them :)
WATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES THAT I HAVE LOST COUNT. THAT LEFT HAND IS LIKE WATCHING A SPIDER ON A HOT PLATE!!!

Great cover of a song that many have done. This is one of my favorite! This guy is tremendous, only ran across him recently, glad I did! Thanks Mr Roy you da man
Roy, this is superb guitar playing and the band is tight. Watched this lots of times. Love it. Thanks 👍
My God, he was absolutely freaking out on that guitar. I've never heard slide guitar before and this is just mind blowing.
Be sure to watch Joanna Connor do her rendition of this song. Its way over the top - just wild!!
I love this guy, not sure how I came across him, but so glad that I did, love his slide!
Spectacularly good. I hadn't seen Roy play before & the performance knocked me out. He had so much going on yet maintained a strong groove throughout. What a bag of licks!!!!
This guy just blew my mind. I've been playing for 30 years, and I can't believe I have never heard of him before.
CRIMINALLY underrated slide/guitar player. I saw him live many times in the late 80's and it was jaw dropping every time.
I have seen some of the best most famous blues/rock players of all time and Roy's show is one of the top 5 i have ever had the pleasure to witness....he is simply outstanding.
That track gets the foot tapping and shivers up the spine. So so good.
Roy is sick on that guitar man. Always a pleasure listening to him and his unique style.
I have watched this video load's of times, recommended it to others many times, none better, fantastic entertainment thanks Roy, kind regards Pete over the pond 🤓
Just got back from throwing my guitar in the river
😂

It probably landed next to mine.
So disgusted I stole the neighbors too.
WHOLLY COW - That is just plum awesome !! Hope to hear more of this dude !!
i've watched/listened 100 times because it is the best. i simply can't believe it
Absolutely fantastic slide guitarists
such a great blues man.. the voice, the guitar skill, the presence, the feeling... hes got it all... amazing......
Keeping it real. Reminds me of the old blues Masters. That cat can play.
That was just amazing. Wonderful playing!!
Killer playing Roy! I can't believe I'm hearing this guy for the first time. Damn!
This is the coolest, most refreshing thing I have heard in such a long time! God I love it!
Same here! You have to hear Andrew Winton!!! Aussie, and man can he slide! especially listen to Fatty Ham Bone, awesome track
Mike Amira heard them all the ozzie is ok but roy is STILL THE MASTER OF SLIDE AND THATS HOW WHITE BOYS ROLL HAHA WE MASTER ANYTHING WE DO ITS OUR NATURE OUR SPECIES THAT RISE ABOVE COMMON MAN !!
Great song! Gorgeous guitar!
Now those are some AMAZING musicians, loved the melody and the catchy riffs.Roy is one those musicians that are worth to see. Keep the good videos on youtube!
Nobody can rock the joint like Roy! See him live if possible his show is spectacular and rocks! Rhythm & Blues like it was invented by Roy!
Holy Shit! Can't stop watchin' it over'n over again. Goes right into my heart & bones! Fantastic Music...Thanks for the Upload & share! Great Job! Greetz from Germany!
Seeing him live is amazing......
There are no words for how awesome this man's performance is
There are words to describe it but they haven’t been invented yet!
Came indifferent, leaving amazed and inspired. This guy and the rhythm section are brilliant!
UA-cam only needs one video featuring slide guitar - and this is it.
Just so cool sounding! Amazing tone, but absolutely one of a kind technique
Roy Rogers One of my all-time favorites. Damn good blues man
every time i hear this i am in awe wow this is the best ive ever heard thank god for ROY you are the best ive ever heard slide man ROY
He played at the Hotel Alex Johnson in Rapid City, SD sometime around 1990, and I caught his solo act. I'd never heard of him. Didn't know what to expect. He was freakin' awesome. Asked us if we wanted to hear any particular song, and requested "Little Red Rooster." He smiled and nailed it.
slide perfection the best ive ever heard
Derek trucks
me too...love it
Seen this great guitar player and his band in a very small venue in upstate New York. Very gracious man allowed me to the dressing room to get other band members autographs. Many years ago but I will never forget the memories
Seen Roy three times and in person it is just not believable how good he is.
Roy is one of those guitar slingers that if you see him live, as you stand there watching him you keep saying to yourself "that can't be done on a guitar". Yet there you are watching!!!
2019 and still killin’ it!
So great, a true master, I only recently came across him, just amazing
When the blues become yellows....and all the other colours....great work, Roy!
An absolute joy to listen to
Was going to ask for the TABS, but that's not going to help me play this. What a performance. Just Brilliant.
TABS???? Good Lord man, he's all over that fret board like a freak'in machine. Talk about multi-tasking. He's singing, picking, fingering, and sliding on that guitar like he's ringing a bell. If Chuck Berry saw Roy first, Johnny B Goode would have never existed.
That steel side is actually hot with the friction.
Hey man, I think I found some TABS for this. All together, the printout is about the size of the book "War & Peace."
hey, where did you find it?
Please share, I just need to see the basic idea, the rest will be improvisation obviously :)
Wonderful playing Roy.💝
I love it! I love it! I love it! Just kept me dancin'! Great music Roy!
Ed Michaels , one of the best drummers I ever played with . Nice job there Mr. Ed !
Thanks bro!
slide on a 12 string resonator-it can't get better-and vocals are wonderful
This guy doesn't get enough credit for how amazing this is. Love it
Yup.
Way to go gentlemen! That’s how u play it... thank u....I needed that.
Awesome rendition. My man on the drums is right on. I diggin that 12 strng. Lot of sound for three guys.
I just hope that I can have a small portion of this talent one day.
That has got to be the finest slide I've ever heard. Sure can't sit still at all.
his singing is great. His guitar playing is great. Such an awesome version of walkin blues
OMG! Loved everything 12 string. first time see this Too Great!
The best slide man ever,,,
I was walking down the street when this song start to play on my headphones and man, it put me on a good mood!

That Guitar riff just makes that song great
Olha eu aqui novamente. Continuo assistindo e me maravilhando com esse vídeo. Rogers é um virtuose magnífico.
Awesome. No words can describe what i saw. A real genius.
JUST FOUND MY NEW FAVE SONG OF THE WEEK
This makes me smile every time I watch this its so good, I need to learn this version of the song on guitar
what a great combination of a great voice and slide playin
Wow, great combo, great voice, great guitar....
This guy is serious..... Love it!
Seen Roy a few times back in the late 80's at a club in Dearborn called Sully's. He just always blew the doors off the place.
Thanks, great memories of playing Sully's in Dearborn with Roy!
A miracle of guitar playing.
Great slide work and a great blues feel....not many can boast both
Damn fine playin son.
"Come down hea, n sing into this here can, We gonna make ya a star!"......
THIS MAN IS A GENIUS!!!!
Isn't this guy just something else? Fantastic!
Absolutely wonderful!
awesome.
How does anyone play like that??? My fingers can't think that fast!! Nice job Roy!!
+Jeff Kushner Muscle memory, baby!
Yup, you are correct Dinko. And my youth was totally mis-spent imbibing illegal substances. I could have been practicing!
Jeff Kushner Same here.
Been using the slide on my 12 stringer and there is something so magical about it.
But a 12 string res, that is a whole new realm of magical.
the outro to this song is just straight outta this world
kick ass pure slide perfection
Never seen this in guitar before n from England but love it
Really glad this showed up in my recommended section 👍😁! LOVE slide guitar 🎸🎶🎵.😊. Excellent performance by the way. Very nice 😎. Am hoping to learn slide in the near future 🎸.
Roy Rogers ... YOU ARE FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION!!! AMAZING!!!
Has anyone heard the shortest blues song ever? "Well I didn't wake up this morning" the end.
The Neil Innes version goes. "Well I woke up this mornin'". I think it's on something Monty Python. Check him out, lotsa good stuff.
I did. Composed it and played it myself. Still alive. :-)
LMAO thanks for that!
Mountain Reiver Thats to crazy!
That's the best musician joke ever
Excelente guitarrista de blues sureño!!!
He's great! I worked with him at Cincy Blues Fest in 2000 and he also played thru a Leslie 122!!!!!
best slide playing ive ever heard true GREATNESS
a 12-string resonator? never saw this before
Ruud, check this one out /watch?v=kXY6rsxB1Xg
It's most likely custom made
@@gavinhdk9175 They used to make kits for them a couple of years back.
12 string dobro. THERE is a name for just that resonating guitar you know
Never seen it before too, I'm gonna build one for meself
he makes it look so easy, but this playing is really out of this world.. just keeps going and going with playing a note too much or too little :o
Gotta hear this EVERY WEEK !!! Too good !!!!
These guys are entertaining in a real professional way.awsome
if that doesn't get your toes tapping ... your fukin dead ...
+Duane Mac Leod - An if you are dead this will get your toes back tapping again ....
+Duane Mac Leod Yes it does. Some solid sliding there.
+Duane Mac Leod There's a legend that says if you stop tapping your toes they'll cut them off and give them to someone an extra pair if they run out of toes to tap
lol great legend.
Big time
awsome foot stompin scalp crawlin damn good
Holy crap! Just gave me chills... Checked Roy's site. It's a shame he never comes to the east coast much. Simply amazing!
This guy's skill puts a grin on my face every time.
Couldn’t agree more brother !
I am 1 Million of the 2.6 million views.
Austimatic me too! As soon as it ends, I start it over again..
You are Legion
