      that's because the song was supposed to represent a time warp (hence the name of the song). It's probably a very technical piece, but I'm not a huge fan of it either.

    When I was a kid I'd take days off school and go into town and drool over guitars at Harry Landis the one that stuck in my mind is the Pink Paisley Telecaster. I'm 70 now and I've had a few Telecasters over the years but the one I love the most is my COMMEMORATIVE (May 1993) G&L ASAT

    Rory Hoffman - OMG. That's some of the cleanest fast picking I've ever heard. I wonder if that technique makes it easier or harder. I need to look into him more.

    Saying any one of these players is better than the rest is like picking out which one of several perfect, 50 carat diamonds is better. They are all perfect and 50 carat. Just like these players. Just enjoy them, and be thankful that there are players like this for us all to enjoy.

    Awesome players, but for me, the best part seeing Marty Stewart playing Clarence White's old B-bender tele, then Clarence playing the same exact guitar in the next clip. Oooo Chills.

    Great collection of some truly accomplished and diverse players. I will have to say that the best of the bunch hands-down are Vince Gill and Albert Lee. While some may dazzle with their speed and precision, Vince and Albert standout because their phrasing is so inventive in how it always complements the song.

      Vince was the first guy to turn me on to chicken pickin and the best part is he just looks like he was grilling steaks at his upper middle class home in Eden Prairie with the other neighborhood dads.

    Glen Campbell was awesome. I saw him, Roy Clark, Jerry Reed, Johnny Cash and some others at the Indiana State Fair one year...musta been 1972 but coulda been before or after. Talk about some guitar pickin goin on! Carl Perkins was playing for Johnny and at one point Roy and Jerry were on stage together trading licks. But just like in this video collection, Glen shined above the rest. What a player! All these folks are great though...music is not a competition...all is subjective.

      I think there’s a part 2 to this video. I agree though, if Roy Clark isn’t included on the second video it would be an injustice.
