RIP Roy Clark, Nov 15, 2018
Roy Clark was a consummate musician and some would say an under-rated guitar player. If you take a look around at some of the many videos out there you’ll quickly see that Clark was one of the best pickers out there.
It was interesting that just a week or so ago I had been prompted by something I read or saw online and had been reading and watching some videos about Mr Clark. Then just a few days later, Nov 15, 2018, he passed away. So there has been a lot of in memoriam articles and videos out there. Most of them pretty predictable songs and performances.
Well, I came across this awesome video and just had to put it out there. It’s from Hee Haw, which Roy Clark was a co-host of for many years, in 1979. It features Clark and Gatemouth Brown playing “Take The A Train.” Gatemouth brown y’all! On Hee Haw in 1979!! Enjoy
Turns out there are several more Roy Clark and Gatemouth Brown videos to take a look at.
