Thanks Roy Clark !! bet you don't have anyone else giving him credit.

I remember watching Hee Haw when I was a kid. Roy Clark was a monster. A guitar player's guitar player. I remember in high school, my girlfriend saw him somewhere, for whatever reason...she didn't like country but came away and told me how unbelievable he was.

For those that haven't tried Roy > Roy Clark Under the Double Eagle

I think I mentioned it before in this thread but I saw BB King on Austin City Limits and Led Zep-Song Remains the Same in the same week and decided that I had to play guitar. Worked out a deal with my dad and had a Les Paul by summer's end.
