    Also one of my favorite country music icons. He is best known for his lightning guitar and banjo picking.

    Here is one I hope you will all like: Dueling Banjos

    I can hear this song being played somewhere in the cosmos with his friend Glen.

    Two of the best, both will be missed.

    Sad to see him go. His song "Yesterday When I Was Young" is one of my favorites of all time. I always had a personal identification with the song about wasted, mis-spent youth.....

    An interesting fact about Roy. He never had a #1 hit with his singing. I believe his rendition of "Thank God & Greyhound Your Gone" and "Yesterday When I Was Young" were his top two hits.

    Thanks again for giving us more of Roy Clark. You got a sequence of videos that show much of Roy's good stuff.

    You brightened up my Saturday Morning. He makes over 200 beats per minute look so easy.
