He was a big part of the legendary "wrecking crew" and played on or was involved in just about every major label hit that came out. And Roy Clark, what an absolutely talented musician who thoroughly enjoyed playing. I think Roy gets overlooked because he never really chased the spotlight or recorded music in hopes of commercial success. He really just genuinely loved to play.

George Harrison’s biggest guitar influence in his early days was Chet. That’s one thing that makes him unique as a rock guitarist. As to greatest guitarist, it depends what kind of guitarist. I’m not sure any of these guys could do what Leo Kotke could do, though he can’t do what they could do either. Or Carlos Montoya. Or Andres Segovia. Or Al Di Meola. Or John McLaughlin. Or Ralph Towner. Or Robert Fripp. Or any number of jazz players. You want a real trip, go find an instructional video (here on KZread) of Danny Gatton where he duplicates bluegrass banjo on a Telecaster - with a flat pick. If you’re looking at Hendrix, it’s not his chops that make him important, though that certainly helps; it’s his innovation. He changed the way things sounded. By the way, being able to play has nothing to do with being able to read. And, as a further note on this topic: Only in music are people proud of illiteracy. And there’s no excuse for it. It’s not like learning a language. Most musicians could learn the basics - I don’t mean get fluent, just learn the basics - in several hours if it took that long. On guitar reading is more difficult than on most instruments because you need to play a lot of notes simultaneously (like on piano) and because you can find the same note in several places on the necks , but there’s no reason for guitarists not to learn how to read a basic melody so they know what the head is.

The talent in this generation was phenomenal, to the point; we will never see the likes of it again, in music, acting and singing. Nothing comes close.

Glen tearing up a twelve string and Roy looking at his own hands like he can't believe what he's doing. Plus, this show was live. No room for error.

I was walking through the Nevada State Fair years ago and heard some music, stopped in and Roy Clark and Buck Owens had just started. Maybe 50 people were in the pavilion, so I walked in, sat down and heard some of the best banjo and guitar playing ever. What talent! Thanks for this video!

Two of the best talents of all time.

Two of the most naturally gifted musicians ever, may they rest in peace.

They may have been gifted, but, they practiced a helluva lot when they were young kids.

Two of the greatest guitars players that ever lived. And two of the nicest people, who was always generous with their time. It's funny how the band behind them were peeking around to watch them play. They knew they were in the presence of true greatness.

You're right, and let's not forget that you had to have darned good talent in your own right to earn a place in such bands as that (any band in the broadcasting business). So they know greatness when they see and hear it.

Roy looked and played great here.Always had that boyish grin and giddy way about him.🥰 R.I.P. sir. "Empty Arms Hotel."😊

Woah!!! Fantastic duet. Two of the best instrumentalists!

Roy was a strange cat. When he played along with another guitarist, he always tried to make it seem like he was trying really hard. Like he was struggling to keep up with the other guy. Just a form of modesty, It seems like. Roy could play that song in his sleep, yet look at him. Class act.

Glen playing a twelve-string makes it sound like there is an extra guitar. Roy is extraordinary. Love watching this.

You do realise there were three rhythm guitars in the background as well as a violin, & a pedal steel.

Two at the top of their game together. Unequaled American guitar geniuses.

Two phenomenal guitar pickers collaborating.

Holy crap! I don’t know what was more impressive, glen Campbell on the 12 string or the fact that both spent more time watching the other one play than they did watching their own playing. What a pair of talented guitar players. Those of us lucky enough to see the talent of country music on Hee Haw were truly blessed

Sadly America has evolved into a sh!thole. At least I got to witness the era of great music and bad ass cars.

One day Glen Campbell is playing rock with the Beach Boys on the beach & then it's country with Roy Clark. Genius for us oldies from the 60's.

Both these guys were unbelievable guitarists, some of the best in the world. Country did not really show just how good they really were.

That hug there at the end showing respect for each other’s talent and life long friendship. Two of the finest musicians that ever strapped on a guitar 🎸

When entertainers were just that, Talented and enjoyed entertaining.

It actually makes me sad that these two legends are gone. It makes me doubly sad to think that good family shows like Hee Haw and talented, clean entertainers like Campbell and Clark are long gone from a culture that desperately needs uplifting entertainment.

Two of the best guitarist to ever play. I've always been a rock n roll fan but these two are the best in any genre.

Glen Campbell still had it even towards the end of his life and Roy Clark, no words needed!

Glenn and Roy are legendary and deservedly so.

Gotta love that 12 string Ovation in the hands of GC. You never see these in the hands of musicians today.

Most musicians today dont have the time or patience to mess with 6 extra strings. Stringing and tuning them is a pain in the ass. There are lots of pedals that can mimic the 12 string sound, and even expand it. 12 string guitars are just a quaint curiosity now. I have one, it hasn't been out of the case in years. I never gig with it. They sound great, but are rarely used by anybody. The industry has moved on.

Two of the most talented people ever.

Van Halen one of the greatest guitar players ever ! Was once asked who do you think is the best guitar player in the world ? He said I dont know you would have to ask Roy Clark that question. And a lot of folks dont know, Glen Campbell early in his beginning, was the rhythem guitar player for the Beach Boys .RIP to both of the best !

And God created electric guitars and sent two angels down to earth to teach us how they should be played. And when we had learned, he recalled them to sit by his side and play for him forevermore.

When you talk about Hall of Fame American guitarists, Roy Clark and Glen Campbell are right at the very top of the list! StocktonRob

Video comes up on my feed which says: "Glen Campbell and Roy Clarke play "insert name of any song here" and I click. Flawless... just Flawless...!

It's easy to see that Roy, a wizard on the guitar, is totally impressed with Glens prowess/mastery.

They EARNED the right to pick n grin!! Wish I knew how to even play a tambourine!!

It doesn't take a genius to see these two gentlemen have so much talent. Would out play most high profile guitarist of today off the stage. That is a fact.

Two of my childhood guitar picking heroes right there.

Roy Clark lived to play guitar, and plenty of other string instruments. Just look at that mischievous smile he always had.

In the last stages of Glen's illness, his mind was gone,but he could still" play a guitar just like a ring in a bell"

Music is stored in a different part of the brain. It's why some stroke victims can't talk, but can still sing. It's why Glen could still play the guitar even if he didn't know where he was. I took a semester of German in college and I've forgotten nearly all of it, but I can still sing the German beer drinking songs I learned many decades ago. Music in the right brain is more lasting than the temporary left brain storage.

I can not stand when people don’t give such talent like Roy Clark the recognition that he deserves! So what if he was on Hee Haw!!! It was a funny and WHOLESOME program for the family to watch. Clark should not be embarrassed for being on that show. Roy, you just know yourself what you have accomplished and SCREW those people who tried to hold you back and/or not give you the proper recognition 💙🖤🩵🩷❤️

An iconic song, done justice by two great guitarists. Why, oh why don't we have music like this anymore?

A six shooter vs. a twelve shooter. Hands down, they both win, and they're both still standing. Amazing!

A fated duel between legends. It’s high noon.

Roy Clark was a master of any style of guitar, a pure unmatched master

When I was a kid watching tv in the ‘70s these guys were on practically every week, either on their own programs or as a guest on someone else’s variety show.Always entertaining.

These two greats kick ass on this song.Glen ripping on a friggin twelve string Ovation no less.

Roy Clark was handed a Balalaika in Russia, never having held one and after playing with the strings a few minutes played "Some Where my Love". And the audience went wild.

Roy clark is vastly underrated. Even as a young boy I recognized his musicianship

They are all having so much fun!! What extraordinary talent!!
