This album is not showing his lightning speed on most songs. They should have left "lightning" out of the title.
The rest are nothing special. Roy Clark is one fabulous guitarist, but this album does not do him justice. There are two or three songs which are worthy of the album title. I expected one hot tune after another, but most are nothing to get excited about and the arrangements are lacking as well. It was quite a disappointment.
What a gift. Yeah, there is always a treat out there if you look hard enough and ask yer elders. It's as good as finding those rare, early LP's of Glen Campbell doing nothing but picking a twelve string. Does anyone out there remember Roy's numerous guest appearances on the '70 TV Sitcom, "The Odd Couple". He could just melt the audience with that acoustic and make you forget you were supposed to laugh at Felix and Oscar. Yeah.that's another treat you need to seek out. Enjoy.
Got this for my dad for his birthday, and he loves it. No slow songs in the bunch.
That's right. Being a hard rock fan of Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, etc., I caught a portion of "Texas Twist" at friend's party and asked who the incredible guitarist was. When I was told "Roy Clark", I said "You mean.". The same goofy guy I saw on HEE-HAW as a kid. For anyone who appreciates guitar, any guitar, Roy Clark may be the best of time, and of all classifications.
