  • I'll take Chet Atkins version over all of them

  • Glenn Campbill, like Jerry Reed, were also masters of the guitar... but the boss for this song has to be Mason WIlliams and the instrumentation backing him up didn't hurt either... but solo he is also brilliant.

  • Some one don't know the difference lol

  • Comment removed

  • Hey, uploader. Fix the damn title. This is Glenn Campbell playing that. Jerk. Fix it.

  • In the 60&70s while we all worshiped hendrix,clapton,gilmour,hell even eddie van halen...roy clark ,glen campbell.and jerry reed were doing amazing things on guitar!!!so underated these guys were!!

  • why is roy on here, this is Glenn?

  • The only problem is that's not Roy Clark, that's Glenn Campbell. It's a picture of Roy but the music and the voice at the beginning are Glenn.

  • @MrMZaccone You totally called it. The announcer even says "Glenn"

  • @imjeffman It's not like it should have been a mystery to anybody.

  • Hell yea...Loved Roy as a kid when dad had Hee Haw on. If it had strings Roy could play it.

  • Not bad.  Is he playing it in Branson? :)

  • wooow! pretty good!

  • stafford does a killer (and fast) version of classical gas too - but yes, this is glen. kinda sounds like stafford talking though ... funny

  • This is glen Campbell playing this, not Roy as others have said. It's a masterful piece.

  • this aint roy clark playing this. this is jim stafford. but either way they are both good

  • @tommysbabes76 Glenn Campbell.

  • Awesome!!  And just when I thought I had all the versions of this song on my Classical Gas playlist...this is great, and gladly added!!! Thanx a million for posting it!

  • golfbuddy... I have the DVD of Glenn Campbell, and yes it is Glen Campbell playing this song (Not Roy Clark) BUT... It is also Glen Campbell who is saying to himself to play it right, Not your classmate Jim Stfford. Like I said, I have the DVD and Glen Campbell is saying it.. no one else is talking for him. He's making a little joke hoping that he doesn't mess up playing this song.

  • the Guiness add is Banjo ? search

    Classical Gas by Roy Clark Band Banjo Pickin'

    its a world off better

  • I love Roy Clark but if you listen to the intro that is a former high school classmate of mine, JIM STAFFORD saying "GLEN - PLAY IT RIGHT" so this version is GLEN CAMPBELL playing on a classical guitar.  Roy Clark mostly plays this on Electric Guitar although he is most capable on anything with strings on it!!

  • @golfbuddy45 Yes, you're correct, this is Glenn's version, not Roy's. Glenn is the only other person I can even stand playing it other than Mason of course.

  • wher can u find the version with the guinness ad video?

  • anyone know where i can find the guiness ad version of this???? This isn't bad but guiness ad is amazing

  • this is the guinness ad version

  • @pdowning1 It's not, the guinness ad is played on banjo!

  • @macionractaigh is right. Nice, but the banjo is what makes th eguiness version so appealing

  • @Seanyboyh it's gerry o'connor's version

  • cool dude cheers

  • I'm surprised Tommy Emmanuel hasn't popped up in the related videos. Check it out if you like this tune.

  • I don't normally like versions with backing musicians, but this is just so well done.
