1987 Roy Clark LIVE The Drifter's Polka

[Blues353]

Roy is consistently awesome. I've never heard a bad note, missed string or chord from this man during any live performance. Intimidatingly perfect.

[87sherwood]

I didn't know a Les Paul could sound like that. i don't know if i'll ever look at them the same. Great playing though!

steve morse of the dixie dreggs plays this song and  calls it" the bash"

[therebel1960]

Every bit as crisp and clean as on his album "The Lightning Fingers of Roy Clark", just several years later!

[kainthornn]

Roy Clark is one of the true original shredders. When you can shred with little or no overdrive that speaks volumes of your ability.

[satchbooggy]

i slowed this song down 1/2 speed on a riff decoder and still couldnt make a damn bit of sense out of it haha

[sirlonghair]

simply the best guitar player I can think of sean him live do maleguana with 2 broken strings and it dident matter

[trashman642002]

My uncle, Alvin Alexander wrote Drifter's Polka.

@mimosa1317

This is a wonderful tune! He has certainly given all of us "mere human" guitarists (unlike Roy Clark!) something to which to aspire!

[TYSTER95bears]

[TEXASSURFDONKEY]

[tyoonz]

What a freak!! The guy is a machine! Amazing! By the way, NelnetDude, if you didn't know, this tune is called "The Drifter's Polka." And NOBODY does it like Mr. Clark!

[ricaard]

Roy rules!
