I met Roy Clark in the early 90's when I was working at the Bloomington, IN airport while in college. He was just super friendly. Great guy. Gave me a $100 tip for carrying his luggage from the plane to his bus. I tried to refuse it but he insisted. He told a few stories and was humble as could be. I told him I grew up watching Hee Haww with my Dad.

That’s a great story. He was such an accomplished guitar player.

I'll try and find a video of him doing some kind of dueling guitar thing. He was a FAR better guitarist than I ever thought until I saw that video. Turns out he was incredible.

I remember when I was around 5 (mid 70's), a country artist album cover of the singer on a boat holding up a fishing rod with a caught fish on the end. What was that?

NM, answered my own query: minus the rod :

Great stuff being posted, thank you all.
It's important to connect with your past at times in these crazy times.
