Search - Roy Clark, Gatemouth Brown :: Makin Music

My Recollection of this album

"I first heard these two master guitarists when they were promoting the album on the Tonight Show in the 1979. It is my recollection that Brown had financial difficulties at the time. Clark was the highest paid performer in country music, and was a fan of Brown. In effort to help out Brown, he cut this album. The result was one of the hottest albums you ever would want to hear. There is no other word to describe this album but Jumping! Country Swing meets Delta Blues! For any fan of this type of music or a fan of fine guitar playing in general... this is a must. (For another great album and another demonstration of Roy Clarks versatility check out "Roy Clark & Joe Pass Play Hank Williams")"

"This unknown gem is truly a musical treat.These two artists take us through a musical buffet that includes country,swing and blues.It is a shame this masterpiece has never recieved the recognition it deserves.Listen to this once and you'll be hooked!"

Its the best of all Gatemouth's recordings!

"Very few people, if anyone, would think a C/W star like Roy Clark and a bluesman like Gatemouth Brown would get together in Tulsa, OK, make an album of such great quaility yet be so diverse in their music genres. If you like a mixture of Texas and Delta Blues with just a bit of Western swing thrown in, this is the best of the best."
