Grammy winner and co-host of 'Hee Haw' Roy Clark dies at the age of 85
He was one of the world’s finest multi-instrumentalists, and one of the first cross-over artists to land singles on both the pop and country charts
Grammy, CMA and AMC award winner Roy Clark died today at the age of 85 from complications due to pneumonia at his home in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The legendary 'Superpicker' artiste's success can be summed up in one word — sincerity. He was one of the world’s finest multi-instrumentalists, and one of the first cross-over artists to land singles on both the pop and country charts. He was the pioneer who turned Branson, Missouri, into the live music capital of the world (the Ozark town today boasts more seats than Broadway). And, his talents turned 'Hee Haw' into the longest-running syndicated show in television history.
