Jul 26, 2008 - Fuck you Joe Maphis, you're too good.

jrybiski Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Absolutely speechless! I wonder if Joe Maphis and Roy Smeck ever met up? Probably not as that would have warped the time-space continuum.

Jul 26, 2008 - I love the Guitar Hero quote!This guy was like some cybergenic Hillbilly music Terminator fucker...unbelievable.Roy Clark is a Hell of a talent also but Maphis speed and flawless technique is mind-blowing. He never even misses a lick...and looks like hes bird watching or waiting on a bus. Totally effortless!!How in Hell do you get that good?Makes you want to just quit playing altogether.

Jul 26, 2008 - les"guitars heros" des 70s sont au bac a sable a cote des guitaristes des 40s et 50s...

65stratplayer Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Although to me Joe's talent was absolutely extra ordinary,I can't understand why his fame didn't rise above some of the other well known country guitarists? No doubt he could out-play most of his rivals.

tradbluegrass Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - notice he can't play three finger scruggs style on his banjo.....philistine.

steby123 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Philistine indeed it' a tenor banjo not a five string!

Jul 26, 2008 - i swear I'm living in the wrong time. Beats the consumerist propaganda sludge we're force fed now I.E. Entertainment.

Jul 26, 2008 - I know people that good, and all they do is play. Eat, sleep, and play. That's how you get that good, assuming you were also born with prodigious talent.

gwyn223 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I agree with you.... wrong time for alot of us

ChristerDahlback Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Well, so gooooooood, This is music and rock n roll from the 40-50s

gamster68 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Mastercollector try Raucous records or Bim Bam records websites foe Joe Maphis material.

gretscher Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - So would you say that country music and hillbilly came out of the roots of Celtic music? The Irish came over here in the 1860s and brought over their Celtic music and fiddles and it evolved into this? I love this music by the way.

captaintanuki Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Thanks barbillafonic ! Pure magic ! I never heard of Joe Maphis until today !
