Ricky Skaggs Remarks On The Passing of Guy Clark

Upon hearing about the passing of Guy Clark, Ricky Skaggs said, "Guy Clark was one of the greatest Texas singer/songwriters to ever come out of that state.

Rest in peace Guy!!" Our sympathy and prayers go out to the family of Guy Clark during this time.
