From the YouTube clip "Carl Jackson Sings All That's Left For Me".
Ralph Emery:
Now then... uh, are we ready for this kid... why is it... I guess that I'm just gettin' older, everybody is a kid.
Carl Jackson (barely audible off mic)
Yes, we appreciate that!
Emery (laughs)
I introduced this next young gentleman when he was 9 years old at Terrytown a Country Music Park owned by Gordon Terry. Right?
Jackson (off mic)
That's right!
Emery:
And for years he has been Glen Campbell's banjo player and uh, he's a marvelous musician and I wish that you would welcome a grown up version of Carl Jackson!
Carl Jackson sings and plays acoustic guitar, at the end of All That Is Left For Me, Emery steps up on stage while the audience are clapping.
Carl Jackson- adrenaline pumping.
How you doin? (turns to audience)
Thank you very much!
Emery
Get down on your knees!
Jackson (doesn't appear to hear, and turns to the Nashville Now House Band)
These guys are Alright!
Emery
Get down on your knees!
Jackson (gets down on one knee holding and resting his guitar on the other leg a couple feet from the floor, and quickly gets back up)
Oh... Is that how you remember me?
Emery
Yeah!
Jackson
That's about right, isn't it?
Emery
This isn't the little kid that I introduced the first time, where's your banjo.
Jackson
Uh, I broke it.
Emery
Are You kidding?
Jackson
No, I didn;t break it.
Emery
Do you know what? On this here show we've had two of the best banjo players that I have ever heard and I haven't even heard a lick.
Jackson (laughs)
Emery
Bobby Thompson who has been playin' rhythm back here and uh, Carl here is a great banjo player. You used to come up to the shows with your Daddy.
Jackson
That's right, that's right.
Emery
How is your Daddy.
Jackson
He is fine.
Emery
You're from Mississippi, aren'ch you.
Jackson
Ya, Mississippi, Louisville Mississippi.
Emery
Where's Glen.
Jackson (looks in camera, turns to audience and cranes head for a glimpse into the back of the hall)
Glen boy is late, inn't he? Glen, where are you.
Emery
How long have you been with The Glen Campbell Show.
Jackson
Eleven years not countin' tomorrow. No, I'm.... heh-heh... hee...
Emery
Where is he... Is he out on the Tee?
Jackson
He's been known to play a little after.. (barely audible) ...after a date....
Emery
Okay, I'm oh... uhm... I'm oh-uhm... goin' to plug somethin' here.
Jackson (softly)
You're gonna plug somethin... You gonna do it by yourself?
emery
Yeah, well you just stand here, it's alright, I'm gonna plug tomorrow night's show...
