Certified Guitar Player


I have just finished watching Chet Atkins Certified Guitar Player on my local PBS station.

It has a great line up and was really entertaining.

It reminded me of how good Chet Atkins is. To me he just is the most effortless guitar player. It looks as natural as breathing for him.

I've looked at many of the past posts and see many enjoy him also. And so many other great guitarists are mentioned. But none to me seem as at ease as he.

My $.02 worth.

I like Neck and Neck also. I enjoy everything I've heard by him.

So true what you say. Truly finger picking was his.

Not just play circles around them; but is a true performer, entertainer. You can feel the love he has for the guitar, music making and just plain playing. Having a great time.

What you say about TE is true. I was wowed by him when I first heard/saw him. Another true entertainer, just having a great time doing what he loves most. In his own words inspired by Atkins, the impetus for him to learn to play.

Maxnewid and Dave:
I met Tommy Emmanuel a few years ago in Richmond and I said your comment to him- might as well throw my guitar out-he replied, "no, no, this is meant to inspire you to play even more!" NIce guy - amazing talent and he truly has so much fun on stage.
