My favorite memory of Chet Atkins was hearing him tell a story of taking a cruise to relax. He had an acoustic guitar with him and was out on a deck chair relaxing and playing a little bit for his own enjoyment. The lady next to him said "you're pretty good with that guitar. You're no Chet Atkins mind you, but you're not bad". He just smiled and went back to his cabin.
Check out, Roy Clark and Joe Pass. I played until my fingers had blisters. I popped then put Band-Aids on them and kept playing . Can play several iInstruments. I had to. Most drink, do to many drugs. Relationship's. Don't give up. If you want to play. Keep practicing
Never knew Jerry could play like this, until I got older and realized, HEY! There's more to life than just working. You young working Men who read my comment, please take heed! Realize there's other thing's in this world besides working. Its to late for me, I'm 66 and my body is worn out from the physical labor I pushed it through. This music makes me feel so good! I'm happy. These artist are brilliant...😎😎😎
Jerry was a certified badass on guitar and everyone in Nashville and LA kew it. Chet gave him his master of the guitar award, one of very few ever given out. lookup Jerry's Breakdown with Chet
You should try GarageBand from Apple, you don't need to play an instrument. You just drag and drop pre recorded beats and the add maybe a bass line, etc...it's really not that hard. You never know😀😃
They were both superb guitarists. The difference? Chet was so laid back, whilst Jerry was a showman! But what a team they made! A real joy to watch them together. Oh, how I miss them!
I agree with you describing Jerry as the showman of the two, but there is that deep melancholic feel to what he does, both when clowning and playing. That's what I think that these two have in common apart from their incredible mastery of guitar playing within the same culture of southern rural and small town USA.
@@andrebadeaux2756as someone who’s been playing clubs etc for 50 years getting watch and listen to performance like this is a tasty treat - and Suzy Boggus is like the cherry on top! Keep ‘em coming (please?)
The amount of talent in that band is Ginormous!!! A very young Brent Mason & Jerry Douglas , Handsome Harry , Mark O’Connor , Pat Bergeron, & Paul Yandell not including Jerry & Chet !!!! It’s videos like these that give me a love hate relationship with my Guitars because as long as I have played these guys will run circles around me in there 70’s !! But it sure sounds amazing & is awesome to watch!!!
Thanks naming Suzy Bogguss, what a talent! Grew up with Chet and never knew my Dad had given us a treasure to enjoy so long after. Just found some Suzy Bogguss on RUclips, so check her out with that spelling. Reminded me a bit of Emmy Lou Harris, but that's an older memory too 😉
and Jerry was Very in-your-face about your guitar skills. Guess he had no complaints about Chet. But he called ALL guitarists "Son", as if ready to give them a (smart assed)guitar Lesson. "There's a lota guitar-wimps out there. spoken by T.N." Much respect to both ~R I P
They both practiced alot and yes they learned from eachother. To say its a natural talent is to take away from all of the hard work and dedication they both put into the instrument and music. It isnt a gift its alot of hard work
If you want to know what real, gifted, country guitar sounds like, THIS is who is playing when you find it. Two of the best "Certified Guitar Players", without peer. Having a full set with Suzy and that effortless band is a thing of wonder.
The adoration on Jerry's face for his dear friend Chet is never more evident than when Jerry sings "All I Ever Need Is You." Still hard to believe that these two giants are no longer with us. There are lots of really good players around today, but no PAIR of them are as tightly linked as Chester and Jerry.
The Nanci Griffith cut was really superb. Suzy Boggus is one of the top female voices of the last 50 years of country music and she and Nanci lay those lyrics down perfectly every time. It also never occurred to me before that she and Jerry Reed would sound so great together
From players point of view, Chet somehow managed to stay current with all of the great guitarists as they came up, regardless of their respective genres. It's one of the things I respected most about him, he just loved the art regardless of who it was coming from. Jerry Reed was another great guitarist, but vastly under rated I think. I found an interview with Chet saying how horribly insecure Jerry was about his playing. He recounted a time when they were just warming up & Jerry whipped out some runs & progressions that floored Chet, when he asked Jerry to show him Jerry grew uncomfortable, started making a joke about it (his go to thing when uncomfortable) then finally said it was time for a break. LOVE seeing these two playing together, thanks sharing!!
It's so nice to see this old video of Jerry Reed and Chet. There's even a very young Jerry Douglas on Dobro. Always love Jerry Reed, and I miss him and his music. I do have CDS but nothing like seeing and hearing from him on stage, or movies.
This was awesome! I always knew Jerry could play but I didn't know he could play like that! Holy Smokes! Then there's Chet.. We all knew he could play. One of the all time greats.
David Dawson yes! You are right. When you get my age, and with arthritis in your hands, then you can put on Chet/Jerry Reed and just smile... REAL BIG...👀👀👀😎😎😎😀😀😀
Love to hear Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed play together on the guitars they are both the greatest ever. They make you just sit there and listen and watch them make those guitars play that beautiful music.
Everything we see, or are exposed to, adds to our bank of knowledge. Whether good, bad or indifferent, we need all of this knowledge in order to put together a complete picture of the world that we live in. To refuse to recognize ANY knowledge, is to embrace ignorance. Anyone who ever "thumbs downed" anything has only shown that he or she prefers to remain ignorant.
Being a fellow musician, how hard must it have been to audition for Jerry and Chet's band ?? The caliber of talent in this group is immeasurable.. What a performance !!
I hate it when you start a long video and think maybe I'll just watch a few minutes and then it is so good to hear that you end up watching the whole thing! Jerry and Chet are playing every day now without a doubt!
That’s what just happened. Suzy Bogguss’ voice doesn’t hurt the ears much either. Nanci should have written a few more custom tailored for her. Suzy’s scale precision took that Russell/Griffith colab to perfect heights
These guys were Soooo timeless and had so much fun together.. Cool to see them playing two Kirk Sand model guitars..Jerry on his custom model and Chet on the series he designed for Gibson
5 of the best. On acoustic up front is Paul Yandell, long time picking partner of Chet and a CGP recipient. Add youngsters (then) Brent Mason and Pat Bergeson. Phenoms is a good word for them.
Paul was just as good as Chet in many ways. Just think of having to read Chet Atkins mind every song, and then follow him, and support him. I have one of Paul's books. You get to see and with the CD hear Paul; solo. Amazing player. RIP to all of them. We are the blessed ones for having them in our lives.
I love seeing these two legends.. Jerry's style makes u want to play country music. " Eastbound and down" is a super composition for Jerry.. Chet's really a teacher..calm cool masters they are... Something to treasure
A work friend knew l liked Chet... came in on monday Sunday was his shopping Flea markets...said to me Think you'll like what i found and handed me 17 chet albums from the fleas of Somebody's estate sale. Thank you Gary R. for thinking of me. I cd'd all of them and carried them in the road service van I drove for 13 years as a Mech-tech millwright.for the 15 branches of the corp. Carried a guitar always. ❤
That is some entertainment folks. I dig that kind of music, Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins and that Lady country singer Nobody's business, great performance. Great traditional country and folk playing like it should be. Like Joe Maphis, Merle Travis, Doc Watson also, who else i forgot...the fiddlers, banjo players what not.. everybody was at or trying his or her best to outstand another without modern "autotune" fancy finetune and sound adjustments just to look good ya know great guitar pickers of old times, rarely matched so in perfromance today. Greetings from The Netherlands
I just realised that the drummer in this Video and in this American Shop Band is a Young Harry Stinson. Harry Stinson is part of Marty Stuart’s Band “The Fabulous Superlatives”
If you look up the best of friends, you will find Chet and Jerry. Lots of respect and admiration between those two. Their playing together is like spun silk. I saw them live years and years ago and I witnessed one of the coolest things ever from Chet. Jerry was introing "Georgia On My Mind" and Chet followed for about two bars past the intro. Then he just folded his arms across his guitar and watched like a fanboy. Stood and applauded when Jerry finished. Kinda like he did in this clip, but with more enthusiasm. It was quite a deal, I thought. Also as in this upload when they finished "Sneakin' Around" and Chet smiled at Jerry then patted him on the shoulder. Wow! Chet also thought the world of Suzy. She deserved it. Thank you for the upload!
Jerry Reed and Chet... a match made in heaven. Mark O'Connor, another superlative. I hear the influence of Stéphane Grappelli in some of his jazz work, as I do here. All three, great composers in different in different, but related, idioms. If I were anywhere near as good as these guys it'd be hard to be as down-to-earth as these three. Just magical.
I grew up listening to Jazz. It wasn't until I was an adult that I realized these two "country stars" were damn good jazz musicians. Best version of Summertime ever.
Totally- some people pigeon hole country (see Buddy Rich’s famous comments) but IMHO, as a previous commenter said, ALL music is an opportunity for exploration and growth… it’s also a matter of taste, but musicians of certain caliber, in any genre, may be capable of crossing genres or creating a fusion (examples from Yo Yo Ma, to Bryan Ferry, to Joni Mitchell, to Marty Friedman)… SO much to learn and enjoy!
@@Dtruthseek I believe the guitarist is Bill Lloyd, the Drummer is Harry Stinson, the bass player is Glen Worf, that's Mark O'Connor on fiddle and John Jarvis on keyboards
@@birdman5939 Thank you. But this time I happened to see the band members flash by in the credits at the end (took me a while to freeze it in the right place so I could read them, they went by so fast). Here's what it said. But hey, wait a minute, during the video at 39:50 at the end of Atkins' solo he turns to the strat player and someone shouts "Hey Pat" to indicate it's his turn to solo. Was there another guitar player on the stand named Brent Mason? (plus below in the reply to Martin Lehfelt, it would seem to indicate Pat Burgeson, per "E L") Music Shop Band: Mark O'Connor, fiddle Brent Mason, guitar John Jarvis, keyboard Jerry Douglas, dobro Glenn Worf, bass Harry Stinson, drums
That rendition of Georgia on my Mind was a guitar tour de force. Chet was mesmerized. Jerry was an absolute master and innovator. Who’s to say but he might have been the best ever.
Hearing that rendition of "Something ".... I Love this whole thing absolutely front to back.. don't get me wrong. But, that was beautiful. The recent Documentary and "Now and Then" Got me on a Beatles kick again. "Midnight" is one that I would have LOVED to have heard them Do. With Chet and Suzy in the style of how they did Here... Oh sweet Lord...... Jerry doing his magic and George Harrison's slide guitar behind his picking would be Insane... then throw John and Chet Together for the rhythm and small solo work and Lead. I also get a mental image in my head of George & John jamming with Chet and Jerry on Music Row in Nashville or Abbey Road. I firmly believe that each of the Beatles could easily have correctly done sessions on Country styled tunes. I would have loved to heard them on a session backed with Mark O' Conner and the various musicians out of Nashville in this Period and the Greats that came before them. It's been documented that they liked Country tunes and were big fans of Ernest Tubb. " Beatles Go Country" would have been a trip.
What a true treasure to find this! Thank you for posting! Wish I could get a video of this show or sound track! Two "Masters" of their trades that contributed so much to music! Blessings from above!
Maybe the best of Chet Atkins in this performance, is that he knows where to keep quiet.... I mean, he's up front most the time, I'd be like, play as much as i can, let them hear everything i do... but Chet, he's just listening and enjoys even when he feels it's not his turn.
My favorite memory of Chet Atkins was hearing him tell a story of taking a cruise to relax. He had an acoustic guitar with him and was out on a deck chair relaxing and playing a little bit for his own enjoyment. The lady next to him said "you're pretty good with that guitar. You're no Chet Atkins mind you, but you're not bad". He just smiled and went back to his cabin.
Check out, Roy Clark and Joe Pass. I played until my fingers had blisters. I popped then put Band-Aids on them and kept playing . Can play several iInstruments. I had to. Most drink, do to many drugs.
Relationship's. Don't give up. If you want to play. Keep practicing
😆OMGOSH!
Does anyone know who makes the guitar Jerry in playing in this song??
I can’t tell. It’s the acoustic with no sound hole.
@@ronniealexander8967 It's a Kirk Sand. He's a fantastic luthier in Laguna Beach, CA.
humble person he was, no bragging about....
Never knew Jerry could play like this, until I got older and realized, HEY! There's more to life than just working. You young working Men who read my comment, please take heed! Realize there's other thing's in this world besides working. Its to late for me, I'm 66 and my body is worn out from the physical labor I pushed it through. This music makes me feel so good! I'm happy. These artist are brilliant...😎😎😎

wow!!
I refuse to give up my whole life working for some one else's dirt. Tired of thinking worth comes from working some pointless job!!
You should try GarageBand from Apple, you don't need to play an instrument. You just drag and drop pre recorded beats and the add maybe a bass line, etc...it's really not that hard. You never know😀😃
?mmp
I truly love when the guitar is the voice in a song. And these two were masters of doing just that. RIP Chet and Jerry. Thank you for the great music.
Честер Эткинс замечательный популяризатор гитары!
They were both superb guitarists. The difference? Chet was so laid back, whilst Jerry was a showman! But what a team they made! A real joy to watch them together. Oh, how I miss them!
o boy me too
Both great but I prefer Jerry...so Funky
ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=pms+i+guess+jerry+reed
Chet has a different way of making his guitar ring out he has always done a super job
I agree with you describing Jerry as the showman of the two, but there is that deep melancholic feel to what he does, both when clowning and playing. That's what I think that these two have in common apart from their incredible mastery of guitar playing within the same culture of southern rural and small town USA.
One of the greatest thing about RUclips is that it's as much a pleasure to watch these great musicians as it is to listen to their music.
Yep one of the good things the internet brought....along with some bad too.
I agree! Its why I uploaded it to my channel. I wanted to share the history and legacy of these great musicians.
@@andrebadeaux2756 what year was this about?

It is truly amazing what they’re capable of.
True masters of their craft. Sad they don't have programs like this on television any more.
Susie Boguss was no joke. Serious talent there. Not to mention beauty,
She & Chet made an album together. Good stuff!
It sure ain't about playing cards! 😎😎😎
I was scrolling comments to find her name. Thanks for sharing and I couldn't agree more.
Thanks naming Suzy Bogguss, what a talent! Grew up with Chet and never knew my Dad had given us a treasure to enjoy so long after. Just found some Suzy Bogguss on RUclips, so check her out with that spelling. Reminded me a bit of Emmy Lou Harris, but that's an older memory too 😉
When they busted out the Beatles it showed just how much respect they have for all kinds of music. What a great show!
Oh lord that version of Something! SO BEAUTIFUL
I thought my version of something was pretty good until I heard this one!!
brings tears to my eyes this full production.....
amazing...miss Chet and Jerry. Brings back such good memories of my childhood as well.
Mr Jerry Reed and Mr Chet Atcins,,, damn,,, and a great bunch of musicianns , excelelnt
Jerrys Georgia on my mind is fabulous..
Chet is a master, Jerry is a natural talent - they both taught each other- and as far as I can see were great freinds!
Very well articulated, my good Sir.
Chet was the master! Everyone copied him and carried it to their level of talent, they're are a few dozen or more that can do this...
and Jerry was Very in-your-face about your guitar skills. Guess he had no complaints about Chet.
But he called ALL guitarists "Son", as if ready to give them a (smart assed)guitar Lesson. "There's a lota guitar-wimps out there. spoken by T.N." Much respect to both ~R I P
They both practiced alot and yes they learned from eachother. To say its a natural talent is to take away from all of the hard work and dedication they both put into the instrument and music. It isnt a gift its alot of hard work
Jerry is amazing with his voice with the rhythmic music of chet ..... fabulous !!
Two guitar masters sadly, no longer with us but, their music lives on.
YES IT DOES!!
Thank you Chet and Jerry for such great performances of so many unforgettable tunes. RIP.
My favorite song by, Chet and Jerry was Jerry's Breakdown !!!
Always wanted to learn that song !!!!
It's just to complicated !!!!
God Bless Jerry Reed.. I was moved at summer time and Georgia... and god bless Chet... too who helped Reed's career.
They were there own. Glad to have had lived in the time they were with us. They will never be anyone to come even close to them. God bless them both.
All of the band are amazing musicians.
Of course, your not gonna plug in behind those two legends and not be badass
God given talents shared from their hearts to enhance our lives . Thank you all for this evening,!

They are often imitated but will never be duplicated!!! 👍
Many try, none succeed! Karl
Umm Richard Smith, Billy Strings?
I'm one of the imitators of these 2 guitar gods. Proud to play their licks on my guitars even if I am left handed....lol!
Man, Jerry Reed!!!!
Jerry is one of the most underrated artists known !
❤️❤️❤️I only wish I could pick like that.
The adoration on Jerry's face for his dear friend Chet is never more evident than when Jerry sings "All I Ever Need Is You." Still hard to believe that these two giants are no longer with us. There are lots of really good players around today, but no PAIR of them are as tightly linked as Chester and Jerry.
Chester and Lester was a great combination too. I have the album that Chet and Les Paul did together, and I wish they had done more together!!
The Nanci Griffith cut was really superb. Suzy Boggus is one of the top female voices of the last 50 years of country music and she and Nanci lay those lyrics down perfectly every time.
It also never occurred to me before that she and Jerry Reed would sound so great together
Can we petition to get this kind of show back on the air?
will have to start our own network
Maybe! In this world there are millions who play this, but how are you going to find them! That's the trick...
a type of Hee Haw, Grand Old Opry, a family-centered Laugh IN....would be nice. something that inspires the young to carry on and learn.
@@LibertyLeslie It's not very popular but Ray Stevens continues to emcee an evening show in Nashville weekly shown on PBS in some areas..
Nobody, sadly, plays like that anymore.
From players point of view, Chet somehow managed to stay current with all of the great guitarists as they came up, regardless of their respective genres. It's one of the things I respected most about him, he just loved the art regardless of who it was coming from. Jerry Reed was another great guitarist, but vastly under rated I think.

The greatest collection of real musicians anywhere on the planet. They simply could not be bettered. Simply the best.
Awesome talent from these two and amazing entertainers the world will never see again. Miss am both.
It is a crime that this has less than 3k likes...............
Chet and Jerry were quite a tag team.....a few others played very well with them as well....I miss them all....lots of great music here on RUclips....
Glenn Campbell was one of those few. The giants are gone now.
That was a great pleasure to watch and listen to...
It's so nice to see this old video of Jerry Reed and Chet. There's even a very young Jerry Douglas on Dobro. Always love Jerry Reed, and I miss him and his music. I do have CDS but nothing like seeing and hearing from him on stage, or movies.

Jerry reed was a master! Never heard georgia on my mind done so great. Wow
His guitar intro is one of the best.
This was awesome! I always knew Jerry could play but I didn't know he could play like that! Holy Smokes! Then there's Chet.. We all knew he could play. One of the all time greats.
Jerry wrote a lot of tunes that he taught to Chet, great guitar tunes
If you're stressed, just put on Chet and everything's gonna be alright.
FYI, if you are stressed about your playing, then it doesn't help
David Dawson yes! You are right. When you get my age, and with arthritis in your hands, then you can put on Chet/Jerry Reed and just smile... REAL BIG...👀👀👀😎😎😎😀😀😀

awesome
I cry every time I see a video with these two irreplaceable guitar pickers in action. There will never be anyone else like them.
Sure there will. Just not very many.
Billy Strings and Marcus King have entered the chat
Be grateful we lived when they lived and we had the chance to see them live!
Billy Strings is the current generations Chet Atkins.
Hard to compare Billy And Chet.
Completely different animals 😆
Damn. This is as good as it gets. 🎸🔥
The two best. Period.
Merci à Claude pour m'avoir passer sa passion pour Chet Akhins
Depuis ta disparition , je l'écoute , sans toi, avec beaucoup d'émotion...
Great to see Paul Yandell just chugging the rhythm out. He's quite the player himself.
Yep. Paul is a huge talent on his own.
and paul's gone on too. miss them all
Sad that I only discovered Paul after he was gone.
Paul was just as good as Chet in many ways. Just think of having to read Chet Atkins mind every song, and then follow him, and support him. I have one of Paul's books. You get to see and with the CD hear Paul; solo. Amazing player. RIP to all of them. We are the blessed ones for having them in our lives.
I love seeing these two legends.. Jerry's style makes u want to play country music. " Eastbound and down" is a super composition for Jerry.. Chet's really a teacher..calm cool masters they are... Something to treasure

If you look up the best of friends, you will find Chet and Jerry. Lots of respect and admiration between those two. Their playing together is like spun silk. I saw them live years and years ago and I witnessed one of the coolest things ever from Chet. Jerry was introing "Georgia On My Mind" and Chet followed for about two bars past the intro. Then he just folded his arms across his guitar and watched like a fanboy. Stood and applauded when Jerry finished. Kinda like he did in this clip, but with more enthusiasm. It was quite a deal, I thought. Also as in this upload when they finished "Sneakin' Around" and Chet smiled at Jerry then patted him on the shoulder. Wow! Chet also thought the world of Suzy. She deserved it. Thank you for the upload!
This is too much talent for my senses.
Just love that bouncy 2 beat ... and the rotating bass beat...
3 Little Words is masterful! One of my faves. I'd kill to be able to play a "bad bass" and a "bad guitar" as well as Chet!
Jerry Reed
Chet Atkins
Glen Campbell
These three legends were in a league of their own... Especially Glen
Don’t forget Roy Clark too. Jerry is tops for me, though.
That’s an elite list , indeed. For me, Reed is the head of that class.
That’s just so good! Jerry always had to have the last lick.
So nice to see Brent mason playing on the background
No I’m mean the Guy om the telecaster that is Brent for sure 😉
WOW! What fantastic guitar picking! 💯🎻🎸❣❣❣❣
Both virtuoso's on the guitar, great players...!
Love them all ! I have loved Suzy for years. Her music is great ! Plus she is very easy on the eyes too !
i could listen to summertime all day!!
mercy shake a goat, i could walk a 100 miles listening to this and not break a sweat
Such an amazing friendship and collaboration.
Leaves you speechless.
Chet always seemed to have an extra bounce in his step around Jerry Reed.
makes my heart happy we have this!
Brent Mason in there playing rhythm....Mark O'Connor...bunch of all stars.
Loved these shows. Especially when you had a lineup like these greats.
Jerry Reed and Chet... a match made in heaven. Mark O'Connor, another superlative. I hear the influence of Stéphane Grappelli in some of his jazz work, as I do here. All three, great composers in different in different, but related, idioms. If I were anywhere near as good as these guys it'd be hard to be as down-to-earth as these three. Just magical.
Chet, Jerry, and the Kid 👦 are great 👍 Guitarists, Love ❤️ the jazz style music.💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I grew up listening to Jazz. It wasn't until I was an adult that I realized these two "country stars" were damn good jazz musicians. Best version of Summertime ever.
Totally- some people pigeon hole country (see Buddy Rich’s famous comments) but IMHO, as a previous commenter said, ALL music is an opportunity for exploration and growth… it’s also a matter of taste, but musicians of certain caliber, in any genre, may be capable of crossing genres or creating a fusion (examples from Yo Yo Ma, to Bryan Ferry, to Joni Mitchell, to Marty Friedman)… SO much to learn and enjoy!
absolute perfect group of musicians.
Would love to know the names of the others, especially bassist and guy playing green strat (almost looked like Vince Gill many years ago)
@@Dtruthseek I believe the guitarist is Bill Lloyd, the Drummer is Harry Stinson, the bass player is Glen Worf, that's Mark O'Connor on fiddle and John Jarvis on keyboards
@@birdman5939 Thank you. But this time I happened to see the band members flash by in the credits at the end (took me a while to freeze it in the right place so I could read them, they went by so fast). Here's what it said. But hey, wait a minute, during the video at 39:50 at the end of Atkins' solo he turns to the strat player and someone shouts "Hey Pat" to indicate it's his turn to solo. Was there another guitar player on the stand named Brent Mason? (plus below in the reply to Martin Lehfelt, it would seem to indicate Pat Burgeson, per "E L")
Music Shop Band:
Mark O'Connor, fiddle
Brent Mason, guitar
John Jarvis, keyboard
Jerry Douglas, dobro
Glenn Worf, bass
Harry Stinson, drums
@@Dtruthseek yes i saw 2 electric guitarists to Chet's left, one was a young Brent Mason n another guy who was playing the bluesier stuff.
Heartwarmer! My heart is feeling the feelin!
That was a beautiful version of "Something".
That rendition of Georgia on my Mind was a guitar tour de force. Chet was mesmerized. Jerry was an absolute master and innovator. Who’s to say but he might have been the best ever.
fantastic....thanks!
Best show ive seen in a good while!! 👍
Hearing that rendition of "Something ".... I Love this whole thing absolutely front to back.. don't get me wrong.
But, that was beautiful. The recent Documentary and "Now and Then" Got me on a Beatles kick again.
"Midnight" is one that I would have LOVED to have heard them Do. With Chet and Suzy in the style of how they did Here...
Oh sweet Lord...... Jerry doing his magic and George Harrison's slide guitar behind his picking would be Insane... then throw John and Chet
Together for the rhythm and small solo work and Lead.
I also get a mental image in my head of George & John jamming with Chet and Jerry on Music Row in Nashville or Abbey Road.
I firmly believe that each of the Beatles could easily have correctly done sessions on Country styled tunes.
I would have loved to heard them on a session backed with Mark O' Conner and the various musicians out of Nashville in this
Period and the Greats that came before them.
It's been documented that they liked Country tunes and were big fans of Ernest Tubb.
" Beatles Go Country" would have been a trip.
What a true treasure to find this! Thank you for posting! Wish I could get a video of this show or sound track! Two "Masters" of their trades that contributed so much to music! Blessings from above!
@Simian Samsonite Thank you!!!!!!!!
I wish I could place the first track. I know I know it but can’t pull it out.
Thanks for the effort of cataloging the performances!
Love these guys. Great music. My soul is poisoned and the really help. Thanks guys.
Maybe the best of Chet Atkins in this performance, is that he knows where to keep quiet.... I mean, he's up front most the time, I'd be like, play as much as i can, let them hear everything i do... but Chet, he's just listening and enjoys even when he feels it's not his turn.
Such great video. I joined you and my thumps up
Must be True.."Only the Good Die Young" Rest easy Gents..see ya soon
