Product Review

As seen on PBS. Chet Atkins - Certified Guitar Player is a concert-tribute to Chet Atkins, performed by Chet and many giants in the music business: Mark Knopfler, The Everly Brothers, Emmylou Harris, Michael McDonald, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson, backed by Nashville's premier studio musicians. Great music, great fun, and a moving experience as a joyful document created about Chet Atkins' importance in the history of music, and to everyone on that stage. The CD: contains the entire soundtrack of the program above. It has all the music (17 songs), all the interplay between Chet and his fellow stars, and all the excitement felt by the audience that night. Note: The bonus footage on the DVD is not included on the CD. Mastered in HDCD.

Chet Atkins' Certified Guitar Player is a delight, everything I wanted and then some. He was at his pinnacle when this CD was released, and shows his work to be superior to all others in his field.

The man can play the guitar. Banjo. Mandolin.

A style so unique that I picked it up that it was he upon coming into a piece of music on the radio without first hearing the credits, and my son without seeing the TV screen.

In this his friends -- the Everly Brothers, Emmy-lou Harris, ole' Willie Nelson have a good time doing what The Creator intended: making a joyful noise.

A PBS-TV special of this was made, also. Find it.

Play this one for whomever you can corral. They'll thank you for it.
