Re: Chet Adkins

Good shout. Such a versatile guitar player.

Many people see the guitar as an instrument only for boring chordal accompaniment, or screaming lead guitar solos. Atkins is one of the many people that show otherwise.

Re: Chet Adkins

It has always been a real pleasure to watch and listen to Chet play.  A true virtuoso.  I loved when he got together with other artists.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
