![Plays Back Home Hymns [1962] - Chet Atkins](/img/n.gif)
The amazing Chet Atkins, the master guitarist. I am 80 and since a boy I listened to Mr. Atkins...sometimes I'd be so moved I would weep. I wish I could have seen him in person; even see him & Glen Campbell do something together.
Chet makes it look so effortless. I was there in the glory days of the best country. I am grateful for that.
I'd give my left --- to play like that! Hell I'd give 'em both!
Wow. You ARE an old coot ! I almost feel young at only 65. I have enjoyed listening to Chet's music since I was about 3 yoa. Fortunately I got to see him in concert in northern Florida in 1988 - an unforgettable concert !
The crazy thing about Chet is that he played everything so effortlessly that it made me think I could go home and do it too.
I agree. At times he almost looks bored!! Lol
Chet was my grandpa's favorite and attempted to emulate him and his style of finger picking. He even secretly recorded his own song he wrote bc of Chet Atkins.
CHET ATKINS, ROY CLARK AND JOE PASS. THERE ARE SO MANY MORE. DON'T FORGET THE FOUNDER'S.
ROBERT JOHNSON, ROBERT? CHUCK BERRY,MUDDY WATERS, JIMMY HENDRIX ()()( )
I found a home. Thank you.
There was a time Chet was on NN, it was done outside.
Chet blew a note, and the band's faces were priceless!! When they came around to the part again, he flubbed the same note the same way, looked back at the band, and winked. Their faces said "He's the coolest guy EVER!".
I think I only heard Chet hit a couple dead notes ever. He was really a clean player as was Earl Scruggs. I like your story.
@@charliekucharski2079.
Chet is the way America used to be🎸
So glad to discover those jewels ! I never had the luck to see Chet in France though he made several appearences with Marcel Dadi. From France with love!
GOD BLESS HIM - CHET ATKINS - FOREVER !
And bless the fantastic flamekeepers that keep his flames burning
🧡🤎💚★!¡!AMEN!¡!★🧡💚🤎
No matter how brilliant the other player is nobody has quite got the Chet factor………the complete genius.
Chet was so humble. He taught others how to play in his style. Chet was the literal best.
He can teach his style but now to do it like him That only comes from playing 8 hours a day for 20 years.
@@maplebones man I KNOW you're right and having the LUCK to catch on!
I love how chet played with bela. Then year's down the road, bela plays with billy strings.. just very glad there is a true natural picker in today's world.
I got to meet the great man playing in monroe la when i was 14 along with boots randolph and floyd cramer.and a guy my friend and i had met when we snuck off from my dad to grab a smoke...this guy had pulled boot's bus away frim the loading dock and remarked that he'd been tryin to pop a wheely in that bus all day...had a smoke with him and later boot's introduced a young fella that could play guitar.....we rushed down front to see chet, low n behold the guy we'd met in back came out...it was jerry reed....befor amos moses of course..what a night..
Great story! I'm guessing that was in the early 60's when Chet, Boots, and Floyd were doing their Festival of Music tour and Jerry was a regular guest. Jerry was indeed the wild man but Chet had a few surprises also. A friend of mine who was a member of Pine Tree Country Club, Kennesaw, Ga witnessed Chet and Jerry playing a round of golf. According to my friend, Chet won the round and Jerry was upset so he challenged Chet to see who could throw a golf ball the farthest for the agreed winnings. Chet, with his long arms, beat Jerry easily so Jerry challenged him to see who could spit a golf ball the farthest. Although not very dignified, Chet ended up winning the whole pot.
@@willmarcus1777 yes it was...reed was zackly like he appeared in da movies..that golf story sounds just like him....i knocked on boot's door, thought i heard "come in"...walked in on hom in his garters half dressed in his tux....still got his autograph..i wore out every chet revord i could get..and still would if it weren't fer youtube....great memories!
Just wonderful, I'm a big Chet fan and I've never seen most of these clips!
Thank you for all your hard work.
Chad Atkins. You’re totally beautiful guitarist.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😁😁❤️🎸🎼🎶🎵🎸
This man inspired me so much to play guitar. I just had to do it. In 1974 I picked up my first guitar. Been playing every cent because of Chad Atkins. George Harrison. And of course the Eagles all inspired me to play guitar even Creedence Clearwater, revival and John Frogley, but the most inspiration was Chad Adkins. 49 years later and I am a finger style guitarist. Thank You. Chet Atkins, or such a great impact on my guitar playing. I miss you. May you rest in peace and may the good Lord have a place in his heart for you👍🏼👍🏼😁❤️🎸☮️
Chet is 10000 better musician , then all the names you mentioned combined... really in a league with a few ppl. I am a big jerry garcia fan.. but let's be real here lol. Chet Is in a league of his own.. if you take all the talent we both mentioned and combined it to one picker.. chet would still be a more talented picker😊
David, I don’t believe Mark Brown was implying that other guitarists listed were on equal standing with Chet; they are just other guitarists who inspired him to study guitar. What was made vey clear in Brown’s statement was that Chet Atkins had the greatest impact on him.
Very touching history! Good Luck, Mark!
Thank you so much for putting this together for TH-cam. And, my Lord, I had no idea how good Mark O'Connor was on guitar.
Awesome
pail yandell
paul yandell
my mistake didnt watch the whole video mark O'connor is impressive
"I don't think Flatt played it that way." A laugh and a nod. These men were giants among giants. Incredible. Chet forever. A legend never dies.
So very true
Chet,Roy,Joe,.Atkins, Clark and Pass.
Excellent Match 1st names with last name's.
Jerry Douglas is the greatest Dobro player. Bela Fleck is the greatest Banjo player. Chet is Chet. What a band.
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for making this precious timeless collection of sheer brilliance available to the broader public. I discovered Chet Atkins at the time of a great personal tragedy, sorrow and hopelessness. Chet's music helped to soothed my heart. His concerts were my only consolation. It was beyond the music talent, it was a human connection like no other. I am so grateful and will keep watching Chet Atkins till the end of times. Thank you again for your amazing posting!
Paul Yandall almost always with Chet yet many dont even know who he was.
I always am amazed by his playing.
I'm guessing the studio was pretty cool when they played Sweet Georgia Brown, etc. They looked bundled up pretty good. Didn't affect their playing any though. Chet was and always will be #1 on my list of favorite guitarists.
That's Bela Fleck around the 30 minute mark on the banjo
Thanks for the upload, this is, IMHO, the best Chet's video on TH-cam!
David Grisman and Tony Rice is visible on show #52020
The first , with Doc Watson ?
It´s Steve Wariner on some of the tunes, the spelling above is wrong !
Is that little tuft of red wool in his left lapel the Legion d' Honneur?

Whoa! This is incredibly helpful. I'll add this to the description... thank you for doing this!
@@NashvilleVHS I'm just a real Chet fan, 😎!
“Orleans,” the band, has been standing the test of time,” since c. 1967.
My grandparents took me to Nashville to buy 2 Tennessee walkers. We had the filly bought but he wanted a coming 2 yr stud colt. We went into a small cafe for lunch and Chet Atkins came in. He said hi to everyone there. He came to our table and asked what brought us to town and my grandfather said we were trying to find a colt to buy. He set us up with singer Carl Smith where we found a wonderful stud colt. Carl Smith had tried to talk me into getting the colt I hadn't picked because he was nicer in conformation. I explained that the colts were both nice, but the one I chose had a nicer temperment. I said that they would get bigger and stronger but grandfather had cancer and would soon be weaker. I wanted a horse that he would love and that I knew would take care of my grandfather as he became more ill. Carl Smith smiled and put his arm around my shoulder, saying that I was a good granddaughter. Apache was a wonderful stallion for him. Thank you Chet Atkins and Carl Smith for you warmth, helpfulness and kindness to complete strangers. God bless the people that are so willing to help others. I love both men for helping me give my grandfather his final wish in life. ❤
It's such a shame that the person who recirded these clips on VHS didn't allow us to see them in high quality. All they needed to do is use high quality tape, record at high speed and TURN OFF the annoying time markers !!!
Thank you for this.
What a gold mine! Thanks for sharing!
Chet returned from Paris where he gave concerts at the Olympia invited by his French friend Marcel Dadi
Dad had converted the Garage into a lounge with a bar and Uncle Rudy, Uncle Gene and Aunt Linda and Uncle Ray would have jam sessions with at least 4 guitars going. And this was was the type of music they would play. So many good memories. ❤
Thank you so much for this. Chet was the greatest!
Who was the dobro player around 30min mark?
Wonderful video big like . Like 112.

This is awesome! Thank you for filling in some of the gaps. I'll update this right now.
Only darn thing that would have made having these ding a lings' local cabel worth it, Uncle Ted.
What an absolute treasure trove of the purest gold. My heart is full. Thank you from Downunder. Ps and yeah please dont sue this man...Hes an out n out very cool guy
a trick : you can watch movies on Flixzone. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Evan Idris Definitely, I've been using flixzone} for months myself :D
M
This guy's a freak that's was the guy who invented a guitar had in mind I think this guy's shit hot on that git ar
Doc and Chet were alike. They played so cleanly and without leaving a signature. You just hear the instrument and the song. You’re not aware of a player.
look at the abalone inlays on that guitar. sweet
I wish I was in texas to end the song the guitar said instead of Dixie
who were the four chuckleheads who gave this a thumbs down LOL
Mark O'Connor is one of the most gifted musicans ever. Too bad he's an asshole
Help me make it through the day i could hear Chets guitar say as well as night and war
Wonderful sounds Love it
We can all use more of the country gentleman, and this is stuff I've never seen.
Looks like it was recorded off of C band satellite am I correct? I do see some misalignment from a VHS tape also, L use to record this way, and still have the recordings just like this but I haven't watched them in years and it's great that you put this up. I very much appreciate it thank you
My father used to love Chet, and now and again, I like to go through his old vinyl, and even TH-cam to look up some old Chet Atkins songs, just to remind me of the old man.
This is awesome! Chet was a great man. Glad this is giving you some memories!
@@NashvilleVHS Roger Whitaker is another one he really liked, he used to cover the Last Farewell, so it's nice to see an existing performance of Whitaker and Atkins doing Last Farewell as a duet. Great video, a lot of great music.
Mr reason people play the guitar him and and I have too say jazz guitar would be why people BBQ and same with blues and blue grass 💙green and blue willy Nelson is why and how people can write good songs chet would work out the kinks best thinker with fingers 💙promise
The tune played at 48:48 is not Alabama Jubilee but Foggy Mountain Breakdown
Thanks so much. I wish the same quality compilation was available for Johnny Cash.
Never gets old, just get's mature, like a good Whisky
Michael T Coleman from the Seldom Scene on the bass?
Fantastic thanks my hero no one like him

My x- wife grewup on this sort of country and elvis and such i had my eyes were opened when sheintruduced me to chet and travis and all the rest of tbe good ole boysi started learning to play that guitar style but when i fell back on my old ways and but "that" crowbar##@@!!

Paul Yandell was the ultimate side man. He knew his role and fulfilled it impeccably.
Simpler times its sad they are gone for good.
Thank you very much! Great video
Great video. Thx, i didn't see some of these shows
Some serious guitar players on that stage

This guy is just PHENOMINAL.

Sweet Georgia brown was 🎷'ing MINT
Blister on his thumb hew
I always wished for a Chet Atkins and Steve Howe show. Why didn't that happen?

Muito bom!
Rip Chet and Ralph
Chet was a genius. As a producer, he contributed more than anyone else to the decline of country music, then he takes out his 6 string and redeems it.
Happy music, from the best of pickers, 6-24
So awesome to combine all these shows and share.... please do more Chet Collection videos from TNN. Thanks
Thanks for sharing these appearances!
Did Chet produce Roger’s albums?
He produced a few of them. Chet produced Roger's track of Wind Beneath my Wings in 1982 which was the first to be recorded. He also produced a country album Roger had in 1980 called Changes. Chet also produced the soundtrack for Roger's Disney Movie called Roger Whittaker in Kenya. They were great friends
@@phil2518 Thank you!

Merci beaucoup !
There will never be another.!!!!
THANKS
It was somebody over there in the band they company me I know exactly what he means could even have been Ralph's energy being so close to Chet it bound to have mixed and the Buddha knows it is a dangerous way to enlightenment by mixing with other beings when one has already attained a great frequency some call it enlightenment, the moths and other creatures around the light cause partial blindness for the emissions and scatterment in the bringing causing bum notes
I love.juha.kemi.finland
