Chet Atkins on Austin City Limits in 1982 with Special Guest Jethro Burns
Музыка
In 2016, I up-loaded this performance, which was taken from my collection of off-the-air VHS recordings. I only recently found out that there was a picture freeze and audio dropout in Paul Yandell's solo during the performance of "Dance With Me", which must have occurred when I made the tape-to-digital transfer. The VHS cassette is long gone; but, I was able to find an upload of just that tune and "borrowed" a small piece of it to patch over the freeze and dropout.

This performance from 1982 is a trip down memory lane for anyone old enough to remember it. If you’re looking for a nostalgia fix, this is the video for you. The setlist includes a bunch of hits from the 70s and 80s and even a few oldies from the 50s and 60s. For a little bit of context, this is the 7th season of Austin City Limits, when they debuted the Austin skyline backdrop. That year, the music world lost Marty Robbins, Lightnin' Hopkins, and Thelonious Monk. But it wasn’t all bad news. George Strait had a #1 hit, and Roger Miller won a Tony award.👍
Chet. What can you say? What a player the world lost. Thankfully we still have these performances and his many recordings.
The man is a legend, the first Certified. Guitar. Player.
This man has probably done more for music than any other artist in history. !

He made a lot of mistakes and was the reason outlaw country was successful because he was against it. He didn't want Elvis to make Gospel recordings. Until E sold more gospel records than Chet's best country artists at the time.
I saw this show when it first played on National Public Television. The mostly unsung hero was Paul Yandell who played with Chet for over 25 years. Chet once said, if I remember correctly, that Paul could play everything that he could!! Now that's a compliment!!!🙂 In 2011, Chet's daughter bestowed on him the last Certified Guitar Player award and said there would be no more allowed by the Atkins estate.
Very talented man. I also like his demeanor.

Chet was a true and authentic "country gentleman."
Chet has been a central figure in my family for many decades, since 1872 or so I believe.... Anyways, my father always told me Chet was his favorite so I caught on real quick. I last spotted him in Portland Maine playing with the PSO and we loved it. All respect and props to the authentic Certified Guitar Player.
This was back when adults going out on the town looked like adults.
What a privilege to have shared some time on this planet with these two masters. I hope they are still collaborating in the afterlife.
Real musicians. There are so many phonies out there.

So true.
Chet and Jethro weren't just related with their musical careers, they were brothers-in-law. Chet married Leona Johnson, Jethro married Lois Johnson. In the 40's they were a singing duet out of Cincinnati, "The Johnson Twins."

大ファンだったノーキーが憧れた人 凄すぎる 一曲目はノーキーも弾いてるけど 越えられなかったかなぁ 唯一無二のゴッド・オブ・ギターだ
There's a girl at about 28:37 in this Austin City Limits performance by Chet Atkins. Set designer Augie Kymmel is wearing a striped shirt and white pants. You can see her talking on her phone and reading a book while sitting. It's interesting to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse at what's going on during these shoots, even if it's just a crew member doing their thing in the background.👍
I'm having some fun pic kin along sometimes I'll hit the right note. Haa oo wow these cats can play
Fantastic.
Bravo! Many thanks.
Second song was dance with me by orleans.
Thank you for sharing.
Бесподобно!
Not to forget what we alearned from him😊
Fantastic!! Thank you!!
I thought jethro would come in on the piccolo part on S&S Forever
I wish somebody would put a 4k of this program on You Tube. I recorded the original show on PBS long ago straight off the TV. That was in the 70's or 80's. I copied it to DVD. I still have the original VHS tape from PBS. I dubbed it to DVD

Faded Love preceded San Antonio Rose
He should've handed his guitar to Jethro, who was a much better player.
What a great.
