I grew up with Chet, what a gentleman, an unassuming genius. I grew up with his music, he's so humble and so utterly talented. Love ya Chet! Miss you my old friend.

Plus or minus, any interview with Mr. Atkins is a great interview.

Probably the last of the genuine country artists. He's the EVH of country, and super humble and nice.

When I was learning guitar listening to Chet Atkins I developed a 4-fingers and thumb technique by accident. Atkins in a few instances actually uses his 4th finger.

This is one time when the ignorance of an interviewer works out great. Good questions proposed in a way to let Mr. Atkins tell it like it is. Ya done good as we say.

Such a modest gentleman. But there's none that could touch his talent even tho he says the young kids with the hats on sell a load of songs and make a loada money that just depends on the audience and the songs lyrics but no one can touch or even rub shoulders with the great musicians and a lot of people forget about the great pedal steel players ,fiddlers and banjo and dobro players they all played there part to the gonra 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🏴🥃

This really is a great interview. I cant help but imagine some of the garbage interviews that are conducted these days by some garbage millennial asking garbage, irrelevant, and plain stupid questions, and instead end up talking about themselves.

That's ok. I have an audio only interview of Chet about the time when "Neck and Neck" was released in Australia but I will have to acquire a cassette player to rip it onto the computer. Also have one of Tommy E. when he was becoming a big name here. Trouble is, the cassette player. I don't have one anymore and they're getting like hen's teeth in the shops.

Correct, although Chet has recorded many other types of main stream music. "Western" music included numbers such as "Tumbling Tumbleweeds," "Cool Water," and such classics recorded by great singers such as the Sons of the Pioneers. Today's "country" music is just a little upgrade of hillbilly stuff.

Lightnin Hopkins Sure it does, especially that preferred by so-called 'purists.' Although they incessantly call themselves, "artists" (more than any other - and more deserving - group), the NASAL TWANG dominates the 'music,' and many of them still brag about not being able to read music (sangin' through their noses by ear).

ok, you are right, but far and few between, maybe a half-dozen good ones, the rest were pop-singers. Interesting that Atkins takes credit for thumbpicking when in fact he once said that if it wasn't for Merle Travis he might of had to stare at the back end of a horse for the rest of his life. He gets in front of a national audience and takes credit for something he clearly didnt come up with.@@randallshelton2514
