My uncle loved it
A very accessible record that my uncle, an avid Chet Atkins fan, loved when he recieved it as a "new car" present (bye-bye cassette tapes).

Smooth, smooth and sweet
This is a fine collection of Chet's work. With a little help from Dolly Parton, Les Paul and Jerry Reed. Chet rated himself worlds 5th best guitar player. After hearing this CD you'll shake your head and wonder, "who could have done better?"

Sweet Collection of Famous Work
As a thumbpicker of guitar, I really enjoy this album. The amazing guitar speed and clarity shown in "Main Street Breakdown" and "Cascade" are great examples. This album collects a nice balance of sweet sounding music and guitar playing across a range of years from which they were recorded.

The one and only
I have several CHet Atkins albums, as I am a guitarist with eclectic tastes and love his style. If I were to own only one Chet Atkins album this would probably be the one. It showcases his wide range of style and virtusity from black mountain rag to the charming ballad duet with Dolly Parton to yakety axe. Its fun, it moves along, there are a wide variety of selections and it is well engineered. In a day when fewer people know about Chet this a a great way to understand how this man came to influence an entire music industry and style, was able to do so by his instrumnetal virtuosity, yet appealed to everyman. Buy it youll love it.
