CHET ATKINS - Five Classic Albums Plus (2 CDS)

AVID Country continues its Classic Albums series with a re-mastered 2CD release featuring Chet Atkins, complete with original artwork, liner notes and personnel details.
“At Home”; “Teensville”; “Chet Atkins Workshop;” “Down Home”; “Caribbean Guitar” plus 6 Bonus tracks
As the producer of such legends as Hank Snow, Porter Wagoner, Dolly Parton, Dottie West, Waylon Jennings, Jerry Reed……not to mention Elvis, The Everly Brothers, Eddy Arnold and Jim Reeves, you may be forgiven for overlooking the fact that our featured artist, internationally known as Mr. Guitar, A.K.A. Chet Atkins was indeed a superbly influential and innovative guitarist in his own right. We feature 5 of his late 1950s to early 1960s albums plus bonus tracks which will give you a flavour of the range of Chet’s musicianship and a man who won the Country Instrumentalist of the Year award no fewer than 9 times between 1967-1988.
