Chet Atkins "Laura's Theme"

[seaside882000]

chet was the man. This is more proof.

[bruiser]

Porter added some real class to this particular show. Wonder what Buck Trent thought of that?

[crawlinjohn]

Nylon stringed! I'll betcha he could cut a classical music album.

[Mr90Blues]

@crawlinjohn he could everything,because is god....

[thegrigg]

breathtaking!

[MrJivago19]

the correct name is LARA!!! not LAURA... she was a character to Dr. Jivago history! and this song is a theme of the film!

[BobMillahhh]

@MrJivago19 Well, Mr. Spelling Nazi... everywhere I've ever seen it, the origin of this song is "Dr. ZHIVAGO", not Jivago.

[BobMillahhh]

@nineveh420 hahaha, touche.

amazing...you know I heard he was one of Earl Klugh's favorite players back in the early days and influenced Larry Carlton and Stanley Jordan as well-George Benson recorded with him on a hit album as well..,check out " Chet Atkins, George Benson & Earl Klugh -- Oh Lonesome Me " also check out "Chet Atkins with Earl Klugh, Larry Carlton & George Benson - Stay Tuned Album Release" also "Earl Klugh, George Benson, Chet Atkins ~ Manhã de Carnaval "

wow what a fantastic melody.......love this guitar player

[Benj888]

Everytime I think that I've outgrown Chet Atkins he reminds me that I'm a moron with a new recording I find of him.

[joselitomarjarino]

It would be great this melody played together with liona boyd, it would be necessary to ask to him(her) that would make a fantastic duet, be that as it may it is always good, joselito

[guitaraaron72]

I love Chet Atkins.

[blitzspeer]

Great interpretation of the song and reminds me of being at my grand parents around the holidays back when I was a child.

[sisov]

Never fails to inspire, good one on ya Chet

[musictranscription]

Do you want me to transcribe it?

[bee7wax3]

artificial cascading 'harmonics' are beautiful at the end of this arrangement--i know tommy emanuel says that he (himself) learned the technique in a dream - sleeping, he dreamed he saw chet come out on stage and play this & so he learned the technique by watching it closely, only it came to him in a dream, much like McCartney's song 'Yesterday' came in a dream.( i had to sweat and slave for hours with only the recordings to guide me and my own discernment to learn this technique for myself

[Claire1Rogers]

can u please teach me?

[dmmc1043]

nice but it's called Lara's the me not laura

[someoldbag]

Yes, "Lara's Theme" from the flick, Dr. Zhivago.

[Jsnmcd]
