@ozzyruleshere Thank-you!

the chet atkins george benson version is simply superb- a contrast in styles of country playing and the great jazz touch of george benson on his Ibanez guitar - simply incredible wOw !

[meesmeeleesa]

Does anyone know if Chet Atkins released anything similiar to this? Something that falls into the jazz/easy listening category? Thanks!

[daffydoug]

@meesmeeleesa This WAS Chet! It's just the unreleased cut of this tune, (I've also posted the released version)

Great Pictures to go with a lovely song. Thanks alot.

[daffydoug]

@pattykake19 Thanks Pattykake. Maybe someday I will re-do this one with my new, better technology.

[pattykake19]

Great job, Daffydoug.

[daffydoug]

@pattykake19 Thank you!

This is a duo with George Benson..

[brianmi40]

@BajanBamboo1 - I love Chet's contributions, but was a little sick when I heard this version. George Benson's solo on the released version is a classic of his playing style and was an incredible solo. Was greatly disappointed when the radio started playing this version...

[daffydoug]

@brianmi40 I think I posted the other version, too. A search will turn it up.

This reminds me of driving down in The Florida Keys one mid-September with a special woman. ... Good Memeries. ....

Ahhh...

That's what this amazing melody makes you do... Ahhhh.... :^) I just saw Chet on PBS in an old concert from '87 and he did this song SO well... He would have been 63 at the time and his touch was still at it's peak. David Pack of Ambrosia played George Benson's part and sounded like an amateur next to chet... but who wouldn't? R.I.P. Chet Atkins... Music City LOVES you... :^)

This song takes you to another place when you're stressed out. Chet really nailed this one. Great production with the strings. He was the best...no doubt about it.

daffydoug san Magic touch of Mr.guitar! This tune evokes the image of sun rise whose rays penetrate into the forest, make shine the white snow, and spread over the surface of the land and the sea, with the dark shadow at the opposite side. Beautiful pictures. Thanks for uploading of this unreleased version.

[daffydoug]
