Earl Klugh names his top influence as being Chet Atkins.

@hsmarlon a remainder about this tone w/ Chet Akins was astounding and all other appearance w/ Earl Klugh back in the day I will always be remember.

Amazing trio

[TheBrettHughes]

Believe it or not there is a whole show of this somewhere out there. I remember seeing the entire thing. It was from a P.B.S. show called soundstage.

1 dislike goes to the guy who can't play that last lick. Holy smokes, that was insane!

[PabloPancho100]

This is Totally Awesome - - -! They should have done a World Tour!!

[mademepickaname]

This is awesome, thanks for uploading! Three players, all absolute masters of different types of technique, Chet a finger picker, George a flat picker, and Earl with a classical style. The end result is unique and beautiful. Interesting, George appears to do a little finger picking at :50. I don't think I've ever seen that from him before.

Hard to believe there's one clown out there that actually voted "dislike"!

[Xiphosss]

1:45 - Django phrase! I like that.

[afoolonahill]

do you reckon wearing an unbuttoned shirt with tigers on it makes you a more powerful lover? i gotta get me one! lol

[DUGGER1947]

Brilliant rendition of this Don Gibson country classic, with just enough jazz & blues styling from George & Earl to make it an instant classic version! I've heard Chet play this differently on multiple occasions and I think his work here is the best to date.

[palehorseone]

Bravo indeed. Masters all. I still miss Chet

DEProf06.... I TOOO TAPED IT FROM A CASSET TAPE FROM TV THAT FINALLY GAVE WAY...

[realufos]

@gitpa1 if you can, please tell me how to get this entire show. thier is a song earl klugh played with the keyboard player, that im trying to find for the last 20 years. cortezmac@yahoo. com, is how you can reach me. thanks

[xXironraiderXx]

chet definitely brings it home at the end.... i'm completely convinced that there isn't a single idiom of music that George Benson doesn't OWN.. he's like a music Chameleon he can play anything

[GZ1LH2]

All of these Guys are the best we have, but I have to say, Old Chet brought it home at the end

[DEProf06]

I remember when this was on PBS Soundstage. I had an audio recording of it that finally gave out.

Do you have any of the other tracks from that show? the whole thing was great. I see Manha de Carnival has been posted. There was also Starts & Stripes (Chet), Cry A Little While (Earl), and other oustanding stuff. I

[JazzyZenBrotha]

Wow! That was great musicianship. Chet displayed some excellent skills. But it's funny because George Benson is so competative and he showed off his amazing abilities too. I wish I could have seen this live. But I'm a youngin and wasn't born when this concert took place so that couldn't have happened anyway.

[guitarlvr54]

Pure genius at work x3!!! What a super combo of talent on that stage! George doesn't even have to look at the fingerboard either when he plays. Earl k. just keeps the rhythm going,too. Great post,thanks,Chuck. - G.L.54

[viniguitarjazz]

BRAVO !
