CHET ATKINS BLACK MOUNTAIN RAG

[chetsfrets]

Hello again spencer,,Stewart from scotland here, still ploughing my way thru your back catalogue...is this open A flat ?...another question re "cascade" if you dont mind.the harmonic section i can do but just cant get any volume on it even with a godin nylon guitar.pS look up CLATTY BELLA a week and a half to see what ive been up to musically...im the fat one. cheers spencer im enjoying my guitar again because of you.

Very similar to Chet live perfomances... One of the best YT versions for this piece! Congrats.....

[RolandSandberg]

This is actually the best version i`ve ever heard, great job! You should record as much as possible before those fingers gets worn out. Perfection!

[yescoal]

I take it that you do this for a living, and if you don't you sure could. Love the sound you have with the reverb or delay. It is just right.

[spencer1162]

I wish I did this for a living! I've been working as a metal fabricator for 28 years and my hands are wearing out,if only I could. Thanks for all your comments,

Spencer.............

[spencer1162]

Thanks, Im playing a Gibson Chet Atkins classic studio model,

Spencer.

[mcdoodad60]

That was every bit as good as Chet's live version. I really liked the runs at 1:06, 1:13, 1:56 and 2:04. Thay added some flair to the flow of the tune.

[spencer1162]

I don't usually mess with Chet's arrangements but that run just kinda came to me and fit well. thanks

Spencer.

[spencer1162]

Thanks,

Spencer.

[Mainer1945]

Effortless playing. That is what it takes... along with much talent. I guess they go hand in hand.  Thanks for sharing. Mainer in Thailand.

Too fast in my opinion.....

But great job anyways !!!

[spencer1162]

Yep, any faster and it might get sloppy. I like to play that one fast for the exercise, I don't get out much and its good for the cardio! Thanks for the comment,

Spencer.
