I have seen them and am hosting them in January at a house concert.

This is VERY impressive & a nice piece of history!
-
God - the mastery of harmonics at that age!!!!!
-
as a guitar player for 50 years, it is such a joy for me to watch this....chet's encouragement for richard comes from a deep love of guitar music, there is no thought of competition....what pleases me so much is just the idea that chet atkins music will never die! also, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Also, this video demonstrates Chet's humility, in that he purposely allowed himself to be upstaged and it never bothered his ego a bit.
-
Richard at very young age and destined to become a guitar monster and a force to be reckoned with in later life!

@scarified101 Its little rock getaway good ain;t it!

I have had the good fortune to have met Richard of course he was a little older than he is in this video but man can he pick and such a nice guy he took time to show me a few licks he has improved ten fold since this video
-
@thistle876 I sent Paul Yandell an email asking him about this. He did Say that Him and Chet stayed at Richards house and that Richard is one of the best. Would like to know myself why the CGP title wasn't given to Richard. I have to agree and would also like to see Richard and his wife perform.

This to me is one of the most historic video's on youtube, Why? As many know there are only a few real child prodigy's born in ones's lifetime, The second is seeing Mr Guitar himself so amazed by someone's guitar playing. History says Chet was bowled over by Jerry Reed, but that was no 11 year old boy, This is a real piece of music history. Please always keep this video alive for all of us real Chet or "Atkinsfan"s something to look forward to seeing. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
