Chet Atkins "Back To Old Smokey Mountains"

The Smokey Mountains are gorgeous! And Chet's arrangement can put the vision in your mind's eye of the "birds in the trees, and the honey bees, clinging to the honey suckle vine"..Chet's guitar music makes you feel like you are there!

@thummy09 Yup. Very distinctly Chet! It's little touches like that which set him a apart from the crowd.

Could you possibly get "Blue Guitar" up on here, from the same 'Hometown Guitar' album.

[daffydoug]

@jacobpaleschic I uploaded blue guitar a long time back.

Sitting here in the hills of Tennessee on this sunny tuesday morning....I remember the first time i heard this song...and I still love it.

One of my all time Chet favorites! His guitar paints a picture. I've never been there, but through the music, I have.

What the....I like the song, I long the man. But I was on Ultimate Guitar.com looking at tabs for Daft Punk, and one of the tabs was labeled "Back To The Old Smokey Mountains."

Yup. It's real soothing the way Chet plays it. I have listened to it a million times over the years.

What a great solo Chet plays on that one!

Thank you for posting all these songs! Could you post Smokey Mountain Lullaby of the "The day the fingerpickers took over the world"-Album with Tommy Emmanuel? Would be great!
