Earl is so soothing. You can almost go to sleep to his playing what greater compliment can you give.
Probably the most lonesome but beautiful melody I have ever heard. Thank you Chet and Earl. R.I.P C.A.
Why thank you sir! It was an honor to play with Chet and his friends. One of my fave tunes for sure...
GREAT performance! I remember watching on PBS in 1995. Was, Chet a big influence on you playing guitar? I've heard a lot of people like, Nugent, Jimi Hendrix and even, Slash said Chet Atkins was a huge influence on their beginning to play guitar.
This is a absolutely beautiful rendition of this Country music classic. Killer players all around. #respect.
Oje of the most beautiful pieces of music in my opinion
I listened to this again today. I'm in love again. This transported me to a very calm, serene place...
My gosh, I love these two guys Chet and Earl are my favorite guitar players! 👍
I first heard this song on Earl's "Magic In Your Eyes" album. This is one of the 3 or 4 most moving songs I've ever heard. It has a beautiful, melodic, melancholy about it that defies description. When I listen to this song, it almost brings me to tears: it's so simple, profound and direct. We are so lucky this was caught on tape. One often mentioned characteristic of genius is making the extraordinary look easy. Chet and Earl have few peers and they're artistry is clearly touched by genius.
That was a good album.
Two legends at the same time. Chet & Klugh make a beautiful duo
Old Chet has his resonator working. Peaceful sound!!! Thank you so much for posting this.
all time best guitar players performing the most beautiful music.One of my bucket list is to see Earl Klugh LIVE perform this at Blue Note.
So good.
Why is it simple yet compelling? This is genius.
simply sublime
Two masters performing one of my favorite songs of all time.
Love this so much! I miss entertainment like this. Thanks for posting.
beautiful !
Chet Atkins and Earl Klugh What a lovely performance. I wish I had the chance to meet Mr. Atkins. He seemed like such a lovely person. I read that he sighed Charly Pride the first AA country singer at a time during the Civil Rights movement and in the south no less. Chet also loved jazz. Well thank goodness for youtube and thanks for uploading this video.
Beautiful Soundz Indeed.
Beautiful music by these guys. I've always liked the bass and its great to see the upright bass in the back. Even Chet turns to look back at the bass player. Great job fellas.
Two of my favorite guitar players on the same song---what more could I ask for!
2 of the best ! Incredible
I recalled Earl and Chet in the early 1980's Austin Texas playing Goodbye Charlie. Both legands were magnificent !! Thanks for posting.
awesome combination of these two epic players! with an epic song!
When you play 2x times speed it sounds like an 80s love ballad
Beautiful in every sense of the word.
Doesn't get any better than this! Legends!
Beautiful song✨⭐️🤗💙😊
I love this!!!!I even play it now on solo piano its just a captivating tune! Here performed by masters.
🎶👏💓
nothing but beautiful
Chet as usual is always the ''King'' and the arrangement is simply beautiful, but I really dug David Pomeroy's playing and sound.
Thanks for posting this gem

For my bass'n buddies at Hell's Kitchen and the Grand Wash, I share Chet and Earl with you. This tribute and memories are all that's left.

magnifique
Quel duo, j'aime
Truly beautiful
very relaxing from the two greatest guitar players.. thanks for the music earl and chet
very nice song
thanx
Great Song!!!
simply awesome. Thanks Dave
Brilliant combination
It's a shame this doesn't have the words :-(
To:moncmon & mjaywill:I'm the biggest Chet fan ever. I was fortunate enough to be living in Nashville in 1980 when the taping of "A Tribute to Chet Atkins" TV show happened at the Opry House. I was there! Another youtuber got me to go on the internet to look it up under that name. I bought the DVD w/Earl & Chet playing GTCGTBlues that night. The tickets were $50.00 each, (a fortune back then), and a friend of mine got me two 4 free. DVD is good, but not enough Chet on it. Hope this helps.
How beautiful is this?
Gvd wat mooi!
The epitome of the term “less is more”
love that :)
thank you for posting it!!!
on youtube chet is on jerry reed show.when chet was young he got disillusioned ,he grew a bread and hop on a steamer and travel the ocean for a while working on the ship.One night there was a bunch of men and chet borrowed a guy's guitar and he played unbelievable.he give the guitar back and truly the guy said ,you are good but you are no Chet Atkins not knowing who he was.and he said did u ever see Chet,Chet said know but i heard of him. Ha.
@JazzyZenBrotha I believe its a Del Vecchio resonator, although he also used a Paul McGill resonator at times.
Set designed and created by Ben Livingston for Austin City Limits and Nashville Network.
👌🏻
The tone of the resonator against the tone of Earl's guitar makes for a nice contrast.
nice observation...agreed...I was Earl's Tour Manager 79-83...still keeps in touch...
That's a Delvechio Resonator-about $90 bucks in Brazil !
***** I don't believe they're being made, any more. And the 90 dollars is the tip of the iceberg, The guitars need truss rods installed, very often, a new fingerboard was needed--the frets were in the wrong place, those screens were made of cloth or paper--Basically, they needed rebuilding. The guitar may have only cost 90 dollars, or less--But another 2 grand to make them into playable instruments.
yeah-I was Earl's Tour Director in the '80's-grew up together...knew Chet well...his and Earl's mgr was my bff-passed away a year ago, Fred Kewley......my friend/neighbor/touring pal Darryl Dybka went w/ Chet after Earl's band, and wrote "What The Del Vecchio" on Chet's lp...lol..funny..but Chet AND Earl both loved 'em...ha ha..guess lipstick on a pig...lol..thx..FS
@EarwaveMusic You actually played with Mr. Guitar??? How marvelous. He was my guitar god growing up. I wish I could get hold of Caribbean Guitar. I miss that album so much. I lost all my vinyl in a moving wreck. Chets was among it.
hey your actually right! i've seen that vid before, now it makes sense that when i was lookin for it on my favorites i can't see it. please post it if you got the chance to have it! thanks! this vid was much shorter yeah.. i like the old one much better.
C'est une musique qui guérit
@EarwaveMusic Amen brother. Amen.
Thanks Dave for uploading a memorable session .Are you still playing sessions on bass?
please don't go to that site and download an mp3. This video was posted for the love of Chet and his friends and their fans enjoyment, not for anyone to steal - yes, steal - the music. The Music Industry has nearly been destroyed by piracy which unfortunately starts at home for far too many people. Sorry to be a stick in the mud, but I know Chet would back me up on this one. I posted these because they are not available commercially -yet. Please don't steal the audio or video!
Very soothing to the soul!! Thank you.
Anybody know where Earl Klugh is playing these days? Would love to see him!!
Still love the Okeefe version, for the
guitar lick.
@JazzyZenBrotha Good idea. I have a number of friends who play guitar. The resonator really lets them add a totally different sound, which can make all the difference for a certain song. All of the best guitarists master one specific guitar but always try different instruments to broaden their sound.
@sneezersneezer It's the best!
@jimraw1 - Thank you for the information. I'll need to get myself a resonator like Mr. Atkins. It'll be a nice addition to my guitar collection
Very rare that you see Earl Klugh play an electric guitar in concert.
It's not an electric, but a Sadowsky solid body nylon string guitar. Lee Ritenour can also be seen with one playing "Etude"
Can you play it without an amp? Because I've seen it plugged in but not sure you can play it acoustically because a solid body absorbs sound.
Two beautiful guitarists. Anyone know about the guitars they're playing here?
Where can I get the full video? Have seen many parts of it on youtube.
@ajames120 what's the nut width on your Sandowsky, and did you have to mortgage the home to buy it? :-)
@EarwaveMusic - What is the type of guitar that Chet Atkins is playing in this video? I would love to obtain one of those for my collection
brent mason in the background! :)))
'Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues' ~Author, composer and initial artist? Danny O'Keefe in Washington State, USA. One of the most beloved and copied songs ever performed or recorded ~ and by a plethora of global artists. Give the man credit where it's due. Visit his website for other gem-songs of his you heretofore hadn't a clue of who the artist was. Danny's the Real Deal. And has been for decades.
This is for Sharon W.
Is Earl using a Godin here? Looks like an old Multiac to me
I believe it was a Sadowsky.
Dave Pomeroy True, he only uses custom artisan made instruments, it’d be tough to find him ever using a mass produced instrument such as a Godin
atkins had many proteges jerry reed, mark knoplfer from dire straits. ive read he was an azz to work under production wise but he put out top shelf
Why does Chet have a locking nut on his resonator?
Please don't illegally download this tune. It was posted only because it hasnt been released on DVD and the world should be able to see it, but not steal it. Thanks!
looook that that strange guitar chets using, a resonator, but very very interesting
I didn't know George W can play!! lol
not sure about earl's guitar, but it might be a Sadowsky...
it could only be better if George Benson was also there
Elle est très belle. Mais Earl n'est pas trop électrque dirais-je.
Chet's dead.
Snorefest.
