| Does anyone know the name of the little Chet Atkins piece that BS plays during his explanation of fingerpicking on the Hot Licks DVD?
Thanks

| It's been awhile since I've watched that one, but could it be "Hidden Charms", also the last track on Original Cool? I think I also saw him perform an Atkins' tune, maybe this one, at one of the music awards ceremonies about 5-10 yrs. ago, maybe for one of those "Lifetime Achievement Awards".
Don't know if that helps ye or not, but figured it was worth a shot.

| I'm gonna have to agree with you. I checked out an old, black & white Chet Atkins version and a Setzer version on youtube, and compared to the little number Brian does in "Hot Licks", I think it's just an adaptation. Chet plays that part much softer in the videos I've seen on youtube. Here's Chet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoHeMlh_8A0Check out Brian's amped-up version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oxf6QuhGqiYStarting around 0:23 in that one, that little riff sounds the closest to a match (just a million times faster!). Whaddya think? | |

Cristo you sure got a kean ear on ya Thanks! Now, if I could just get that signal to transmit from my ear, through my brain, and into my fingers for my guitar-playing... oh, well! | |
