Chet Atkins Picks on the Beatles

by: Chet Atkins

Release Date January 30, 1996
I was blown away by how good this CD is. George Harrison says, in the liner notes, "I got the feeling that these songs had been written specifically with Chet in mind," and you'll know what he means after listening. The arrangements are masterful and the guitar is stellar. The only negative is that it sometimes has a 60's groove that's a little funky (and not good funky) but this is not a big deal. Every track is good and some are better than excellent, I'll Follow the Sun and If I Fell come to mind but the whole work is simply outstanding.
