Chet was one of the greatest guitarists ever - very few come close to him...  Nothing short of genius! |

Just pressed "PSD" button for the first time (Got tired of listening to Beth Orton - She cries your name after minute-and-a-half) and this gem comes up! I'm going to press "PSD" every other song if this is the result! :)

Breath of fresh air. Chet really influenced a lot of muzos.  |

I'm going to assume you made that Jimmy Page comment to get attention. ALL of them are "hacks" - in the sense that they were influenced by prior guitar greats. That shouldn't factor in to what they've all accomplished on their own. Acknowledge the influences, but also give kudos to what they produced as a result of their influences. Page more than paid his dues. (I'd add Brian May to this list, because dammit, he BUILT his own guitar.) I absolutely love Chet Atkins' music. It was the one guitar that Mom, Dad, and I could listen to in total agreement. I cherish those moments a lot more these days... |

What I noticed about that pic that's strange is that Page is the only one with long fingernails on his left (fretting) hand. That is definitely not what I'm used to seeing in guitar players.

Musta been painful for Chet's mama giving birth to that semihollow Gibson along with Chet.
