Every time Radio Paradise slows things down too much (especially with extreme elevator music like Primavera), Radio Paradise goes off and I end up dialing in Radio Caroline or Sky FM. I saw Chet Atkins in Fargo before he died, so maybe I have a different connection, but that's what so many of us love about RP. Keep it coming—up, down, and around! Incredibly delightful concert, by the way! [ Reply ]

nook Oct 16, 2012 - 13:47	you and me both friend. Saw Dave play in Oakland at Yoshi's a couple of years ago, and he blew me away. I've never had the chance to see Chet play live, but TV, videos, duets with other like Mark Knopfler, plus the fact that I pretend to play a 12 string so I think I have a clue, all tell me that man was a giant among those who actually play. He and Leo Kottke are my guitar heros, each for his own reason. Collectively they do things with ONE instrument that pretty much defy logic. AlienRelic wrote: I want to ride on THAT elevator.

V-bro Mar 25, 2012 - 08:35	It is when stuff like this is sounding so smooth and easy that it is in fact not, but incredibly hard to play it sounding so effortless. It takes a master of the guitar... Jawdropping track! [ Reply ]
unclehud Feb 06, 2012 - 13:43	Well, well, well! Chet's chillin' and it's mighty fine. [ Reply ]
Seahunt Dec 21, 2011 - 05:10	What a great version. Didn't even think of this (duh). Trying to learn it on guitar and now I have a new study version. Thanks RP! [ Reply ]
Kokoloco53 Nov 19, 2011 - 11:17	Children, children, eat your broccoli, finish your homework, then grow up and appreciate Chet Atkins. I'm 57 years young and never really appreciated Chet's stuff until later in life. You youngins has got all the rest of your days to dig it. Dig it? [ Reply ]

Is there such a thing as an "unhackneyed cliche"? [ Reply ]
billyfields Sep 01, 2011 - 10:17	Had I heard this anywhere else I would have dismissed as elevator-ish and gone back to my usual distracted thoughts.. When RP plays this kind of stuff, following my perfunctory WTF .. I try to give the music its due. In many cases I learn something. Listening to Atkins and remembering this is one fellow on an acoustic guitar (not a 10 piece orchestra) kind of overwhelms. [ Reply ]
