Chet Atkins - Finger-Style Guitar (1961)

One of the most famous guitarists to ever come out of Nashville, Chet Atkins is know for his country instrumentals. Finger-Style Guitar is less country & more classical. It's full of Waltzes, Rhapsodies, & a few surprises. There are very little in backing instruments, just Chet's signature guitar in all it's glory. His version of In The Mood is right in the pocket of what you'd expect. Just don't expect this to be one of your party favorites. I'd call it perfect for a lazy Sunday morning, especially the stand-out cover of Unchained Melody. Intimate is the only word that can describe it.
