I was excited to find this selection on Amazon and I ordered it right away. I think Les Paul is a national treasure and Chet Atkins is no slouch either. The music was a great disappointment. It sounds like they just sat down for the first time with no preparation and that each played gingerly for fear of outdoing the other guy. They succeeded so well that, in my opinion, the result is thoroughly weak. I also have very little use for the "Boys Club" style comments before during and after some of the numbers. This selection should be marketed as the informal practice session that it is. Normally, I complain about cd's offering significantly less than an hour of music. Here it's a relief.

this cd is just what I expected it to be. Both men are masters of their instrunebts and show it every bar of every song.

This album is a collection of Les's innovations and lick's played along the smooth and elaborate finger picking of Chet.
This is a re-issue of a prior album. The original had the first 10 tracks. Let me first speak about those.
This is a must have for an adult guitar player. Must have for anyone who likes good music played on a guitar. This is a really a national treasure to be enjoyed for years to come.
The album is really one of a kind. I have never heard of a similar creation.
The album is two guitar players, jamming, with limited backing heard from the studio team. The mastering of the work lets you listen to the guitar work. The guitar is the vocals and lead and rhythm. One might say the music tends to be mellow or dreamy to jazzy blues but more I'd say in the style of 50's recordings. The sound heard is the guitars of Chet and Les trading leads for many tracks. The music scores were ones that either may have made famous or covered or from their normal course of life. The music would be mostly known to adult listeners. The production includes no vocals other than the open mic's of Chet and Les joking and assorted studio jam session conversation. You really get the feeling that these two great players and producers sat down and cut this is an hour or two with.
Chet and Les are both famous guitar players, guitar shredders, technical wizards and masters of studio production. There isn't much in the music industry ... Read More

Undoubtedly two of the most casually expert guitar maestros at their
most entertaining best.

Two guitar Legends have a great time doing what they do best. A must have for fans of either Chet Atkins or Les Paul.
