the link seems to function better if you first bookmark it. (right click on the link in tom's post and select "Bookmark This Link") then open it from your browser rather than through this forum. |

Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast | That was awesome! Chet was who my Dad and I use to listen to with rapt attention. He was a one man band. I never saw anyone come close to Chet's abilities until now. I could spend the rest of my long life watching and listening to such talent.
Please don't misunderstand me... but that is music as compared to slamming power chords and running riffs. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE R&R, hard rock, classical, folk and etc. But when I hear the likes of the link. WOW!
Thanks for the link! Are there more like that? Feed me! |

Just picked up his cd "Endless Road" today. Haven't had a chance to hear it yet, but soon.
He's very entertaining to watch on youtube, too!

Edit to say...in the cd jacket, he lists which guitar he used after each song title. Cool! |
