I just bought a fairly old Chet Atkins album titled Sails. It has Mark Knopfler, Earl Klugh and a host of other Jazz artists on it. Excellent album to be sure.

Aussies: The ABBEY ROAD NOW! tribute cd which comes with the current issue of MOJO magazine is worth having, even if you are a dyed-in-the-wool Beatles fan.:Don't tell anyone:
Merry Christmas to all of you Altec fans.

Good sounds?
Try Steve Miller "Born to be Blue" Excellent blues classics...VERY well done.
Anything Patricia Barbour.....My duplexes with subs completely disappear........it's unreal. 300B PP IT coupled tubes baby.
Chicago Tranist Authority also get it done.....
And for horns! Tower of Power! All of em, recordings vary a bit....but wow.
So many more I would use up the bandwidth here......

I've actually been thinning out the Chet from my LP collection.
'Me and Jerry' however will remain perennially in the hot rotation bin.
Nice synergy between Chet and (generally underrated?) Jerry Reed.
* lala.com is a reasonably good way to preview stuff.
Me & Jerry may not be up there, but 'Jerry's Breakdown' ca 1978 is, and gives you an idea.

I have the Chet "Master and his Music" CD. Like it. The duo with Dolly Parton is one of my fav test tracks.
Do I Ever Cross Your Mind 2:40
Good stuff!
Must see if I have this one in the collection (don't think so).
IME, Recording/production of Chet's music seems to emphasize hard paning in the stereo field, particularly during duets (like this track). Often it is pleasing.
On 'me and Jerry' the back of the album even denotes who is on the right and who on the left.
yeah, hard pan left and right. Guitars more than voices - on that track.
I use it as a reference for placement, detail, tonal balance. Simple little ditty, but very enjoyable. And I just love to hear Dolly giggle. :D
Yes indeed!
