Description

My Favorite Guitars presents Chet Atkins at the height of his mid60s studio mastery, blending country picking, jazz phrasing, Latin touches, and pop standards into a polished instrumental set. The album highlights Atkins use of multiple signature instruments including his Gretsch models and classical guitars each chosen to match the tone and character of the material.

The program ranges from Brazilian bossa (One Note Samba) to Hawaiiantinged exotica (Moon of Manakoora), countrypop originals (Levee Walking, Travelin), and stylistic reinterpretations of standards (It Dont Mean a Thing). Atkins arrangement of Chopins Waltz No. 10 is a standout example of his classical crossover technique.

The Canadian pressing carries the LSP3316 catalog number, Living Stereo branding, and RCA Victors dogandgramophone labels with Montreal manufacturing credits.
