About
Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed were two of the most fearsome fretmasters ever to enter RCA's Nashville studios, and this was the second of their two early-'70s duo albums. An all-instrumental affair, it features the guitar titans doing what they were born to do—making some of the most glorious sounds ever to come out of a six-string. The pair blow past genre boundaries at will, tackling everything from the jazz standard "Limehouse Blues" to the Elvis Presley hit "Mystery Train," trading licks in a manner that makes it seem like you're listening to a single guitarist with four hands. There’s an abundance of melodic, lyrical lines pouring out of their axes on this GRAMMY®-nominated outing.
