Looking for "kentucky" instrumental by Chet .

Post by Frank »

HI Folks. I`ve been looking for that instrumental i guess about 2 years now and can`t seem to find it in any of Chets albums as far back as i can go. I had it on an 8 track back in 66 along Boo Boo Stick Beat, and some other good instrumentals.
Any help will be appreciated
thanks much Frank.

Frank,

If you don't get help here go to the
GFGA (Georgia Fingerstyle Guitar Site).
They have a FretBoard Forum much like this one with many Chet enthusiasts.
They will know.

I just did a search of my music and I have tab for Kentucky by Chet transcribed by Bob Paff 1999 as played at a live Chet Atkins performance "Austin City Limits" which is on a video "Legends of Country Guitar".

Frank, I'm gonna email you a guitar tab-out
of 'Kentucky'. You will need to download
a demo version of the program [does not take long at all] in order to hear the music.
If you decide you do not want to download the program, that's cool too. I'll send you the file and the link and you can decide what you want to do with it. It is a great
guitar tab/music program, however.
