Summary: Charming Momento for Chet Atkins & Jerry Reed fans
Review: As a fan - this DVD is priceless. It's literally like being in the living room with long time friends. Their performances are excellent, relaxed, humorous, and impromptu. For example Chet says, "Play something, Jerry. I forgot my capo," and walks off the stage; and where everyone tries to help Jerry plug in his guitar.

As a musician - I was disappointed with the camera work. Too many close ups of faces during key guitar solos. Close ups of the right hand picking, but never a close up of the left hand soloing. The camera person was obviously not a guitar player and didn't seem to know when a solo started or ended, or sometimes who was even playing it. Nevertheless, Chet's hilarious, but very credible distorted whammy bar rock solo, and his inability to pull off a riff in The Claw, were just two priceless moments of humor and humanity from these two flawless masters of the guitar.
