This is a fantastic and most inspiring version of this tune that I enjoy a lot in my futile attempts to learn.But which is the "original" recording? I tried getting a Jerry Reed version on a CD but only ended up with the "wrong" Struttin'. Here on Youtube is a Jerry Reed performance of the tune (which seems to be from a TV performance) but it is hardly "The" original? In particular I'm curious about that fast run in the end which is not on the Reed performance. Did Chet Atkins make that up? I'm clinging to the hope that it was a later addition :-)

Besides flawless technique, you might be one of the most "musical" guitarists I've heard play. Incredible 'feel' and style, true artistry. What a pleasure to here you play, c'est magnifique! I gotta put you in the same sentence with George Benson and Tommy Emmanuel; different genres, but probably the two best I've ever heard. Impressive is an understatement..... world class would be a better description. :D
