They Say...
Since The Essential Chet Atkins concentrates on his instrumental tracks -- including hits like "Mr. Sandman" and "Yakety Axe" -- it functions as the best single-disc retrospective of the guitarist. It is also one of the only collections that concisely demonstrates his subtlely dazzling virtuosity.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
