Sweet Alalee

This is a tune written by Chet, but also played by Paul Yandell. I always think of Paul when I play this tune, although I was a little timid about playing it in front of him. I have worked up 3 or 4 different arrangements of this tune, but this is the current version I came up with this afternoon. My life has been enriched immeasurably by the music of Chet Atkins, and Paul was always so kind to help me with a few stumbling blocks along the way. I hope you enjoy the recording.

Real nice, Richard! I bet both Chet and Paul would like it. I know I do. I wish we lived just a little closer so I could steal some licks.
