Hello everyone today I want to share with you my attempt at Blue Finger ( I think the song was written by Jerry Reed) since 1973 "Alone" album by Chet Atkins.


I got the inspiration for playing this fantastic songfrom Greg Koch, where in his youtube Wildwood Guitar heading showed the famous Chet lick, in the final part of the song.

I used my gretsch 6122-1959 attached to my Fender Twin Reverb blackface reissue 65 Amp !!!!!!!!

I added a simple drum line using Band in A Box

PAOLO.

Spadaro, that was very nice! You have inspired me to learn it again! I learned this song in the early 70's when the record was first released and I was part of a gymnastics team that performed all over Michigan and was asked to perform "Blue Finger" after the intermission. It was very strange to me to perform this as part of a gymnastics program but the audience always liked it! I will learn it again and maybe change the arrangement a little. Thank you!
