Deep in my French countryside, I am so sad to learn of the death of Tony, so elegant in his playing and his attitude. RIP

[@stanfluellen2689]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts from across the water. Blessings on you, friend.

[@joeyguy1952]

Some of the greatest string instrument performers ever

[@daf827]

Holy cow, I’m surprised the stage didn’t collapse under the weight of those musical giants!

[@bigfootdean]

Agreed

[@deleted_why]

I'm watching Chet's reaction to each break before his and I'm seeing, on his face... "what the hell am *I* supposed to do to follow *THAT*?!"... (lol) I think of Chet as mostly a solo player... but he fit right "in"... and his break had it's own flavor. I was proud of him! Thank you for posting this!

[@guibox3]

The greatest musicians in their field all in one band. Jeez. Damn, Chet was so smooth at raking.

[@jeteye97]

And they fade out on the bass solo. That guy was playing tasty throughout.

its kind of disrespectful

It's always the bassist who gets shafted. Damn.

[@hub1awb]

the guy played his solo the whole way through the damn song. talk about disrespectful

[@charlespinckney1813]

The last farewell Yes, but the bassman always gets the chicks!

[@alisonrist3706]

Thanks for the music, Tony!

[@rbrazil1000]

Back when only talented people were on TV

[@JacobThomas-kk1jk]

There is much truth to what you say

[@kylecravens8052]

Back when you could see things like this on TV. Growing up in Nashville I feel fortunate to have seen so many of these people perform, and am so proud this legacy.

[@HikeColorado]

Such a joy to watch this! OMG they’re all so talented. Just saw Jerry Douglas last year with Derek Trucks at Red Rocks. Amazing ❤

[@ezekielbrockmann114]

That bass is just devine. Without it, all the barnyard animals would all get out!

[@jonnnyl9567]

What an awesome video, thanks Mark!! Incredible talent all on one stage! Pretty clear that there's incredible mutual respect between Tony and Chet. Wonder why Tony never got a CGP honour from Chet, Tony is clearly up there with the best, maybe even beyond? Maybe Tony was so good, it would've felt weird for Chet to do it

[@lftdv]

What an absolute legendary lineup!

[@toddjohnson271]

Even Chet Atkins is like "Dang, Tony Rice is a beast".

[@elliotportner8020]

Tony was classy and held his talent and music highly Rest In Peace Tony God is with you sir

[@rscottenglish]

Bluegrass is country swing...mountain jazz!

[@claudiakathleen]

Thanks for uploading this one! Just wish the bass solo hadn't been cut off ;-( Otherwise...what a line-up!

[@adamkeenan5707]

I bet Tony was a huge fan of Chet given him being a huge jerry reed fan and I've no doubt Chet respected him equally.

[@rbarrett4220]

And Chet says ; Boy do I make these youngins sound good :)

[@MrTomanderson76]

What I like especially is all the while these fantastic country/bluegrass musicians are playing, if you listen close a fantastic jazz bassist is playing in the background!!

[@joepalumbo9150]

And they cut him off at the end there. wtf???

[@joewilliamson9507]

Is it legal to have this much talent on stage? What a fantastic gathering of great musicians.

[@carsonives5852]

I didn't know a collaboration of Chet Atkins and Tony Rice existed! My two favorite guitarists

Gotta find room somewhere for Roy Clark and Glen Campbell. --not bluegrass, but still good.

RIP Tony, You'll be around for a long time for a lot of us, but you'll be missed!

[@jreimer9487]

a note at this point Chet had been dealing with pretty severe arthritis for quite awhile and still remained relevant to his art, much respect sir, much respect.

[@anncarr4035]

astonishing Tony Rice gives his best every time - graceful and humble and from his bones

[@Joeherman]

Holy Cow this is such an amazing performance. Thank you for sharing.

[@jscordoba3]

Chets my favorite guitar player, but I hated the tone of those gibson electric nylons.

[@AbsurdistAgent]

Look at Chet watching Tony haha. Great stuff.

[@gbaked]

The Seven Virtuosos. Enormous greatness.

[@ChuckDenk]

Seven great musicians, performing together. What a treat!

[@Primus-ue4th]

Chet- ‘damn, y’all is sloppy pickers’😂

[@johnfenner347]

Marvellous playing all round here. But medal goes to the Violin !. Moves through all the changes, and super at home with Jazz, as well as Country and all points west ! Brilliant !.

[@LanieB95]

That's a crazy amount of talent on one stage!

[@papa-vq7yv]

amen!

[@mhkeith829]

Agreed! Damn!

[@gabegamer3663]

Is nobody going to say anything about jerry playing with only 5 strings?

[@emiller9426]

Great lineup! Consummate performers!

[@ifolkinrock]

Jerry’s lick at 3:30 made me grunt out loud.

[@marcdunn7716]

awesome stuff. what a cast ! Bela s jacket takes the cake on fine apparel

[@javadude54]

And that, folks, is how it's done.

Hell yeah! Damn!

Death has taken them away but you tube keeps them alive

[@roeidavid5340]

Every player is so professional... And the bassist is just amazing

[@JamTrax]

this is ridiculous ;)

[@bjohnson515]

Is that George Bush or Chet Atkins?

[@KashiwaDaisuke]

Chet's solo is so catchy and elegant. And of course, Mark is a technical marvel as usual. I love it

[@Aquapaddler]

Beyond All-Stars.....

[@markkdarkk2988]

Great music improvised by Great musicians. A little too much Ralph Emery, however. Hey, KZbin, your app sucks HARD.

WAY too short

[@pdeere436]

is such a great rapper

[@chrishall1923]

For some reason this makes me feel like I'm playing Super Mario World.

[@MakeWeirdMusic]

What an unbelievable lineup!

[@truderenken3248]

I miss Chet Atkins

[@soofitnsexy]

BEST THERE EVER WAS

[@SvendIt]

Limehouse Blues - 1922 song written by Douglas Furber (lyrics) and Philip Braham (music)

[@Daves_not_here]

Chet did a couple sweep arpeggios at 2:35. Masterful.

[@soofitnsexy]

NOTICE HOW CHET SAID SO MUCH WITH A LITTLE....

[@Sluggo01]

Ok..there you have it....the best ever line-up..you can get.....I wish there was a line up that talented in pop music...oh yea there aren’t any..lol

[@maxwellfan55]

The best of the Best.

Chet's shaking his head in wonderment at 2:00 says it all.

I cannot stand to watch anything this blurry. 240dpi really? I wish video host websites would ban anything under 480 dpi.

[@deleted_why]

Chet Atkins AND Bela Fleck?! And Tony Rice?!

[@stevehinkley1530]

What a completely ridiculous lineup. I hope everyone there understood that this was a once in a lifetime arrangement. Unreal.

[@aagevaksdal]

What a bunch of groundbreakingly great musical minds. Thanks for all the joy and wisdom you have spread throughout the decades.

[@MAGAMANPATRIOT]

Talk about a stage brimming over with talent. I do believe if they had cut enough sides for an album I'd bought half a dozen because I'd wore em out.

[@UroboricNate]

Killer playing all around, would’ve loved to hear what Lenny Breau would’ve played here.

[@softailspringer9915]

Not me, I had nothing to do with it

[@christopherdiedrich40]

No kidding! Guess nobody cares about those hot bass licks! WOW!

[@rbenroper1654]

They probably went way over time to let everyone take their break. Remember, this performance was at the very end of the show. The bass would be the easiest to sacrifice. It would have been different if say, Chet were playing the last break. Then, they probably would have pre-empted the next show, and to hell with the sponsors..

[@grant724]

Wow.

[@agradywills]

There should be a law.

[@mpa417]

So much talent on that stage its scary.

[@bennyshaversmusic590]

David Grisman Tony Rice and Mark O'Conner are the epitome of professional.

[@brucekuehn4031]

Jerry Douglas There’s no weak link in that monster chain. But they all felt lucky to play with the legendary Chet Atkins.

[@haakonlenzi]

Honestly a travesty that it cuts out during that bass solo lol poor cat

How have I never heard or seen this before?!? Amazing!
