Chet Atkins - Windy and Warm

[@luisdavid_1990]

Man, i'm so glad of this... That's one of the main reasons i love this Internet technology... i'll never be able to listen to this kinda of stuff if i had to choose between my progressive rock vinyls/cds/cassettes on a regular store on total blank... This tune, man.. I'll need to know more about this fella... Thx for sharing!

[@midnightaustin9287]

welcome to the future bro, glad you do your time travel.

Rithym and memory at the same guitar. The one and only CHET ATKINS

[@juliovergara4853]

Melody, excuse me

[@MaxWatkins-q2r]

John Laudermilk wrote the piece. Chet still Chet though

[@tomproctor.archive]

How amazing this exists. What a great snapshot of Chet playing this classic tune.

[@Glukanton]

He is so cool

[@0x8080]

Definitely one of my favorites. Chet had immense originality.

[@mm111303]

This is a lot easier to learn on guitar when you turn the playspeed to .75x speed in video settings, just sayin.

[@rosalievaneck2854]

Dear, Chet Atkins, Love your music. I had the pleasure of working for you as a follow spot operator at The Summer Lights Music Festival in Nashville, Tennessee. Thank you.

[@georgeheggie1274]

Never fails to make me smile, legend!

[@GMfish]

Best guitar player of all time.

[@soofitnsexy]

easily!!!

[@walterlane99]

With Porter Wagoner's hair so short, and the quality of the video, it shows that this performance goes way back. I didn't know Windy and Warm went 'that' far back. Great song played greatly.

[@haplessasshole9615]

Yeah, Wagoner's a lot slimmer, his pompadour is a lot lower, and Dolly Parton is nowhere in sight, so it's gotta be real early. John D. Loudermilk wrote "Windy and Warm" in 1961.

[@RushAustin]

Porter had a face made for radio but was a hell of an entertainer. I LOVE Doc Watson's version of W&W. Just saw Richard Smith live in Black Mountain, NC and he did his killer version (while paying copious tribute to Chet, Jerry, Doc, Merle, et al)

[@NuSikatto]

[@stringbender57]

This video is priceless! RIP Chester B Atkins.

[@giovannichamale1802]

You have to listen really close or you'll miss the singing. Goodness that makes the singing so much harder! lol Chet took it in stride with a smile. I learned you can do that piece of singing without sliding (1-3-5) that Am chord on in this video. Master Class all the way And he does it so smooth brilliant

[@trintinicorps9237]

This is music to my ears.

[@turolretar]

I don’t mean disrespect, but I think it’s just music

[@AlanCanon2222]

My dad had maybe 50 albums in his LP collection, and I know for a fact at least 8 of them were Chet... he had plenty of Mancini, too. I took guitar lessons from childhood and people tell me I play like Chet (I do the melody under the rhythm as best I can) but the thing is, I never made a study of Chet Atkins: if it really is true that my playing sounds as if it might be influenced by him, it's simply that, from babyhood, the first sounds of the guitar I heard were those made by Chet Atkins off vinyl. I love his style, and find that, indeed, I can play in that basic style (never as good as he) but it is a little bit weird to figure out the influence, after having other people point it out to me. Just musical osmosis. Since finding the specific recordings online that dad had on LP, I have quickly realized, yep, that's the "center" of what to me a guitar "basically" sounds like, to this day. I love Mr Atkins music, and reading of his "quiet life, down on Music Row."

[@BauKim]

This has been a similar case with me and Paul SImon's way of playing. My dad was a big Simon and Garfunkle and Beatles fan, and it's pretty funny how much my phrasing and melodic tonality seems to come from them. It's funny how we don't really notice our inspirations until much later.

[@thomasforsterjr9355]

Love it! Chet is the man.

[@752brickie]

Chet laid the groundwork for millions of guitar players like myself, though I was never good enough to even carry his guitar case!!

[@JackTheSkunk]

Chet's early version is the best in my humble little opinion. First heard it on an RCA single with Man of Mystery on the flip side. It's on You Tube, give it a listen.

[@emsapangaier3229]

Heart touching😃.my favourate one.thank u chit.

John D Loudermilk song, great songwriter.

[@ashsol2657]

They could have given credit to the songwriter. I don't think it's different today though :(

“Chet thank you so very very much. That’s real fine. We’re happy that, uh, we got the first shot at the singing on this.” Ha!

It's up to 3.1k now, but yeah -- this is great stuff. Atkins also performed a slower, more haunting version of "Windy and Warm" on S1E16 of _The Jimmy Dean Show._ It's just lovely.

[@johnvanhal2450]

No one knows Chet Atkins. And most who did, are dead.

[@razorsazors]

@@johnvanhal2450 i disagree, i think any serious country guitarist knows chet, especially if they are older than 30. you just cant learn fingerpicking without coming across chet or reed or any of the greats for too long

[@johnvanhal2450]

@@razorsazors There you said it. Any serious C&W guitarist. There aren't too many, especially outside the States. I'm almost 65 myself, Dutch. No one I know knows who Chet is, except my brother. And not because he's a lover of the genre, but because he loves everything guitar.

[@razorsazors]

@@johnvanhal2450 good point. Forgot there's a whole world outside of America

[@db5837]

In my collection the hit single was acoustic (nylon strings?) and the Gretsch version on a down home album.

[@0x8080]

I play this on nylon strings, but I learned it on a Gretsch. I just like the tone of nylon better.

[@merlinpearson4360]

Does anyone know if his guitar is in standard tuning or not? Many covers use a capo on fret 2.

[@bundr]

standard tuning!

[@merlinpearson4360]

@@bundr thanks!

[@midnightaustin9287]

TommyEmmanuel made his version on with capo second fret he sometimes play it with no capo also

[@mikmop]

@@midnightaustin9287 I think Tommy may actually play it with capo on the third fret. I'm pretty sure he does. He credits this to Chet's arrangement. Chet first released this tune as a single in 1961 and again in 1962 on his "Down Home" album, as it had become one of his signature tunes.

[@WilliamSheehan-z6l]

I've long noticed that Tommy Emmanuel, a great devotee of Chet, often hums over portions of many of the tunes he's performing. Maybe it's obvious, but it hadn't dawned on me that perhaps Tommy picked up that technique from watching Chet.

[@helluvagun]

A Gretsch!

[@randybock82]

A great big howdy!

[@R.L.KRANESCHRADTT]

Any idea what year this was? Thanks for posting, the Guitar Genius at work, what at treat. I've enjoyed butchering that tune for almost 50yrs it's my own personal tribute to the master. The story I heard was Chet had been doing a lot of 'jazzy' tunes and wanted to get back into something more country so he asked Loudermilk to try and write something for him... Windy And Warm was "it". .... and it still is. Iconic is too small a word. here's a link to the original '45' RCA 1961 recording: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqKUnnltiL-MoJI

I hear George Brassens. Weird. But cool. Awesome really.

[@jimmyjimmy7240]

Chet plays everything from blues to jazz, country to folk. He's so diverse, there may be some Brassens influence. But this is actually by a songwriter of Chet's, he didn't write it himself. John D. Loudermilk. More of a county folk tune with jazz/blues undertones.
