Bowdiddley Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 If I had heard Jimi say that I would have told him he was tripping! Rory is fantastic but he's no Jimi IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rogerb Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Chet Atkins was on a cruise ship one time. he found an old guitar and was sitting in deck chair just playing to amuse himself.

[YOUTUBE'] [/YOUTUBE] i wish i could ask rory myself...r.i.p Yeah unfortunately that story's gone around about so many different guitarist it's taken on a life of its own.

A guy was listening to him and remarked " You're good but you're no Chet Atkins"! Chet Atkins said on quite a few occasions that Lenny Breau was the man.
