Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award winner Chet Atkins (1924 - 2001) was one of the most successful guitarists in history. As a country music producer, he was largely responsible for the Nashville Sound of the 1960's. His versatility and distinctive playing style has influenced many guitarists, apart from being admired by such diverse musicians as Paul McCartney, Leo Kottke, Earl Klugh, and George Benson.
