Chet Atkins, a very influential force in country music as a guitarist and a record producer, always enjoyed playing swing standards, recording many concise versions through the years.

Stanley Jordan is a master at tapping his guitar which allows him to sound like two or three guitarists at once, often operating as a one-man band.

The two shared the stage in 1990 and they clearly enjoyed each other’s company during “Sweet Georgia Brown.”
