Great one of Tommy Jones

I ran into this clip of Tommy Jones doing his arrangement of Shenandoah. What really stood out to me was the introduction by Chet. Chet was so humble that he obviously did not feel the least intimidated by other guitar players who were very good players!

Doug, you may have known this but Tommy and I were good friends from when I first met him in 1976 until he passed away in 2002. I have a fair amount of personal VHS tape and cassette recordings of my time spent with him both when he lived in Nashville and then also at his home in Northern Florida. I need to get this uploaded to share with everyone. There are many stories I could tell you about the talented underrated guitarist who lived from 10/8/54 to 9-4-02.
