Here's another one that I hadn't seen before, from 1969:

Thanks for sharing that Chuck! You are an okie-dokie-okie! Never seen that before. Chet was playing "my" guitar. Mine is just like that orange Gretsch, without the Supertron tho. That was probably one of the best performances audio-wise that I've ever seen of Chet. That studio or TV station must have really had a good sound engineer. And all those superlicks at the end were great!!! Chet looked super. Reminded me of all those times I scanned TV Guide and found out when he was gonna be on. I threatened EVERYBODY to git out'a the way and BE QUIET so I could watch and record on my old reel-to-reel. Boy, those were the days. I would then make a mad dash out to Gibson's or Woolworth and check the Chet-bin for new LP's. Great stuff!! Steve

Steve, I hadn't thought of Gibson's discount store in a long time. We had one in Sapulpa, OK when I was a kid. Of course they went out of business when Walmart came to town. TG&Y lasted a little longer. TG&Y had expanded to a "TG&Y Family Center", but they still couldn't compete.
