Here's a cover of Chet Atkins' Wheels. I've been learning this one for quite a while.

Hope you all enjoy!

Great picking, Andrew! I really enjoyed this one. Nice tone on the single note melody lines as well.

Well thank you Katelyn that's very nice of you to say that!

You get to my age and you wish that you had applied yourself at various things when you were younger. I hope you keep your playing going Katelyn because your playing is very special and you have a lot of talent!

Very nice! I always loved that song! I was always confused where to start ascending those triads and have them land exactly right, also those sliding 6ths. Well done! Al

Thanks very much Al - I can completely identify with what you are saying. I have trouble remembering all sorts things when I'm playing these songs. To get them up to speed and without too many mistakes I have to play them so many times over such an extended period it gets extremely repetitive!

Still it keeps me out of mischief :-)
