A lot of us know Chet Atkins. One of his best known songs, I’d say, is Windy and Warm. That song was written by John D. Loudermilk. He was an American songwriter. He wrote many hit songs for many different people, and kept a few for himself.
Any way, he also wrote this song that Chet recorded called Cloudy and Cool. Way lesser known than Windy and Warm. It’s kind of a novelty. Many tricky aspects to it. But pretty fun to play. I’ve been working on it this evening and thought some of you may get a kick out of this one, so I took a quick video. This was very impromptu. Id like to try and perform it somewhere. The challenge is keeping the thing in tune. Being a little off makes for a cringy little while. Ill just have to keep playing it.JFL

Oh man, JFL, that was just a fantastic performance! I was totally entertained, not only by the immaculate thumbing and picking, but also the whimsical tuning changes! We don’t see that often here on Active Melody, if ever! It sure sounded like fun to play, you had your inner Tommy Emmanuel shine in this impromptu recording!
