Buster's favorite Gus Kahn tune with a little Brooks twist. Recorded at Adalt-Studio, in Lippstadt, Germany, March 2012. Put on your headphones to enjoy that famous Adalt sound!

French for "Farewell My Friend", aka "Au Revoir Mon Ami". Buster wrote this tender piece to honor his friend, the most wonderful Marcel Dadi, who had died in the TWA 800 crash in 1996. I recorded Marcel's ballad "Je Te Veux" on my album "Into The Trees". What a player, what a writer!

Brooks Robertson plays Just Another Rag, Chet Atkins Convention, Nashville, TN, July 2015.

Another one of Chet's masterpieces, so relaxed and groovy, first published on "Me and Chet" by Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed in 1972. I played it with an extended intro that I heard Buster B. Jones play, although I'm unsure what the origin of the tune is.

In a place where so many Chet folks had been before, such as Tommy Emmanuel, John Knowles, Richard Smith, Pat Bergeson, Dave Pomeroy and others, I was in a Chet mood, of course, and had to pick one of his tunes. So here's a wonderful little melody for you, titled "To B Or Not To B".
