Paul Yandell, one of those unsung heroes of guitar. Paul lives on through his great playing and playing with others. Every time I listen to the Louvin Brothers, I think of him. Paul, you were great and live on in your great playing. Glad I had a chance to talk to you before you left us.
Thanks for posting this video. Paul was a great guy and was extremely intelligent. His remarkable talent has been much too often overlooked. He was also a very good at modifying and setting up guitars to make them sound as good as they could. Chet depended on him heavily not only as a side man but to keep his guitars in shape.
In the title it states the year as 1986. But at the very end of the video the date 1994 is displayed. However old Paul was at the time this instructional video was made Paul sure could play !!!
the perfect guy to "back up" Chet Atkins. If He ever felt a little off, tired, lazy, whatever, he knew this guy could fill right in and cover the parts.
The first section of this video is interesting for the exposure it gives to the Kentucky players from the mid-C20. What bothers me is that it makes no acknowledgment of the African-American guitar greats such as Mississippi John Hurt, the near-miraculous playing of Blind Arthur Blake, whose range of abilities makes other players look like simpletons. And then he was a songwriter, too!
@@Larry-v6j oh. Some of It’s recorded. I sat at their feet and learned to play those tunes. Look up Mississippi John Hurt. Elizabeth Cotton. Robert Johnson.

Many thanks! Iconic performances by master Yandell!
Great video! Thank you
Super!
How great a guitarist was this wonderful man? No wonder he played alongside Chet for years.

The video starts out saying Kennedy Jones died in 1990. You sure this video is from 1986?
Nowadays you only need to know 4 chords to be a "superstar": so what does that make Paul!

I wonder if you need to know chords or music at all these days when you listen to what’s out there…
Kennedy Jones was not the inventor of finger picking. Black players were doing in the South too.
Very definitely. A lot of music has been lost that was never recorded. A definite loss, and a definite shame !

Wow! Quite a player! Enjoyed immensely. Saw a few pointers I may try...
