1964
If it's not classical it should be.
DeanO, talk about no flubbed notes.
This was played on a Gretsch 6120
Update: I can't find the exact album cover, even thought I own the album courtesy of inheritance from my Dad, but Fwiw, this picture is on the cover and the album was called Fingerstyle Guitar. There are some great old tunes on it. Moonlight Serenade, Petite Waltz, Malaguena and others all played flawlessly.
That was 2:49 of sheer bliss - I had to Google the guitar and found that the standard Gretsch 6120 sells for over 2 grand - I'm sure Chet used a custom Gretsch. Great post and awesome "clean" I mean "clean" guitar - that was Mr. Chet Atkins indeed
