Some friends suggested that I share this video to Shadows sites also. I normally put it up on Facebook but here you go.

I hope you enjoy it.

Cheers,

Robby

Exquisite! Really enjoyed that, Robby - makes me wish I played finger-style.

Superb Robby; well done!

Lovely to hear that Chet's terrific arrangements and style are still being kept alive. He's always been my absolute favourite guitarist.

Thanks Noel. Never too late to learn it though. I started learning this style about 6-7 years ago, but only recently using a thumb pick which makes significant impact on the grooves

Thanks Keith.
Likewise, Chet was a very humble man who often considered himself a famous amateur! The more I learn this thumb style the more I admire Chet, realising how difficult it is to play.

Thanks again.

Thanks Roger. It really is fun to play and challenging at the same time.
