C.G.P.


C.G.P. is the fifty-fifth studio album by Chet Atkins. It was released in 1988 by Columbia Records. The initials in the title refer to the Atkins-coined title "Certified Guitar Player", a moniker he assigned not only to himself but other guitarists he admired and felt contributed to the legacy of guitar playing.
Atkins performs a rare vocal tune on the live rendition of "I Still Can't Say Goodbye".

Reception

music critic Richard S. Ginell wrote of the album; "...the level of material is somewhat higher than it had been on some earlier albums, boosted by a handful of superior rock tunes."
