World Music Nashville • John Knowles Performs "Blue Finger"

John Knowles, CGP, performs live at World Music Nashville. John recalls how the song "Blue Finger" was covertly taped by Chet Atkins while Jerry Reed was "noodling" with a guitar in the corner of Chet's office. Atkins shared the song with Knowles and both guitar players worked up the arrangement. As John says, Jerry Reed was in attendance of one of John's performances and Knowles played the song. Afterward, Reed and Knowles got together and John asked Jerry what he thought of that song. Reed replied that it was a great song and inquired about who wrote it. Great story.
