Lenny Breau Plays and Discusses Technique with Chet Atkins and Liona Boyd: Nashville 1979

In 1979 Canadian classical guitarist Liona Boyd went to Nashville to record an album with Chet Atkins, John Knowles and John Pell called "The First Nashville Guitar Quartet". A documentary film was made of her visit which featured scenes of Liona visiting the Country Music Hall of Fame and playing and talking about guitar technique with Chet and Lenny Breau. The video quality here leaves much to be desired but we hope the audio makes up for it. Although the introduction is not related to Lenny, we left it in for Chet fans and the background music, which is played by the trio and features Lenny on lead.
