Rare, previously unreissued 1950 tracks from mint tests of transcription discs for mid-West radio. Chet Atkins plays guitar (or fiddle - 3 cuts) on all but one of 39 tracks (Maybelle plays on that one!). 8 are solos by him and he sings on 6. Wonderful! File alongside RFDCD 32 Early Chet Atkins, many from the same shows.
