This month's choice for the Album Club comes courtesy of Martin (high spirits). Martin has chosen 'Neck and Neck' by Chet Atkins and Mark Knopler.
Chet Atkins and Mark Knopfler - 'Neck and Neck'
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61XBXANT58L._SY355_.jpg
My choice this time around is an album I heard back in 1991 when auditioning some new speakers. I took my own selection to listen to, however the dealer suggested I listen to 'Neck and Neck'. I was so impressed I went down the road and bought a copy.
'Neck and Neck' is a collaborative album by American guitarist Chet Atkins and British singer-songwriter and guitarist Mark Knopfler, released on October 9, 1990 by Columbia Records.

The album demonstrates the guitar capabilities of both players and is an enjoyable listen with humour thrown in. I hope you enjoy it.
