There is no definitive answer to the question 'Who was the most influential person in the history of Country Music'?

From names like Wills to Acuff to Williams and many other you know.  Plus, names of people, behind the scenes, people whose name you don't know, but helped shape country music through the decades.

No, there is no 'right' answer, but there certainly is one name that is in the discussion.

'Mr. Guitar' certainly, but so much more.  Here, the late great Chet Atkins sits down on the Charley Rose Show back in the 1990's and talks about his craft and country music.
