C. B. Atkins & C. E. Snow by Special Request, (also known as simply by Special Request), is the title of a recording by Chet Atkins and Hank Snow, released in 1969.

History

Atkins and Snow had a history of collaborations—their first single was "Reminiscing" and they had a hit single in 1955, a guitar duet called "Silver Bell."

Snow was a regular at the Grand Ole Opry and had a long and illustrious entertainment career. Atkins rose from radio and session work to become not only a performing and recording artist and producer, but also an executive at RCA.
