Biography

Althoff, a long-time Chet Atkins admirer, specializes in the recording of guitar music. It was at a Chet Atkins Appreciation Society convention in Nashville in the 1990s where he met Emmanuel for the first time. After Emmanuel had moved to Europe, Althoff played a key role in getting him started there, he aided in organizing concerts.[1]

Later, Althoff produced Emmanuel's collaboration with guitarist Jim Nichols titled Chet Lag (re-issued as Happy Hour) and recorded several more of the Australian's work. Emmanuel dedicated his composition Sanitarium Shuffle to him, referring to Althoff's Lippstadt home as his sanitarium.[2]

Apart from Emmanuel, he has worked with artists such as Jerry Donahue, Doug Morter, Ray Jackson, Clive Bunker, Rick Kemp, Joscho Stephan, Richard Smith and Gareth Pearson[3] among others.
