Chet Floyd & Boots is the title of a recording by Chet Atkins, Floyd Cramer and Boots Randolph. Boots had a novelty hit with "Yakety Sax" which Chet covered in "Yakety Axe" for his own hit. Cramer was a denizen of the Nashville studios, playing a multitude of sessions from Elvis Presley to Brenda Lee, helping to define the "Nashville Sound" that Atkins had helped develop and succeed with. The trio briefly toured together.

Chet Floyd & Boots was originally released on RCA's budget label, Camden. It was also released on the Pickwick label and re-released on CD in 1992 by Special Music.
