Active throughout the 1920s and '30s until his tragic death following a botched tonsillectomy, Eddie Lang, the first bona fide jazz guitar virtuoso, had a background in a wide range of musical genres, as this brief best-of attests. Beginning with a fragment of a Bach prelude, he breezes through the hot jazz of "Pickin' My Way," the sentimental "April Kisses," the bluesy "Eddie's Twister," and the delicately romantic "A Little Love, a Little Kiss," both solo and accompanied by his fellow guitarist, the equally talented and legendary Lonnie Johnson.
Recording information: 04/01/1927-01/15/1932.
Personnel: Eddie Lang (guitar); Eddie Lang; Justin Ring (chimes); Lonnie Johnson, Carl Kress (guitar); Frank Signorelli, Rube Bloom, Arthur Schutt (piano).
Liner Note Authors: Steve Calt; Stephen Calt.

Purchase Jazz Guitar CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Kenny Burrell Ellington Is Forever, Vol. 2 CD (1977)
Jazz Guitar album
$9.89 Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1994, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
The modus operandi of Ellington Is Forever, Vol. 2 is essentially the same as the first; Kenny Burrell gathered a great bunch of musicians together in a studio for a relaxed yet masterful tour through some of Ellington's best-known material. The sole exception to the Ellingtonia is the Strayhorn-penned "Take the 'A' Train," a song that will forever be associated with the Duke. Jimmy Jones provided a stunning solo reading of this composition on the first volume, but it gets a full band treatment on Vol. 2, and features a fantastic solo from Burrell, a bluesy romp through the changes. In fact, the leader seems to be a bit more present on this album compared to Ellington Is Forever, Vol. 1. This is not to say, however, that the excellent contributions of the many musicians on this ...

| | Mike Bloomfield Super Session CD (1968) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Jazz Guitar music CDs
$6.75 A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals ...
| | Sonny Landreth Mississippi Blues CD (2010)
Jazz Guitar songs
$10.25 The 2010 issue of Mississippi Blues by Sonny Landreth on the Fuel 2000 imprint is not a new album, nor is it a representative compilation of his oeuvre. In fact, the set is a complete repackage of the album entitled The Crazy Cajun Recordings originally issued on CD by Great Britain's Edsel in 1999. The material ...

| | Guitar Shorty Bare Knuckle CD (2010)
Jazz Guitar CD music
$13.90 Bare Knuckle is the first Guitar Shorty album to appear in four years. He won the W.C. Handy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album of the Year for We the People in 2006. That record, which showcased his rugged, showy style of electric blues in a variety of song settings -- not the least of which were his originals, which had a socio-political bent -- sent blues fans to the record stores in droves. This set picks up where We the People left off, with the killer "Please Mr. President," which pleads for Mr. Obama to "lay some stimulus on me." There is no irony in the lyric. The man's serious as cancer and it shows in his biting leads, his shouting vocal, and the everyman tone in his delivery. Produced by longtime bassist Wyzard, Shorty is backed here by keyboardist Alex Alessandroni, and drummer Harold Seay (with the exception of two tracks where Alvino Bennet, his former skin man contributes). There are ...
