Pone estos Youtubes:
Wes Montgomery – Four On Six (1965)
from The Incredible Jazz Guitar
Saw him when I was 16! Truly an original, so inventive, smiled a lot!
Chet Atkins – Liza (The Clouds’ll All Roll Away)
from Finger Style Guitar
My absolute all time favourite, what a stylist, a country picking versatile genius!
Tal Farlow – Chuckles
from Tal
Speed isn’t anything without great ideas, Tal had them & he flew around wonderfully.
Les Paul & Mary Ford – How High The Moon
from The Very Best Of Les Paul & Mary Ford
Innovator & extraordinary performer, hits and guitars named after him!
Django Reinhardt – Nuages
from 1953 electric guitar recording sessions.
Known for his acoustic sound, his final sessions were on electric guitar, which I love.
Charlie Christian with Benny Goodman – Solo Flight
from Classic Roots Jazz
Everyone after him is considered ‘post CC’, which is evidence of this player’s total originality – the first single line electric guitarist !!!
Speedy West & Jimmy Bryant – China Boy
from Swingin’ On The Strings
These two! Amazing duo, hear them first on early Tennessee Ernie Ford 78 rpm, electric insanity! Steel versus Guitar!
Santo & Johnny – Sleep Walk
from The Best of Santo & Johnny
Beauty and lyricism together, the sound of the Fender steel, stunning still!
Big Bill Broonzy – St Louis Blues
from The 1955 London Sessions
When it comes to blues, I love acoustic blues in the shape of BBB. His voice is also amazing.
Sabicas & Escudero – Fantasia Andaluza
from The Fantastic Guitars of Sabicas & Escudero
Absolutely wonderful flamenco duo, work as one sound, and stretching across the music that is more Spanish than an orange!
