A tranquil, masterful performance that showcases the depths of jazz guitar.
This album by jazz guitarist Kenny Burrell is an early Blue Note album that combines technique and lyricism.
Burrell's guitar is at the center of this album, with each phrase possessing clear intent and color. The balance with the rhythm section and piano is excellent, and there is a sense of ease in the dialogue with the horns. Though the recording is mono, it maintains depth and airiness, vividly conveying the sound of the guitar strings and the movements of the fingers. The performance is calm yet conceals a hidden energy, and the composition deepens the further you listen. This is one of those masterpieces that demonstrates the standard of jazz guitar work.
