Kenny Burrell's live recordings capture the beauty of improvisation
A masterpiece full of realism, recording a performance at the Five Spot Cafe.
Burrell's elegant guitar playing unfolds in the tension that only a live performance can create. The selection of songs, centered around standards, demonstrates his deep musical education throughout the performance. The interplay with the supporting musicians is also superb, vividly conveying the atmosphere of a jazz club.
