"Buy this and Smokin at the Half Note, and marvel at Montgomery's amazing technique and the sustained quality of his ideas. (Plus two of the best jazz piano players you'll even hear)."
"An exceptional solo guitar CD. "Virtuoso" is the famous one , but I play this more. Its inspirational to hear Pass's solo work; he's a challenge to even the most gifted, ambitious guitar players."
"Ignore the "Gypsy jazz" comments. Reinhardt's improvisations in solo/small group settings are miraculous in any genre and still sound fresh/innovative. Technique on "I Saw Stars" is jaw dropping"
"A fantastic "late night" opening track. This is 5-star music; capturing the brilliance of not just Grant Green but the other musicians very well. Jazz guitar playing of the highest class"
"A totally enjoyable recording. Kenny Burrell's fine electric guitar playing is mixed "up close", with Stanley Turrentine's smokey sax . Not jaw dropping like Django, just brilliant"
"A wonderful album, famous for its exceptional version of the Concierto de Aranjuez. On some days, this beautiful track could brings tears to your eyes."
"Definitive jazz-rock fusion". You may want to send this record back after the first listen, but it is worth listening to again, carefully. Its a classic"
"Pat Metheny has numerous devoted fans with favorite CDs. On this recording, his playing is very "pretty" - but there's nothing wrong with that. Lie back on the couch. Its extremely therapeutic"
"Julie London accompanied by the much admired Barney Kessel on guitar, plus Ray Leatherwood on bass. Cry Me a River is the ultimate example of how a guitar player should play with a fine singer/song"
