JAZZ GUITAR PIONEERS |  |
Description:
2 CD Set The guitar has often been unjustly overshadowed in the jazz pantheon as an almost constant proliferation of virtuosi on all manner of other, louder and more prominent instruments has grabbed most of the attention, but this collection's content aims to redress the balance. Features performances by Django Reinhardt, Lonnie Johnson, Eddie Lang, Les Paul & Charlie Christian. |
