I have just checked out the line up and had a quick listen, i will have a full listen tomorrow. This will be amazing, Thanks.3 greats. Not trying to out-do each other. Just playing. The tone control. Just amazing virtuosity. I love this concert.
Django Reinhardt, a genius.
Also Bill Frizzell (check his work with Paul Motain on ECM, it is stunning).
PS If you really want to get out there try Derek Bailey!
If you're looking for stuff in the same vein as Grant Green, the two obvious candidates would be George Benson and Wes Montgomery, which have already been mentioned. But two lesser known, and slightly funkier, people to listen to might be Boogaloo Joe Jones and Melvin Sparks, who recorded extensively for Prestige in the late 60's and early 70's.I have been listening to Grant Green on Tidal, and this got me thinking about other Jazz guitarists who front bands. Who else would forum members recommend, and maybe your favourite album by them. Should be loads on Spotify. Joe Jones also played on a couple of cracking albums by the organist Sonny Phillips.
Cheers.
