This Sunday Music Muse day features two stellar veteran masters of the jazz guitar. First, Herb Ellis An Evening with Herb Ellis. This is a live recording from 1995 quartet performance, that sound as fresh, laid back as you can imagine.
Next up, is Gene Bertoncini Acoustic Romance. This is mellow trio set with Gene, on guitar, Akira Tana on drums and Rufus Reid on bass. This might just the thing for a quiet escape from the chaos of current events. I must admit, I'm rather embarrassed, I've discovered Gene Bertoncini playing since 2020, a little after I moved to Rochester, after picking up a CD he did with guitarist Steve Green, who I'd seen playing with the White Hots at a Jazz90.1 event. Since then, I've picked up any Bertoncini CD I've come across, five so far, and counting.
