Jazz / Swing / Bebop / Guitar

If there is such a thing as a Holy Grail of bebop, this disc is it. While the sound quality may be lacking (Thelonious Monk is virtually inaudible on piano), Christian's guitar experiments are sublime. This disc is indispensable as an essential document in jazz history, and this French import release boasts cleaner sound than most. That crowd that witnessed God's own guitar player most have went totally berserk over what they were seeing. Charlie, Django, and Wes were the Holy Trinity of jazz guitar for all time. The Father, the son, and the Holy String.
