The other solo guitarist I saw a number of times in similar settings was Gene Bertoncini. Funnily enough, I'm just listening to him on the Tone Poet LP of Wayne Shorter's 'Odessey of Iska' - inspired casting.

Inspired casting . . .  and inspired music!  ❤️ 

Odyssey of Iska would likely be my desert-island choice for Wayne Shorter.

 

 

Now listening to some James Moody, prompted by @Rabshakeh (on another thread):

James Moody - Great Day (Argo, 1963)

An excellent collaboration with Tom McIntosh.  Sorta like their version of Miles & Gil Evans -- but a bit smaller in scale.

Another one from James Moody:

Comin' on Strong (Argo/Cadet, 1964)

Yes. "Baffling" for sure.

I was hoping Elemental would include it in their Xanadu reissue series from a few years ago. But no luck. They chose Cuber Libre instead.

Not bad at all. Easily - but wrongly - dismissed.

At some point, "trappings" are what should be dismissed. Just pay attention to the playing itself.

Yep. I fully agree.

No argument from me on that.
