Durium Posted May 22, 2008 Report Posted May 22, 2008 JIMMY RANEY Jimmy Raney, a rather underestimated guitar player, was descibed as the definitive cool jazz guitarist, a fluid bop solist with a quiet sound who had a great deal of inner fire (Scott Yanow - All music Guide) and as one of the most gifted and influential postwar jazz guitarists ( Peter Watrous - New York Times) Try to find yourself some albums from this great guitar player. Jimmy Raney (featuring Bob Brookmeyer) Keep swinging Durium Quote
BillF Posted May 22, 2008 Report Posted May 22, 2008 This week I bought Stan Getz at Storyville in 1951 which really shows what Jimmy Raney could do. Quote
