Originally issued on three 10-inch LPs, these albums feature three outstand- ing but underrated jazz guitarists: Lou Mecca, Bill de Arango and Chuck Wayne.
Crisp, inventive and fleet-fingered, Mecca found his own voice from his main inspiration, Tal Farlow, whom he replaced in the Gil MellÃ© Quartet. Lou s classical guitar sound is complemented in this 1954 Blue Note recording by fine vibist Jack Hitchcock, bassist Vinnie Burke and drummer Jimmy Camp- bell.
De Arango, among the first of the modern jazz guitarists in 52nd Street s heyday, hadn t recorded for a while when he made his album for EmArcy in 1954. His full sound, great swing and consistently imaginative power were in the Charlie Christian tradition, but, as this date proves, he was also very indi- vidual. Here, he is backed excellently by pianist Johnny Williams, bassist Teddy Kotick and drummer Art Mardigan.
Masterful as a soloist and rhythm player, Chuck Wayne conclusively proved his worth as a standout member of Woody Herman s First Herd, and in his con- tribution to the success of George Shearing s Quintet. On this excellent 1953 Progressive album with Brew Moore and Zoot Sims he shines with both, achiev- ing a relaxed unity with each. For all who dig guitar, this is a well-seasoned group of performances by three articulate and compelling guitarists.
