Merry Christmas.....

Maybe light blogging ahead. It's hard to tell. I am on my way down south to see my favorite hero of the Republic, my father. Here is a sample from an album I tried to find years ago and failed. Kenny Burrell's Stormy Monday. All things considered, Burrell is probably my favorite jazz guitar player.

This is Burrell's version of a recently featured song. Burrell is less interested in the mood of the song and more in it's musical architecture than Wes Montgomery was. Enjoy the comparison.
Kenny Burrell/One for my baby/Stormy Monday
From the All Music Guide:
[Burrell is] joined by pianist Richard Wyands, bassist John Heard, and drummer Lenny McBrowne
