The Chris Flory Quintet - The Chris Flory Quintet Featuring Scott Hamilton (2012) 320kbps

Guitarist Chris Flory was there in the ‘70s as one of the young musicians playing mainstream swing and, as part of that generation, he has kept the legacy of mainstream swing guitar alive while simply playing in his own musical personality. One of the top straight ahead guitarists of the past 35 years, throughout this CD, in this reunion with Scott Hamilton, Chris Flory brings out the best in Scott and vice versa, making this disc one of the high points of their recent careers. From the album notes by Scott Yanow, author of 10 books on jazz, whose upcoming book, The Jazz Guitarists, includes Chris Flory among the 341 guitarists profiled.)
