KENNY BURRELL - FROM VANGUARD WITH LOVE (1994)

Guitarist Kenny Burrell has been called a “cool, controlled romantic” whose textured playing is “subtle yet sensual, meditative, exultant, wry and intimate.” He’s one of the most lyrical guitarists on the jazz scene — in fact, he was Duke Ellington’s favorite guitar improviser.

18 works from the 8th installment of "KING Jazz RE:Generation" "Western Musicians Edition Part 1" have been released digitally.

Following on from the previous installment, the 8th installment of KING Jazz Re:Generation is a lineup that focuses on works by overseas musicians produced by King Records.

The 18 works include "Encore At Marty's New York" (1992), a live recording of a New York club by jazz vocalist Mel Torme, "RHAPSODY" (1993), a luxurious and ambitious work in which the master of cool jazz collaborated with various top artists by Lee Konitz, and "NO PROBLEM" (1995), a trio album in which Duke Jordan, who has many fans in Japan and Europe, plays standard songs accompanied by an elite Japanese rhythm section.
