The name ofAl Caiola has been part of that very select fraternity of studio musicians whowere heard on most of New York’s top rated television and recording assignmentsfrom the 40s up to the 70s. There’s a distinctive style and approach in hisplaying which made for a “sound.” On these recordings, Caiola joined forceswith Don Arnone, another top-class, revered and busy studio jazz and popguitarist. Both men get the chance to swing on these albums featuring two dozenwell-known standards and originals, which showcase how well their unique stylesblend.

On thefirst, “Great Pickin’,” the sparkling ensemble works with bass and drums, whileon some tracks the band includes Eddie Costa on piano, Phil Kraus on vibes,reedman Phil Bodner and Art Van Damme’s swinging accordion. On “Soft Guitars,”“Mr. Guitar” Al Caiola and “Mr. Y” Don Arnone are backed by Frank Carroll onbass and Gloria Agostini on harp.

Theserecordings capture the full, complete warmth of each instrument, bringing outall the highlights, all the nuances, all the subtle interplay that give theirplaying its special distinction.
