Originally issued on three 10-inch LPs, these albums featurethree outstanding but underrated jazz guitarists: Lou Mecca, Bill de Arango andChuck Wayne.

Crisp, inventive and fleet-fingered, Mecca found his own voicefrom his main inspiration, Tal Farlow, whom he replaced in the Gil MelléQuartet. Lous classical guitar sound is complemented in this 1954 Blue Noterecording by fine vibist Jack Hitchcock, bassist Vinnie Burke and drummer JimmyCampbell.

De Arango, among the first of the modern jazz guitarists in52nd Streets heyday, hadnt recorded for a while when he made his album forEmArcy in 1954. His full sound, great swing and consistently imaginative powerwere in the Charlie Christian tradition, but, as this date proves, he was alsovery individual. Here, he is backed excellently by pianist Johnny Williams,bassist Teddy Kotick and drummer Art Mardigan.

Masterful as a soloist and rhythm player, Chuck Wayneconclusively proved his worth as a standout member of Woody Hermans First Herd,and in his contribution to the success of George Shearings Quintet. On thisexcellent 1953 Progressive album with Brew Moore and Zoot Sims he shines withboth, achieving a relaxed unity with each. For all who dig guitar, this is awell seasoned group of performances by three articulate and compellingguitarists.
