Synopsis

Album Description
Throughout the 1950?s, Tal Farlow dominated modern jazz guitar. Self-taught, Farlow quickly became revered for his adventurous sense of harmony and a breathtaking virtuosic technique which earned him the nickname ?The Octopus? due to his large hands and long fingers. This two-CD set comprises Farlow in Los Angeles fronting some of that city?s finest. By way of a bonus, we?ve included six wondrous tracks featuring the Red Norvo Trio at its creative peak.
