Bldadr brings up an interesting point. While the guitar is, arguably, the preferred solo instrument in rock 'n roll, it is the sax that is used primarily in jazz, with the trumpet coming in second. This would seem to have something to do with the expressive qualities of each instrument. Jazz guitar being somewhat tepid compared to its rock counterparts and to the wailin' sax that we associate so closely with the jazz idiom.
Jazz Guitar
I love jazz (mainly horns). I have lots of piano and horn based jazz. I would relly like to get some of the great guitar based jazz that I hear from time to time.
Please give any recomendations you may have. Sound quality is second priority to content. Old recordings of less than extraordinary sound quality are fine.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
