5.0 out of 5 stars
Great acoustic jazz guitar.,
By
This review is from: Jay Geils & Gerry Beaudoin & Kings of Strings (Audio CD)
This CD is a follow-up to Gerry's acoustic recording with Dave
Grisman which was nominated for a Grammy. On this CD Gerry teams up again with Jay Geils(The King of Strings) while adding nineteen year old teenage fiddle whiz Aaron Weinstein. The result is a swinging recording of classics from the swing era plus some original blues and bebop. "In A Mellotone" kicks off with Freddie Green style comping by Gerry while Aaron on violin picks up the melody followed by Jay. Very tasty- especially acoustically. "Blue Benedetto" is a catchy 12 bar blues dedicated to luthier Bob Benedetto. I think Gerry is playing rhythm and Jay the improv on this one. Either way, its a fun tune. Check out the transcription in this issue. Other tunes include "Here's That Rainy Day," "Minor Swing," "Take The A Train" and "Sweet Georgia Brown." The CD ends with a nice take on Miles Davis' "All Blues" with Aaron doing duty on mandolin. A swinging recording with some tasty arrangements and playing by all.

Lively swing guitar,

This review is from: Jay Geils & Gerry Beaudoin & Kings of Strings (Audio CD)
An enjoyable django-style guitar album, with good jazz violin as well. This is the Jay Geils of rock and blues fame, and he acquits himself well, though he is apparently playing the rhytym part most of the time.
