5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, July 27, 2002

This has to be one of the best jazz guitar albums ever recorded.
It doesn't burn, but it's oh so mellow and sophisticated.
Rich melodies and harmonies, wonderful subtle rhythms,
wonderful relaxed vibe; wonderful, wonderful, wonderful...
If you get just one Joe Pass album, this is the one to get.

5.0 out of 5 stars This album showcases the late guitar genius at his best!, September 20, 1999

I've been a professional guitarist for the past 32 years and am a collector of jazz guitar albums. This album is one of the top 5 guitar trio albums that I've ever heard.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real "must have", May 13, 2000

This review is from: Intercontinental (Audio CD)

This is an album that sweats joy and art contemporarily. The level of virtuosity Joe Pass shows on all of the tracks is simply ignored by your ears that will be delighted by the melody and extreme good taste shown. This is a lesson for every guitarist yet a beautiful piece of contemporary music. There is a way of proposing phrases within chords that will completely fill the space without having any need for piano or other comping instrument around. Two words (literally) for the bass and drum that perfectly complement the trio: CLASS and ELEGANCE. Anyone that wants the PERFECT album, despite the instruments played, that wants something you can study as a deep lesson or listening to, or while shaving, or with a girl, please buy this MASTERPIECE.
