    5 out of 5 stars Awe inspiring.......2006-12-07

    Each time I listen to any of the songs on this album I am inspired to play guitar. Hank Garland is one of my favorite guitarists. His chords, phrasing, and improvisation are best of the best on this album and he was only around 30 years old when recorded.

    Gary Burton was around 19 years old and nailed it. Unbelievable the way he could play then and especially now. Buy this work of art if/when you find it.

    5 out of 5 stars Pure Joy!.......2006-11-21

    I have heard quite a few guitarists play "All the Things You Are." It is a beautiful song and has been interpreted so many ways. I was stunned when I heard this version - it has so much energy and pure joy - I will never grow tired of the melodic interplay between Garland and Burton. Maybe like a drive on a lovely country road, going ninety miles an hour! Makes me smile just thinking about it. All the album is wonderful, but that song, for me, just takes you away.

    5 out of 5 stars Country Meets Jazz.......2005-03-15

    I love the old classic country guitar players. Chet Atkins, would have to be my favorite country guitar player of the 50's and 60's. You wouldn't think so, but back then, country and jazz had its ties.

    Just listen to a Chet Atkins album. You will easily hear his group go into a swing, and Atkins will be swinging and improvising away. I don't think any of the country guitar players of the 50's and 60's admitted that they were playing with some jazz influence, but all the same, it sounded tremendous.

    Hank Garland. Now he goes both ways. He can be a real great country guitar player, or a real down home jazz player. Or he can meet you in the middle, as he does on this wonderful release.

    The album opens up with a warm version of All The Things You Are. Vibraphonist, Gary Burton takes the melody, while Hank backs him up. A nice blend. Hank takes the first solo, while Burton repetively plays the melody behind him. Burton then delivers a nice solo.

    Three Four, The Blues, is the next piece. It is a beautifully done blues, swung in 3/4. Drummer Joe Morello, thanks to his experience in the Dave Brubeck group, leads the group here, improvising just as easily and just as soulfully as they would have done in a 4/4 situation.

    Time for an allegro piece. Denzel Best's Move, is next. Note the way Joe Morello plays the melody on the drums behind Garland, and Burton. After a beautiful drum solo, they're back into the melody.

    Next, is a piece to feature the bassist, Joe Benjamin. Always. Joe Benjamin takes the melody, while Garland comps in the background. Garland switches to acoustic for this piece to make for a subtle swinging little jazz piece. Perhaps, Garland's country influence has caught up to him in this piece.

    Garland, was clearly an expert a taking songs in up tempo. Riot-chous, is a very fast swing. The album closes out with Relaxing. The title fits the piece perfectally.

    Hank Garland, probaly one of the most underrated guitarists in jazz. He delivers a nice album here. It swings in every-which-way!

    5 out of 5 stars A Garland of Greats.......2005-01-25

    Hank Garland recently departed this earth after a long, disabling illness. This sparkling, straightahead, swinging session made many of us take country musicians seriously--including Gary Burton, who would venture into fusion and country territory himself. Ironically he would practically disown this recording when I reminded him of it in the early '70's, though my hunch is that today he would view the session more favorably. Another highlight is the fresh, airy but propulsive sound of the Brubeck rhythm section--Joe Morello, drums, and Joe Benjamin, bass. When I asked the latter if he'd played with Gary after this session, he answered that he felt it would be presumptuous to reintroduce himself to a prodigy who had become a major jazz star. Joe himself qualifies for such a designation in my book--one of the most generous, unselfish, gracious and humble musicians I've ever met.
