Reviews
- This release is tagged "acoustic", but Ted actually played electric guitars, primarily Telecasters which he modified himself.
Edited one year agoTed Green has achieved legend status among jazz guitarists. His pedagogy and online materials are second to none. This is his one and only studio recording, a collection of beautifully arranged fingerstyle interpretations of standards and other pieces.
Upon casual listening, you'll be entertained by some mellow background music of familiar tunes. A more mature ear will be astounded by inner voice motion, counterpoint, harmonic superimpositions, and baroque style permutations of classic cadences. This man really delivers.
I snatched up the CD many years ago when it was released and have all but memorized the material. The recording is clean and his artificial harmonics ping through. His guitar sounds as though it may have been recorded direct to board. My only complaint is the entire release is rather bass heavy; I believe that to be a creative choice on Ted's part, however.
Ted, we miss you, but your music will live forever.
Cut quiet and the vinyl has quite a bit of surface noise for a NM to M condition copy.
There is a chapter about Ted in the book called Confessions of a Vintage Guitar Dealer: The Memoirs of Norman Harris. It's the 2nd book by the Norman's Rare Guitars owner.
