The essence of blues feeling played by a master of jazz guitar
The appeal of this album lies in its rich structure, including deep improvisation and alternate takes.
The 9-minute 35-second "Nica's Dream" meticulously blends Horace Silver's sophisticated compositions with Burrell's distinctive warm tone. From the passionate playing on "Out For Blood" to the intensely bluesy 6-minute 22-second title track "KB Blues," Burrell explores the full potential of the guitar in each track. On "DB Blues," composed by Lester Young, Burrell's respectful approach to the tenor saxophone master is impressive, and the inclusion of an alternate take of "KB Blues" further enhances the diverse aspects of his playing. This is a must-listen for jazz guitar enthusiasts.
