| As
one of the key architects of the '60s West Coast Sound, Howard Roberts'
influence is incalculable. No matter if the music derived from Broadway,
Brazil or the Beatles, his hard-driving, bluesy-yet-silky sound
proved popular with swinging sophisticates and was eagerly awaited
by pretty much every guitarist in the country. These classic, compelling
performances showcase Roberts' brilliance and sophistication, as
well as the jazzy, streetwise, and sometimes savage prowess of his
combo, hand-picked from Hollywood's top session players. This CD
features two original albums! |
