Howard Alden, Bucky Pizzarelli (guitar)
Howard Alden, "the most impressive and creative member of a new generation of jazz guitarists," [Newark Star Ledger] partners with one of the greatest rhythm guitarists in the history of jazz, Bucky Pizzarelli, in an intimate, yet boldly swinging, guitar duo masterpiece. With both virtuosos wielding seven-string guitars, Alden and Pizzarelli weave seamlessly between the roles of featured jazz soloist and bassline-and-chord-playing, rhythm accompanist. Perhaps not since Alden's acclaimed duet recordings with guitar icon George Van Eps has a partnership between two generations of jazz guitar greats been so musically compatible, artistically compelling and downright swinging.
