From Bruce Forman
My first jazz guitar player that I really remember loving was Kenny Burrell. Just the bluesy-ness and the elegance and the eloquence of his playing, it was just such a beautiful counterpoint musically, sound wise and feel wise to everything, even though I was much more interested in playing a lot more than he liked to play, a la Charlie Parker.
That was my first one, and then Wes just blew my mind, and then Barney Kessel just creamed me, and then, of course, 1972 or 3 was the year Virtuoso Joe Pass came out. And that changed the world for us guitar players. That just changed the world. By then, I guess I was pretty well printed. I was probably about 17 at that time.
My first Monterey Jazz Festival I went to in 1973. Joe Pass was there, Roy Eldridge was there, Dizzy Gillespie was there. It was amazing. It was just a mind blowing experience.
