Charlie Christian - Solo Flight: Best Of 1939-41 - VINYL LP
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Jazz
- Description: Despite having such a short recording career, the original guitar hero Charlie Christian single-handedly revolutionised the electric guitar. With having no direct influence on his guitar playing, he used the horn and reed lines he heard from the likes of Lester Young as inspiration to develop his unique single line phrasing - and so was born the guitar solo. Christian tragically died at 25 of tuberculosis, just as he was jamming with cool cats Thelonious Monk and Charlie Parker on the East coast, developing the future sound of be-bop. Our collection features some of the best material he recorded with the legendary Benny Goodman small bands. Playing alongside such luminaries of the jazz world as Goodman himself, Count Basie, Fletcher Henderson, Papa Jo Jones, Lester Young and Lionel Hampton, Christian shone above them all with his utterly unique and pioneering playing. Album Tracks 1. Flying Home 2. Rose Room 3. Shivers 4. Grand Slam (Boy Meets Goy) 5. Lester's Dream 6. Wholly Cats 7. Royal Garden Blues 8. As Long As I Live 9. Breakfast Feud 10. I've Found a New Baby 11. Gone with What Draft 12. Solo Flight 13. Smoo-Ooth One 14. Air Mail Special
