Reviews :
“Ninety years old this month and patricarch of a notable jazz dynasty, Bucky Pizzarelli is the complete jazz guitarist. A resourceful soloist and superb accompanist, he apparently carries in his revered head every song ever written. He also plays a seven-string guitar – presumably finding the usual six insufficient. Here, along with his friend and former pupil, Ed Laub, he plays a selection from his vast repertoire, displaying that effortless simplicity which is the despair of lesser mortals. Reverting to six strings, he also performs a guitar concerto by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco. He heard Segovia play it in 1939 and has, he says, been “nibbling at it” for the past 60-odd years. The man’s a phenomenon!” The Guardian Reviews
Bucky Pizzarelli was a master of the subtle art of rhythm guitar as well as a gifted soloist, known for his uncommonly sweet and delicate tone and disarmingly straightforward approach to melodic line. He became a mainstay of the New York jazz scene, often performing with his celebrated son John. Pizzarelli was among the few guitarists to play an instrument with seven strings rather than the customary six.
“I like this album. Not only that, we both like the same ice cream. It’s sheer pleasure to hear a guitar sounding like a guitar again.” Les Paul, 1972
