Kenny Burrell needs a thread

Especially Lotus Land

Pretty much anything by Gil Evans is worth hearing. I've given that one a couple listens but there was not a track that caught me like some of Evans other stuff. It sounded good.

Another more 'symphonic' soundtrack record that I checked out last week by Kenny Burrell that is in that same style is "Asphalt Canyon Suite" from 1969. That one definitely has the studio/incidental/soundtrack sound of the era down pat. Johnny Pate did the orchestration on this one. I liked this one quite a bit.

Burrell also did a couple more LPs in that style with Don Sebesky- 'Blues- The Common Ground' for Verve and 'God Bless the Child' for CTI.

I liked them all and intend to listen to them again.

i love guitar forms and god bless the child is definitely worthwhile but. . . i always thought blues was kind of boring. but i also think that's because i've —more often than not— never really liked don sebesky. a couple good songs, but mostly just not that interesting.

i'm gonna check out weaver of dreams. don't know it at all and it sounds quite unique!

This track is groovy. Makes me feel like I am a private dick on a tail, ducking back and forth keeping an eye on my mark.

I love that end of the 60s/early 70s thing style with strings on top of a contemporary band...don't matter whether it is Charlie Rich, Dirty Harry sound track or something like BB King or Bobby Blue Bland.
