Comments
Gatefold cover.
Inside The Groove
An outstanding guitar choirs with large band.
Personal Impression (and brief notes)
George Barnes (1921-1977) was a too famous studio guitarist, and one of the earliest electric-guitar players. This album, along with his awesome guitar play, a nice swinging sound covers all around the tunes. A well listeningable, jazzy, comfortable, and exciting sound!
Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)
7 out of 10
