Jazz guitar?

What are some songs or artists you would recomend that have a strong jazz guitar? I’m the pianist in a jazz band, and our new guitar player is at a loss for rhythmical things to do while comping behind the band.

Hi,

Good question. You’re gonna get alot of suggestions here. I’ll try to suggest a few that have not been mentioned already:

Django Reinhardt – Truly Insiring (learn his story too, what he did with two fingers would humble most guitarists out there)

Grant Green – A Nice alternative to standard jazz. Perfect if you like to put a little “Go Go” in your playing. Cool Stuff, greatfor jamming.

Tal Farlow – One of the greats

Charlie Christian – Another timeless player

George Van Eps – Much overlooked

Jim Hall – Also, very underrated.

Joe Pass – Great for real-book type of stuff.

John Mclaughlin – Cool Stuff, check out “Mahavishnu Orchestra”

Kenny Burrell – Check out his stuff on Verve records. Great stuff.

Larry Carlton – Really did cool stuff with fusion.

Lee Ritenour – Also, did really did cool stuff with fusion, and played on alot of records you ,may have have listened to.

Pat Martino – Also great if you want to learn alot of stuff in the real book.

Kevin Chisholm – American Guitarist

The guitar is a musical instrument with ancient roots that adapts readily to a wide variety of musical styles. It typically has six strings, but four, seven, eight, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen and eighteenstring guitars also exist. The size and shape of the neck and the base of the guitar also vary, producing a variety of sounds. The two main types of guitars are the electric guitar and the acoustic guitar (of which the three main types are the classical guitar, the steelstring flattop guitar, and the archtop guitar). Guitars are recognized as one of the primary instruments in flamenco, jazz, blues, country, mariachi, rock music, and many forms of pop. They can also be a solo classical instrument. Guitars may be played acoustically, where the tone is produced by vibration of the strings and modulated by the hollow body, or they may rely on an amplifier that can electronically manipulate tone. Such electric guitars were introduced in the 1930s, and they have continued to have a profound influence on popular culture since then. Traditionally guitars have been constructed of various woods and strung with animal gut, or more recently, with either nylon or steel strings.
