What a gathering for a celebration of Burrell's 75th birthday! Fitting, too, since his carrer is a storied one beginning in the mid fifties with a lion's share of major jazz stars (Burrell and Coltrane on Prestige, to mention one encounter!). Try this disc on for size whether you know Kenny Burrell's playing or not!
