Our Take

In the world of jazz guitar, Kenny Burrell stands tall - both literally, with his towering presence, and musically, with his undeniable talent. This box set, featuring four classic albums, is a veritable feast for the ears for any jazz aficionado.

First up, we have "Introducing Kenny Burrell", a debut album that showcases Burrell's effortless style and impeccable technique. From the smooth grooves of "This Time the Dream's on Me" to the fiery passion of "Autumn in New York", this album is a masterclass in jazz guitar playing.

Next, we have "Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane", a collaboration that is nothing short of legendary. The interplay between Burrell's nimble finger work and Coltrane's soaring saxophone lines is simply breathtaking. Tracks like "Why Was I Born" and "Birk's Works" are not to be missed.

"Midnight Blue" takes us on a sultry, late-night journey through jazz blues. Burrell's smooth-as-silk guitar tones are showcased brilliantly on tracks like "Chitlins Con Carne" and "Saturday Night Blues". This album is perfect for setting the mood on a rainy evening.

Finally, we have "Guitar Forms", a criminally underrated gem in Burrell's discography. The introspective mood of tracks like "Prelude #2" and "Lotus Land" is a testament to Burrell's versatility as a musician. This album is a must-listen for anyone looking to dive deeper into Burrell's catalogue.

In conclusion, this box set is a must-have for any jazz enthusiast. Kenny Burrell's talent and innovation are on full display, making these classic albums a timeless addition to any music collection.
