Our Take
Look at me, mam, I'm soaring through the air on a Solo Flight with the legendary Charlie Christian. Oh wait, that's not me, that's the title of this compilation album showcasing the best of his work from 1939 to 1941. But let me tell you, listening to Christian's smooth guitar licks and innovative solos, you'll feel like you're flying high too. From the moment you press play, you're transported back to a time when jazz was king and Christian was at the forefront of the movement. His technical prowess and improvisational skills are on full display here, with each track showcasing his ability to push the boundaries of traditional jazz guitar playing. Tracks like "Seven Come Eleven" and "Solo Flight" highlight Christian's knack for creating complex, yet accessible melodies that keep you tapping your foot and nodding your head along. And let's not forget his incredible speed and precision on songs like "Flying Home" and "Rose Room" - the man is a true guitar virtuoso. Overall, this album is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado or music lover looking to expand their horizons. So buckle up, sit back, and let Charlie Christian take you on a musical journey that's sure to leave you breathless and wanting more. Fly high, my friends. Fly high.
