Quote:
Widely overlooked today, New York session-guitarist Johnny Smith�s
Royal Roost debut is a minor masterpiece from a near-forgotten genius.
Smith�s prodigious technique, which allowed him to play entire,
melodically elevated solos using augmented chords rather than single
note runs, has never been topped, although Wes Montgomery came close a
decade later. Somewhat unexpectedly, given his own lush and laidback
style, Smith was the composer of "Walk Don't Run," a massive,
twanging, primeval rock �n� roll hit for the Ventures in 1960. The
royalties from that and other cover versions allowed Smith to retire
to bucolic Colorado, where he opened a guitar store and became a music
teacher. Jazz At NBC includes ineffable readings of standards such as �Moonlight In Vermont,� �Stars Fell On Alabama,� �(I Don�t Stand) A
Ghost Of A Chance� and �Tabu.� Jazz guitar does not get more gorgeous
than this.
