Originally recorded for EMI in the mid '60s, these two albums showcase the genuis of Joe Pass in two different musical settings at the most important time of his career.
When pro jazz guitarists are asked to identify their heroes the names usually mentioned are Django Reinhardt, Wes Montgomery, Charlie Christian and Joe Pass.
Originally recorded for EMI in the mid '60s, these two albums showcase the genuis of Joe Pass in two different musical settings at the most important time of his career.
On 'Simplicity' Joe swings elegantly and creatively with a small group of first-rate sidemen. This is jazz guitar that is warm and melodic featuring Who Can I Turn To, Tis Autumn, Nobody Else But Me, You and Me, Luciana, Sands of Time, Gentle Rain, etc.
On 'A Sign Of The Times' Joe Pass plays hit tunes of the '60s with the aim of generating radio airplay - whilst this is not a jazz session, Joe still shows off his wonderful jazz chops on both 6 and 12 string guitar featuring Nowhere Man, It Was A Very Good Year, What Now My Love, Sweet September, A Sign Of The Times, Softly As I Leave You, etc.
