KENNY BURRELL Special Requests (and other Favorites)

Kenny Burrell has appeared on so many essential jazz recordings that jazz history and his biography seem irretrievably intertwined. Even Jimi Hendrix once remarked, “Kenny Burrell – that’s the sound I’m looking for.” Here is Burrell captured live at the West-Coast jazz Mecca, Catalina’s, in an easy-going program of some of his most-requested tunes along with a few of his personal favorites thrown in. Jazz tunes by Benny Golson, Freddie Hubbard, the Duke and others, standards and even Kenny’s classic original “Chitlins Con Carne” are here, all given the ever-tasteful Burrell treatment.
