Larry Coryell - 1991 "Twelve Frets To One Octave"

A guitar showcase for Coryell, who has always been among the more accomplished players on either electric or acoustic. He goes through old blues, jazz standards, and everything in between. There's absolutely nothing else to support him, enabling Coryell to display his complete technical arsenal.

I bought this album before amazon was a company and I still find it to be one of the best acoustic guitar albums I have. Such wizardlike mastery of the wooden instrument he has. Progressive jazz in a real organic matrix. Must have!!!!!

For guitarists that are curious about Larry's playing , there are guitar lessons inside!

    Thanks so much for the Coryell uploads-he had a big influence on me growing up & it's great to go back and listen to his stuff again. He will be missed...
