My absolute favourite jazz guitarists appear in the sidebar list. Tops are Joe Pass and Gene Bertoncini both USA artists. I've seen both perform live and had the wonderful opportunity to take part in workshops by Gene. If you're in New York City on January 27th you can see Gene play at the Bella Luna Ristorante at 8pm. It's located at 584 Columbus Ave.( between 88th and 89th Str) in New York. Phone is 1 212 877 2267. The food is great and reasonable Italian.
