by Maurizio Zerbo
February 9, 2021

Tribute to Jimmy Hall è ad oggi uno dei più riusciti omaggi discografici all'arte di questo grande maestro della chitarra jazz, scomparso otto anni fa. La dimensione live, ricca di momenti felici, ne ha ricreato tutto l'intenso lirismo apolinneo che rendeva ogni sua nota indispensabile.
