Kenny Burrell and the Jazz Heritage All-Stars: Live at the Blue Note

by Jack Bowers
December 1, 1999

I don’t know how the Jazz Heritage All–Stars were chosen, but can’t quarrel with the results of the vote or whatever was involved. Leader Kenny Burrell’s credentials are unimpeachable, and everyone else on this concert date from July ’96 at New York’s Blue Note nightspot is a remarkably accomplished musician. While Burrell’s mellow guitar is the ...

by C. Michael Bailey
October 1, 1999

Critic’s Note. This collection was also reviewed by Jim Santella in the September Issue of All About Jazz. My, How Repackaging Makes Music Better!

Kenny Burrell: 121578

by Douglas Payne
September 1, 1999

This period of Kenny Burrell's career found the guitarist playing more -- and better -- than ever. But he had long before abandoned his high-profile role as house guitarist for Prestige and Blue Note (in the 1950s and 1960s) and as a studio guitarist on a staggering number of jazz, pop and film dates (during the ...

by AAJ Staff
February 1, 1999

This is the third Prestige album Burrell made with Coleman Hawkins, each with a different mood. The first, SOUL, was a gentle small group session with a nice version of “Greensleeves". The next, the underrated THE HAWK RELAXES, was a graceful ballad set, originally for the Moodsville label. This record was also for Moodsville, but this ...
