It is hard to think of a jazz artist-make that any artist·with as much breadth depth, and sheer longevity as Kenny Burrell. His career, now over a half long has spanned all the major epochs of the art form and continues to flourish. Him gegan his professional life in the mid forties as swing music made its inexorable trans to bebop and modern jazz. He was one of the earliest guitarists in the medio to assimilate the novel innovations of Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Clifford Brown, O. Peterson and mix them with his seminal swing and blues influences. Burrell early mosaic, already a diverse mix of swing, blues, and modern jazz, included Christian, Django Reinhardt, and Oscar Moore as well as T-Bone Walker, John L. Hooker, Waters, Floyd Smith, Johnny Moore, and the full gamut of jazz and keyboard players. The results were heard in strong relief with his output of the mid '50 on the Blue Note and Prestige labels. From there, Burrell assumed the role of trendsetter and has si ce been viewed as one of the genre's major innovators and leaders. By decade's end he as redefining the sonic possibilities of jazz guitar on his groundbreaking guitar-bass-drums recordings and set new standards in the organ-trio medium through his inventive and sympathetic work with Jimmy Smith. A Night at the Vanguard (1959) demonstrated wha a gui ar could do as the sole melodic/harmonic instrument in a combo setting. And Jimmy Smith recordings like The Sermon (1958), Home Gookin' (1959), Back at the Ghicken Shack (1960), and Midnight Special (1960) produced a template which is followed assiduously to this day. Never content to rest on his laurels, Burrell continued with a number of ambitious and successful experiments mating the jazz guitar to a wider variety of combo and orchestral applications. Moreover, Burrell's landmark efforts in the burgeoning soul-jazz style influenced legions of guitar players and other instrumentalists across various stylistic divides and indeed presaged the funk styles percolating and emerging in the late sixties. Since then, Burrell has touched virtually every form in the genre from the grittiest, folksy blues, funky soul-jazz, and traditional gospel hymns to esoteric modal jazz and the loftiest post-bop modern styles-always delivered with taste, musical sensitivity, and his personal, highly identifiable stamp. His appropriately titled opus Guitar Forms (1965), presented another side of his artistry and showcased many of his diverse tangents in microcosm, from the acoustic classical guitar/amplified jazz guitar and orchestral combinations in "Greensleeves" and his solo nylon-string adaptation of George Gershwin's "Prelude #2" to his Spanish/Mexican-influenced original "Loie," the down-home blues bent of "Downstairs," and the straight-ahead jazz rendition of "Breadwinner." Kenny Burrell continues to lead and inspire guitarists to the present day. His legacy is assured and implicit in his overriding credo: "Let your spirit come through and you will always touch others. Give the music your personal best. Be yourself-it works.". Truer words were never spoken. Kenny Burrell personifies and epitomizes the word and mood "blue." An attribute that permeates the heart of jazz, blue is a universal feeling, a resonance extending to all forms of music. Kenny said as much, in words and sounds, in his aptly titled work Blues: the Gommon Ground. And he has done much to show us the many hues of blue in his copious repertory. Over the years, Kenny has gained considerable cachet with evocative titles like K.B. Blues, Blue Moods, Blue Lights, Bluesin' Around, Midnight Blue, Blue Bash, Blues: the Gommon Ground, and his recent Blue Muse. Each underscores the fact that shades of indigo are primary colors in his artistic palette and convey the essence of his musical persona.
