    I was lucky enough to watch Barney in many club dates in the 70ies over here in Germany. What a musician ! Great memories !

    1) Fly me to the moon

    3) The look of love
    4) Here's that rainy day
    5) One note samba (!)
    6) a slow low-down blues morphs into a faster bebop blues

    Kessel was a great Jazz guitarist but he also worked as a studio musician being a part of the famous Wrecking Crew in Los Angeles. Many Jazz Musicians doubled as studio musicians because playing Jazz didn't pay well. Jazz musicians are the best so they do well as studio musicians where you have to be able to play any kind of music and do it quickly. To do that you have to be an excellent reader, have a great ear and be able to improvise on the spot.

    At about 25:10 he busts his high E string and then gets across the finish line with only five strings. Truth be told, I bet he'd still sound pretty good on only one string.

    I attended this concert (Maison de L'ORTF, Paris, 1969). Barney lined with Kenny Burrell and Grant Green) for an unforgettable event. Back then, I was 19. I decided not to think too much to become a pro musician and to stick to my medical college...
    BTW, Bob, I'm very curious : as a French, I never had the opportunity to access to the concert footage. I know, there was a TV crew on site, but they never aired the concert. Where did you get this gem (high sentimental value to me)...?
    PS : His cover of "Here's that Rainy Day" is unique (not recorded on any album)
