about
Guitarist Rick Haydon, a veteran jazz educator, is not widely known to most jazz fans. On the other hand, John Pizzarelli has established himself by leading his own trio (and appearing in many Foxwoods Casino ads). Following a concert together in 2004, Haydon achieved his goal of recording a tribute to greats of the instrument with Pizzarelli, one of the masters of his generation. With bassist Martin Pizzarelli and drummer Tony Tedesco accompanying them, the two men pick a far-reaching program that delves into swing and bop, alternating between lead and rhythm lines so effectively that it’s hard to tell who is who. http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=21359 User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
