Grant Green has a beautiful jazz guitar...particularly like a song of his(i think it's his anyway) called "Creature'

Also-
Jazz is something that,no matter hard I tried, I just didn't "get"
for a long, long time. I sat glassy eyed and slack-jawed through many an explanation on what Jazz means..progressions...the repititions, timing and improvisations all very blahblahblah at the time.
But I did "get it" one morning at about 4AM on the downside of a dark night of the soul listening to "Kind of Blue"
oh yeah...I "got it."
And I don't ever think I'll be able to explain it.
