• Track Listing

Kenny Burrell freely draws upon the blues and expands upon the guitar work of T-Bone Walker, Oscar Moore and the legendary Django Reinhardt. This collection showcases the guitarist at the pinnacle of his career; the first 10 tracks are from his 1966 album the Tender Gender, a straight ahead session with his working group at the time. The remainder (except for the track "My Favorite Things," taken from a Chess Christmas album), are from a 1967 album, Ode to 52nd St., including the set's title track.
