This stellar track from jazz-guitar maestro Kenny Burrell is a great example of the cool, jazzy &#8211; and also very bluesy &#8211; sound we will draw inspiration from. Kenny is one of my guitar heroes and his playing here is a masterclass in how to blend jazz and blues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wQyHxVTXVrM&amp;w=420&amp;h=315]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the late 50s and early 60s, a number of jazz artists such as Art Blakey, Herbie Hancock, Wes Montgomery (to name just a few)&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":240,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false},"categories":[2,3,4,5],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/kennyburrell.jpg","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=222"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.alterativus.com\/martinphilipsmith\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
