    I'd love to hear from someone that voted for Lee Ritenour and why.

    His appeal has always been a mystery to me.

    Having read about Lee for decades I never really knew much about him. I stumbled across this video and dug the whole vibe.

    Joe Pass and Metheny are my top two from that list. One main reason is that I've seen both live and both were brilliant. I was lucky to see Joe in a jazz club in Detroit in the early 80's and Pat several times at the Detroit Jazz Fest in more recent years. I would have liked to seen Mike Stern on the list.

    Sadly, no I have not. One of my many regrets.

    As a big fan of Ted Greene and Tim Lerch, I've just discovered Ray Garner!

    At the Central Coast jazz workshop Tim Lerch was one of the instructors. He played in the bar\lounge and there he was playing solo guitar with singing.
