The Velvet Touch of
... Lenny Breau ...
An outstanding jazz improviser who performed on both acoustic and electric guitars, Lenny Breau's right hand drew on classical, flamenco, and country (Travis/Atkins) finger-picking techniques. He was among the first guitarists to digest the impressionistic, post-bop chord voicings of pianist Bill Evans. Breau developed the ability to simultaneously comp chords and improvise single-string melodies, creating the illusion of two guitarists playing together. His facility with artificial harmonics remains the envy of many guitarists. Late in his career, Breau began using a seven-string guitar that extended the instrument's range in the upper register. Breau's early RCA recordings are eclectic and technically dazzling.
Recorded live, this album features a trio setting of bass, guitar, and drums. Musically the record spans the gamut from jazz, pop, blues, to Indian music. His ability to play chords, melody, and a bassline simultaneously has to be heard to be believed. (AMG)

Near Mint records will look like new or almost-like-new, with at worst, a minor surface mark(s). (This is usually the TOP grade for an unsealed album)
8
VG+
Very Good Plus records will be nice and shiny with only minor surface marks which shouldn't affect the sound
7
VG
Very Good records will still be nice & shiny but have more pronounced scuffs/scratches which will likely be audible
-----------------------------------------------
6
G+
I don't list many items below VG ... but may do so if it's a desirable title ... so a Good Plus or Good may be acceptable if it's the only condition available ...
5
G
these two grades will include records with signs of wear, deeper scratches and pops/clicks during play ... still may be worth keeping until an upgrade is found ...
