George Barnes Y Su Orquesta - Guitar In Velvet

Review by Reena Ray

Guitar In Velvet by George Barnes Y Su Orquesta is a delightful album that showcases the skills of the legendary jazz guitarist. The album features a collection of classic jazz standards, all beautifully arranged and performed by Barnes and his talented orchestra.

The album opens with "All the Things You Are," a classic tune that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the album. Barnes' guitar playing is smooth and soulful, and the orchestra provides a lush, velvety backdrop that complements his playing perfectly.

Other highlights on the album include "Stella by Starlight," "I Cover the Waterfront," and "The Nearness of You." Each of these tracks features Barnes' impeccable guitar work, as well as the rich, full sound of the orchestra.

Summary by Reena Ray

Guitar In Velvet is a must-have album for fans of classic jazz and guitar music. Barnes' playing is simply sublime, and the arrangements and performances by the orchestra are top-notch. It's a timeless album that will be enjoyed for years to come.
