Joe Pass - американский джазовый гитарист. Его широкое использование «шагающего» баса, искусство одновременного сочетания нескольких мелодических линий в процессе импровизации и сочетание множества техник игры открыли новые возможности для мира джаз-гитары и оказали огромное влияние на современных джазовых гитаристов.

This is a wonderful compilation for Raney fans in particular and circa 1950s jazz fans in general. More importantly this set is a treasure trove for guitarists who want to study Raney's incredible technique.
Fifty tracks from eight different albums and ironically none feature Raney with Woody Herman as the album's subtitle implies. However, the tracks are mainly from albums led by Stan Getz and Red Norvo, as well as by Raney himself.

The Gift of Time is an album by French jazz fusion artist Jean-Luc Ponty, released in 1987. It was his first recording for Columbia Records after twelve albums on the Atlantic label. It was reissued on CD in 1991.

A switch back to Atlantic finds Jean-Luc Ponty continuing to dabble in West African waters while re-establishing his earlier solid base in repeating sequenced patterns. The electronics are back, for Ponty splits his time between the electric violin and various synthesizers and sequencers while Abdou M'Boup and Sydney Thiam add African percussion, which often takes a back seat to the electronics as the rhythmic basis for the music.

Imaginary Voyage is a studio album by French jazz fusion artist Jean-Luc Ponty. It was released in 1976 on Atlantic Records.
