Jazz guitar fans should be thrilled by this lavish box set from Proper. Just as they did with they equally impressive survey of jazz drumming (Engine Room: A History of Jazz Drumming From Storyville to 52nd Street), the English label focuses here on one of the less-hailed components of the jazz firmament. Including extensive sessionographies, notes, and pictures -- all part of the set's handsome 52-page booklet -- Hittin' On All Six follows the evolution of the six-string instrument from early jazz (Eddie Lang, Lonnie Johnson) up through the bebop era (Herb Ellis, Barney Kessel).

A superb package for half the price of most comparable sets. ~ Stephen Cook, Rovi
