Album DescriptionIn the fifties, before he became a major international singing star Sacha Distel was regarded to be the best guitarist in Europe. Sacha's Guitar is a collection of the best, most important recordings Sacha made during this period including performances with an admiring John Lewis and the modern jazz quartet, Lionel Hampton, the Belgian saxophonist and flautist Bobby Jaspar and solo recordings written by Billy Byers and confirm that the young Sacha was indeed a sublime talent fit to step into the shoes of Django Reinhardt who had passed away in 1953. Superb light jazz-pop instrumentals? that sound modern today and have real international appeal. In a nutshell extremely 'cool' music as charming and sensuous as you would expect from Sacha Distel.
