Taylor’s fifth release for Linn combines solo recordings along with a few duets with Nashville legend Chet Atkins and a pair of overdubbed duets. Taylor’s fluid, unaccompanied playing makes him the most obvious heir to the legacy of Joe Pass. All of Martin Taylor’s recordings for the Scottish label Linn are strongly recommended. - Ken Dryden
