Worshiping at the altar of rock's guitar gods is grand and understandable, but the fact that most of the great jazz guitarists are almost entirely ignored and unheard is truly lamentable. Here are three of the very best; Barney Kessell, Kenny Burell and, in the only clip known to exist, my own favorite, Grant Green. No, they're not Hendrix, Clapton and Page but they can play more than any of those more celebrated brethren and they deserve a listen.
