I really appreciate you showing those Art Pepper albums Dan. I never really listened to his music. I paused this video and checked out some of the Pepper + Eleven. It is very very good. He plays that alto really well. I can honestly say that I could probably pick him out if I heard one of his songs on terrestrial radio. Kind of a distinctive sound. >< Ackerman plays the acoustic guitar ridiculously clean. It is not easy playing an acoustic to begin with. I have heard a lot of pros buzzing notes. But this guy plays it so good. His approach kind of reminds me of Chet Atkins. Who was incredible as well. Thanks Dan O))). Dynamite shows~ Rob/Boston
From what I gather, Art is regarded as one of the greatest alto players of all. Really clean and smooth, for sure. A shame he passed so early, only 56. He wrote an autobiography just before he passed which I am interest to read. You are right, Ackerman is a virtuoso. Very accomplished, obviously had an eye for talent as well. Thank you Rob ☺
