This page Having heard Charlie Christian play with Al Trent's band in Bismarck, she decided to focus upon the electric guitar, on which she became one of jazz's earliest exponents. Theory we need to be aware of the founders of modern jazz playing, like Wes Montgomery, Jim Hall, Barney Kessel, Joe Pass and Herb Ellis as well as the founders of guitar tradition like Django Reinhardt and Charlie Christian.

Is there a distinct melodic difference (single or chordal lines) between swing era styles of guitar (Charlie Christian, Django, Oscar Moore, etc) versus players who began thriving in the bebop era (Kenny Burrell, Grant Green, Wes to say, but forgot), that bebop was in fact the start of jazz becoming "an art form", more intellectual and sadly less popular and NOT made for dancing. It is inexplicable that "Solid", recorded in 1964, remained unreleased for 15 years until Grant Green's death in 1979 since it captures Grant Green at the peak of his art . It might seriously be the only genuinely American art form thus far. MARY OSBORNE is a swing music artist. To pass these ideas on a guitarist needed to be able to read standard musical notation and, as jazz playing became more sophisticated, he needed the technique to play the exotic barre chords that became the norm in jazz guitar music. Think of 20th century guitar greats—Charlie Christian, B. King, Chet Atkins and Les Paul—they all have one thing in common. As a lesser player to the likes of Kenny Burrell or Wes Montgomery, there are those, like Michael Cuscuna (writing on the liner notes of "Solid") who see him as a thread linking Charlie Christian (the virtual inventor of hollow body jazz guitar) with great jazz guitarists of today such as Peter Bernstein and John Scofield.
