Looking for Jazz emsembles with a guitar flair

I cycled thru so many amp/pre incl Shindo, Atma, Jules, countless other gears/accessories to find the sonic experience. Now that I have settled with the right sound, I found it harder and harder to find the right content to match my gear. For example, putting a vhs source thru a 1080P plasma. I highly recommend NGUYEN LE. Nguyen LE's content is fluid and recording by ACT is superb ie. the layering. IMHO, his best is yet to come. He doesn't have signatory chop, and when speaking of World, he is Vietnamese, raised in Europe, influenced by Jazz/Rock/World. Most/all other guitarists have tried the World things and the results are half-*** including John McLaughlin, Eric Clapton, countless... Also, other guitarists also tried Jimi Hendix... Nguyen Le's interpretation of Jimi Hendrix in his Purple CD is creative and awesome!

Lenny Breau hasn't been mentioned yet. Such a shame that he has always been so overlooked. I really like the album Guitar Sounds From Lenny Breau even though it has a few novelty covers such as King Of The Road & Hard Day's Night. There's a little documentary on youtube that tells a bit more about his life. I've yet to track down the album he cut with Chet Atkins. Anyone hear this?

Indofunka,

Something is really wrong with the system you assembled if you can't listen to your music. Its the signature of OTL- they get the balance completely wrong. I've had the same problems and know many who sold their OTL's. Notice how many OTL's appear on Audiogon? Its a mistake many of us make, we are seduced by the "airy" sound which is actually brightness. Dumo the OTL and start to enjoy your music.

Grover Washington, Jr. has a great guitarist on soom of his ablums like "Reed Seed" and "Live at the Bayou" - his name is Richard Steacker.

Analog111, Shindo is not OTL.
I do enjoy the music regardless of types of system/technology. My focus is on content. Good content (creative, inventive, element of surprise, fluid, not mechanical, not me-too strategy) bind with good recording is extremely hard to find, thus my Nguyen Le's recommendation.
Take your OTL discussion to the right forum. I don't have technology religion, so I am curious what others have to say about your comment: "OTL dumping".
