Guitar And The Wind by Barry Galbraith released on Decca in 1958

Marc Myers wrote for JazzWax:

"Barry Galbraith was one of New York's busiest session jazz guitarists in the 1950s and '60s. Between 1941 and the late 1970s, he was on 620 recording dates, a staggering total. How many albums did he record as a leader under his name? Just one—Guitar and the Wind, for Decca..

The album is beautifully arranged, swings tastefully and is a gorgeous example of what made Galbraith special. His chord voicings were seductive and his improvised runs were tasty and unbeatable.

Recorded in January 1958 over three days, the album featured the following personnel and tracks:

Urbie Green, Chauncey Welsch and Frank Rehak (tb); Dick Hixson (b-tb); Bobby Jaspar (fl,ts); Eddie Costa (p,vib); Barry Galbraith (g); Milt Hinton (b); Osie Johnson (d) and Billy Byers (arr)"
