Live at the Other End

Live at the Other End (2007) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

Let's face it, solo jazz guitar records -- by most guitar masters anyway -- would become rather ho hum unless of course you are a student of the instrument or a die-hard fanatic. There are exceptions: Jim Hall, Bola Sete, Tal Farlow, as well as others purposely omitted for brevity here. Live at the Other End by Jimmy Ponder is not only engaging ...

What's New

What's New (2005) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

Guitarist Jimmy Ponder's trio date is very much in the style of the classic mid- to late-'60s soul-jazz sessions. His double-time version of "God Bless the Child" is a bit reminiscent of Richard "Groove" Holmes' hit version of "Misty," and the other standards are all interpreted with swing and soul. Ponder has an appealing sound that blends in ...

James Street

James Street (1997) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

Guitarist Jimmy Ponder is most closely associated with soul-jazz organ groups, so this quartet outing with pianist John Hicks, bassist Dwayne Dolphin and drummer Cecil Brooks III is a happy surprise. During the bop-oriented set, Ponder takes a few numbers (including the opening "JP") unaccompanied, works well with Hicks (with whom he had not ...

by Various Artists

This sampler CD has 11 ballads taken from the Muse catalog that the 32 Jazz label acquired in the mid-1990s.

Somebody's Child

Somebody's Child (2007) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

When you count up the years and numbers, few if any authentic jazz guitarists have sustained as long, consistent, fruitful or interesting a recording career as Ponder. His many efforts for the Muse and High Note labels have set high standards for musicality with integrity, and this recording leaves no doubt as to his continued excellence. This is ...

Alone

Alone (2003) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

This set of unaccompanied guitar solos is quite enjoyable and generally laid-back. Jimmy Ponder had recorded in many settings through the years, but never solo. He emphasizes chords, does not utilize basslines much, and keeps the melodies of the songs nearby. His interpretations are concise and usually at relaxed tempos. The music on Alone can ...

by Various Artists

Jazz That Cooks is a solid sampler of modern-day soul-jazz, funky hard bop, and groove music, featuring artists like Charles Earland, Joey Defrancesco, Teddy Edwards, Irene Reid, Red Holloway, and more. It's pretty consistent throughout, making it a good basic introduction to these artists as well. Steve Huey, All Music Guide

Mean Streets: No Bridges (1987) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

An '87 recording of prototype Ponder; soul jazz and blues played with energy and a slick, yet resourceful conviction. Ponder has never gotten the profile or the exposure he deserves; he doesn't use gimmicks or crank up the volume, but his tasty fills, clever riffs, and crisp, bluesy solos are always worthwhile. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide

Guitar Christmas (1998) more music like this

by Jimmy Ponder

Jazz guitarist Jimmy Ponder attempts to take on several holiday standards on Guitar Christmas. His smooth, light approach is a nice touch, making these songs flow without overloading them with flashy playing. His rendition of Mel Tormé's "Christmas Song" may be the best song on the album, a low-key version that emphasizes the heartfelt sentiment ...
