Additional Information
Stanley Jordan is a California-born prodigy known for his special 'tapping' technique on the guitar's fret board instead of conventional strumming and picking. This technique allows him to play chords and melody at the same time. Jordan remains the foremost exponent of the technique as the basis for personal musical expression, rather than just a special effect. came to prominence with the release of his 1985 debut album Magic Touch, a revolutionary project that dually placed him at the forefront of re-launching legendary Blue Note Records into a contemporary entity in jazz and beyond, as well as establishing the then-twenty-something Jordan as among the most distinctive and refreshing new voices of the electric guitar. The album became a gold-seller (over 500,000 sold) - outstanding for any jazz or instrumental CD. Jordan's trio includes Charnett Moffett on bass and Kenwood Dennard on drums.
