C-Flat: Thanks for the info...I don't agree completely though, with the statement, "...nor could he make the transition to the electric jazz guitar successfully." Granted he didn't receive much recognition for his electric work nor could he make a commercial success of it(maybe that's what you meant??) but that was at a time when he wasn't really popular anymore anyway. I was just listening to the 2nd disc of the "Peche a la Mouche", 2CD set released on Verve, and his playing there (mainly electric) is still incredible, especially, on Blues for Ike, Nuages, September Song and Night and Day. Anyway thanks again for the info
