LIBRO
The Jazz Stylings of Howard Roberts
consists of transcriptions of melody, solo, comping examples and
ensemble passages from Howard's extensive solo albums spanning from
the '50's to the '70's in accurate detail. There is a bio of HR (as
he was affectionately known to all of his acquaintances and fans)
with personal comments from Pete Jolly, well known LA jazz and studio
pianist who was best friends with Howard going back to their early
days in Phoenix. An extensive section covers the history and
development of the Epiphone© and Gibson© signature guitars
that Howard created along with the Benson® amp story, which is
told by Howard's original partner, Ron Benson, the first of the
'boutique' amplifier companies, so common today. Along the way,
Howard's involvement with guitar education and publishing is
described culminating in the opening of the Guitar Institute of
Technology (now the Musicians Institute) in 1977. A discography of
Howard's solo albums as well as the key hit records he played on and
a list of the major motion picture soundtracks he participated in as
a studio musician in Los Angeles are also included. PAGES 112.
