Lorne Lofsky is a living legend, having toured and recorded with Oscar Peterson, Joey DeFrancesco and…Chet Baker!
He is also perhaps more widely known in guitar circles as working and recording with the great Ed Bickert (guitarist with Paul Desmond).
Nigel Price is one of the most highly regarded and in demand guitarists on the UK jazz scene today. He spent three years with UK funk legends – the James Taylor Quartet, was voted No.1 in the 2016 British Jazz Awards for “best guitarist” and is a longstanding regular performer at Ronnie Scott’s.
It would be hard to think of two jazz guitarists with more contrasting approaches to their instruments than Nigel Price and Lorne Lofsky. Price revels in a bebop driven world laced with blues that has its roots in Wes Montgomery, Joe Pass and Kenny Burrell. Lofsky, on the other hand, plays fingerstyle which gives his playing a more pianistic quality. If one imagines what Bill Evans would sound like on guitar, he would probably sound something like Lorne Lofsky. – UK Jazz News
