Guitariste universellement connu pour sa participation à des centaines de disques enregistrés par les artistes les plus illustres - de Charlie Parker à Julie London et Oscar Peterson en passant par Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan et Fred Astaire - Barney Kessel a longtemps représenté une sorte de modèle de guitariste de jazz. Il manifestait au plus haut point d'immenses qualités d'improvisateur, développant un discours plein d'invention, superbement articulé et équilibré, et délivré avec grand swing, à l'image de son premier maître, Charlie Christian. Son élégance, tant en solo qu'à l'accompagnement, le beau « voicing » de ses accords et son talent d'arrangeur font de ses enregistrements personnels réunis ici les précieux témoignages de l'épanouissement d'un grand talent qui savait s'entourer d'idéaux complices. À cet égard, la lecture de la discographie a des allures de gotha californien.
