The name Barney Kessel is virtually synonymous with "great guitarist." As Leonard Feather has written, "Kessel is not only as lyrical a guitarist as we have in jazz today, but also a rhythmic natural who can out swing any man in the house." But as Kessel points out, the instrument is merely the tool of the artist. "The music," he says, "is not in the guitar, it’s in the person." Whether in his earlier incarnations as a sideman (with Lester Young, Oscar Peterson, Hampton Hawes, Stephane Grappelli, and others), a studio session player (for radio, television, and film), a member of the Great Guitars, or as a leader himself, Kessel has dedicated himself to getting the music out in the purest and most honest form possible. Released as part of the Acoustic Sounds Series celebrating 70 years of Contemporary Records, The Poll Winners brings together the talents of Barney Kessel (Guitar), Shelly Manne (Drums) and Ray Brown (Bass). First released in 1957 and recorded by legendary engineer Roy DuNann this new edition features remastered audio from the original tapes.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
