Even if that doesn't say anything to anyone else here, I'm a bit impressed by that. 

I guess it's rather obscure to most folks. I started as a 2nd Engineer at the Sound Factory in Hollywood in the late 70's. It is/was a pretty famous studio, Linda Ronstadt recorded 5 albums there and I was on sessions with Jackson Browne and Warren Zevon. I moved into post production film mixing after I came to the realization that records would kill me. I got on at Warner Bros. and did many projects there, then on to Fox. I moved from Fox to Group IV which did a lot of subcontract work for Fox and other studios. The Owner was good pals with Joe Pass and I got to meet him several times and chat with him. Truly one in a zillion on Jazz guitar-what a talent!

You have a favorite Joe Pas video, @SierraTango?

Or another with you and your hollow-body doing the (Sierra) Tango?

I had a cup of coffee with her when I was a staff mixer at Group IV recording studios in Hollywood in the late 1980's.

Nice lady. Here's me playing the same tune after a long ride at a friends house...

 

I like the Victorian decor. 
...and the Triumph t-shirt lol

Thanks for posting about Joe Pass, @SierraTango!

Last night I enjoyed reading up on him, especially this UltimateGuitar article with several video links. I especially enjoyed the last one, An Evening with Joe Pass . . .

Very glad you enjoyed Joe's music. As I mentioned I met him at Group IV. One time the owner of the studio and Joe were smoking cigars on a break and I joined the conversation. I told him I played and he nodded at his Gibson ES 175 and said play something. I did and his comment was "...sounds good keep working on it..."

I later studied with Jimmy Bruno in Philly and he is a incredible Jazz player. He was very influenced by Joe Pass.
