Emily Remler, a forgotten jazz guitar legend

Dernière mise à jour : mai 19th, 2019 at 10:22

Her influence ranged from Pat Martino, Wes Montgomery, Charlie Christian to Jimi Hendrix. She evolved from a bebop style to something more personal with strong latin influences.

Discography: http://www.allthingsemily.com/lifeworks/solo-recordings.

My favourite records are « Transition » and « Take two » but they are all worth listening to.

For the guitar players I recommand her two pedagogics videos from « Hot Licks »: « Bebop & Swing Guitar » and « Advanced Latin & Jazz Improvisation ». It´s a good occasion to have a good insight on her playing and on jazz in general.

Some fans have made a very complete site about her where you can find biography, pictures, partitions, discography, interviews and a lot more. Everything is on: http://www.allthingsemily.com.

I hope that this post will make her a little less anonymous this great guitarist who had an amazing swing.
