New book from Randy Vincent!

I think it is safe to say that Randy Vincent has become the world's foremost authority on learning to play jazz guitar. With his latest release, "The Guitarist's Introduction to Jazz," he has created a reference book that someone who plays guitar but wants to learn jazz will find most useful. His book's webpage gives all the particulars but here I would just like to say that Randy is a unique kind of genius, if I may use that sometimes abused term. Randy is a practicing fool and his personal submersion in mastering the craft of jazz guitar makes him a pleasure to play music with (which I have had the honor of doing for many years now) and also an invaluable member of the jazz guitar community, via the medium of his method books and his personal one-on-one teaching. Out just in time for Christmas or Chanukkah presents this year, it will be of great use to guitar teachers as well as individuals for self-study. Many thanks to one of the great musical minds of our time, Randy Vincent, for giving us the honor of publishing his books!
