About this album
Midnight Blue is Kenny Burrell’s best-known album and a landmark of soul-jazz guitar. Recorded in 1963, it set Burrell’s refined tone and blues-rooted phrasing against a relaxed, late-night groove that made sophisticated jazz feel immediately accessible. The title track and Chittlins Con Carne became enduring favourites, while the album’s calm assurance helped define an entire mood in 1960s jazz. With its understated elegance and strong melodic writing, Midnight Blue remains one of Burrell’s most celebrated statements and a key bridge between hard bop, blues and soul-jazz.
