Thank you for posting this. Ed Bickert was a great source of inspiration to me, since since first hearing Pure Desmond on KPFK in West LA in 1975. In those days I couldn't afford many records, but that one was a must-have, and it wasn't long before every track was burned into memory.

What I liked about Ed was that he played a Fender Telecaster instead of the typical hollow body electric as most other jazz guitarists would play. :D
Sho-Bud Pro III + Marshall JMP 2204 half stack = good grind!
