Nathen Page's Page 1, 1977, by request

 





Basic jazz guitar from this artist who made 3 LPs back in the day.

Nathen Page (1937-2003) was an American jazz guitarist.

Originally from West Virginia, Page moved to Washington, D.C. where he played in rock bands before joining Jimmy Smith's band from 1965 to 1970. He then worked with artists such as Herbie Mann, Roberta Flack and Jackie McLean in the early ’70s, and played frequently with Sonny Rollins in the second half of the decade. In 1980 Page settled in Orlando, Fla., where he founded a label, Hugo's Music, led a local jazz quartet and hosted a radio program.

  3. @Nico, I don’t have any of Nathan’s other albums, but here’s nice one by saxophonist René McLean [Jackie McLean’s son] featuring Nathan on guitar:

    René McLean - Watch Out (Steeplechase, 1975)

    Hope you’ll like it.

    @ Julian, would you ok with me sharing your Zippy link for Page 1 as bait to see if I can snag some additional Nathan? I’m with Nico, he’s a really nice guitarist. Let me know either way. thanks.

    In the meantime, here’s a nice 25+ minute clip of Nathan in action w/ Jimmy Smith;

    2. I'll post anything I come across here. After I posted the McLean album, I notice the song Watch Out was on both releases. On his album, Nathan get the composer credit, on Rene's album the same tune is credited to Rene McLean. Nathan takes the lead solo on both, so I have to believe it was his composition. I wonder if that became an issue back then?
