Producer Notes: Joe Diorio - "Creative Jazz"

Without a doubt, Joe Diorio is simply one of the finest jazz guitarist to ever touch the instrument. Joe and I were two of the first instructors at GIT in 1977 and became good friends, playing together whenever possible. No one has inspired my own playing more than Joe. I never tired of listening to him play and tell stories about his early bebop years playing on the East Coast and Europe. If you can ever see Joe play live, DO IT!
Creative Jazz gives you a peek into the genious of Joe Diorio, and the warmth of his teaching. You’ll be inspired with lots of great improvising ideas and techniques to explore. Recommended for knowledgable students looking to widen their horizons.
