Shining Hour
1990 studio album by Larry Coryell
Shining Hour is an album by guitarist Larry Coryell which was recorded in 1989 and released on the Muse label.[ 1] [ 2]
Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Larry Coryell will always be best known for arguably being the first fusion guitarist, but his career has been quite wide-ranging ever since the late '60s. On Shining Hour , he mostly sticks to jazz standards ... Coryell, whose playing works well in this (for him) rare setting although he is not really a boppish improviser".[ 3]
