He began his professional career at the age of 19, touring with Buddy Rich.[1] Among his many credits, he is the only guitarist to have ever led Frank Sinatra's band. He played for many years in Los Angeles before returning to the Philadelphia area.
He counts Johnny Smith, Hank Garland, Joe Pass, Tal Farlow, Wes Montgomery, Howard Roberts, Jim Hall, and Pat Martino amongst his influences
(2) One of the finest jazz guitarists in Philadelphia, Jimmy Bruno is a passionate hard bopper who loves to swing aggressively but can be a very sensitive ballad player when he puts his mind to it. The Italian-American was raised in South Philly, where he fell in love with jazz as a kid and took up the guitar at the age of seven. Growing up, he was influenced by such bop guitar greats as Joe Pass, Kenny Burrell, Barney Kessel and Jimmy Raney but also admired the pre-bop work of Eddie Lang, Charlie Christian and Django Reinhart. At 19, Bruno hit the road as a sideman for The Buddy Rich Big Band before ended up spending much of his youth living in the West--where he did a lot of non-jazz gigs in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Although those live and studio pursuits paid the bills for Bruno, he never gave up hard bop and hoped to eventually be a full-time jazz musician. Returning to Philly in 1988, a 35-year-old Bruno was determined to do exactly that even it meant being poor for awhile. An article in the Philadelphia Weekly quoted Bruno as saying that he went from earning several thousand dollars a week in the West to working for minimum wage at "a real dive" in Philly's Fairmount section--but that he was happy and fulfilled because he was playing live jazz five nights a week. Eventually, Bruno was able to give up part-time bartending and concentrate on nothing but playing and teaching jazz. In the early 1990s, he came to the attention of the late Concord Jazz founder/president Carl Jefferson, who was impressed with his playing and signed him to the label. Bruno's first album as a leader, Sleight of Hand, was recorded in 1991, followed by other bop-oriented Concord dates like Burnin' in 1994 and Like That (which featured organist Joey DeFrancesco) in 1995. The late 1990s found Bruno continuing to record for Concord while playing and teaching extensively around Philly. His first Live at Birdland recording appeared in 1997; its sequel, a collaboration with tenor saxophonist Scott Hamilton, followed two years later. Bruno next resurfaced in the spring of 2000 with Polarity. ~ Alex Henderson

A "great artist", like "Jimmy Bruno", you recognize immediately.
A few notes are enough to identify it with reasonable certainty: from the style, performance and interpretation of each piece proposed, from the notes, from the arrangement, from the creativity, from the rhythmic virtuosity and from all those other elements that characterize it as a whole.
Ultimately, by itself, it is a free-wheeling orchestra, which knows no borders or embankments.
It is a "river in flood" that overwhelms everything and everyone, in a rhythmic tide of musical notes that arouse, in the listener, that natural and universal feeling of the soul which is called "emotion".
So beautiful !!
It is a Grande, a "milestone" to be sculpted "in the Firmament of the Great Artists of Jazz."
My congratulations, with ten out of ten

Un "grande artista", come "Jimmy Bruno", lo riconosci immediatamente.
Bastano poche note per identificarlo con ragionevole certezza: dallo stile, dall'esecuzione e dall'interpretazione di ogni pezzo proposto, dalle note, dall'arrangiamento, dalla creatività, dal virtuosismo ritmico e da tutti gli altri elementi che lo caratterizzano nel suo insieme!!.
In ultima analisi, ,Jimmy Bruno, da solo, è un'orchestra a ruota libera,un fiume in piena che non conosce limiti, né argini.
È un "fiume in piena" che travolge tutto e tutti, in una marea travolgente e ritmata di note musicali che suscitano, in chi lo ascolta, , quel sentimento naturale e universale dell'anima chiamato "emozione".
Ma che bravo, anzi di più!!
È una Grande Artista, un Big del Jazz, , una pietra miliare da scolpire nel Firmamento Musicale dei Grandi Artisti del Jazz di tutti i tempi!!
Le mie congratulazioni, con dieci e lode.
