About this album

Late Night Guitar is a graceful showcase for Earl Klugh’s lyrical nylon-string guitar, balancing jazz standards with his own finely shaped compositions. Issued in 1980, the album sits early in the smooth jazz era, when Klugh’s clean tone, melodic economy and understated swing helped make instrumental jazz feel approachable without losing its sophistication. Familiar songs such as Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Laura and Tenderly are reimagined with poise rather than flash, while originals like Mirabella and A Time For Love reinforce his gift for elegant, song-like writing. It remains one of his most accessible and enduring recordings.
