Joe Pass
Joe Pass (born Joseph Anthony Jacobi Passalacqua, January 13, 1929 – May 23, 1994) was an American virtuoso jazz guitarist of Sicilian descent. He is generally considered to be one of the greatest jazz guitarists of the 20th century. His extensive use of walking basslines, melodic counterpoint during improvisation, use of a chord-melody style of playing and outstanding knowledge of chord inversions and progressions opened up new possibilities for the jazz guitar and had a profound influence on later guitarists.
Early life
Born in New Brunswick, New Jersey, Joe Pass, the son of Mariano Passalacqua, a Sicilian-born steel mill worker, was raised in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. He received his first guitar, a Harmony model bought for $17, on his 9th birthday. Pass' father recognized early that his son had "a little something happening" and pushed him constantly to pick up tunes by ear, play pieces not written specifically for the instrument, practice scales and not to "leave any spaces" - that is, to fill in the sonic space between the notes of the melody.

Famous quotes by Joe Pass:
"If you hit a wrong note, then make it right by what you play afterwards."
"Guitarists should be able to pick up the guitar and play music on it for an hour, without a rhythm section or anything."

It Is Well
by: Joe PaceVerse 1
When peace, like a river
attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say
It is well, it is well, with my soul
Chorus 1
It is well, with my soul
It is well, with my soul
Verse 2
And Lord haste the day when the
faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back
as a scroll
The trumpet shall sound and the
Lord shall descend
Even so it is well with my soul
Chorus 2
It is well, it is well
With my soul, with my soul
It is well, it is well, with my soul
Vamp
It is well, with my soul
