For thirty years, Jeff has performed around the world with the instrument in solo concerts and duets with other respected guitarists including jazz legend Jim Hall and Carlos Barbosa-Lima. Linsky has also recorded two Mel Bay instructional DVDs and eight solo CDs, received a nomination for “Contemporary Jazz Album of the Year” (NAIRD), a “Top Ten CD” award in Downbeat Magazine's Critics' Poll and inclusion in Downbeat ‘s “100 Greatest Jazz Albums of All Time”.
