[edit] Something wrong here
I see what the writer is getting at with the bit about jump blues relegating the guitar to the rhythm section, sorta, but didn't T-Bone Walker lay the foundations of modern electric guitar playing in a jump band? Of course, this is a very slim article at this point. I don't think B.B. King ever had a jump band, his was a little later, and always the R&B "big band", four horns and a rhythm section and probably a Hammond organ.Ortolan88 02:56, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
