Yoshiaki Miyanoue

Yoshiaki Miyanoue is a Japanese jazz guitarist. He was born in Tokyo, Japan, in October 7, 1953. Like Wes Montgomery, who exercised strong influence on Miyanoue, he plucks the strings with his thumb, not using a pick. He worked with organist Jimmy Smith, Dr. Lonnie Smith, drummer Philly Joe Jones, and bassist Andrew Simpkins among others.
