Compared to that of later players using an electrically amplified guitar (e.g., Charlie Christian), Lang's sound was thin and crisp. He recorded “Somebody's Got To Go” in 1941. Like all jazz masters, he had his unique sound. Gleason, Wes expressed just how strong Christian's influence was on him. Is there a distinct melodic difference (single or chordal lines) between swing era styles of guitar (Charlie Christian, Django, Oscar Moore, etc) versus players who began thriving in the bebop era (Kenny Burrell, Grant Green, Wes to say, but forgot), that bebop was in fact the start of jazz becoming "an art form", more intellectual and sadly less popular and NOT made for dancing.

It might seriously be the only genuinely American art form thus far. Wes was an extension of the late great jazz guitarist Charlie Christian, who played with saxophone-like single note fluidity. Charlie Christian, (Charles Henry Christian) (29 July 1916 – 2 March 1942) was an American swing and bebop jazz guitarist. The more interesting change happened later. Christian was an important early performer on the electric guitar, and is By 1936, he was playing electric guitar and had become a regional attraction, and jammed with many of the big name performers traveling through Oklahoma City, among them Teddy Wilson and Art Tatum. Consider Barney Kessel and Charlie Christian, two true jazz guitar giants.
