The Incredible Jazz Guitar of Wes Montgomery

~ Release by Wes Montgomery (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

This release should not be confused with the original 1960 studio album of the same name by Wes Montgomery. This is a live album culled from two 1965 shows - one on February 2, 1965 at the Half Note (New York City) with Harold Mabern, and the other from Hamburg in April 1965, with Martial Solal & Johnny Griffin. The listing for this release on Amazon.com includes the track listing from the 1960 Riverside LP, which is incorrect.
